The hosts have clearly worked hard to provide a clean and comfortable rental. The beds and furniture are comfortable and the kitchen is well-stocked with whatever cookware you might need. The hosts are very responsive. The Lincoln House is a short drive to Lake Michigan and was perfect for our needs. We would absolutely rent again!

Quiet And Restful
We were pleasantly surprised. The accommodations were comfortable and quiet. Communication was quick and easy and we very much enjoyed our stay. The two different beds and assortment of pillows made it easy to find the right sleeping arrangement, and the location was not only easy to get to, but also a near-perfect central location for what we were hoping to do while there. It was a very, very nice stay. Again, thank you so much for sharing your place with us.

Great little two bedroom
House was clean and exactly as pictured. Only downside was not knowing that walking places isn’t an option due to proximity and lack of sidewalks but that’s not really specific to this property and more just something we weren’t aware of!

Another Great Family Getaway!
We love staying at the Lincoln House! This was our second time and we will be back again next year! Rhonda & Richard always keep an immaculate property and we love the updates they did since our last stay -- especially the beautiful outdoor deck! They are very responsive hosts and always create a warm welcome and the perfect home away from home for a family vacation -- thank you! :)))

SAND SO SOFT AT SILVER BEACH!
House was well supplied😁 Fans were a little noisy, but we did sleep. We needed to do more research to find were to RENT dune buggies, and to charter a short boat ride. We did the last evening figure out the TAXI BOAT😁 Car show and Farmers market was some good activities. Loved Silver Beach, enjoyed the seagulls!, sand Sooo SOFT and CLEAN. Volleyball and splash pad nice additives. Water was too rough for us first timers to try paddle boarding . St Joeseph and Silver Beach is a place we’ll come back too. 👍🏼

I returned to the Saint Joe area to visit family. They literally lived around the corner from the rental. It was so convenient to the downtown area, the beaches, the stores and everything. It was super clean and super convenient. It will be my regular place to stay in the future.

We enjoyed our stay!
We very much enjoyed our short stay in St. Joseph! The house was super cute and everything was spotless. You can tell the home was recently renovated. Wifi and tv access were great. We made day trips to Warren Dunes State Park, Silver Beach and Jean Klock Beach. The location is wonderful to access different areas. All about 15 min drive or less. I recommend Silver Beach Pizza, Clementine's Too, and The Mason Jar for meals! Jean Klock Beach is our favorite every year. It is relaxing and much less busy than the other popular beaches. We have an infant and it was nice that the home was equipped with a baby gate, high chair, and pack/play. We even enjoyed a camp fire in the evenings with a sky full of stars. Overall, would highly recommend the Lincoln House. Owners were wonderful to work with. Very easy to communicate with. We would love to return!

Super clean and comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay here, the place is exceptionally clean. It was a good size for our family of 4 (2 small children). It is an older home that has been renovated, so keep in mind it has a small restroom. Great to have a washer and dryer to use on site. Location is close to St Joes (10 min drive), the neighborhood seemed quiet as we didn't see many others around at all but we were gone most of the days.
