Lovely Long Weekend
Property was clean, well maintained, a quick walk to the beach, and perfect for our two families to spend a holiday weekend together. The host was even able and willing to accomodate a last minute date change. We would love to return!

Great Neighborhood and Home
This is our favorite neighborhood in the Sawyer/St. Joe/New Buffalo area, hands down! The beach is never too busy, the walk to the beach is quick and easy, and on a whole, the neighborhood is quiet. This house was perfectly suited for our needs, with ample bedroom space for my family of five as well as my parents and our dog, a swingset in the backyard, and good living spaces. The only thing I'd change would be the sheets, as the ones on our bed were quite pilly and rough, but that's an easy fix! We would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing private beach access
Our family stayed here in August. The location was amazing, just a short 10 min walk to the private beach which was much larger than expected with not a lot of people. It’s also close to cute restaurants and coffee shops (Whistle Stop) and a short ride to downtown New Buffalo. The house was spacious and cottage like and perfect for our stay!

Birthday weekend in Lakeside
This was our second year in a row coming up for the Columbus Day weekend and it was another memorable trip. Between the fall festival, the pumpkin patch, the beach, and the surrounding wineries and breweries, the whole family had a blast. The house was the perfect set up once again and the kids loved playing on the playground in the backyard. Can’t wait to do it again next year..

Great place for a family Christmas
My family stayed here for Christmas and it was wonderful!! The place had everything we needed. The only issue we had was the tiny tv in the main living room was very hard to see. I would love to visit again.

Great stay
We were very impressed with Jamie’s place. The inside was very clean and spacious. The outside was equally as great with a large backyard with a very nice play set. This place is ideal for families with younger kids and we will definitely be back. We highly recommend this house!

Perfect Get-Away!
We had a wonderful stay at this house! Plenty of room for our family of 5 and pup, very clean, well-stocked and just a 5-minute walk to the beach! There was even a bottle of wine and s’mores supplies for us to enjoy when we arrived! We loved every part of it and hope to return next year!

Great Beach Stay
Quick walk to the beach. Private backyard (trees, bushes that created privacy from neighbors). We had 6 adults and am glad we didn’t invite more friends - it would’ve been too tight. We would definitely return!

A great beach house trip!
Jamie's beach rental could not have been a better fit for our family! First, Jamie was so kind, generous, and responsive with our questions. The location of the beach house was perfect and it was so nice to not have to fight for space at the beach. My kiddos loved making smores and playing in the backyard playset when we weren't at the beach. The location, hosts, and cleanliness of the beach house will definitely bring us back. :). Thanks for a great trip!
