About this property

Newer Beachfront Contemporary, Unparalleled Views

This stunning 3 level contemporary single family home was completed the end of 2015. Everything is new! House is located on a bluff with gorgeous views of Lake Michigan from virtually every room in the house. Property includes 200ft of private beach (NOTE: there are 225 stairs down to beach). 7 bedrooms (1 bunk room), 5 1/2 baths, 2 separate entertainment areas. Perfect for 2 or 3 families. Kitchen and main living area are on the 2nd floor with a HUGE wrap around deck with spectacular views. There are two 3rd floor Master suites with huge bathrooms and their own 3rd floor deck. Sunset viewing and fires on the beach a must!

Our house has the best of both worlds...private lakefront get away from the hustle and bustle, but it is only 5 miles north of downtown St. Joseph. St. Joe is a GREAT harbor town with nice restaurants, adorable shops, and an old-fashioned dime store. Very family friendly with a indoor merry-go-round and hands-on kid's museum steps from the beach. World class golf, vineyards/wine tasting, and u-pick apples and peaches. Come check it out!!

The house was the perfect home base for our family during our daughter's wedding weekend. Plenty of space for our multi-generational family group who were in town for the festivities. There were a lot of stairs for the older folks to navigate, but overall the multi-level living space gave everyone in our big group privacy and space to spread out. The views of Lake Michigan are stunning from all of the floor to ceiling windows, and were the perfect backdrop for family photos! We did brave the 200 steps down to the beach and back up (quite a workout), but were rewarded with a beautiful stretch of beach to walk along during out stay.

Lake Michigan 2025

Outstanding property with all the amenities. Plenty of beach toys, chairs, towels, umbrellas and the like. The house was spectacular with sleeping spaces and bathrooms for everyone. Very impressed with the utensils and dishes in the kitchen (they had everything one could need). Very clean, well-appointed with backup linens, bath towels and supplies. Allowed 3 family's plenty of together and alone space. Only drawback was the steps to the beach for the little ones.

Best Family Vacation Ever

We loved everything about this awesome house and property! Even the many stairs down to the beach are worth what awaits you at the bottom. The beach was wonderful and our children and grandchildren had the time of their lives. We are grateful for this time together!

Great Stay!

We came for a long weekend for a milestone birthday celebration. Ten people, three generations. The house was amazing. Really spectacular. Beware, the beach was very pretty, but the stairs to the beach are steep and uneven. It can also get windy on the deck, making grilling a challenge.

Great family reunion

12 cousins from 6 different states gathered for a reunion week at this wonderful home! Pictures are very accurate but really don’t do it justice. We had mild temps in the high 70’s - low 80’s, good for shirtsleeves. Sunsets were spectacular. The kitchen was among the best stocked of any VRBO I’ve experienced - this includes spices and baking supplies, 4 high quality cookie sheets and other cookware, plus lots of prep and serving pieces. Ample seating inside and on the deck was much appreciated. Puzzles and games abounded. (I hadn’t played Yahtzee since I was a kid!)The place was clean and sparkly for our arrival! The beds were made well and stayed tucked in at the bottom. Plenty of cleaning supplies were available. Our host/owner communicated promptly and provided excellent before and after instructions via PDF prior to our arrival. I would love to stay here again.

Best view

They offer a very beautiful modern house, and the best view of the Lake Michigan. The house is very clean and we really appreciated the white impeccable linen! Kitchen is well equipped. Fire pit was great, and has a best location on the property. We enjoyed the private beach and the beach chairs every day, despite the number of steps. We spent most of our time on the beautiful big terrace with enough sitting for the whole grup to eat together. The owner responded very quickly to our questions. Everyone was happy with this property and we are all planning to return next year. Thank you for renting it!!

We had an awesome time with our 3 adult children, their spouses and our 8 grandchildren. Room for everyone! Fabulous time. My only critique is that the fridge is way too small for the size of the house.
