Great Stay!
House and yard were great! Much bigger than it looks in the pics. Fully equipped with nice towels, linens, soaps. Kitchen was also fully equipped with extras like air fryer, dishwasher, sharp knives, filtered water in frig., condiments and plenty of pans.
We were in town for a wedding. Six of us were very comfortable for the 3 nights. Having the River right across, with deck and dock was really nice. Carry out from Mark III was really good. Thank you Proud Mary River House!

Beautiful River View
The house was perfect for our family to getaway. Quiet neighborhood and easy to find. The road is great for quiet walks. Lots of sitting areas to be together or find a spot to read. Highly recommend this house and location. The owner was very nice and easy to work with. We had no problems at all with this house.

Relaxing Oasis
This lovely home perfectly fit my family of teen and young adult children! Picturesque views made a beautiful backdrop for family photos. The house was so comfortable and clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! Great location, just a short drive to downtown, beaches, and golf courses! Everyone was able to enjoy daily activities and then meet back at the house for camp fires and games. I loved having coffee on the deck and our teens adored the cozy window seat:). Hosts were very responsive to messages, which was much appreciated. We visit St. Joseph often, as we have family in the area and this house is definitely on our list of places to return.

Charming house!
This house was absolutely charming. It was vintage yet updated. We loved the large living room and the comfortable furniture. It was very clean, spacious and had everything that you needed. The view to the river was incredible and so peaceful. There was a nice deck off of the kitchen area as well. Our grandkids enjoyed the play area and swings. The owner was prompt in responding to any questions we had.
