Family-friendly vacation rentals in St. Joseph County

We loved our weekend on long lake. We had a nice relaxing time hanging out, fishing, enjoying a fire in the evening, etc. Also very much appreciated how stocked the house was with small things we needed, but wouldnt think to bring, like ziplock bags or just common kitchen tools. Overall, a great spot to chill on the lake and Laura and Steve are great hosts who respond quickly if there are any issues.

We loved our two nights here. Joseph really did put together something special here and I doubt you’ll find anything else like it. The scenery was gorgeous this Spring, and the wood burning stove and tubs were awesome as expected. The cabin itself is one of the most unique things I’ve seen, well built and insulated. We will be back!

I'll book again

Clean, cute and peaceful. The host didn't require a lot of clean up tasks before departure. Kitchen well stocked with utensils to cook.

a very relaxing & beautiful place for a family. love the view from the front porch & the yard plus a great swimming area for the kids. will definitely be back

This is the third time we've stayed at Lori's place. Our family of 12, coming from Cleveland and Chicago, to spend time on the water and together. The kitchen is nice and big with plenty of cookware for gourmet meals. The 2 mile loop around the lake is quiet and a good route for running. There's lot of space to spread out and enjoy the fresh air.

Rented for the weekend with friends for a quick getaway and had a great time! Beautiful and peaceful spot! Very clean and Steve was fantastic to deal with. There was enough space inside and out for all 6 of us to relax and take in the lake view, dine, play games and just enjoy our time together. Great place to stay!

2 beautiful bedrooms, third bedroom is a children's bedroom. Although an adult could sleep on the lower bunk, the mattress was not comfortable. 4th bed is in the basement. The house is big and nicely decorated and we had a great stay. 1 issue with water heater but owner responded to text quickly and we were able to resolve the problem ourself. We recommend this place.

The home was beautiful with stunning views from driving to the home and from the property. The home was spacious and gave us plenty of room to relax without sitting on top of each other. The extra space was perfect. We really enjoyed the large kitchen and island to prepare food and eat! I highly recommend this beautiful home as it is peaceful, relaxing and close to shopping for any needs!

Great place! Very handicap friendly, with a wide open floor plan, large deck, and an accessible bathroom. We would certainly return here. Beautiful and clean lake! Both the check in and check out process were easy and well explained. Cheryl was a great host! Extremely helpful and responsive.

This was a fun & relaxing vacation for us, our kids and the grandkids. We really never left the place except to take the boat out. The kids and grandkids had a blast in the water and the shallow water was perfect for the young ones - they especially liked the water trampoline! The house is very spacious so we never felt crowded and my daughter was able to ‘work from home’ there utilizing the desk upstairs and the picnic table on the deck one day. The kitchen offered us everything we needed for food preparation so we didn’t have to go out to eat. We would recommend Karen’s place to others.

Great location and house! Perfect for group of family or friends.

This Lakes James retreat is just as promised. It is bright, clean, has everything you need to feel right at home, and the view of the lake is spectacular. Due to the timing of our stay, we weren't able to use the lake front cabin, but it would be perfect for a summer visit. Travis is extremely responsive to questions. We highly recommend this location to others.

This is our 2nd time coming here! Perfect location a winter break, quick little drive for skiing, tubing and tobogganing. Highly recommend eating at Brewsters Food and Spirits and 120 Taphouse.

Great host! Very friendly and helpful. Beautiful place to get away and relax. Enjoyed our stay and Amanda and Tim made it perfect for our family.

This is a must-stay for any FLW fan. The owners have done a wonderful job preserving the home and history. We especially enjoyed reading the letters from the family to FLW.

Stayed for a weekend with mom and sisters. Excellent for what we needed! David was communicative when we needed recommendations or had issues (minor ones like switches not working, etc). Would definitely stay again!

Wow! This house really hit us the jack pot for our stay! What an amazing experience we had. The hosts were wonderful and very easy to communicate with. Smooth experience and no headache. My friends were all beyond satisfied with the house and the way it was hidden behind the woods for privacy. Not only that but a walking distance to the lake! The boat experience was also awesome and very smooth! Loved every single second of it! I Would love to rent this house again! Will definitely come back again!
