About this house rental
Situated in Lincoln Township, this lovely house for $230 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. ATTENTION, ATTENTION RATES DETAIL; the instant quote feature on the set up of VRBO's website can be misleading at first glance. A maximum of 8 people are allowed on the property at any given time. Minimum stay is 2 nights in off season (Mid September-May). Off-season rates are: $230/night for 2 people, plus $60 per each additional person whether they are day guests only or over night. Please be accurate with your group numbers in requesting a reservation as owner will edit quote to reflect the total head count prior to confirming. Prime 2024 season (May 26-September 22) requires a minimum stay of one week (7 nights). Weeks are Sunday to Sunday. The prime season weekly rate is: $3290, for up to 8 people.

Nestled between poplar covered sand dunes, this contemporary 3 bedroom (sleeps up to 8) ranch style home offers a partial view of Lake Michigan and a striking panoramic view of North Grand Mere Lake. The home includes private sandy beach access on Lake Michigan and a (seasonal) wading stream. Due to recent high water levels, we have experienced significant shoreline erosion over the past couple of years. The beach is smaller than the pictures depict. Any questions, inquire with owner. Among many amenities, the home includes a private in ground swimming pool (closes mid September for the winter/opens early May), six-person hot tub (open year round) and large wrap-around deck. Come to enjoy serene views, beautiful snow falls, wildlife, endless sunsets, relaxing walks and a private sandy beach. If you like action, you're only 10 to 20 minutes away from the popular destination towns of St. Joseph and New Buffalo. We're located at exit 22, off of I-94. Stay at the Lake House for a week in the prime season or a minimum two-night getaway during the off-season and enjoy it all!

We had such a nice couples' weekend at the Lakehouse on Sunset Path. Shelly and Marc are such wonderful hosts! There was a ton of snow that weekend, and our hosts had us plowed on arrival and through the weekend. The view from the house is beautiful. Having the gas fireplace to enjoy was cozy. And the hot tub was a highlight. We had a delicious dinner at the Grande Mere Inn nearby and a fun stop at the Round Barn Winery in Baroda; enjoyed the trails there too. We plan to return for another winter getaway! Looks like it would be amazing in the summer too.

The house is very nice and the owners are super - very communicative and supportive. Beautiful and secluded neighborhood, but close enough to restaurants/shopping. One wish; wi-fi instead of basic cable.

It was an incredible stay at this home. Shelly was a warming host, in touch and responsive within minutes for any questions we had. The home was perfect, we utilized all features and had a wonderful relaxing time for our Thanksgiving break. I could not be happier with our stay. Thanks again!

We came up for our honeymoon to relax after a year of wedding planning and festivities. We enjoyed our visit with two exceptions..,not sure how I missed these on the overview of the property. No wifi and very basic and limited cable.

Shelly was a wonderful hostess, she was quick to answer all of our questions. The house itself was wonderful. It was close to local attractions, but with the pool and beach access, who needs to go anywhere?

This has become one of our favorite lake vacation homes. Home was immaculate, spacious and charming. Pool and private beach was the icing on the cake! Shelly and Marc were great attentive hosts. Close to wineries, u-pick fruit farms and shopping. A++

We LOVED this house and this stay. The hosts were very kind and accommodating. The private beach was a highlight for sure. The pool and hot tub combination was a must and we were out in the backyard all week. Such a relaxing vacation! A few things to keep in mind: there is only 1 toilet (2nd bathroom is only a shower), the basement sleeping area was warm as there is no central A/C, and there is no wifi available in the house. The upstairs bedrooms have window AC units for sleeping.

my wife and dog stayed a week, it was clean upon arrival and nice setup. we had great weather so that was the win-win. pool hotuib firepit grill and outside chairs were super clean. the host was responsive and we hope to return next year. the beach is down the road and down a hill, we did not use the beach, but younger folks would likely enjoy that.

