Benton Harbor
1 Bedroom, 1 bath, 600sf., located on the second floor above the Houndstooth Restaurant. Muffled sounds of music and activity from the restaurant below are often present in the loft during evening hours. While rare, some guests may find this objectionable.

A walk-out balcony overlooks the parking lot below with the western city skyline in the distance. Classic loft finishes – hardwood floors, exposed brick and ductwork, high ceilings. Full laundry is shared with an adjacent loft. Located on the 2nd floor, the loft makes a great place from which to explore surrounding destinations. Lake Michigan is a short drive, downtown St. Joseph is a 5-minute drive across the St. Joe River, and the Golf Club at Harbor Shores is just around the corner.

Guests may park in the public parking lot to the rear of the building. In the event that the lot is full, guests may park on the street”

The 600sf loft features an open kitchen/living room, bathroom, and bedroom. Fully furnished with everything you need to enjoy Southwest Michigan!

“Positive: Atmosphere! Loved the art, brick wall, furniture- felt like I was somewhere in Europe”

“We absolutely loved staying here! Perfect location. Great guest experience. We will visit again.”

“Great property with close proximity to beaches and shops. Easy, free parking in the back of building and although the area surrounding the loft is a little run down it was a safe location. The space was clean and updated and had everything we needed (and more) for a relaxing weekend away. We would definitely stay here again.”

“Very pristine and clean and extremely safe. One of the best Airbnb's I've stayed in. And I'm very picky, so I'm told. 5 stars for sure! Great job Kenneth!”

“Can't beat the location. Right above the excellent Houndstooth Restaurant and close walk to Livery Brewery and other restaurants. Straight shot to St. Joseph. Close to expressway in other direction. Harbor Shores Golf course and other less challenging ( More fun- for me anyway) public course and wineries. Loved our little balcony.”

“We had a good time. The apartment was clean and as described.”

“Awesome little spot tucked away. Will be coming back so please stay away!! lol”

“Clean and well-furnished space. Close to several coffee shops, bars, and restaurants. We tried Livery and the Brick House and enjoyed both. Would come back.”

“Kenneth’s place is perfect—spacious, comfortable, and cool, just as pictured and described! What’s more, Kenneth and his team are great hosts. They are proactive and quick to respond. I would definitely stay here again!”

“My husband and I spent 4 night at Kenneth's place. It was absolutely perfect! The place was so clean and beautiful (art & stylish furniture). I would rank it in the top %'s of places that we have ever stayed. We loved the short drive (5 min.) over to St. Joseph and the beach (of course), the Art Museum, and the Box Museum (artists in resident). The best restaurant in the entire area was Houndstooth which was in the same building as the Airbnb. Perfect stay made even better by the great communications with Kenneth!”

“Great stay!”

“An incredible find right by the beach!!”

“Fantastic place to stay in the st Joe's area within minutes to the beach and downtown a nice quiet place to stay”

“This is my second time to stay here and i absolutely love the time spent here. The little walk out deck was a plus for a peaceful morning coffee. The kitchen is beautiful and I always love a gas stove. We were able to visit Clifford’s cafe and loved it! Driving five minutes to St Joseph for shopping and sunsets was such a beautiful memory ! Definitely will return next summer. :)”

“This cozy loft was perfect. It was exactly as described. Immaculately cleaned. They even provided all the little things you may need. This was our first time in the area and would absolutely stay here again! The location was very good as well. Very close to St. Joseph and several nice beaches! The host very very tentative and checked in appropriately.”

“Always a wonderful stay at Kenneth’s properties. Feels right at home.”

“Beautiful place to stay, exceeded expectations!”

“The Airbnb was amazing! It was well stocked with all we needed, super clean and the decor was spot on. Kenneth was a great communicator!”

“Totally enjoyed our stay! Beautifully decorated loft apartment with everything we needed. Enjoyed the balcony every morning. We didn’t explore the neighborhood much only because we had other destinations planned.”

“The listing was perfect. For the price it was extremely affordable and many points of interest near by. Wonderful restaurant right below. The only thing to note, and we understand there not actually anything might be able to fix it, but it sounded like an AC compressor or pipes would get VERY loud at times, especially when you stood in front of the sink. However, if you had music or tv on, it was easy to ignore.”

“The space was nice and as pictured. Instructions were easy and straight to the point. Bed was comfy and has what you need for a short stay. The only complaint we had was the neighboring Airbnb were up later than us and were out in the shared laundry space. The window above the door to shared space is glass and they had the light on and off, it’s SO bright which faces the bedroom. You could hear them messing with the door lock/code entry on our door seeing if their code would work for ours. Walls are thin also. Undecided if we would stay again”

“Cool loft! Lots of food to walk to in daytime!”

“We loved the loft! Beautiful place to stay when briefly visiting town. Very nice location. Parking was super easy and free. Getting in was easy. The esthetic of the place is stunning! You can tell a lot of hard work and time went into planning the loft! Quiet neighborhood and we really enjoyed Silver Beach pizza which was recommendation of the hosts!”

“This was a great place to stay! 5 minutes from St Joe. Lots of places to walk to locally as well. The place was super clean and neat.”

“Had a great stay here, would recommend to others staying in the area!”

“Perfect location above the best restaurant in Michigan.”

“Beautiful property. Close to everything we were there for. Very helpful when we had problems opening lockbox & answered my call at 1am. Would highly recommend!”

“Really cool spot, great for a romantic weekend”

“Great stay. Clean with beautiful interiors. Great location. Will go back.”

“I have stayed at the lift several times now, the loft and Kenneth have been equally great each time.”

“Beautiful apartment!!! So many great decorating details, spotless, and such a cool historic building!!! Don’t let the neighborhood stop you. It is up and coming as they say. Very close to St. Joseph for all that is available there. Great places within walking distance. Would definitely stay again!!!”

“Great place to stay. Exactly as it looks and described. Great restaurants close by. Location is as described. You need to be careful at night but we had no issues. Houndstooth, the restaurant below the apartment is also terrific. ”

“The Airbnb was exactly as described — clean, comfortable, and true to the listing photos. The neighborhood feels like it’s in an up-and-coming phase, but we still felt safe and secure in the loft. It’s also conveniently located just a short drive from the lakefront and main attractions.”
