Family wedding
Had relatives from 5 states converge for a wedding celebration late September. Property was great arrangement presenting multiple sleeping arrangements and diverse recreational activities. Could spend time with family for cards, games or hot tubbing. Quite time on the patio or multiple balconies was also a treat.

“This is a mansion”
My grandson’s assessment was perhaps a little over the top, but this is a home with plenty of space for our 15 people. There were adequate kitchen utensils, dishes and pans, two refrigerators and two stoves with ovens. We were especially happy that all of us could sit in the extended dining area, although often some people would choose to eat on the pretty patio. The home is on a quiet, large secluded lot, and there is a court suitable for basketball, tennis, or pickleball. We were all fans of the beaches and dunes,but also spent some time wandering through a market and art fair in St. Joseph.

Cabin Trip in Michigan
This property was outstanding. It had every amenity my group would need. Gym, theater, hot tub, full size basketball court, fire pit, so much space and the list can go on. Everyone was able to have their own space, privacy, etc. The communication between the host jesse, was good too. The location is within 5 minutes from meijer, aldi, gas station and the interstate. I highly recommend this place, i couldn’t have found a better place than this rental. It had everything i wanted on my list. My friends will talk about the experience we had here and how i planned the trip for years!
