    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.

    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.

    My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. Very clean and spacious. The blue couch in the living room is amazing I want one for my house. It's on a quiet and safe street. It's located next to an old church that can be rented. It's close to a lot of fun amazing beaches so much to do within a short drive. The host was responsive and very helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

    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!

    Everything was good. It was a little difficult for my 93 yr old mother to manage the walk to the porch. I would book again.

    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.
