The house was very nice. The view of the lake was awesome! Communication with the owner was quick and easy. The kitchen was excellent! Well stocked and large. We will return if we get the chance. Highly recommend.

When you read that this is a well-stocked kitchen, it definitely is! My family and I stayed over Thanksgiving weekend, and the property did not disappoint for views or platters. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and highly recommend it.

Just a wonderful place all around! We had a nice family reunion here and the owner was very accommodating and communication was fantastic.

We rented this house as the base camp for my sisters out of town wedding! It had plenty of space and beds to house all of us. The property was clean and supplied with plenty of activities laid out! Like a s’more bar! We took some wedding photos here and the backdrop was unreal! Only wish we had more time to enjoy the private beach and hot tub! Highly recommend this rental!

This beautiful Lake Michigan Beach house was just perfect for our family to re-unite and chill for a few days before we say good buy to summer. The home was absolutely spacious, ultra clean, and well stocked for a perfect vacation. There were lots of things to do, but mostly we enjoyed the time together watching the gorgeous sunsets and the cozy time around the campfire each evening. It was indeed restful,

My family stayed at this lovely home for my daughter’s wedding, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! Two bedrooms and a bath on the ground floor made it easy for my son, his wife and children to have their own space. The main floor with three bedrooms and bath is spacious, beautifully decorated, and has fabulous views of Lake Michigan. The house is directly on the lake, with access via stairs so you can put your toes in the water while enjoying the beauty! Roland is a wonderful host who went over and above the call of duty to make calls for us checking availability of The NY Times for my husband, as well as mailing us a package that arrived after we left. Great experience, stay here!

Extended family vacation: two grandparents, four "kids", three grandkids. Very enjoyable home, host and property.

Lovely home and the owners have put much thoughtfulness in providing for the needs of visitors. Everyone in our group commented on the cleanliness of the house and how well stocked it was. Cookware was nice quality which doesn’t typically happen in our experiences.

This home and its location are ideal for a large family getaway. The beach is accessible and the backyard is spacious and shady including a badminton net, a fire-pit, and hot tub. The beach toys were much appreciated by our grandsons. The house is tastefully decorated with every amenity for cooking, entertainment, and relaxing; no details are spared. The upper deck was a perfect place to view the lake and sunsets. Roland was professional and pro-active in communicating with us via text during our stay. We hope to return next summer. Thank you Cindy and Roland.

A beautiful gem in Benton Harbor. Clean, great beach front location and very well appointed with high end finishes - I.e. kitchen, linens etc. we had one issue with the outdoor hot tub and Roland was on it. He sent the pool guy over and then came over himself to drain and refill it to get it back to sparkling! And while he was there he played volleyball and badminton with the kiddos. And he even have us a giftcard to a local restaurant for our troubles. He is a class act. And the property was perfect for us.

The place was awesome and more than exceeded our expectations.

We had work retreat here and it was perfect. The house was large enough to spread out, have privacy, and come together in different spaces. We had a bbq one night and, as many other have said, the kitchen did not disappoint. There was everything you could need. Having stayed in several other VRBOs, we packed too much since all of the kitchen tools were provided. The house, floors, and bathrooms were all very clean. The beach was great, clean, and made for nice walks in the morning. There about 100 steep stairs down from the lawn to the beach, so that made for quite a workout. The paddleboard was store part way up the stairs, which was a little challenging to bring down. Roland communicated frequently via text and provided an easy check in. The owners did require both the purchase of $80 property damage protection AND a $1,000 security deposit, neither of which I've had to do before. We did receive the $1,000 deposit back. We would visit again.

We had a wonderful time here. The home was lovely and the beach was perfect. The kayak, paddleboard and hot tub were a great bonus. Highly recommend!

We had a fabulous visit to this property. It was immaculately clean and the communication with the owners was perfect. The house is well decorated and there were many extras that made you feel right at home (including supplies for s'mores!). The kitchen had everything you need and there are two fridges for food and drinks. We made use of the hot tub, fire pit, and badminton almost daily. The views and sunsets are STUNNING!! It is quite a walk down the stairs to the beach - but the nearby park down the hill provides easy access. Some of our group drove down daily to walk from the lot and it was super convenient. We hope to come back next summer!

Everything is as advertised. Beautiful, quiet location. Thoughtfully decorated. Large back yard w/ steps down to beach. You can watch the sun set over the lake from the living room or upper deck. Our whole family loved it, and the kiddos are already asking when we can go back again.

