Perfect place
Thanks Sandra your place was a home away from home for us. Nice and warm, clean, a great garage and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood is charming and we had fun at the Krasl and downtown shops. We were sad to leave. Thank you from two Aussies on safari 😊

Will stay here again!
Lovely property on a quiet street. Within walking distance to the beach, and town for shopping and meals. Comfortable accommodations. A garage for my car, a big plus! The walls are shared with another apartment, but you can barely hear them. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, and look forward to the next visit!

Cozy and Convenient Place to Stay
Blue Spruce Haven turned out to be a wonderful place to stay while exploring St. Joseph!! The house was clean and large enough for my husband and I to feel quite comfortable. Like other reviewers, our favorite was the sitting room; as we had a few rainy days, we were quite cozy in there, reading. My other favorite thing was being allowed to use the garage for our car, bikes and the use of their beach chairs. This place is also extremely convenient to the beach and the town.

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Lusher-Waterhouse

Host profile image
Hello all. Our names are Bruce Waterhouse and Sandy Lusher-Waterhouse. We live in Solon, OH which is a suburb of Cleveland. Bruce grew up in Niles, Michigan which is near St. Joe. We love the area and decided to purchase this property when it became available. We have frequently rented small homes or apartments for our summer vacation as it just made so much sense with a family of 4. This way you have all the conveniences of home but none of the chores, or telephone calls, or bill paying or...you get the point. It also significantly reduces your costs for the week! Please feel free to google us. I know it can be hard to mail your money off to a stranger! Bruce is an attorney in Cleveland and Sandy is Manager of Volunteers for a social service agency. Thanks for considering Blue Spruce Haven.

Why they chose this property

You can park your car and walk from Blue Spruce Haven. Right down the hill is the nationally renown Silver Beach. Stay on the bluff and you walk through historic St. Joe into downtown with lots of cute shops and restaurants.
