The kids love the arcade options as well as being able to play ping pong. Plenty of full bathrooms. There was a bag of beach towels provided. The Murphy bed in the basement was a queen and was comfortable. We appreciated the assortment of dishes available in the kitchen to use. Our only major disappointment was with the groundskeeping. There was significant visible poison ivy growing around the sports court and outdoor grill. This made those areas unusable for us, as we had lots of young children. Some of the yard was clearly spongy from animals tunneling. There was significant greenery above and around the outdoor fireplace which was a fire hazard. ##### Rosemarie J.

Jun 23, 2025 #### Our group of 10 had an unforgettable stay at Serenity Woods Family Retreat! From the moment we arrived, it was clear this place was something special. The home is spacious, thoughtfully designed, and perfectly suited for a group — whether you're lounging by the firepit, enjoying coffee on the deck, or cooking together in the well-equipped kitchen, every detail has been considered. The bedrooms are comfortable and private, the common areas are open and welcoming, and the entire property radiates a sense of peace and seclusion. We never once felt cramped, and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax and recharge. The surrounding woods are stunning — it truly lives up to the name Serenity Woods. Morning walks, evening stargazing, and everything in between felt like a retreat from everyday life. The hosts were incredibly responsive, helpful, and made us feel right at home. We’re already talking about coming back — it’s rare to find a place that fits a big group so comfortably while still feeling luxurious and tranquil. Highly, highly recommend. 10/10. ##### Nikolas K.

The frogs were a special attraction :). The playground and sports court got lots of use.  We grilled as well as use dhte fireplace out back for smores.  There was plenty of room for story, preparing and eating food during ours tay.  We found everything to be clean.  The location of the house was great - off the beaten path but close to the beaches and lots of great places to eat. ##### Tom M.

We played pickleball and basketball on the tennis court. The garage had a large workout area complete with rubber mats on the floor. The hot tub area was very relaxing and enjoyable. All the beds are comfortable and allowed us to get a good night's rest. The kitchen was well-stocked and had two large side-by-side stove/ovens. The grandkids enjoyed the waterfall and small pond complete with croaking frogs. We were there for only a week but feel like we crammed a month of fun into that week. ##### Barry B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard B.

Everyone was able to have their own space, privacy, etc. The communication between the host jesse, was good too. The location is within 5 minutes from meijer, aldi, gas station and the interstate.

Jul 8, 2024 #### Great House and Property We had a fantastic family getaway at this home. It is nicely updated, very spacious, and the outdoor back patio area was great. We had a ton of fun on the basketball court playing many outdoor games. The kitchen was great to make big meals in. There is NO shortage of refrigerator space, and the ice maker in the coffee bar area was great. It is not officially a 7 bedroom home though, it has only 6 bedrooms. The murphy bed in the theater must be what they are counting as a 7th. It is at most 10 minutes from downtown and the beach, 5 minutes from several grocery stores, and not far from Warren Dunes, which had a nice beach that was less crowded. Overall we would definitely stay again, and hope to soon! ##### Sarah W. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marie P. Sep 30, 2023 #### Private, well stocked, great stay! Our group had a great time at Serenity woods! It was quiet and private, yet super close to shopping and other conveniences. The house is super spacious and clean. The kitchen can accommodate many cooks, and everything was functional. The bar area around the corner with ice maker was a huge bonus. Beds were comfy and the master suite bathroom on the first floor was heavenly. Outdoor patio was great as well, with the pond and waterfall providing great views and frog watching. Only things I would mention is that some of the windows were difficult to close once opened. The hot tub was awesome, but could have used a little more attention for cleaning. We also had a surprise visit from a mosquito spraying crew that we weren’t warned about. However, it did help with the bugs - so we weren’t too bothered by it! All together a great stay, and I’d highly recommend! ##### Marie P. ### 8/10 Good #### Maria P. Mar 16, 2025 ##### Maria P. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sandy A.

Jul 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### “This is a mansion” My grandson’s assessment was perhaps a little over the top, but this is a home with plenty of space for our 15 people. There were adequate kitchen utensils, dishes and pans, two refrigerators and two stoves with ovens. We were especially happy that all of us could sit in the extended dining area, although often some people would choose to eat on the pretty patio. The home is on a quiet, large secluded lot, and there is a court suitable for basketball, tennis, or pickleball. We were all fans of the beaches and dunes,but also spent some time wandering through a market and art fair in St. Joseph. ##### Shirley T.
