Description Description
Surf Loft in St. Joseph, MI offers the best vacation experience! Enjoy a gorgeous living space with a fireplace, flat-screen TVs, and a professional Foosball table. Relax on a huge deck with a gas grill. Walk to the beach, park, harbor, arboretum, or explore downtown's boutiques, shops, eateries, and art museum. Featuring a spacious open design LR-DR-Kitchen, natural light, elegant bedrooms, and deluxe bathrooms. Perfect for a restful and memorable getaway.Walking into Surf Loft, located above RAHN'S 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 you 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 vacation day planning. Want to share a meal in a more formal setting? We’ve got you 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 Primary bathroom has a walk-in tiled shower, deluxe twin-sink vanity, and high-end fixtures. The second 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 you 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 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.To ensure a safe and compliant stay, all guests are required to complete identity verification prior to check-in.

We loved the fact that we parked the car and went days without using it. You can walk to the beach, shops, restaurants, etc. The loft had plenty of room for everyone. Lots of newer appliances and plenty of kitchen room. Great vacation! One important note--renters must be able to climb stairs. A narrow staircase with 18 stairs hauling up suitcases, cases of water, etc. It was great exercise but a bit daunting for anyone with mobility issues.

Nice place, good location, comfortable beds and beach towels provided! Great for our pre teens and safe area for them to do some exploring on their ownLots of stairs to get up and down so glad we left the grandparents home on this trip

We had a wonderful stay, close to the beach and cute shops of St. Joe. We would stay again. Having teenagers made the location perfect.

Amazing location
Everything was perfect. Extra towels and great open floor plan made our stay a treasure. We are looking at making it a yearly tradition

Stayed at Surf Shop for 4 day weekend getaway. The condo was well appointed and professionally maintained- had everything we needed. Location was terrific- right above commercial property in the heart of town (steps away from restaurants/shopping) and 7 min walk down to Silver Beach. Management was responsive to all questions. Will definitely stay here again for next trip to St Joe

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.

The place was very clean, well stocked, and overall very nice place to stay. Beds and bathrooms were wonderful. I would stay there again.

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!

Overall we had a great little trip. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to park and walk around town. Great location and communication with property managers.
