Perfect stay near the beach.

This quaint beach house has everything you need for a perfect beach getaway. The backyard with a fire pit is the ideal spot to wind down after a day in the sun. The host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, providing everything from dog accessories to beach towels and even an arcade machine for the kids. If you're looking for a cozy and welcoming place to stay by the beach, this is it.

Vacation Week at Sandy Pineapple

We had a great time at the Sandy Pineapple! The VRBO listing was accurate and we arrived to find a very clean home that was very well stocked. Views of the sunset from the screened front porch, the fenced back yard for our 2 small dogs and the short walk to the beach were wonderful amenities. Thanks Jenn and Betsy for your great communications starting on Day 1 when we booked our stay!

Quaint and Cute: great location!

The location was perfect! We were only minutes from the beach- and it was an easy walk. Our mother, who turned 75, was in heaven! She walked to the beach every morning- and sometimes at night too. As did the rest of us. Upon arrival we were surprised by towels and bowls for our dogs! They enjoyed the fenced in backyard. It was great sitting outside or in the enclosed patio for our morning coffee. Very peaceful. The dining room table was perfect for our group of 8- not just to eat but also to play board games. It’s also not far from St. Joseph Bay where my brother and the kids went clamming a few nights. Having the Dollar General Marketplace nearby was very convenient when we decided to make s’mores over the firepit. We all very much enjoyed our stay!
