Great stay! Loved all of the extras….beach umbrella, beach chairs, beach cart, beach towels and sand toys! You really thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. The toy/game closet and arcade game were a big hit with my grandson! Thank you for making a chill getaway for us!!!

Great location

The location of this ranch home is wonderful. Quiet neighborhood with walk/bike path across the street. Just minutes away from St. Joe beaches and lighthouses. Our family had a great time, and the grandkids (and adults) enjoyed the pac-man arcade game!

Great hosts, house and location

Our family of four stayed here for four nights and had a wonderful time. The house was clean and in a great location. We loved the close proximity to the beaches and the binder of recommendations and things to do. Thanks to that binder, we discovered some new favorites and things to do that we wouldn’t have tried otherwise. Kelly was very communicative and the check in and out process was super easy. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Great Homebase for Lake Vacation

Montes Dunes was a wonderful home base for our stay. The place has the perfect location to pop into town or even have a nice relaxing night in on the patio. This trip we were just my wife, our son, and I. We did have some family come visit but they just stayed during the day and they said the place was great as well. The host packed everything as needed for a perfect lake day as well as all the little things like games and the Pac-Man machine was a hit with our son. Wonderful place to call home for our week-long trip. She even left a log with lots of local info. This place is truly amazing and we would stay here again on our next trip.

Benton Harbor/St. Joseph Trip

First family vacation for us where it was just our family. The house was perfect for us! It was clean, kid friendly, and even had household items and pantry staples! Super close to beautiful beaches and right across the road to a trailhead that you could walk, hike, or bike!
