Juniper Presents: The Surf Loft - Vacay Downtown near Beach, Park & Amenities

Surf Loft in St. Joseph, MI - the best of all vacation worlds. A gorgeous living space. Fireplace, flat-screen TVs, pro Foosball. Huge posh deck with gas grill. Walk to the beach, park, harbor, arboretum or thru downtown's boutiques, shops, eateries, art museum and more! Featuring spacious open design LR-DR-Kitchen, fabulous natural light, elegant-comfy bedrooms and deluxe bathrooms. Your and your guests' R-and-R levels will be off the charts. Morning coffee of the finest kind, anyone? Oh, yeah.

THE SPACE
Walking into Surf Loft, located above Third Coast Surf Shop, you and your guests will be swept up by the deliciously spacious, beautifully lit, richly designed atmosphere. The combo platter of elegance and comfort is amazing! The living room-dining room-kitchen’s open design lends an extra layer of uncrowded roominess, and the hand-selected furniture, artwork and accessories all add to the plush, metro-chic environment.

Feeling laid back? Chill in front of the gas fireplace and watch a favorite show or movie on the extra-wide flat-screen TV. Care for a little gamesmanship? Invite a fellow guest to a game – or two or three – of Foosball, given there’s a top-of-the-line table sitting there in the living room! And speaking of high-quality, the fully-equipped kitchen features everything y’all may need to create scrumptious meals or snacks, including stainless-steel appliances and a host of essentials you’ll enjoy dipping into. Plus, there’s a way-nice stone-top island we hear is a popular gathering place for morning coffee – and we set you up with only Keurig’s good stuff, by the way – or any vacay day planning. Want to share a meal in a more formal setting? We’ve gotcha’ covered with a sweet 6-seat dining table to meet your dining needs. There’s also a long hall table we’ve heard guests say serves nicely as a workstation, for those who may want to get some remote work in.

Both bedrooms are luxuriously appointed, have Ensuite bathrooms, and feature top-quality bedding and linens, to ensure a sound sleep and sweet dreams.

Bedroom 1: 1 King bed
Bedroom 2: 1 King bed and 1 twin bed

Both bedrooms feature Ensuite bathrooms – the Master bathroom has a walk-in tiled shower, deluxe twin-sink vanity and high-end fixtures. The 2nd bedroom’s Ensuite bathroom has a shower-soaker tub combo with a Rain Shower head. It’s highlighted by a deluxe vanity and high-end fixtures. Plus, there’s a washer-dryer combo and all the essentials to meet your and your guests’ laundry needs.

Out on the huge deck, you and your guests can relax at the stylish patio set - with 6 sleek rattan chairs – or set yourselves down in the comfy outdoor couch and chairs set. Either way, we highly recommend sipping a glass of vino or your favorite beverage while counting stars at night. And if y’all get hungry for some lip-smacking barbecue, there’s also a top-notch gas grill out there for grilling to your heart’s content!

Being at Surf Loft, you’re literally just a short walk or stone’s throw from a superb Lake Michigan beach – the ever-popular Silver Beach, named one of the Top 10 Family Beaches in America by Parents Magazine – where you can also check out the Silver Beach Carousel and ride one of its 50 handmade carousel figures. You’re within walking distance, too, of lots of other cool amenities, including a county park, St. Joseph’s Harbor, an art museum and arboretum, plenty of eateries, stylish boutiques, antique shops and other downtown places to explore. Nearby, you’ll also find six other excellent beaches, some with majestic sand dunes, hiking and biking trails galore, wineries and brew-pubs, golf courses, and the region’s largest recreational harbor, with all sorts of water-related activities to dive into, from boat, jet-ski, kayak, canoe or paddleboard rentals to day or evening cruises, fishing expeditions and more.

Great Location!
This is a beautiful apartment in a great location! Very close to all of the fun things to do in St. Joseph. The grandkids loved the Curious Kids museum and the playground by the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Downtown And Fabulous!
We couldn't have asked for a better location - shops, restaurants, activities and of course the beautiful beach. The balcony was a great place to relax in between. The kitchen was very well equipped - best I've experienced in a VRBO property. Beds/towels comfortable. There were 5 of us and there was plenty of space. Felt very roomy. There is a lot behind the unit that is all day parking so that accommodated our 2 vehicles without issue. Only warning is that the stairs to enter the unit are narrow and steep, so one of us (age 82) found it challenging. This stay was perfection - would highly recommend!
