Perfect Girls Weekend Spot!

We had a wonderful time! The house was comfortable, clean and filled with intentional items - from sound machines in each bedroom to a Bluetooth speaker to s’mores supplies for the fire pit and more. We had everything we needed! We loved our time here and would highly recommend staying here!

Nice View of Lake Michigan

We had a great time. The view of Lake Michigan was awesome. Unfortunately we didn't have good weather during our stay, but the one sunset we saw was spectacular. It was very close to the downtown area, and we spent a lot of time there. We enjoyed our stay, and if we come back to the area, we would stay here again.

Great House

Sooo happy we booked this property for a girl's trip to celebrate my sister's birthday. The house was amazing, the hot tub was great, the decor was perfection. The hosts were so easy to communicate with and responded to any questions I had within minutes. They even left decorations and a gift basket of smores treats to celebrate the birthday. We will definitely stay at the house again!

Better than presented! Couldn’t have been cuter or cleaner. All of the linens, kitchen equipment and furnishings were top quality. I sent several communications to the hosts and each time the concern was promptly answered and taken care of. First class property!

Great Family Getaway

We had a mini reunion with my husband’s college friends and all of our families. It was awesome watching fireworks from the viewing deck and watching the kids play in the yard. A few of his friends live in St.Joe so it was a great location to meet up for the beach and cook out afterward. We had plenty of space for 4 adults and 3 kids to stay and not be on top of one another. The beach accessories were clutch! We loved roasting marshmallows and were appreciative of the wood provided. We would rent again and already talked about checking out one of their other properties.!
