We come to St Joseph/Benton Harbor quite often, and this was probably our favorite rental spot. Cool property, PERFECT location to explore the area. We loved it!

Beach Bliss is a cute and well appointed property. The outside sitting area and fire pit were enjoyable. The beds and furniture were comfy. I would recommend to anyone that wants a quiet getaway close to the beach.
This is a quaint cottage close to the beach and downtown area with lots of shopping and dining options. We enjoyed Silver Beach and walking around downtown. After eating and shopping we were able to relax in the quiet neighborhood.
Location was perfect for our visit to this part of Michigan.
No noisy neighbors. Important to us was: very comfy beds; good shower; very clean house. Great communication between us and the property managers. We enjoyed the home.
Great little place for a girls’ beach day and night out! Very clean, quiet location, plenty of amenities. We had a blast, thank you to our wonderful host!

Perfect for our quick weekend trip to visit wineries. Clean and the beds were comfortable. If I had any criticism it would be the furniture was not very comfortable for sitting around. Good overall trip.
This place is perfect for 2-4 adults that really just need a place to sleep and relax. Kind of a different setup with the church/bell tower right next to the house but nothing bad about it. We had minimal contact with the owners, which I appreciate. Everything was as advertised. Would stay here again.
Had a great girls getaway!!! The owner of the property was onsite and so nice! Everything was super clean, the property was perfect...all the essentials were there to make it the bed weekend. Very close to downtown St Joseph, the casino and a slew of wineries!!! Thank you Sarah for letting us stay!!! We may make this a yearly tradition!!!
Loved this charming home in Benton Harbor! My husband and I stayed here along with our 12 yr old son and our family dog. The space was perfect size and we appreciated the quiet neighborhood. Very easy to navigate from the house. Just a quick15 min drive north to South Haven (great for the Pilgrim Haven Nature Ctr AND Captain Lou's!) And a quick 15 min drive south to Silver Beach and SBPizza. Gotta check out the Lumberjax Ax Throwing! So fun!The backyard is a perfect space to unwind and sit by a fire.I didn't realize it was 8-10' from another rental until we arrived. I was worried about our dog barking and possibly disturbing the renters, but we kept her outside only briefly at night. The proximity of the other rental won't prevent us from returning. Still feels very private and cozy!
The house was very nice. It was quiet and close to town.
Unsure on how to use the tv at first. Maybe some directions would have been helpful; but enjoyed beach and family ! Didn’t need tv!
Love to have a later
Checkout time. 10 am was a little early for us. But it worked fine
We would definitely stay again
Thank you
