About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Joyce House

You will fall in love with this sweet family-friendly cottage, close to all the action and a peaceful retreat. Five minutes from downtown Benton Harbor, the golf course at Harbor Shores, and the beach in St. Joe's, it is a great location for a get-away!

The Joyce House is on a quiet cul-de-sac set away from the main road. It sits on an acre with a large yard, great front porch, and a tree-lined creek on one side.

All the amenities a family needs are included: pack-and-play, toddler bed, infant bathtub, play table, high chair, pet bowls, and a dog chain in the backyard. Make memories with your stay here!

Family fun
Except for the overgrown grass, the house was fabulous. It was roomy, comfortable, and decorated to be welcoming & homey. Relaxing from the moment you entered

Perfect for what we needed!
The Joyce House was the perfect find for us! It was a 4 minute drive from Stonegate Manor which is where we had a wedding to attend. The beds were comfy, the kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. The firepit was a wonderful surprise to hang out around on a beautiful fall night. Will definitely stay again when in the area!

Fantastic Summer Getaway
We had a wonderful time at the Joyce house! The location was minutes from beautiful lake michigan and lovely St. Joseph. It was wonderful to be so close to parks, shopping, beach and amenities yet in a quiet neighborhood, tucked away. The host was incredibly responsive and very attentive to any inquiry. She had great suggestions on beaches and restaurants. The home was extremely comfortable and had everything we would need from beach towels to boogie boards. Beds were comfortable, everyone slept well. Will definitely stay here again!
