Idyllic A-Frame in Michigan's Harbor Wine Country- Pet friendly!
Follow a wooded path to a secluded mid-century modern cottage constructed of stone and wood reclaimed wood from a historic St Joe's rollercoaster. Retro pink ceramic tiles line an open-plan main floor surrounded by sliding doors. You will be surrounded by the great outdoors while sitting cozy inside by our electric fireplace. Located about 10 minutes south of downtown St. Joe, our Idyllic A-frame is a perfect location for the escape to SW Michigan that you've been dreaming about.
Built out of wood from the historic Silver Beach roller coaster, the Willow House is a living piece of St. Joseph history. Located about 10 minutes south of downtown St. Joe, our little spot is a perfect location for all that SW Michigan has to offer.
Centrally located in Stevensville, the house is only about a mile to the beach at Grand Mere Park. A few minutes in either direction and you'll be close to great local restaurants, Michigan craft breweries, and the countless vineyards and tasting rooms of Harbor wine country.
Once home for the day, relax by the fire pit, grill on the outdoor deck, or take in your favorite show on Netflix, Hulu, or other popular apps that are logged-in and ready for use on the Smart Roku TV. Both bedrooms have ultra-comfortable queen size beds for a great night's sleep, and the full size futon is a close runner-up! Guest access Accessing the house during any and all hours is simple thanks to our keypad entry on site. So don't sweat that late night arrival!
To get to the house, you’ll turn off of Red Arrow Hwy and head down a steep gravel road called Willow Road that takes you back into our long wooded lot.
Other things to note *AWD or 4X4 required for Winter bookings*
We recommend keeping your Prius at home if you're visiting us in the winter. The steep road down to our home can occasionally be a challenge in the snowy months, but typically an SUV can conquer it.
Please note that property is secluded but not far from a major interstate. So road noise can be heard. Most people never notice. Some love it, some don’t. There are sound machines in each bedroom just in case.
There is an open staircase with no handrails that can be very dangerous for babies/toddlers. Please keep them close if you do decide to visit.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
