The house was conveniently located near beaches at St. Joe and South Haven. There was also a smaller beach area about 5 minutes away. The hosts provided useful and fun games and beach accessories, including a foosball table. We enjoyed our stay :)
A wonderful stay for the whole familyWe had a fantastic time at this vacation home. It was spotless from the moment we walked in — everything felt well cared for and truly move-in ready. The space was comfortable and clearly set up with families in mind, so we never had to worry about a thing.What really stood out were the little extra touches — the kind of details that show the hosts genuinely care about their guests’ experience. They made the whole stay feel more thoughtful and personal than your average rental.We’d happily stay here again and would recommend it to any family looking for a clean, comfortable, welcoming home away from home.
Great location between St. Joe and South Haven. Numerous beaches to visit although parking at the beaches was chaotic. Loved all the amenities and cleanliness this property had to offer.

We loved this place! Had plenty of space for 4 adults and 5 children. So close to several beaches, including Silver Beach, and they had great recommendations for us posted in the house so we discovered a new beach we had never been to before. Lots of seating inside and the kids loved all the games and foosball table!

We enjoyed our stay as three young families all sharing the same house. The set up was great! We especially enjoyed the fenced in backyard for our kids to run around and play in. We would certainly recommend staying here!

My family of four had an amazing holiday and enjoyed plenty of hiking and hanging out the numerous beaches. The house was both modern and cozy and was stocked with plenty of board-games and a fire pit. A wonderful escape.

Home was cute and clean. It was very close to Silver Beach and Rocky Gap. We also drove to check out Saugatuck Dunes, 40 minute away. We would definitely recommend to stay!
Our family enjoyed our stay. It was close to the beaches we wanted to go to and the amount of living space worked well for us. Our grand children liked playing in the back yard.

Easy to get to, very clean, and well maintained!
Some of my favorite things about the house were: the sunroom/game room with plenty of puzzles and games, the large upgraded kitchen with plenty of seating, king beds, beach chairs and fire pit!
Thank you, we loved it!

Thank you Claire for your review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay! ❤️
This was the perfect place for a small bachelorette. It was both charming and modern! Julie was so sweet from the beginning. We could not have chosen a better place to stay!
Had a great comfortable stay. Property had everything we needed. Responses from owner were prompt and helpful. She even allowed relatives staying at a hotel to visit and park on the property.
We really enjoyed our stay here! Everything was well maintained and clean. The “extras” (pack and play, beach chairs, wagon, s’mores, games, toys, etc) provided were also so nice! Julie was extremely responsive as well. Overall, it was great!

My husband and my daughter and her family all enjoyed this lovely home. It is well stocked with amenities to make our stay even more comfortable. One minor issue was quickly resolved and the owner was extremely helpful! The location is minutes from the beach and downtown St Joseph.

Beautiful and very comfortable house. The owner answered questions fast. Great location and quick trip to downtown and the beach! Everyone loved it. We will be back!😊
Excellent house within easy driving distance of beaches and restaurants.
Nice 3 bedroom house about 10 minutes from multiple beach options and good restaurants in a town that is easy to get around in. Communication with host was excellent and checkin/checkout very easy. Made for a very relaxing vacation. Full kitchen if you wanted to make some food yourself. There was also a very nice fenced in backyard with areas for a campfire, blackberry bushes, and a little trail through the woods which our kids loved. There were several good areas to play board games and card games after we got back in the evening.

In some areas (Kitchen-refrigerator, etc.), the property was not clean. Were not provided bar soap, paper towels, or napkins. Overall, though, a good property to stay at.

Thank you! My cleaning team had a mix up of days of arrival. I called Douglas immediately and asked him if I can get him anything and if I can come in to put the last few things away. The property was completely cleaned by our cleaning team, they just needed some supplies added. asked him what was needed and if I can come in to the property to review and he said they were fine. I did drop off napkins, paper towel, a bottle of wine and extra toilet paper. They were be dry clean guests and I would recommend renting to them again. ❤️ Julie
