Brilliant for family occasions
A really well equipped, and labeled property. The owners have gone the extra mile to make this an extremely comfortable rental. It’s perfectly located. As a previous resident of St Joseph i couldn’t have been happier with our choice.

Great family place close to the Lake/River/Marina
Lots of room and accommodation options for groups. Very well furnished. Kitchen had everything you could want. Access to restaurants, coffee shops, bars, etc. is a little inconvenient but otherwise everything was great!

Relaxing with pool and beaches
Our family, including kids and grandparents had a wonderful relaxing vacation! Our kids ages 6 and 9 loved sleeping in the loft space, playing games, and having their own bathroom. The bedroom on the middle level worked out great for grandma who couldn't repeatedly go up and down stairs. The furniture and finishes on the place are modern, comfortable, and clean! The location is close to everything, and we all loved the pool and beaches.

Clean and lovely family rental
We had a wonderful experience. The home was clean and had so many personal touches like a coffee and tea bar, so many toys for the kids and plenty of beds for our whole family. The clubhouse pool was so close and convenient and it was also nice being so close to the harbor inn for dinners. We would highly recommend this rental.

Best communication with a property owner on a rental I've ever experienced. And the property was well stocked with everything you needed for your stay from the kitchen to beach toys.

Perfect Stay!
We were impressed with this rental from the moment we heard from the property manager, Tom, as well as the owner, Paul. Their communication was excellent and they provided us with helpful information prior to our trip even beginning. They are truly invested in making this place a home away from home. This place was perfect for our family of 5 - with 3 kids ages 7, 5 and 2. All of the little details in this home make it stand out...from the coffee brew station, all the labels around the home/kitchen to make it easy to find things, kid dream loft with toys/games, beach accessories/toys, the list goes on. The pool was a great addition to our stay. It provided a nice balance between beach days and pool days. The location is perfect! We did walk to a few places but everything was less than a 5 minute drive away. We hope to be back in the future! Thank you again MI Vacation Retreat! :)
