This property was so clean. It was fully equipped with everything we needed for a week long family getaway. We especially appreciated the beach towels and chairs. This really is a special place with everything needed for a great beach experience. The host was so attentive! The local beach was perfect for quick trips to the beach. Centrally located to everything! We hope to stay here again!!

It was a perfect house for 6 adults and 2 children. Plenty of room for all to spread out and the location with a quick drive to Rocky Gap Beach was great. The kids loved the beach(their first time at a beach). Have the beach chairs and towels was a wonderful bonus....thank you!

This home is one of the best I have ever stayed in. It’s beautiful, very well kept, quiet, comfortable and the host was warm and welcoming. We love to cook and this kitchen has every single gadget and tool you could ever need, as well as high end appliances. The beds are so comfortable we actually slept in every morning! Wish I could rate it higher than 5 stars. We will definitely check here first for our future trips.

Great family get away

We played pickle ball, went to nearby beaches and hung around with the family by the fire pit and cooked all our meals in a well equipped kitchen. The place was very clean and the owner was wonderful to work with.

The home was beautiful and clean. It was close to St. Joseph and the beaches. The kitchen was fully stocked with all accessories needed for our meals and the owner was quick to respond to any questions we had. We loved having 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms for 6 adults and 2 toddlers. Toys, beach chairs, and beach towels were provided. Would definitely stay here again! Everyone loved it!!!!

Benton Harbor stay

We enjoyed our stay at Kristi’s place in Benton Harbor! The house was perfect for our 2 families to stay together. The kids enjoyed the downstairs TV and activity room. We all appreciated the beautiful kitchen, large yard, and comfortable bedrooms! The location was close to multiple beaches in the area, which was the focus of our summer weekend trip.
