Description Description
This chic, dreamy loft is perfect for those seeking vacation magic, outdoor adventure, and downtown amenities. Walk to a great beach, county park, arboretum, art museum, restaurants, boutiques, antique shops, and more! This stylish 1BR/1BA features an open living room, dining room, and kitchen, fully equipped for tasty meals. Gather at the breakfast nook for coffee, relax in comfort, watch a movie, or grill under the stars on the deck. Tons of fun to explore!

THE SPACE
Professionally designed with hand-selected furniture, artwork, and accessories, Lighthouse Lookout brings beauty and comfort to a whole new level. With plenty of inside seating and eating options – from the wraparound kitchen breakfast nook to a simple, yet elegant formal dining area to the numerous cushy and cozy couches and chairs in the living room – you’ll feel at ease whenever meal or snack time arises. The kitchen is packed with essentials, including high-end appliances, making it easy to please your taste buds.

If work or play comes to mind, we’ve got both covered. There’s a stylish mini-office desk where you can place your laptop and sit down to handle any remote work needs. As for play, you’ll have a pro-level mini-bowling alley game at the back of the living room. Do we hear 10 pins falling over at once? Strike! We should also mention the excellent flat-screen TV in the living room, waiting to show your latest favorite show or movie selection. Enjoy!

Stepping through the hand-carved Asian doors, you’ll delight in the spacious, elegant bedroom, highlighted by lovely views, great natural light, a flat-screen TV, and high-quality bedding and linens for a sound sleep and sweet dreams.

Bedroom: 1 King bed

The nicely appointed bathroom features a combo soaker tub-shower with a rain shower head and metro styling. There’s also a washer-dryer to handle all your laundry needs.

The huge deck boasts a way-cool patio set with six sleek rattan chairs, plus a top-notch gas grill for barbecuing to your heart’s content! And yes, we highly recommend sipping a glass of vino or your favorite beverage while counting stars at night. Boom.

At Lighthouse Lookout, 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. You can also check out the Silver Beach Carousel and ride one of its 50 handmade carousel figures. You’re within walking distance of other cool amenities, including a county park, St. Joseph’s Harbor, an art museum and arboretum, plenty of eateries – in fact, the loft is located above Kingfisher Restaurant – 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 brewpubs, 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.

The loft was adorable!! The furnishings were comfortable, everything we needed was there. The location is absolutely perfect walking distance to just about everything. Great coffee shops, ice cream shops, restaurants, the beach, shopping and the Saturday artisan market We had one question during our stay, and the response time was almost immediate with the information we needed.. We look forward to staying there again.

My family of 3 loved this place. Very large and luxurious. Loved having the deck with gas grill. I was concerned about the parking situation but it wasn’t an issue at all. Hope to stay here again sometime!

Great Stay
We had a wonderful stay at the Lighthouse Lookout. The location is perfect. We were able to walk to the beach and to our favorite restaurants. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. I appreciated that the apartment was well stocked with essentials, especially the ground coffee from Red Arrow Roasters.

Family friendly
Excellent location downtown St Joseph. Easy to access from State Street (one flight of stairs). Spacious unit for young toddlers to play, with safe outdoor rooftop patio. Very clean and modern. Pleasant short walk to the steps/ramp leading to the splash pad, carousel, playground and beach areas. Parking behind unit was very busy during our June visit, however, we were always able to find a close and convenient close. Highly recommend!

Love, love, love!
We absolutely loved our 3-night say here at the Lighhouse Lookout! The location was unbeatable - right in the heart of downtown, just steps from shops, restaurants, and the lake. The place itself was clean, modern, and had a unique, artsy vibe that made it stand out. It felt cozy and thoughtfully put together, with little touches that made it feel special.We especially loved spending time on the outdoor deck - perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. We brought our dog, Kaya, and she was more relaxed than we were! The space was incredibly pet-friendly and welcoming for all of us.We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting St. Joe - especially if you’re bringing your pup along!

This was a great place to stay. It was perfectly located—right in the middle of the restaurants and shops, and a short walk to the wonderful Silver Beach. The apartment was cute and comfortable for our family of four. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay here. We are locals that needed a place to stay during some home renovations. We loved the location. We considered renting a place down by the lake but we chose to be close to all the shops and restaurants and we were very pleased with that decision. The Lake/beach is an easy and pretty walk. Juniper was very accommodating with our dog. We loved the layout and space. The table top shuffle board was a fun add. We highly recommend this place.

Perfect Downtown St. Joe Spot
Communication with the property managers was superb via email and text - always a prompt, informative and polite response. The location was perfect, walkable to everything in downtown St. Joe, including the CKM, all of the shopping/eateries and Silver Beach. Very spacious and comfortable, including a large deck to enjoy anytime of day. We used it for bringing back breakfast from one of the many cafes on the block. Dog-friendly was definitely a huge plus. Parking was very easy, we used the all day lot behind the loft. Definitely a place to visit and stay again!

Exactly like pictures, perfect for my family of 4. One bedroom and pull out sofa in living room. Shuffleboard was a big hit with my kids. Great location right in middle of downtown St. Joe. We walked everywhere.

Juniper’s place was perfect for our family over the 4th of July! We come to St Joe every summer and the location was perfect for our beach getaway. Coffee shop just downstairs, restaurants all walkable and beach is just down the hill. We will definitely be returning next year and years to come! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.
