We had a nice stay here . The home was recently updated , clean and well appointed . We enjoyed the area , close to just about everything we wanted to do .
James was easy to contact , and responded to calls in short order !!
Great location on the St. Joseph River. We caught several small mouth bass off the sea wall. Nice quiet neighborhood and it is close to everything in town.
This was such a perfect retreat for my immediate family of 4 and my parents. The house is clean, and beautifully renovated with nice closet systems in each bedroom. We enjoyed fishing from the backyard and watching the river from inside the home.
The description of the property was accurate. The host was responsive and provided clear guidance before and during our stay. The home was very well kept and the location was very convenient to South Bend Airport and St. Joseph. We would definitely stay again and recommend this to our friends and family.
This home was perfect in every way. Beautiful river views. Home set up was perfect for family meals. We truly enjoyed it. The only complaint we have is we wish we stayed longer
We had a beautiful stay on the peaceful & mesmerizing river from early mornings- drinking coffee, watching the fish jump & lounging outdoors. The inside of this rambling ranch was nicely renovated & had comfort, functionality in the kitchen/baths & awesome views of the river. We especially loved sitting by the windows in the LR & watching the lazy river go by!
The house is very nicely appointed, great condition, and clean. The location is close to St. Jo and many other area of interest (hiking, fishing, beaches). The property owner is easy to work with - super communication. We would stay again.
Repeat trip to St Joseph’s! We enjoyed this house so much last year we decided to return. The layout is perfect for our family and dogs. Great memories the 2nd time around too!
Lovely quiet setting on the river, and perfect house with 3 toddlers. Beautifully updated and clean. Perfect place to relax after a day at the beach just 15 minutes away.
Great home. Beautifully remodeled and decorated. Great spot on the river yet convenient to everything. Communication with hosts is excellent. Will definitely stay here again.
The property is beautiful. It was so peaceful on the lake, hearing, and watching all the little animals. Nearly everything you would need is provided. The communication from booking through our entire stay was excellent. I would stay there again.
This home met all the amenities my group was looking for and more! James is an amazing host & great with communicating. He was very attentive to our request and met them. The property had breathtaking views of the river and provided us with all the fishing space we needed! I would highly recommend this spot.
My family and I have stayed here 3 times already and each time, we have a wonderful stay! The house is clean, property is nice, and location is awesome! The house has everything you need and can fit a large family very comfortably!! And James is a great host. We’ll be back! Thank you!!!
James & Carrie were such gracious host! Thank you for adding your touch of class to my birthday weekend!
This was our second stay and was just as enjoyable as the first. The house is beautiful and comfortable, our home away from home. We look forward to our next visit!
We spent a relaxing week in this beautiful house right on the river. The interior is beautiful and well stocked with everything you may need. We cooked at home most nights in the spacious kitchen and enjoyed time sitting and watch sing the birds at the feeder and boats on the river as well as sitting around a fire at night.
What a fantastic, quiet, beautiful and comfortable place! We will try to book it again! The house is very nice - high end appliances, comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms, and unbelievable backyard right on the river! Thank you!
Very clean hand updated home. Quick responses from property manager . Beautiful views of river, quiet neighborhood . Perfect home to relax , home stocked with essentials .
This property was the ultimate staycation retreat! The house was beautiful inside and out. The highlight of this home was not the superb renovation, picture perfect out of home and gardens décor, or 1/2 an acre of private waterfront access with picturesque views. The highlight was the birdfeeder in front of the living room window. I truly enjoyed bird watching.

About the host
Hosted by James Ihssen
James and Carrie have spent their careers in real estate and interior design, and they have combined their talents to create the perfect family retreat. With their two small kids they enjoy all the outdoor activities that St. Joseph has to offer. We are excited for you to enjoy our house on the river! We love the location, peaceful and serene, yet close to downtown and the beaches. The Picture is my Daughter on the Private Dock with a Beautiful Sunset in the background.
