Monroe House - 2 Minute Drive to Lake Michigan ● Pet Friendly ● Beach Access

Welcome to Monroe House, a brand new, pet-friendly home just a 2-minute drive to Lake Michigan’s beaches!

Nestled in a peaceful wooded setting, this stylish, family-friendly retreat is perfect for a beach vacation, cozy weekend, or getaway with friends.

The home features 3 bedrooms, including a king suite with a daybed + trundle, a queen + bunks room, and a third queen; plenty of space for everyone. Designed by a professional interior designer, every detail has been thoughtfully curated for comfort and style.

Step outside to find three private decks, a hot tub under the stars, a fire pit for s’mores and stories, and a yard space set up for games. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee on the private upstairs deck or winding down after a day at the beach, Monroe House is made for making memories.

Forgot something? No worries! Dollar General is within walking distance for any last-minute essentials (like that toothbrush you swore you packed).

You’re just half a mile from Hagar Shore Beach and Roadside Park Beach, two gorgeous spots for swimming, sunset walks, or beach picnics. DiMaggio’s Pizza is nearby- grab a pizza and take it to the lake for a picnic with a view! Looking to explore more? You’re just 10 miles from St. Joseph and 12 miles from South Haven, two charming lakeside towns full of dining, ice cream, shopping, and attractions. Golf lovers will also appreciate several championship courses just a short drive away.

Just bring your beach towel and your favorite people; Monroe House will take care of the rest!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a private yard.

We loved this place! It was so cute and had everything we needed. My kids thought the game room was a nice touch. They also liked the hot tub. We were a short drive from the beach. It’s a bit off the beaten path for shopping but we also thought it was a great deal compared with other listings. Nice, clean interior and comfortable sleeping.

This is our second visit at Monroe House, because we loved it so much last summer. We loved it just as much this year! Everything is perfect, no concerns at all. Plus the beaches are so close, house is on a dead end, close to neighboring cities for food and activities. Owners are great. We will be back!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us! We had a truly relaxing and memorable stay here in Coloma. The house was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed—and more. We especially loved the upstairs deck, liked the peaceful backyard with amazing fire pit & the proximity to the beaches.This area is such a hidden gem—between the nearby beaches, wineries, and small-town charm, we had the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. We’re already looking forward to coming back!
