Great lake getaway, awesome beach, amazing house
Where to begin!? This trip lived up to all of our expectations…and then some! Everything about this property and trip was great! The host has clearly been intentional in a complete renovation of a property located on AMAZING Lake Michigan beaches with an amazing view. Everything about the inside of the house is new/reno’ed…and when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING. Appliances, dish/stem ware, bedding, TV, cabinets. You name it, it’s new. Owner/host did a great job!!
Now, on to the beach. We’ve vacationed many times to the 30A and Destin area and you’d be hard-pressed to tell a difference in the texture of the sand on the beach, so that was a huge win! The amazing bonus compared to Destin/30A area is we had the beach to ourselves! No competing for the front row of the beach, you’re not paying $200/day for umbrella and chairs on the front row, no smell of seaweed, no salt to contend with, no undertow to worry about with kids…just great sand, privacy, and the same sound of waves crashing on the shores.
Want to head into town? No worries…a 6 minute drive and you’re downtown St. Joseph. Shops, ice cream (who doesn’t love a Kilwin’s?!), and restaurants don’t leave you wanting much more.
Interested in golf? Great! There’s the Jack Nicklaus course that’s only 5’ away. We played Lake Michigan Hills as well which was another nice course.
Beautiful sunsets overlooking the lake…again, hard to say enough nice things about this property and our experience. We’ll definitely be back!
