Historic Silver Beach house - 1 block from downtown State St.

Location is great. 2nd time we stayed and the house is perfect

Great location in the heart of St. Joseph! This is an old historic house with lots of charm and plenty of room.

There was plenty of space, the kitchen was well stocked and having laundry available was a big plus. Excellent location. The house was decorated for Christmas which was really nice. Very nice accommodation.

The home was advertised as “No pets allowed,” When we got there the cleaning person was just leaving and commented that the prior guests had a large husky and she tried to get all the dog hair up, but wasn’t certain she got all of it. I looked up the listing Ava sure enough, it stated “no pets allowed.” Cleaner said many guests bring their dogs to this home. I communicated to the host that we booked the home under the assumption that no pets were allowed. Then I sent photos of the dog hair EVERYWHERE. The first night, sitting in the couch in the living room, I felt my asthma start kicking in. TBF, it also could have been that it was a 100 year old home and the basement where you need to go down to put the towels in the wash is old and musty so I’m sure there’s mold going on as well—which is to be expected in a home this old. Host did give us a $100 cleaning fee refund. Home was not as well furnished as we are used to with other VRBO’s. No salt, pepper, or any spices. No aluminum foil, waxed paper, ziplock bags, leftover containers. Many light bulbs missing. Listing states fireplace; it was actually just a piece of furniture with an electric fireplace for show only—no heat given off and in my mind, NOT a fireplace. Listing also stated there was a grill. The grill was in the attached garage and looked like it hadn’t seen the light of day in years. No way we were putting our food on it. The location is 10/10 but otherwise we would’ve passed on this rental.