The home is well cared for. The sunsets on Lake Michigan were nothing short of amazing! We were able to utilize all the property had to offer. With the view of North Grand Mere from the deck, pool, hot tub, and firepit...... As a sun-lover, sunset chaser and nature extraordinaire.... Shelly's home was a paradise!! I definitely hope to be back. Thank you for sharing your lake house.

Our group had such a great time at the lake house. We didn’t have the best weather, but it didn’t matter because the views were wonderful and the house is perfectly cozy. I’d recommend coming here if you’re looking for an unplugged getaway. Keep in mind there is no wifi, but my hotspot worked great while we were there!

Took my husband here to "unplug" & unwind as his birthday gift. The house was beautiful, very open & clean. We loved the romantic fireplace & the modern relaxing feel of the house itself. We felt there were plenty of household essentials (towels, utensils, dishware, toiletries) everything very clean. We didn't cook there but definitely could if we wanted to. We especially enjoyed the hot tub & the cool April weather was perfect for it. The hot tub was very large & luxurious. We wished there was some type of table near the hot tub to rest our drinks & things so we didn't have to get out of the hot tub to get them but that was such a minor issue. Shelly & Mark gave some great recommendations on restaurants & places to visit. we tried the Bit o Swiss bakery & loved it. Crimson Café was a small breakfast diner that had the best breakfast ever & was extremely affordable. We found the area to be safe, quiet & secluded but still very close to restaurants/stores. It was too cold to enjoy the pool but we'd love to come back to enjoy the pool with our daughter.

From the jump, you can tell that Shelly takes great pride in her lake home. The home was maintained well, communication was excellent, and the location cannot be beat. The private beach was, by far, the best part of my stay. I spent hours sitting by the water. My friends and I enjoyed local shops and restaurants but mostly, I enjoyed the view. Be sure to read the listing thoroughly as there is no WiFi (I assumed, not complaining). My only feedback is that it’s listed as 2 baths but there is only 1 toilet (yes 2 showers but 1 toilet). Not ideal but we dealt.

My husband and I loved our stay here. It was quiet, private, pet friendly, and very clean. Shelly was so nice and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a little speaker out by the jacuzzi with a super nice lake view. Since the trees were bare, we could see sooo much more of the lake. And I’m sure the view is just as nice during summer! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a relaxing getaway…a lot of good restaurants, breweries/wineries nearby

Thank you for sharing your wonderful piece of property with us. The Lake House was well equipped with all we needed! Very clean, comfortable and inviting! The hosts were wonderful with communication, details, and suggestions if wanted. Even with the cold weather, we found plenty to do in local towns and you can’t beat the hot tub that was very clean, well maintained, and hot! Can’t wait to check it out in the summer! Thank you again!!

Absolutely loved the house and the location is perfect. Calm, tranquil and relaxing. Short walk to the beautiful beach, don’t miss it! We would absolutely come and stay here again! Thanks to our host, Shelly, for the communication!

This is such a nice spot in a cozy sleepy neighborhood, and my girls' weekend trip here was so lovely. Even though it's winter, this lake house location was truly perfect to hunker down, play some card games, cozy up with snacks and older movies in the basement, and play some ping-pong downstairs. The hot tub was definitely one of the features that drew us to this house. We even bundled up to walk to the little beach and see the beautiful waves crashing in.
Everything about this VRBO was CLEAN and the check-out requests were extremely reasonable.
Shelly was so kind and checked in a couple of times throughout the weekend to make sure that everything was going alright, that we were staying warm, and offered some local restaurant suggestions.
I am absolutely planning to go back ☺️ I recommend this spot to anyone considering it!
5.0
We really enjoyed our weekend away at the Lakehouse and the surrounding Harbor Country area. While we spent much of our time away, exploring the area, we were very comfortable just hanging at the house. Off the beaten path (but not too far), the house is clean, cozy and well stocked with everything you’d need. Well maintained home, nice hot tub, gas fireplace, outdoor fire pit and pleasant views (between North Lake and Lake Michigan across the road). Beautiful sunsets on the private beach that is just down a short path, end of the road.
While it was just the 2 of us, we’d love to bring our kids back in the summer - the pool area was super cool.
Shelly is very responsive and easy to communicate with, no issues at all. Highly recommend this home at any time of the year!

