The house itself is beautifully decorated, and well stocked! My young children loved running around the home exploring all the rooms and finding all the fun things there were to discover, like a jacuzzi tub (not a hot tub like the description says), puzzles, a tent, and fun outdoor games! The kitchen had everything we needed, and even had a grill with all the appropriate grilling tools. The home has nice outdoor seating, is very well laid out, clean, well stocked, close to the beach, very kid and pet friendly, and the host was super nice and very communicative. We definitely plan on coming back! My family and I couldn't be happier with our experience!

About the host
Hosted by Christina Johnson
Hey there, wanderlust seekers! New to the Airbnb hosting scene but bursting with enthusiasm! I'm an Illinois native with a heart drawn to the sandy shores of Lake Michigan and the sun-kissed summers of Southwest Michigan. I love owning a slice of heaven in Southwest Michigan.
Join me on a journey of discovery and relaxation – where the city skyline view meets the tranquil waves. Let's make your stay as vibrant as the Chicago city lights across the lake and as refreshing as a dip in Lake Michigan! You'll never be at loss for things to do in the area!
Why they chose this property
Location, Location, Location! I love this part of Southwest Michigan. You can still quickly be in the "busy" parts of the area like Benton Harbor, New Buffalo, Michigan City and Indiana Dunes & Warren Dunes state parks. But this stretch of I-94 & Red Arrow highway are a little quieter, with great restaurants, shopping and close to the smaller downtowns. Some of my favorites are, Sawyer, Bridgeman, Three Oaks and Stevensville.
What makes this property unique
Easy to get to, and close to everything. The home is decorated tastefully, has plenty of space with it's open concept, and well appointed with just about anything you need in the kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and laundry area. I am a frequent traveler and tried to keep in mind the amenities I look for/ desire in a stay- and I've brought them to this property.
