What a gem!
We stay in the St. Joe's area 3-5 times per year. This is without question my favorite vacation home. The views are incredible, the layout is thoughtful. and the place was spotless when we arrived. The close proximity to Downtown St. Joe's was a huge bonus as well.

The Perfect Weekend Getaway
I can't say enough good things about this property. It was everything I hoped for and all that the pictures promised. Checkin was flawlessly easy and everything you think you need is already in the house, all the details were laid out very thoughtfully. There was more than enough space for my party of 8 to spread out and have private time but also perfect spaces for us all to come together.

Expansive Vista
Our group of 12 adults ages 26-65 enjoyed our week long stay, an annual August gathering that we hold in different spots along the “coastline of the Mitten” state. The St. Joes area was new to some of us, and we made a great choice of locale and accommodation. The home provided comfortable gathering space for preparing meals, playing cards and watching Premier League opening soccer matches. The patio fire pit was a nightly ritual and the beach a daily delight. The expansive backyard provided a sense of privacy and grandeur, and reminded me more of parts of old time Newport RI or Cape Cod, rather than the typical crowded cottage areas of some resort areas. The beds were supremely comfortable and nights were so quiet allowing the waves to lull one to sleep. None of us had difficulty with the beach steps, which are so thoughtfully designed. Never saw more than 2 or 3 other people on the beach. If you’re looking for a sense of luxury indoors and nature’s beauty outdoors ( and proximity to great golf) this is the place for your group. Jim, the homeowner, is cordial and responsive. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful, clean, well equipped, fun place to stay for a family vacation!
We had a great time on our family reunion trip to Michihan! The home was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed to enjoy a week's vacation together. We had a 3 kiddos and 7 adults and we all had a relaxing week in this home. The sunsets were definitely a highlight and we enjoyed the porch when it was drizzling, but we still wanted to be outside. Communication before and during our stay was quick and easy, we would definitely stay here again!!

Wonderful Week in a Beautiful Home
Our family of 10 (6 adults and 4 children) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Beach Breeze last week, celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. The home is beautifully decorated and in a lovely setting. With five bedrooms, four with ensuite bathrooms, everyone had plenty of space. We also enjoyed the lower level for recreational activities and the screened-in porch for meals and conversation. As others have stated, the only drawback is the steep walkway to the beach (especially for older adults with mobility issues and very young children). However, we discovered a wonderful beach nearby at Jean Klock Park and took advantage of this local resource. Jim and Linda are wonderful hosts and were available whenever we had questions. Thanks for a wonderful week!

One of the best
Our family has been renting vacation properties on the Michigan shore for the past 15 years and this property is easily the nicest home we've rented. It's roomy, comfortable, attractive, and well-designed. Kitchen is great with plenty of countertops and storage and a 6-burner range. Plenty of beds for our 8 family members, ample parking for 3 cars. Property owner was a pleasure to work with and very responsive to our every question and request. He apparently monitors the property from his home because when we had a brief power outage he called us to make sure we had everything we needed. The beach is beautiful, clean, wide, sandy, and uncrowded. We didn't even notice any power boat and wave runner noise like we always have at so many other rental properties. The property is almost perfect, but for two drawbacks. First, because the house sits so close to the highway, there is considerable road noise when you're sitting out on the spacious screened-in porch, which is a shame because we would have used that space more more often otherwise. Inside the house, there is no road noise at all. Second, access to the beach is very difficult. There is a stairway down which is 175 steps long, very steep, and in spots a little treacherous. Not an easy descent at all and even more taxing coming up. The access didn't seem to bother the teenagers in our group, but some of the older members of our party -- especially my 91-year-old father-in-law -- simply could not make the trip.

The house is perfect for a multi-generational family wanting to spend time together in a picture perfect setting.The magnificent view of Lake Michigan can be enjoyed from the balconies or the screened porch or the patio or the lawn or - the beach itself! The owner provided both indoor and outdoor game equipment and beach toys for the children. Everyone had fun!

Beautiful New Lake Home
Lovely new home with high-quality furnishings. Beds and linens are super comfy. Large chefs kitchen, stunning west facing balcony with ample seating overlooking lake Michigan. Wonderful sunset views! Nice beach but not easily accessible...176 pretty steep winding stairs. Great to get your workout in especially carrying beach items. My 78 year old mother only made it once. Recreational basement was utilized a lot with cards, ping pong and air hockey. Owners are super friendly with great communication. No keurig so make sure to bring ground coffee, also bring beach towels, shampoo/conditioner, speaker for music, any water activity equipment.