This is a wonderful place to stay at. Advance communications were so easy with the owner. No surprises whatsoever. When we arrived, the house presented like a realtor had staged it, quite a nice greeting! We were very pleased with the amenities at the house. There were 8 in our party along with a 9 mo. old and we had plenty of space during our week. I found the owner incredibly responsive and assisted with each question we had. He couldn't have done better. The Kitchen is very well appointed and both my wife and daughters commented that they had never been in a VRBO with this scale of equipment. It made it a great place to cook. Sunsets were spectacular and the firepit was a perfect way to relax after a day of relaxing. Our only concerns were some slow running drains which the owner is already addressing and some of us like a firmer bed but then we shouldn't stay at a VRBO and get a hotel instead!!! Great place, we're ready to come back next year.

This house was perfect for us—the college kids all congregated on the lower level for games and late nights, and we enjoyed peaceful views of the lake on the upper level. The kitchen is so fully stocked with equipment, and the big kitchen table easily sat 10; we had lively dinners. Beyond hunting for beach glass on the beach and taking the nice long walk to the St Joseph lighthouse, we had the hot tub, firepit and badminton for plenty to do. We’ll go back when it’s warmer to try the kayak . My husband I had cocktails and appetizers on the rooftop patio at 211 Main in St Joseph and took a nice afternoon hike around the Sarett Nature Center. Thanks for being such gracious hosts, Roland and Cindy!

This is the best rental house I have stayed in. The pictures don't do it justice, this house and beautiful and SO CLEAN. The kitchen here is better equipped than my kitchen, the views are breath taking and the owners are super responsive. Roland followed up with me at every stage and gave great recommendations on restaurants and things to do in the area. The master bedroom bed is INSANELY comfortable. I just can't say enough good things about this house, but don't take my word for it just rent it yourself!

We were all very comfortable...great views of the lake.House is nicely updated and decorated.

This house is a great place to spend time with friends and family. It has the best stocked kitchen that I have ever seen in a rental property. The house is immaculate and well maintained. It certainly lives up to the description in the listing. The owners are very attentive hosts. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet place to relax on Lake Michigan.

Exceptionally clean and well appointed. The owner did an amazing job with the remodel of this home. The kitchen was fantastic, the bedrooms/bedding all exceptional. We didn't leave the house during our stay. We have stayed in many many rentals over the years, and I will say this this was the most well maintained by far. Even the garbage cans were spotless! I would absolutely stay again.

Our family had a wonderful visit at Roland and Cindy’s property. This was our second consecutive year at their home. Once again, our week was amazing. The home is clean, the view is spectacular and Roland and Cindy have thought of everything! This house has everything you would need and the communication with Roland before our stay and during our stay was prompt and efficient. They are very accessible and great to work with. Thank you Roland and Cindy for another awesome week! We appreciate all you have done to make our favorite week of the summer so special!!

We could not be happier with the wonderful location, this beautiful home, and the thoughtful, cooperative owners. It was everything our family hoped for.

The owner has provided for every need when you are in a home away from home. If you left home forgetting something just look around and the owner has it covered. It truly is like you are staying with close friends. Loved every aspect of the property and enjoyed the entire stay from start to finish.

Loved the property! We spent a ton of time outside enjoying the large yard. House was beautifully appointed! We will be visiting the area/house again next year!

Everything about this home was perfect and Roland was so great to work with. We've rented several homes via VBRO and this one by far had the best amenities! The people of Benton Harbor and St. Joseph are incredibly friendly as well, so this is a great spot to spend some low-key time with friends and family at the lake. We will be back for sure!!! Thank you Roland!

This was our family's third consecutive summer stay. We hope to come back next year too. Upgrades had been made since last year to an already outstanding house. The view of the lake can't be beat. The private beach is great. The homeowners go above and beyond to make sure our stay is special.

This is our second year staying at this property and it is AMAZING!!! The view of the lake is spectacular! The house is just as it is pictured online...even better! We had 6 adults and 4 children in our group and we fit very comfortably. Roland is very responsive if we ever had any questions. The yard is huge and there is badminton set up. We brought other outdoor games and had plenty of room. The beach area is spacious...plenty of room for the whole family and activities. The house is about a 5 minute drive from St Joe's. The stairs down to the beach may be a little intimidating to some but we have 73 year old parents in our group and they do just fine with them! Highly recommend this property!
