It was a nice stay overall. I feel that the images are a bit deceiving in terms of the proximity to the lake. The hot tub was nice, but the fountain on it did not appear to work. The location was not far from many restaurants and shops, which was nice.

Nice View of Lake Michigan

We had a great time. The view of Lake Michigan was awesome. Unfortunately we didn't have good weather during our stay, but the one sunset we saw was spectacular. It was very close to the downtown area, and we spent a lot of time there. We enjoyed our stay, and if we come back to the area, we would stay here again.

Great Family Getaway

We had a mini reunion with my husband’s college friends and all of our families. It was awesome watching fireworks from the viewing deck and watching the kids play in the yard. A few of his friends live in St.Joe so it was a great location to meet up for the beach and cook out afterward. We had plenty of space for 4 adults and 3 kids to stay and not be on top of one another. The beach accessories were clutch! We loved roasting marshmallows and were appreciative of the wood provided. We would rent again and already talked about checking out one of their other properties.!
