This was a great place to stay for the holiday weekend. The location was just perfect (10 mins to St. Joseph, 30 mins to New Buffalo, and approx. 50 mins to Saugatuck) and even though it rained a couple of the mornings, the evenings were nice enough to walk to the lake (a whole 3 mins!) and enjoy the view.

St. Joseph MI, Our happy place

The house we rented was a beautiful location with lakeside views. Great neighborhood for walking. The house was well stocked with paper products, towels, soaps and cleaning supplies. The host treated us to delicious cookies and a birthday cake for my husband. We had 6 adults and two children. Enough room for all of us. Would definitely stay again.

Very Cozy Cottage!

Great location and super responsive owner. The set up of the house was great for our family to gather to celebrate Christmas (8 ppl). Lots of extra blankets, homemade cookies and they even put up a Christmas tree! The downfall for us was that we checked in around 6pm and it was 50 degrees in the house. We ate dinner wrapped in blankets and wore our jackets to stay warm. It reached acceptable temperature close to midnight. Greg was super responsive and we were so appreciative of his communication. The only other downfall was the cleanliness of the floors - they could use some attention. Despite the negatives, we would still recommend this place!

It was perfect!

It was just as described in the listing. The location was terrific, with a view of the water from the dining area, a nice size back deck with grill and located in a very nice neighborhood. Close to all we wanted to do in St. Joseph. The house had everything we needed with a well stocked kitchen, and in the basement we found beach towels and some sand toys for the granddaughter. Some nice extra touches too with beautiful fresh flowers on the dining table and a large container of delicious chocolate chip cookies on the kitchen table. The owner was great with staying in touch and answering any questions I had before our arrival. Instructions for entering the house were clear and arrived in a timely manner, and nice clear instructions on the checkout procedure was left right where we could find them. We had a wonderful stay and I would definitely recommend this property!

Cute Cottage with a Great Location

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was perfect for family dinners and game nights. We loved that we could walk down the street to view the sunset every night. The house was clean and the property manager was excellent at communicating with us. It was close to the beach and downtown and was kid-friendly. We definitely recommend the cottage and look forward to renting it again.
