About this property

St Joseph Luxury Home with Pool and Water Views within Harbor Shores

MESSAGE US FOR MID-LONG TERM RATES! You will love being situated in the Harbor Shores Resort where downtown St. Joseph's quaint shops and restaurants are just a fifteen minute walk or three minute drive away. Tiscornia Park and Jean Klock Park are iconic, Lake Michigan beaches and are three minutes by car! There is no need to travel to the water, as our home enjoys stunning views of the waterfront from the front porch, living room, and master suite. Each room has character and charm that impresses but still feels like home. On cool evenings, the front porch fire pit or the living room with its gas fireplace provide cozy spots for viewing the waterfront. The gourmet kitchen with a large center island, Maytag appliances, and a full array of cooking gear is the perfect place to create meals to remember. The large, master suite looks out on the Marina at Harbor Village and boasts a king size bed, TV, a double sink vanity, herringbone shower, and walk-in closet. As part of the master suite, there is another full size sofa sleeper area with its own 55 inch Fire TV. Another king bedroom, a queen bedroom, laundry room, and a guest bathroom complete the second floor. You'll love our home's proximity to the Inn at Harbor Shores with Plank's Restaurant, a coffee shop, spa, and seasonal outdoor dining. Feel like a swim? The pool complex at Harbor Village offers our guests pool privileges from June til mid September. Feel like a work out? We have a mini fitness center in our home with a weight bench, free weights, and a recumbent bike. With water all around us, we offer two kayaks, a paddleboard, beach chairs, and boogie board. Please note that every person using the water sports equipment must sign a liability release form.

Beautiful Property

This is a beautiful new home I would recommend to anyone staying in the St. Joseph / Benton Harbor area. The home is conveniently located to all your needs and is appointed with everything you need for your stay. The property manager is most attentive and available at a moments notice. Quite possibly the best rental we have stayed in!

Harbor Shores Townhome

This home is as good or better than advertised. Clean, well outfitted, and a great layout. The owners and hosts have really thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and worry free. One suggestion I made is to relocate the thermostat from the upstairs landing to the main bedroom as the warm air rising from the first floor shut off the heat leaving the bedrooms and bathrooms much colder.

Great house and great location!

We came to this house with a large age range of guests. 7 people in total starting at age 4. The house gave everyone plenty of space to relax and hangout. The property is in wonderful condition and has everything you will need to cook, play games, and make memories with your family. The fire pit outside was fun to sit around and kept us warm on the chilly January nights. The location was close to town but still quiet and not located on a busy street. It was also very close to the beach, splash pad and lighthouses. We will stay at this location again!
