Excellent Stay
Excellent stay just minutes outside St Joseph. We liked that we were able to access the city easily without having to fight the busyness of tourist season. It was very spacious and clean. Even with directions from host, the place was a little hard to find. It seemed like you were driving through someone's yard with the amount of overgrowth in the lane. Despite that, we would definitely stay again.

Great Getaway!
The property was super cute and a great getaway for a family or small group of friends. Katie was great with communication. It was perfectly located between St. Joseph and South Haven with a 12-20 minute drive. The beach near the property was AMAZING! The walk down and back up may be difficult for those with mobility issues. We didn’t find a grocery store nearby so plan accordingly for a little bit of a drive. We look forward to staying again in the future!

Breezy and spacious
We really enjoyed our stay at Katie's home. It is situated 10 minutes north of St. Joseph where we attended a wedding. The kitchen, dining area and living room was comfortable for us to each have a seat or two! The deck was awesome, especially on cool dark nights to enjoy the cool weather. The shrubs along the drive to the home were overgrown and could be cut back to avoid scratching guests vehicles. Katie notified me after checking in that the washing machine was out of order and would be repaired after our departure. The home was clean, comfortable, spacious, breezy and close to our events. I would recommend this home to others who want access to Lake Michigan, wineries, beaches, and park trails.

Nice place for girls a getaway weekend
House was very clean and cozy. We had everything we needed. Loved the open floor plan. Close to restaurants and we enjoyed shopping downtown St. Joseph. The walk to the beach wasn’t quite what we expected but was ok for our group. Could see it being as issue for those taking young kids with a lot of belongings, elderly or less mobile people. Also the alley to the house is quite over grown and brushed up to the larger vehicles. Over all we truly enjoyed our time here. Checkin and communication with owner was great!

A Lovely Little Getaway
One of the most adorable places we have rented in MI to date. The coach house was surprisingly roomy and we loved the layout and decor. The kitchen was a joy to cook in and the beds were so comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Quaint and Peaceful Getaway
The pictures for this property do not do it justice. I loved the pictures but was leary about staying above a garage. I was pleasantly surprised the moment we stepped through the door. The wooden steps led us to a well thought out living space that was tastefully decorated. The many books of various interests was a nice touch. The entire place was clean (I've been to some that weren't). Almost everything you need is provided. It was peaceful spending time on the deck. We checked out the private beach. The beach was cool, but it was a hike going up and down the steps! I think I need to get in better shape! It was also a decent midpoint between St. Joe and South Haven. No complaints from my daughter and me!

Nice but a few unfortunate glitches.
Access was through an alley way. The overgrown brush was a slight hindrance to our truck. House was very clean, unfortunately we found a dead bat in the bathroom cupboard. Though there was compensation, it was unsettling. On our second night, a downed tree caused a power outage blocking the alley way resulting in the fact that we were not able to leave the apartment until the pole and line were repaired late the next morning. I managed to boil water for coffee and heat up some breakfast on the gas grill. Not fun. The location was good to get to St Joseph and Blackbird Waterhouse in Coloma (an awesome restaurant). The description of the walk and access to the lake is extremely vague. There were at least four sets of stairs and two rocky dirt paths plus a five step ladder to get down to the beach. Not only was it very steep, several loose steps were very dangerous. A benefit was that there is a parking pass provided to Silver Beach. Some compensation to avoid the “hike” to the Lake Michigan access from the apartment. The apartment itself was very nice and well stocked. Unfortunate the few “glitches” during our stay. Not the fault of the host. But inconvenient for us.

A beautiful getaway weekend
When I say that this carriage house is a perfect getaway spot, I mean it. The house itself is so lovely. It is the perfect space for a small family, or a few friends. The kitchen was very well equipped, and we found everything we needed. The beach was a close walk, and was so lovely. Our 6-year-old son did not want to leave, and is already talking about when we can return to visit again.

Private Beach Getaway
As a family of five (children ages 6, 2, and infant), we really loved taking the short walk through the woods and down to the beautiful, private beach! The apartment had a large kitchen with everything we needed, comfortable beds, and cozy living room with bright windows. Communication and check-in was smooth with many provided details. Our only recommendation would be to bring a portable child gate (if you have little kids) for the stairs as they are hidden only by a curtain from the hallway. Thanks Katie for the great stay! We hope to return again soon.

Perfect location, mid spot, between St Joseph and South Haven and the beaches on Lake Michigan. Very relaxing and comfortable 2 bedroom Coach House. Be sure you put Maple Ave (not St., Rd., Ln.) in your GPS!!! There are so many Maples in the area. Thanks Katie, we had a great time and LOVE MICHIGAN! Can’t wait to return. The Houston Girls!

Charming Airy Bright Property
Lovely bright and airy property. One of the reasons we chose this property was the jacuzzi. Unfortunately, we were not told it was not working until the arrival email. We still loved the property. Just FYI the light in the shower is out. Balcony door did not stay closed securely. It would have been nice to have two more chairs on deck and extra pillows.

The master suite was spacious with a large master bath. The 2nd bedroom was small for 2 adults but perfect for small kids. The kitchen was clean and everything was provided to prepare and cook meals. The home was located outside of St Joes but close enough for dining and any activities that we wished to do.
