This place was great. The river for evening hang outs was really nice and the large tv room with the sofa was perfect for our family. The host was great with communication and the property is nice. It’s a more affordable option if you are visiting anywhere in the area. I grew up in up in st. Joe and my mom’s place is too small to hold all our family anymore. I would definitely stay at this property again.

Home was clean, spacious and kitchen well equipped for a group or family. Love that they had a lot of bath towels. Only suggestion would be to perhaps have a couple extra pillows and blankets available (we have kids who like to couch rot & one who wanted an extra blanket on his bed). Host was easy to communicate with and offered great local suggestions. Very comfortable home to spend a relaxing vacation / week / weekend in. So nice to spend quiet mornings and evenings on the water.

This home was absolutely wonderful in every way and perfect for a family vacation! It is beautiful and extremely clean. So much space to spread out and move around. It was so relaxing to be able to sit outside by the river. The neighbor is very nice and quiet. Since it is a dead end street, there is not much traffic. I took a walk up and down the street each morning and the neighbors I encountered were very friendly. I communicated a few times with James and he was so kind. Definitely would recommend staying here!

We were in town for my son's wedding in Benton Harbor. We loved our mornings in front of the floor to ceiling windows in the living room watching the fog come off the river and morning coffee. We slept great in the master bedroom and had an overall great stay.

The property was beautiful, well appointed kitchen, very clean! A family favorite was to just watch the river go by out the beautiful windows! It soon became a favorite of our dog and grandson too! This property is close to shopping and attractions yet in a quiet neighborhood! About 20 minutes from Silver Beach County Park in Saint Joseph, a great way to spend a day!
