The house was beautiful and stocked with all you would need. The kids spent lots of time in the pool and a quiet beach was only 2 miles down the road. In the area, we kayaked, paddle boarded, bowled and found a couple of great restaurants. But the cherry on top was the sunset. Every evening we gathered in the great room and watched the sun go down. The kids said it was the best Michigan vacation we've every had. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f986cff9-e9e3-460e-b35f-f65222a41518-1754168327007.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Grace L.

The property manager, Chris, was very helpful and easy to communicate with. We immediately noticed the house was much cleaner than the previous visit. Chris attributed this to hiring a new cleanup crew. There is a public beach very close to the house and we spent a few mornings-afternoons there. The pool was in great shape and got plenty of use as well. We look forward to returning. ##### Dave N. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer R.

Chris got us checked in promptly and responded quickly when the toaster broke down. When we stayed in, the place had all we needed. When we wanted to go out, great towns were within 30 or minutes.

Everything we needed for the pool and beach was supplied: beach towels, beach chairs, pool toys. Chris our property manager responded immediately when we had any questions.

Mornings and evenings in the pool, afternoons at the beach nearby, movie nights in the screened porch and sunsets at the fire pit looking over Lake Michigan.

Our combined family group of 11 loved staying at the house over the Thanksgiving holiday! We had such a lovely time and were all able to share the holiday together. Kitchen is well equipped. Fireplace worked great. We loved having a couple of living room/lounge areas so adults, kids and grandparents all had room to relax together or separate if desired. Beds were comfy and overall the place was really great! We all mentioned that we'd love to come back in the summer to visit the lakefront a bit more, so we'll have to try and make that happen! ##### Erin K.

Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nancy R. Aug 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Amazing quiet location between St. Jo and S. Haven. Close to beaches, parks. View, sunsets, back porch are best part! We had an amazing week and will be back! Feel that we paid a premium price so a few things could be improved. Needs a deep clean (socks, feet filthy) Before arrival a good clean of outside space, chairs, porch needed. We were told there would be beach chairs and there was none and anything for pool use was not clean or usable. Need more beach towels, bath towels. Covers for outdoor furnture needed and a small blower on site for guests to use. Kitchen was well stocked but needs a good purge/organization. Every closet/drawer needs organization/purge, lightbulbs changed etc. A pack n play/highchair would be so helpful for families. 5th bedroom is a den (sleeper sofa) with the only TV on 1st floor so not the most pratical (suggest a TV on cart so can move to porch etc.). For the price, bedrooms should have a TV. Had a leak in FR that host seemed to know about so prob should be fixed. Pool is amazing but gets dirty very quickly with all the trees etc. Def. needs to be cleaned more than once a week when guests are there. Only has sunlight from 11-3. ##### Nancy R.

We loved the property! Spacious, clean, and comfortable with lavish bedding and interiors. The game room was a bonus for lively ping pong matches and watching the game on the large screen TV with space for the whole group (or most of it) to cheer on Michigan (sorry Phil). The sunsets over Lake Michigan were spectacular! The pool was a lovely 82 degrees and though it was colder outside we had a comfortable sunset swim. With tons of local restaurants (Silver Brewing Company and The Market), wineries (Lazy Ballerina), Silver Beach, sightseeing, and shopping, we found something for everyone in our group to enjoy. Thanks, Chris, for all of your recommendations and for helping make our stay a satisfying success. ##### Phil E. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ima J.

Chris was flexible in allowing us to check in early as my toddler has a pretty firm nap schedule. The house is fully stocked with everything a family could need. We enjoyed the 3 season room so much and were able to use the fireplace every night and enjoy the sunsets over the lake. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to have had that time with my family, and how comfortable and seamless the entire experience was because of Chris’s help and guidance along the way. Thank you, Chris, for giving my family and I the space we needed to really restore over the long weekend at this very special home. ##### Ima J.

Sunsets were truly a wonder to behold. We had 13 folks from age 4 to 53, and six 18 to 21 year olds. Property comfortably fit us all. Evenings were great, we could retire to beautiful screened in porch and still enjoy the sunsets and evenings. Heated pool was a hit as it provided hours of enjoyment throughout the day. Kitchen was stocked where we could buy plenty of food and make delicious home cooked meals for 13. Would definitely rent again. Fun Warren Dunes State Park and beautiful South Haven within 30 minute drive of property. ##### Nathan H.

I will start with the excellent property manager, Chris. He was very concise with explaining the "dos and don'ts" of the property, how to care for the pool and fireplaces. He responded very quickly to any questions/concerns. The house is so beautiful with such attention to detail and high end everything...furniture, beds/mattresses, artwork, decor, fully stocked kitchen, stone fireplaces, large and comfy enclosed screened in porch with stone gas/wood fireplace where we spent a lot of time. The heated pool and patio were very relaxing with stunning views of the lake and breathtaking sunsets. It is exactly as pictured and worth every penny...sleeps a lot of people comfortably and the 4 full baths were a bonus for all of our family that stayed to get ready for our niece's wedding. Just perfect! Will try to plan our next reunion here! ##### Laurie L. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruth F.

It was so spacious, clean, and comfortable. The picture do not even do the place justice, it is so much better in person. The layout is really open providing space for everyone to hang out with good sight lines. All the furniture is clean and comfortable, the beds and sleeping accommodations are great. The pool is the best part of this house. There is shade and sun through out the entire day, the deck is spacious, and the water is warm. It made our trip so amazing having the pool. The lake views are beautiful and we watched the sunset from the back yard every night. The location of the house is great too. It 's a short drive to St. Joseph's (10 min) but also a easy drive to South Haven and Holland/ Saugatuak (45 min), allowing you to get out and explore all the cute towns Michigan has to offer. The house is really well stocked with towels, pantry items, beach towels, etc. It really is the perfect house and we can't wait to come back! ##### Ruth F.

I was a little unsure as to how the sleeping arrangements might work for the adults. However, everyone was pleased with their arrangement and put two twins together to create a king for one couple. The kitchen was stocked beyond belief and we had the local Meijer supermarket deliver food the day of our arrival which made a huge shopping spree easier. We had extended family who stayed in a house up the road over for dinner, a couple of nights, and despite the number of people , it worked out incredibly well. Chris, the manager was highly responsible and responsive. The pump on the pool did fail our last day there, but he had the repair man out and the pump changed within the day. The views were spectacular, the memories treasured, the house beautifully decorated and Saint Joseph was a perfect place for adults and children to make special memories together. Would highly recommend this house and Chris our manager for your next seamless vacation. ##### Kim U. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris S.

Christopher went out of his way to make our stay comfortable and most enjoyable. The kitchen had recently been remodeled, we enjoyed eating in most nights. The view of the lake Michigan was beautiful, while spending days in the pool and evenings playing ping pong, which was a family favorite. I would highly recommend this property. You will not be disappointed!! ##### Chris S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin H.

Loved the pool, short car ride to beach; house had everything we needed. Plenty of separate spaces to branch out with screened porch, living room, TV room and basement. Yard with fire pit area was great in the evenings. Highly recommend. ##### Robin H.
