Great rental, close to the beach!
The house is fantastic. There is plenty of space, it's very clean, comfortable beds and couches, all decorated so cute. Couldn't ask for a better location, 15 minutes to several great beaches and the town of St Joseph, less than 5 minutes to grocery. We usually visit St Joseph's every year and we will definitely book this house again!
The neighborhood is quiet and 15 minutes from downtown St Joe. Everything was clean and stocked. The owners thought of a lot of details for a wonderful stay!

Great place - super cute decor and felt very clean (and I have high standards)! Great location, and truthfully had everything one could need :) Rhonda and Richard are also fabulous hosts because I left my airpods at the house and they shipped them to me immediately 💜 Thanks for a great time!

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!
we were stranded in St. Joes and the owners helped us get settled. It was a cute place and a great location. The owners are very helpful.

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!

Had a lovely weekend at St. Joe's
This cottage was perfect for a weekend getaway. The home was clean and beautifully decorated. Both the living room couch and beds were comfortable. There's plenty to do in the area. Me and my husband enjoyed the peace and quiet.
Thank you for having us Rich & Rhonda

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.

Peaceful home
We had a great time staying at Lincoln House! The blackout curtains in the bedroom were a big help. 5 minute drive to St. Joe, 10 minutes to Silver Beach. The amenities were exactly as listed. Easy check in and check out.
