Fun stay - close to everything!
We had a great stay visiting family in Michigan. So much to do and everything is very close to the cottage (downtown St. Joes, Silver Beach, etc). The cottage is awesome for families and we felt like we had room to spread out. Host was also very communicative. Thanks for a fun trip!

Blue house
Upon arrival we noticed the yard had not been mowed. Once we entered the house we discovered that the back door was left open. Touring the house we noticed the locked supply closed was left open and windows cleaner left in the living room..After all that our stay was nice.

Cozy blue cottage is truly cozy
Clean, beautiful and with every small detail taken care of - Cozy blue cottage was truly a cozy relaxing experience for us. Nice layout, inviting back patio and large backyard with fire pit. Ideal location - straight shot of 8-10 min to beaches/parks and St. Joseph area restaurants with a very little traffic to bother you even in the busy vacation season. Benton harbor and South Haven attractions are also close by (15-20 min drive). We are happy that we picked blue cottage for our 3 nights, 4 days August vacation.

Fun weekend!
We had a family wedding in St. Joseph and this place was the perfect house to rent for the weekend. House was super clean and had all the amenities we were looking for. Very close to a public beach and felt so secluded from all the other homes in the area! Would go back again!

Perfect for families
We just stayed at the Little Blue Cottage for 4 nights. This was one of our best VRBO experiences. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable. The location was ideal for our purposes. The hosts were extremely responsive. Our group had 5 children ranging in age from 9 to 15 years old. The third bedroom/bunk house was perfect for the kids. They had their own space with beds for everyone, a table and chairs, couches, a sink and their own t.v. When we weren't our and about, the kids were able to enjoy their own space. Very enjoyable for everyone, excellent experience, will certainly come back.

Lovely home in-the woods
Nicely arranged rooms For family to both sleep and have social times together too. Well equipped. Outside furniture for sitting. Near beaches and all the fun things in St Joseph like little shops, restaurants and stores. Our family mostly spent time pickleballing at public courts in the area and at the beach. I really appreciated good communication with the owner. She aways answered any questions quickly. We would definitely rent again from her.
