About this property

Beautiful Waterfront Home on Baugo Bay

Beautiful River 3-4 bedroom house over looking Baugo Bay on the St Joesph river, only 10 miles from Notre Dame Campus. Takes 18 minutes to get there, we worked there 10 years! It really doesn't get any better than this, the breath taking view is amazing from inside the house or outside on one of the 5 decks. There are places to sleep everywhere and plenty of full bathrooms. The house also is handicap accessible. If you want to play, you can swim right off the pier or relax in the hot tub. We also have games, Pool table, corn hole, darts, Wii, X-box, and there are TV's everywhere. Equipped for more fun than you will have time to enjoy and built for comfort when you just can't play anymore.

The house was very accommodating for my large group (8 people). The host was very communicative right up front, with no problems getting a hold of one another and no problems discussing and addressing any concerns. Everything was tip-top clean, and plenty of both private space and social space. Total comfort in sleeping areas, and plenty of comfy furniture and entertainment (pool table/multiple video game consoles/multiple television) in social areas for all. It was easy to hang out and get around without stepping on anyone, but there were spaces where you could separate and curl up with your phone or a book if you needed a break. The hot tube was very clean and well maintained, and was definitely in use for most of the waking hours. All other amenities (like washer/dryer/dishwasher, etc.) were present although I didn't have an opportunity to use them. I am hoping to stay at the property in the future for a longer duration and during a warmer season to take advantage of the water activities. Much better option for group than any hotel and less than 30mins from Notre Dame (about 11 miles).

Beautiful view!

Gregg’s place was so comfortable and homey and peaceful for a get together of sisters and friends to celebrate my sister who is getting married this month. We had several people coming from different directions, and there was plenty of parking space. The view from the decks was one of our favorite parts, but the hot tub, ample outdoor spaces and seating, comfy living room, comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen were very appreciated and enjoyed as well. Everything was set up and ready for our arrival, with plenty of towels, extra blankets and even fans for the bedrooms. This place did not disappoint!!

We just stayed one night! Home was on a beautiful lake with nice outdoor amenities. Beds were fine, but small and thin mattress (and one queen was a blow up) it is an older home but adequate. Host was extremely responsive and helpful.

Book another place

Old pictures on app. This house is lived in. Dirty furniture. Oven door doesn't close. Door opens to an elevator in house which you could fall down fifteen feet. Drawers all full and nowhere to put luggage. Lots of extension cords everywhere {fire hazard}. Odd room setup downstairs. Bathroom downstairs is very cramped. Not worth the price!

Beautiful Views

The views from the decks are beautiful. The house does sleep 10 but there are not 4 bedrooms; really only 2. We ended up renting a boat on a different lake because the St Joseph River is not good for a novice boat driver, plus the boat at the house was not operating. Hot tub was great but there is no fire pit. All in all we had a nice peaceful time with family and enjoyed the sunset.

Some concerns, but net positive

One of the things to consider is that although this listing states 2 queen beds, that may not necessarily be true. One of the queen beds was locked in a room, and the renter stated we weren’t allowed to use it. Instead we had one queen bed in a room, the two twin beds, the full futon, and one air mattress. This made it difficult for us to coordinate sleeping as we had 10 people which this listing states we can accommodate, but only if some people sleep on the couch. Additionally, we were there for the weekend and brought a lot of food. The renter had his fridge half full with food already making it difficult to place what we brought. We made it work. But it would be better if he had a separate fridge where he places his belongings when guests are there. We couldn’t find the garbage can in the beginning, but after messaging him he quickly told us where it was. He was very responsive. Otherwise, the place was very clean, and was stocked with dinner plates and utensils. The sunsets were beautiful and they had a great patio that had gorgeous flowers.

9 adults gathering for a football game at Notre Dame. Enough beds, bedding and towels for all. It was very comfortable for everyone when we were relaxing, drinking and eating after the game. Great communication with Gregg made check in and out a breeze. I would definitely stay here again.

Awesome stay for large groups!

We rented Gregg’s spot for a 30th birthday party and had an awesome time. Gregg was very responsive and communicative host, and the space was more than enough for 10 sleeping over and up to 14 coming over during the day. The varied levels of rooms and decks provided lots of different environments for people to hang out in. It was a very food heavy weekend, so the propane and grill were lifesavers, although we did have some issues with the oven so keep that in mind. It was also helpful that we brought blow up mattresses as there were 4 beds and the rest of the sleeping area were couches. Overall a ton to do and a perfect weekend!

Family getaway

Gregg, the property owner was super friendly and very easy to work with! Property was expected as listed! There were 7 of us and there was plenty of beds and sleeping options available-he even set out an extra air mattress which did help! Beds were super comfortable. View was beautiful. Home had what we needed for our stay. We griled one night. Went out one night. Went to local winery. Relaxed in hot tub. Fished and overall enjoyed the entire home. Shopping close by and neighbors were super friendly as well! Would definitely recommend this home!

The house is so comfortable and so many things to do. Just wonderful!!!!
