Great property for our long weekend getaway! House was very clean and the decor was relaxing. Just what we needed! Highly recommend Hagar Beach, 5 minutes away, for a quiet beach day. South Haven & St Joseph offer great meal options. Looking forward to staying here again!

Getaway Trip Stay
This little house is the perfect place to stay! We only stayed 2 nights, but the set up would be perfect for a longer stay as well!! We loved our time there! The location is perfect. It’s close enough to everything you need, including a 4 minute drive to a cute little park with beach access, but yet having the perfect amount of privacy!

Perfection!
Great location. 1 mile from Hagar Park beach (highly recommend for a low key beautiful beach day) and only 15-20 minutes from Benton Harbor/St. Joes. House was extremely clean and adorable with high quality kitchen amenities, which is sometimes questionable in a rental, so that was appreciated. Beautiful property with hardly any neighbors in sight. Great backyard with string lights and a fire pit we enjoyed nightly. Don’t forget the indoor/outdoor speaker system either! Great perk. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

We loved staying here for our short trip to michigan. Quick drive to benton habor area. The lighting and speaker systems were a fun perk. Comfortable beds and blackout curtains. Loved that the house was stocked with basic cookin ingrediants olive oil, salt, pepper, ketchup, and grilling utensils.

We loved staying at this home. It was clean and cute. It was very close to the highway and Hagar Beach which was the reason we stayed. We were able to easily drive into St. Joe and South Haven. I would highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful couples weekend
Our friends and us had not been to the area before. The property was located North of St. Joseph and Benton Harbor. So we had the quiet and homey feel but close to shopping, and restaurants. Coffee on the back porch Saturday morning with the birds and woodland animals was very relaxing. We had a table to play cards at and had lots of laughs.
Loved the heated floors in the bathroom.

The property was in a good location. It was close to the lake, many small towns and easy access to interstates.
The property was very clean and organized. Very tastefully decorated. The heated bathroom floor was fantastic as it was pretty chilly.
