Great little place for 2-3 people. Nice private lot surrounded by trees. The home and yard are very dog-friendly, and we were very comfortable during our stay. Close to restaurants and other attractions. We enjoyed our time in Benton Harbor and would choose the container home again when back in town.
The rental was just as advertise PLUS some! Communication with the owner was prompt and answered any and all questions! The place is very well taken care of and it was a perfect weekend getaway!
