Spa House:On Lake Michigan w/ Pool, Hot Tub, Sauna
The Spa House is for those who are looking to get away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life. Located just north of St. Joseph, our house is on a 1.4 acre wooded lot on a dead-end street with a fenced-in backyard for plenty of privacy. This tranquil property sits on a bluff with sweeping views of Lake Michigan. Relax on the large deck, lounge poolside (20' by 40' in-ground pool), or unwind in the hot tub and watch the spectacular Lake Michigan sunsets.
This 3000 sq. foot home is ideally suited for multiple or extended families vacationing together. The house has one King, and four Twins in the two main-floor bedrooms, and one Queen w/ a crib plus two Queens on the garden level. The house also has a lakeside sun room that includes cathedral ceilings with skylights and a sauna. Wireless Internet is accessible throughout the home. Full week rentals only June-August.
Swimming Pool: Our heated swimming pool comes with a safety cover for your peace of mind while vacationing at the Spa House. The cover is on a motorized track that seals the pool with the push of a button.
The Spa House is also available for off season rental as a weekend scrapbooking retreat. See link below.
Do to the high water and erosion, we no longer have access to the beach.

FANTASTIC!! We loved everything about this home.
The beach was fabulous, had several campfires down there, so private. We all enjoyed the sauna, hot tub, pool and this beautiful home. So much to do yet so relaxing.
This house is much nicer in person than pictured. There is a beautiful sun room, a tucked away sitting area, and an extra family room on the lower level. The pool was such a bonus and the sunsets were amazing!
Our family had a great time! The house was very clean. Greg was nice and had great communication. The house was close to downtown St. Joseph and the beach!
We had a great week. Kids played in the pool all day everyday. No beach access from the house, but views were amazing with great sunsets every night and multiple nearby public beaches that weren't too crowded. Beds were comfortable, well-stocked kitchen and kids loved the extra pool toys to play with. We would love to come back.
Beautiful home. Beautiful yard and pool. Hot tub great. Greg very helpful. He was immediately available for questions or one small problem with a stair step to garage. Great week
We had a great week. The weather cooperated and the kids played in the pool every day. We enjoyed the pool toys/floats that were available. Also saw some wonderful sunsets from the deck. It’s unfortunate that there is no longer beach access from the house but we went to the beach just north a couple of miles. It wasn’t very busy – probably helped that we avoided the weekends. Would love to see some updates to the garden level but we appreciated ample pillows and blankets that were available and multiple areas on the top floor for all to congregate. We would love to come back.
House was wonderful and Greg the host was even better. Any question we had Greg was available to us. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Very spacious clean and wonderful for family and friends (and small children)
We had a wonderful week at this house - the view from the backyard is beautiful and the pool was wonderful. The house had lots of board games, some Legos, and books which were great for kids and the family. There were several different spaces for lounging and visiting with family indoors (not all pictured in listing). Kitchen and pantry was very well stocked. Would certainly return again.
My family and I had a great week enjoying both the pool /hot tub and Lake Michigan at the nearby Rocky Gap Park. We loved having 3 full baths, as we were a group of 5 sisters and kids/grandkids. Greg, the owner, was very quick to respond to questions. And, of course, the sunset views were remarkable!
Despite a rainy week, we still enjoyed our stay. The main level of this home was beautiful, the kitchen was well stocked, and the view of the pool and Lake Michigan outstanding. There is a nice wooden deck overlooking the backyard and pool that had plenty of seating. The pool deck also had plenty of furniture to laze around on.
There was ample room for 6 adults and 4 children, indoors and out, even at mealtime. We were able to make use of the pool a few of the days, but did not use the hot tub or sauna. The pool is large, but there is a limited shallow end for little swimmers.
The master bedroom was gorgeous with a wonderful view. The kids' room was located conveniently next to it. The two bedrooms down below were adequate but could use updating.
My family enjoyed our time at this property. The pool is large and very nice, though the drop off could be marked a little better. There was plenty of space for the family and nice areas if you needed some quiet time. Very well equipped.
BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS!
Place is clean and proved to be a perfect place for my adult children and grandchildren.
Lots of amenities. Place is clean and well thought out.

Nice home and very comfortable.
In general, we enjoyed our stay. Overall the house was comfortable. LOVED the sunporch. We got a lot of use out of that. Although we were right on Lake Michigan, there are 155 STEEP steps to walk down to access it. My kids (who are 18-25 y/o) ventured down several times, but my husband has MS and cannot handle those steps coming back up. Consequently, we never were able to enjoy the lake up close. The only issue we had was the dishwasher was not emptying completely and I was bailing the water after it finished (otherwise it would get stinky). I texted the owner and let him know.

Exceeded our expections!
Family of 6 adults and 2 grand kids spent a wonderful & relaxing vacation here! We all loved the pool & hot tub and did spend 1/2 days at the beach too. We were thankful that all beach things could be stored at bottom of stairs as it was a trek up and down.
We already reserved a week next year!!!

Perfect birthday getaway
We went to the Spa House with some friends to celebrate my 35th birthday. I can honestly say it was the best birthday I've ever had! Everyone loved having the option of the beach, hot tub, pool or sauna to relax. A bit chilly for the pool, except for the adventurous types, but we had perfect hot tub weather and the lake water was doable. The beach was gorgeous, clean and very private. Great for dogs. Be prepared - the steps up from the beach are quite a workout, because the house is on a sort of cliff, but that makes it all the more beautiful. We never saw one other person on the beach the entire weekend, but perhaps it's because the weather was a bit cool (60's). We're already talking about returning next summer when the weather is warmer. Oh, and if you have a projector, bring it, they have a screen in the basement!
