About this property
★4 Bedrooms! Close to beaches, golf and wineries!
Have fun with the whole family at this cozy cottage less than one mile from some of the best beaches in Southwest Michigan! The open floor plan and backyard deck make this a great getaway for a family or group of friends.
You are only:
1 min to Harbor Shores Golf Course (named 2024 Michigan Golf Course of the Year)
2 min to Rocky Gap Beach
6 min to Silver Beach and St Joseph's fabulous downtown
This home has enough room for 5-6 people with 1300 square feet of living space and it can fit 3 cars in the driveway.
Here's what you may not love:
The house has only one bathroom.
This is a cape cod style from the 1940s and the stairs are not very wide. Due to the nature of cape cod styles, the upstairs is warmer during the day. However, once the sun goes down, the upstairs rooms are very comfortable. In order to improve air circulation, we provide fans.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Ryan Matthysse
Hello! We are Ryan and Sue and would love to welcome you to our home! We have a deep love for the beauty of southwest Michigan, having spent most of our lives near the lakeshore. Currently, we are living in Indiana but love making weekend trips to Michigan throughout the year and this home has been wonderful for our family to enjoy together! We love sharing it with others and offering recommendations on outdoor activities, restaurants and wineries in the area. It truly is one of the most beautiful areas of the midwest!
Why they chose this property
We love this area because of its proximity to several of the top beaches in Michigan. There is so much to do within 5 minutes of our property - golfing, biking, kayaking or a day at the beach! The restaurants in both St Joseph and Benton Harbor are outstanding. Our neighborhood is safe and extremely close to Lake Michigan.
What makes this property unique
This cozy cottage is perfect for a family, couples getaway or girls weekend. With 4 bedrooms, each person can have their own space while still being close. Please read the property description to get a better idea of the bedroom layout and amount of people. A trailhead for walking and biking the Harbor Shores Nature & Fitness Trail System is 0.25 miles down the road! North Pier Brewery is within walking distance. The Arts District of Benton Harbor is a 2 minute drive. If you enjoy exploring lakeshore communities, this is a great place to stay! On the other hand, if simply relaxing is what you need, our home has a comfortable living room and spacious deck in the back!
