When we walk into a new place we’re always afraid it’s not going to look like the pictures….this place was just like the pictures. Beautiful!! Clean! Also, the water pressure was AMAZING! The grounds were so nice, and we loved the walking path. We also loved being able to walk to the close beach and Silver beach was a short drive. Communication was quick. I would definitely recommend this place to stay.

Great all around spot for a Michigan get away. Location, communication, listing and nearby activities were right on target for any type of traveler. Lots of options - golf, walk/drive to beach, walking trails, patio sitting, kayaking, blueberry picking and everything in between. Host communication was top notch and timely. Already looking forward to a return visit.

Loved our stay at Beachwood Bliss!! The host is prompt, kind and answered all questions. It was an easy walk to Jean Klock Beach. St Joe was a quick 5 minute drive and had so many great restaurants. Perfect location!! There were 6 adults and a toddler and we all were very comfortable. The fact that each bedroom had it's own bathroom plus a half bath on the lower level was amazing. My daughter loved all of the toys and we were so grateful for all of the beach supplies!! This house is stocked! Highly recommend!

Great house in a perfect location

We stayed here for a girls’ weekend (teens and moms). There was plenty of space and the house was exactly as shown in the pictures. We loved being walking distance to the beach and a short drive to either St. Joseph or Benton Harber. We would stay here again!

We had the absolute BEST time! The house was beautiful, so clean and homey. We needed something super family friendly as we have 3 little boys and it did not disappoint! They had games and kids toys inside, but also plenty of toys to bring to the beach. The owners really thought of everything! We hope to come back and stay again.

Beachside stay

house was clean and and a great location. It had everything you needed for our group from kids to adults. Hosts were great and professional. Neighbors were meddlesome but overall great area. Fun to say hi to the golfers coming through and walk to the beach.

Our stay was wonderful. The 3 1/2 baths are a lifesaver for many adults getting ready to go out at the same time. We never ran out of hot water and had great water pressure. A very very nice touch is the essentials that were already there, such as toilet paper, kitchen soaps, and trash bags. The beds were very comfortable. The neighbors were very nice as well. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.

Bliss at Beachwood Bliss!

We stayed 3 nights for Labor Day weekend. House was very clean and well stocked. Loved that it had 3 1/2 bathrooms and 2 King size bed en suite bedrooms with another sleeping area in the basement. We had a great time. Great proximity to beach and town. Owners very helpful with suggestions. Hope to stay again soon!
