Everything was there that we needed! Great tranquil place. Not the owners fault and maybe I missed something but the VRBO system to get ahold of the owner about a quick question could be better. Email system stated no reply and VRBO system did not work for contacting owner. Otherwise all that stayed would all stay again. Awesome place!!!

We absolutely LOVED this rental. Our son's family includes our young granddaughter. Having the two properties was perfect for us. We could put her down for a nap yet could still socialize without waking her. The properties are super clean, have every gadget/kitchen item you could possibly need and had the cutest decor. We loved the backyard, too, wooded and with two firepits fully stocked with wood. The grill was great, too. We'll be back here, for sure. Communication with the owner/manager was terrific and they offered a thoughtful welcome gift. Also, beach chairs, bikes, sun umbrellas all ready for us. So thoughtful! LOVED IT!

From booking to checkout by far our best trip ever!! The owners quickly answered any questions I had. Right before the trip the owners clearly communicated directions, check in etc. Once we got there we were greeted by a great welcome gift and personal note, super clean and comfortable houses, and literally any and every extra you could need including a sharpie to mark sandwiches for the beach. The kids (17-23) were able to ride bikes to the beach and to the bakery in the morning. The old folks could drive all the gear and together carry it down a short/no stairs walk to Berrien Beach. Parking wasn’t great, but as long as you follow the rules not horrible. We are already trying to get our dates together for next year’s stay. Thank you! Thank you!

I highly recommend this property. It was so clean and the host really thought of everything. My family loved the location close to beaches, wineries and local farms. The host also had a variety of sports equipment (volley ball, soccer, football) as well as board games that the kids had a blast with. And the back yard was large enough to let the kids run around in while we grilled and made a fire pit. Will definitely be staying again.

The properties are quite comfortable for a large group. We had nine family members and the two units provided enough space for all of use to gather together inside or outside, and privacy when needed. John and Adriana are thoughtful hosts and make us feel welcome. Our go to location in Michigan.

Stayed in both cottages with a group of seven long-time friends. Lots of space inside and out. We went to breweries and the beach (not necessarily in that order) during the day and cooked dinner at night, ending with a fire. Both decks and fire pits had plenty of space for entertaining. We had everything we needed for our stay. Great property and great hosts.

We had 9 people (3 families) in the two units and it was perfect! Everything was clean, there were plenty of towels (bath & beach!) and as others have mentioned all the little things put this house over the top! Wine and chocolate covered pretzels from our hosts was so kind and since we planned on mostly eating in - all the kitchen ware and spices (yes!!!) were super helpful. It was the difference between feeling like you were staying in a home vs a hotel.
Everything was really great and we enjoyed our time very much!

We rented both cottages for two families and it worked out perfectly. Both are updated and well appointed with kitchen, laundry room and backyard with two fire pits and a patio. The host left us a lovely bottle of rose and red wine along with a snack. Also, both cottages had a beach bag with towels and a cooler. We would defiantly stay here again.

I traveled with a group of 7 people , and had some doubts with the space and comfortably, but once we arrived, all doubts were lifted.
Pier joy, is a Perfect duplex style setting, as BOTH homes are equipped with: a full kitchen, deck, fire pit, laundry room, living room, bathrooms, showers. Tvs ( with streaming services available), stocked with bored games and reliable internet . It was in a quiet secluded neighborhood, that felt both open (but overall)private.
It is just minutes away from the New Buffalo township , which was perfect for visiting the local brewerys, beaches, restaurants and forest preserves.
The beach was also very accessible, 15-20 drive.
In the down time some of us took the bikes available for a neighborhood stroll .
Each home can comfortably host up to 8 (3 beds in each home plus sofas)
Highly recommend 👌

I stayed with my extended family for a kick off to summer vacation. The owners added a second unit that is really beautiful, well appointed and comfortable. My family stayed in the original unit, which we love. We cooked, had a fire at night (with s'mores, of course) and went to the local beach at sunset. Just a great way to start the summer.

We are very comfortable at the cottage. Lots of games and things to do while staying in, and plenty of options in the local area. Smores by the fire during a light snow was great!

The hosts always make us feel welcome, and this property is our home away from home. Great location and a very comfortable home.
We had a wonderful stay. We will be back again soon.

