This cozy cottage is located in a quaint St. Joseph neighborhood with breath-taking views of Lake Michigan (200 feet from bluff). It is within walking distance to one of several beaches the area has to offer and is minutes from Downtown Saint Joseph which offers fun activities for the family, great restaurants and the nationally acclaimed Harbor Shores golf course which has hosted the Senior PGA championship. The property is only 50 minutes away from Notre Dame Stadium and is a great option if you're planning a football weekend. In most cases during football season, we are able to waive the 4 night minimum stay.

The renovated cottage includes a beautiful stone patio which is a perfect place to relax and watch the sunset. The kitchen is equipped with state-of-the- art appliances, granite counter-tops and oak flooring. The nautical themed living room opens up to a cozy sun-room facing the lake. The four bedrooms each sleep two. Off the kitchen there is a sliding door to a back deck with views of the lake and a gas grill

A security camera is located on the garage to monitor driveway for activity.

It was perfect!
It was just as described in the listing. The location was terrific, with a view of the water from the dining area, a nice size back deck with grill and located in a very nice neighborhood. Close to all we wanted to do in St. Joseph. The house had everything we needed with a well stocked kitchen, and in the basement we found beach towels and some sand toys for the granddaughter. Some nice extra touches too with beautiful fresh flowers on the dining table and a large container of delicious chocolate chip cookies on the kitchen table. The owner was great with staying in touch and answering any questions I had before our arrival. Instructions for entering the house were clear and arrived in a timely manner, and nice clear instructions on the checkout procedure was left right where we could find them. We had a wonderful stay and I would definitely recommend this property!

Cute Cottage with a Great Location
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was perfect for family dinners and game nights. We loved that we could walk down the street to view the sunset every night. The house was clean and the property manager was excellent at communicating with us. It was close to the beach and downtown and was kid-friendly. We definitely recommend the cottage and look forward to renting it again.

great family stay
"Cozy cottage" is the perfect name for this place! We had a wonderful time and were so impressed with the number of amenities available. The host worked with us on a last minute change in numbers and notified of extra bedding that was available. We utilized the beach toys, there were all the basic kitchen needs. We had 8 family members in and out, including 2 under 3 years old. The fact there were a few kids toys they could get out was so nice! We didn't bring a pack'n'play, but the extra twin mattress that could be used on the ground was perfect for them. There were thoughtful touches, like fresh flowers and the *most amazing* chocolate chip cookies waiting for us on arrival. Very nice neighborhood, we took a couple walks to trails but it is quite a distance to be able to walk to a beach- less than a 10 minute drive though! Only regret is we didn't stay longer!

Perfect Weekend
We enjoyed our stay at the cozy cottage. It was perfect for our family of six adults and one small child. We were able to walk in the beautiful neighborhood and watch the sunset over the lake. We had easy access to the beach, restaurants, grocery store and coffee shop. The house was well stocked and had plenty of space in the living room for all of us. There was ample table space indoors and out with a distant view of the lake. The home has vintage character and has been nicely updated. Fresh flowers and delicious chocolate chip cookies welcomed us. Responses to our texts/ call were prompt. Highly recommend this home.

Perfect location. Quiet neighborhood just steps away from the sunset on the lake each night. We walked to the art fair on the bluff. Grandma, Aunt and Uncle slept in the downstairs bedrooms while the young family members with two children (2 and 5 years of age) had their privacy upstairs with their own bedrooms and bath. The kids loved the bunk beds. St Joe never disappoints. We had a great time. The check in process was very easy and we were welcomed with fresh flowers and home baked cookies. The cookies were a big hit! Thanks to the owners for sharing their lovely home and thinking of everything.

Lake Michigan Getaway
My family and I always look to rent a different house for our summer vacations to Lake Michigan. The decision was unanimous, this house was everyone's favorite. We were less than a five minute drive to Silver Beach or downtown St Joseph. We were also able to walk down the quiet neighborhood streets and watch the sunsets over the lake in the evening.

Came for a fall weekend with my two kids and 80 yo mom. The house was exactly as pictured in a beautiful neighborhood, loved being able to walk down the street to see the sunset and lake. It was conveniently located to downtown St Joseph. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again!