Absolutely LOVED this place!!! My boyfriend and I wanted a peaceful weekend getaway and this place was the perfect spot. The house is very clean, and the layout is beautiful. We enjoyed eating breakfast while looking out at the lake. The hot tub was super relaxing and private. There's also a trail near by that's lovely and takes you on the sand dunes.
Shelly the property manager was very kind and helpful. I definitely recommend this place!

We had a great stay, it was a quick unplanned trip. Property owner was very nice and great about reaching out to let us know if we needed anything to reach out. It has a beautiful deck with a hot tub, can't wait to book in warmer weather and take advantage of the pool. Well maintained property, will be going back!

Great place with a nice beach close to the house. Very quiet with a beautiful view of Grand Mere lake. Close to town to get a bite to eat. St.Joe Michigan is close by with shopping and restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

The Lake House was the perfect stay for our my husband and I on our honeymoon! The house is comfortable and clean, has a gorgeous view of Grand Lake Mere, and is just steps away from a private Lake Michigan beach. We loved stargazing at night from the hot tub, and taking in the gorgeous Fall colors of early October. Shelly and Mark are wonderful hosts who gave us an excellent introduction to the property upon our arrival and were always available for recommendations. We will definitely be coming back any time of year!

We had a great girls’ weekend. Property was as described. Had a great October weekend using the hot tub and having a bonfire one night. Close to St. Joseph, Grand Mere State Park, and Lake Michigan

great getaway and chance to catch up with old friends. Beautiful views, short ride to St Joseph Beach, and a short walk to gorgeous Lake Michigan private beach. Excellent hosts, very clean, comfy and cozy place.

This place was perfect. Booked it because they allow dogs and for the hot tub. House was super clean and cozy when we got there. Everything we needed they had at the house. Hot tub was perfect, walk to beach was nice, quiet neighborhood. Will have to stay again during the summer to use the pool! Host was friendly and met us when we checked in to go over any questions. They go the extra mile to make guests feel comfortable !

This house is ok, it is not great. The location and outdoor space (pool, hot tub, and firepit) were the highlights.
The hot tub and pool are very nice, make sure to bring your own pool towels, there aren’t any at the house. I missed that part in the description, and we had to use bath towels (not fun). The pool area is for swimming and not lounging. The only area to “hang out” are 2 picnic tables in the enclosed pool area. There are a couple folding vinyl aluminum lounge chairs we found in the pool shed. Could have a fun vintage feel to them, if they weren't rusty. The deck has more patio furniture to use near the hot tub.
The description says there is a grill. There is one public park-style charcoal grill on a pole in the backyard. Not what I have in mind when I read there is a grill in the backyard.
There is a beach very close, just a few min walk. It is private in the sense that only the houses in the development have access, but the house itself is not on the beach. We felt the description was a bit misleading.
There is no WiFi. We were stunned to learn about this upon our arrival. With a 7-day minimum stay, at a time when many people work remotely, this was a tough one to navigate around. I can appreciate not being connected when on vacation, I would hope that the accommodations would support a more comfortable stay.
Check-in instructions include the host meeting you at the house upon your arrival, to review some house rules and answer any questions you have. Most people prefer auto-check-in, which is typical, so I wanted to mention this piece for those who do prefer privacy.
Overall, the house is a 3-star stay. The main level was fine, as described. The basement is off-putting. The musty smell was unavoidable, as you can expect with an old house. There is a humidifier running in the basement, but even the bedrooms on the main level carried the smell. There are window unit air conditioners in each of the bedrooms, they are very old and very loud (can’t sleep with them on), and each one needs a new filter (as the indicator light suggests). The kitchen is designed strangely, with the drawers not fully opening (one hitting the dishwasher handle, and the other running into the stove). This was a minor flaw that added to the discomfort, but didn’t ruin anything.
