Large, modern, clean house with a great yard/pool + direct private beach access and stunning view view to watch the sunset with a cocktail or watch kids in the pool with lake michigan in the background. Well stocked house for things you need (cups, plates, bowls, silverware, appliances, utensils, bedding, pillows, robes, towels, ample indoor/outdoor comfortable furniture, etc... we never lacked anything we needed). Host was communicative and easy to work with. Really enjoyed the sauna (mostly adults) and pool (mostly kids). Only downsides of the trip were outside of host's control -- there was a bacterial issue in the lake and the County government closed all the beaches for e-coli risk for most of our stay -- a bunch of kids at a beach house and can't go in the water was a bummer. Also, St. Josephs is okay, but some of the surrounding areas are not as nice or tourist friendly. We would stay here again for the host, house, and amenities (beach, pool, sauna, view, etc), but were not in love with the destination... however that could be just our personal preferences. Stay with confidence if this is your preferred vacation destination.