Everything in the cabin was perfect for what we wanted. Quick, adult getaway with friends. We brought a bunch of things we thought we needed, however, this place comes stocked with plenty of cooking spices, utensils etc..

Cozy Friend Getaway
Pier Joy was a cozy and comfortable spot for a friend getaway for the new year. The house has everything you need and is in a perfect location. We were lucky and had mild enough winter weather to walk in Warren Woods state park and spend some time on the beach.

Fall Long Weekend
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property! The hosts were excellent. Communication ahead of arrival was thorough and timely. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches on our arrival (personal note and welcome treat) that made us feel very welcome. The location was beautiful and quiet. We felt secluded, peaceful and private but were still just a quick trip to all that the region has to offer (great restaurants, beaches, parks, breweries, etc.). The home itself was very clean and well decorated. Newer appliances and everything felt very fresh and new. Kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with whatever you would need for a stay, without feeling cluttered. Comfy bed linens and plush towels. We definitely enjoyed the rainfall showerhead!
We came for a long weekend and a football game. Pleasantly surprised by the easy trip to South Bend - not short but a pleasant drive and very manageable. Would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to extend a football weekend and enjoy some peace along with the excitement of the game.
Our only regret is that we weren't able to stay longer! Highly recommend the property and the hosts!

Immaculate and Welcoming Cottage
Through the years we have stayed in many towns and cottages in Harbor Country and this is by far our favorite. All of the amenities and extras made us feel so incredibly welcome and that made us enjoy every minute of our stay. My boys did not want to leave. The place is cozy and spotless. The bed was so comfy; I had the best sleep of my life in years. The shower is well-appointed, too. Finally, the property feels serene and wooded, but still close to everything— eat, drink, shop and explore! Pier Joy!

Pier Joy is Pure Joy
This is our second time staying at Pier Joy. It was exactly as we remembered: modern, clean, and comfortable, with of all the ammenities you could ask for!
The house is so quiet and nestled right in the woods for ultimate privacy. We enjoyed using the outdoor firepit and many meals on the deck while listening to the birds and looking for wildlife.
Adriana and John are excellent hosts. Thank you both for another wonderful vacation!

Union Pier Gem
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely property. It was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a week at the beach. The owners were in close communication with us and even left a note and gift upon our arrival! We would definitely return to this property when visiting Union Pier in the future.

Fabulous- will go again
The home was lovely and well appointed. We really enjoyed the fire circle, with a lovely fire all set up for us. Not only was the property clean and well maintained (inside and out), but the towels and linens were high quality. The area is beautiful; easy to get to the beach, parks, and food. Wonderful all around! We will definitely be back.

Immaculate, updated cottage in beautiful, wooded setting
My family and I had a wonderful stay here. Just a short drive from Wareen Dunes, it was truly a home away from home to return to at the end of each day. The amenities are new and pristine; beds and linens are comfortable and crisp; communication with hosts was clear and inviting; and the outdoor spaces (deck, yard, fire pit area) were perfect for dinners outside, kids running around and s’mores around the fire at night. The hosts went above and beyond with a welcome package when we arrived—treats for both my husband and I and our kids, what a beautiful surprise! We had a perfect stay and look forward to a return in the future.

Great place in Union Pier
John and Adriana were great hosts. The property was perfect for our family of 5. The house was clean and very cutely decorated. A gift bag of two bottles of wine and ingredients for s'mores were a very classy touch! Thank you for allowing us to stay at your home. We can't wait to come back.

Great Getaway!
Lovely cottage in wooded area. The hosts thought of everything you’ll need for your stay. And I mean everything. We forgot our blue tooth speaker to listen to music and they had one there. Nicely updated indoors and out. Looking forward to going back soon!

Perfect cottage and location for mom/daughter weekend
The cottage was so welcoming as soon as we stepped inside. So very comfortable and cozy, very clean and nicely decorated. Adriana and John responded to any emails very quickly and are great hosts. The cottage was a perfect place and location for all we wanted to do. I will definitely return to Pier Joy to continue exploring the area.

Wonderful Stay!
This property was better than the pictures! We were a group of 4 women and found everything from the bathroom and amenities to the beds and couches comfortable, clean and nicely decorated! The location slightly off the main road was perfect for walking (even when the ground is covered with snow)! The owners were very responsive and we are so pleased with our experience.
