Our time in St Joseph

This property gives easy access to St Joseph and Benton harbor. Both areas have a lot to offer: dining, shopping, beaches, and more. The house is very comfortable and provided for all our needs. We greatly enjoyed the back porch.

Lovely Family & Friends Stay

Four adults and kids under 10 stayed in this house for four days/3 nights. It was lovely. The kids really enjoyed the basement playroom/bunkroom. The adults really enjoyed the quiet and nearby living room. It was so easy to be near and enjoy quiet space in this home. Thank you for the stay, Beachwood Bliss!!!

Great Home and Great Location

We loved our stay! The listing is exactly as advertised. Beautiful home, close to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Our daughter loved her bed and all of the closet space. My husband appreciated all of the details from the fully wired home, well stocked kitchen to beach chairs and toys. We will definitely book again when in the area.

Family Fun

This house is fantastic! It's location is just a short walk from the beach. The house was clean and Justin has thought of everything you need. We had a toddler and there was a highchair and pack-n-play ready for us to use. I rent VRBO's all the time and if there is every more than 2 people stay with us, we have to but more supplies (PT, garbage bags, soap, etc.), but there was plenty on hand here. The kitchen was also well supplied, with nice pots and pans. I will say that there's only room for a compact car in the garage and only one car in the driveway, however, there's another lot that you can park in if you have more cars.

Our stay was wonderful. The 3 1/2 baths are a lifesaver for many adults getting ready to go out at the same time. We never ran out of hot water and had great water pressure. A very very nice touch is the essentials that were already there, such as toilet paper, kitchen soaps, and trash bags. The beds were very comfortable. The neighbors were very nice as well. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.

We had the absolute BEST time! The house was beautiful, so clean and homey. We needed something super family friendly as we have 3 little boys and it did not disappoint! They had games and kids toys inside, but also plenty of toys to bring to the beach. The owners really thought of everything! We hope to come back and stay again.

Great Property, Great Communication, Very Close to the Beach

Beachwood Bliss is a fantastic stay and very close to Silver Beach. Our family really enjoyed the 2 primary bedrooms on the 2nd floor and our kids loved the basement bunks! Plenty of bathrooms for all guests. Justin was very communicative. The garage is well stocked with beach gear! We would absolutely stay here again!

Great house in a perfect location

We stayed here for a girls’ weekend (teens and moms). There was plenty of space and the house was exactly as shown in the pictures. We loved being walking distance to the beach and a short drive to either St. Joseph or Benton Harber. We would stay here again!

Bliss at Beachwood Bliss!

We stayed 3 nights for Labor Day weekend. House was very clean and well stocked. Loved that it had 3 1/2 bathrooms and 2 King size bed en suite bedrooms with another sleeping area in the basement. We had a great time. Great proximity to beach and town. Owners very helpful with suggestions. Hope to stay again soon!

Family Visit

This property was perfect for the 5 of us sleeping there plus multiple visitors over for dinner and drinks. Parking was a bit of an issue for visitors but the overflow parking area accommodated us for the most part. The grill was wonderful and the kitchen had everything we needed. Our son especially enjoyed his “own room” in the lower level. We liked that each bedroom had en suite baths. This property is close to many attractions like Silver Beach, Tiscornia Park, Rocky Gap, Harbor Shores Golf Course and downtown St Joe where we enjoyed shopping and lunch. Overall we would definitely recommend this property for smaller groups or families.

A blissful thumbs-up

We were wowed with the accommodation at Beachwood Bliss. Very well-appointed with a multitude of water accessories and toys for all ages (even books!). The beds & pillows were extremely comfortable. The rear porch opens into a large nature area that makes the small yard feel very spacious and safe for the young ones. And we could wave at the occasional golfers joyfully traveling from hole 5 to 6. Both adjoining neighbors were very friendly and told us to ask any questions we wanted. You have to be a bit creative with the limited parking, but it all worked out. The owner was very responsive to any issues. All-in a great experience.
