Awesome vacation rental
Our stay at this waterfront cottage was awesome! The house was well stocked with dishes, silverware, pots and pans and small kitchen appliances. The location was perfect, right on the Paw Paw River. There were kayaks and a paddle board which our kids and grandkids enjoyed using. Since we are avid walkers, we loved all the sidewalks in the neighborhood. The house was very clean and so well laid out. That all ten of us could eat together was a great plus. No complaints from us - this house was perfect. Be sure to take the pedestrian bridge to visit Clifford’s Coffee Canal. It quickly became a favorite with us.

Perfect spot on the river
If you’re looking to vacation in SW Michigan, look no further. This home is beautiful, incredibly well equipped, and the hosts couldn’t have been nicer. You really only need to pack your clothes because the house has EVERYTHING you need for a lake trip — beach towels, beach toys and chairs, kayaks, and a stocked kitchen and bathrooms. It’s by far the most visitor-friendly rental home I’ve ever stayed in. The location is also wonderful. The house sits right on the river, and the development has a pool a few houses down and other great features. Plus, you’re a very quick drive to the beach and downtown St. Joe. A few added perks: gas fireplaces inside and on the porch, a grill, TVs in every bedroom, and awesome water pressure in the showers after a beach day!

Amazing house on the river
We loved this house - it was like they thought of everything you might need. I have stayed in many houses that said they have towels and things for the beach but this house was completely stocked up. They had at least 8 huge beach towels, multiple (nice) beach chairs, umbrellas, blankets etc. the kitchen was FULLY stocked. The TVs worked great and anytime we had a question we got an answer right away. The pool was a lot of fun for the kids. The house is technically w/in walking distance of downtown (we did it one night). Do have to walk on the bridge which can have a lot of traffic. Extremely close to Tiscornia and Jean Klock beach which are our two favorite beaches! Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

About the host

Hosted by Joel Kruggel

Host profile image
Having grown up in St. Joseph, my career took our family from Santa Barbara to Boston. We always dreamed of retiring to St. Joseph and came back home in 2018. After creating an Inn on the Maine coast, we were eager to host people at a high quality home in St. Joseph. When Water's Edge Cottage became available, we jumped at the chance to own and operate an exceptional, waterfront property in one of St. Joe's best locales.

Why they chose this property

Waters Edge Cottage is part of Harbor Village, which is nestled along the Paw Paw River and the St. Joseph Harbor. With a major hotel, world-class marina, and proximity to the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course at Harbor Shores; this is the perfect setting for a vacation home in St. Joe. The home itself commands outstanding views of the Paw Paw and St. Joe rivers. It is spacious with a two story great room, four bedrooms, sunroom, gourmet kitchen, and patio.

What makes this property unique

-proximity to area beaches: 3 minutes by car
-easy walk to downtown St. Joseph
-fish or kayak right off our front yard
-wonderful community pool and clubhouse just behind our home
-full service hotel in Harbor Village with restaurant, spa, outdoor dining
-boat rentals within 3 minutes at Bluewater Boat Rentals at Anchors Way Marina
featuring jet skis, speedboats, pontoon boats and cabin cruisers
-Harbor Village is a new, planned community with high end single family homes and condominiums on the waterfront. On site marina, Freedom Boat Club, restaurant, and a
community pool complex are all part of Harbor Village.
