Summary: My family and I stayed for a few nights with our 2 small senior pups and would definitely stay here again! You can truly pack light and it’s close to St Joe’s / Silver Beach if you are traveling with dogs and need to swing back mid-day to give them a potty break. The s’mores bar, bonfire, fireflies and twinkle lights made for a magical night. Thank you so much for your hospitality, Corey & Diana!

Summary: Nice and clean with a great backyard and deck. Plenty of space for our group of six. Appreciated the coffee and other goodies. Would stay there again.

Summary: This property was so welcoming and had many touches with families and dogs in mind. My granddaughter loved the many games and the fire ring with s’mores kit. I loved the small but beautiful master bath with hand held and rainforest shower head. Shampoo, conditioner and liquid soap on the wall smelled great too. My husband appreciated the easy clean up instructions. My adult kids loved the location with beach, shops, restaurants and wineries a short drive away. The dogs loved the huge fenced in yard that even the little one wouldn’t escape from. We definitely recommend this place and the hosts were great.

Summary: We stayed here with our four kids (12-2), and they all had a blast. The home was super clean and everyone fit comfortably into their bedrooms. The enclosed backyard and fire pit made for a fun play time and s'mores after dinner. Will definitely be staying here again when we come back!

Summary: Corey sent detailed information regarding the entry to the home beforehand. The house is adorable. We especially loved the TV room filled with games for all ages. The amenities in this home are extra ordinary... Everything from s'mores to baby stuff to extra tooth brushes was provided. The large fenced in back yard made us comfortable with four grandkids ages 4-10. Definitely would return!

Summary: This place is THE perfect spot if you're in town for a wedding or just enjoying the Michgan beaches. We were there for a wedding at Stonegate Manor which is 4 minutes away . The beaches are even closer. We travelled with my mom and our dog and everyone was happy withe their space. Lots of games and stuff if you have kids with you.

Summary: The house was lovely and perfect for our family of five and dog to spread out in. The kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed and the s'mores bar was a nice touch! Super close to St Joe and easy to get to. Would definitely stay again!

Summary: I say over the top because this house has everything!!! And the host supplies items right down to pen and paper for making grocery lists!!! We had a wonderful stay and will stay again. Very roomy, bright, and it felt like home. It was nice enough to sit on the patio and play with our dogs in the yard. I can't express enough how thoroughly pleased and happy I was to stay at such a lovely place!

Summary: Stayed here for a long weekend with my partner and our dogs. Really easy to get into town and close to Warren Dunes. The house itself was the perfect spot for just relaxing and hanging out, and the dogs loved the fenced in backyard.
