Lovely house central to everything

We spent the Columbus Day weekend here with our friends. Just a quick trip over from Chicago. The house has a small footprint and it built up, so there are a ton of stairs, but they have used every square foot efficiently. It’s centrally located to both St. Joseph and everything in Benton Harbor. We walked in to downtown St. Joseph multiple times. Day with no issue. The house was clean and communication was easy. We would definitely stay again. Only thing I would change is the second bedroom has a door that is glass-paned which is a little awkward when you have two couples staying.

Perfect vacation home

Tower House was the perfect place to stay. It had everything we needed. The house was beautiful and comfortable. We loved sitting out on the docks all the time.

Great Overall / Very minor things to fix

Stay was great overall. Great location, adorable house. Thoughtful decor, comfy beds, great views of the river and surrounding area. Close to all restaurants, beaches, etc. Coffee Canal next door was wonderful. Large easy to use garage and house has good privacy set off the main road. Things to note that are easily fixable with management: I had to reach out day 1 as there was no iron/board as advertised (we were there for a wedding weekend and needed one). They brought one a few hours later. Appreciated the prompt service. GFI outlet didn’t work in main bathroom, one nearby in bedroom worked fine, but hard to do hair without mirror. No full length mirror on top floor with bedrooms. Popped breaker in upstairs bathroom just by blow drying hair, management gave us the code promptly to unlock and reset breaker. Upstairs guest bedroom has clear glass paned pocket doors, so no real privacy for sleeping or changing. This is not shown in listing pictures so was a surprise for our friends who stayed with us. The same pocket door was installed for master bath and panes were painted. I’d definitely do the same thing or let future tenants know so they can decide if that is acceptable for “bedroom”! Decks we’re covered in cobwebs and dusty. I know it’s summer but could have sprayed off with a hose. I attempted to but there wasn’t one outside. All in all, place was cozy and fine for what we needed but these simple things could improve for next time. Thanks.

Great overall

House was adorable! Very large garage for parking multiple cars, house is separate with privacy off the main road. Super convenient to all restaurants, shops and what the town has to offer. Coffee canal next door was sooo yummy and loved the convenience. Lots of nice touches on decor. Comfy beds. There was not an iron when we arrived, as advertised. We were there for a wedding weekend and let them know. A new one was bought and brought to us within a few hours. A few things to note.. The 2nd smaller bedroom has clear glass paned pocket doors so it is not completely private for changing/sleeping. We hung a sheet over the doors creativity but would have preferred privacy. Looking back it doesn’t show this in the advertised pictures. There were spider webs all over the back decks and balconies, all 3 floors, tables, chairs, railings, lights. I know it’s summer but we would have appreciated the decks being sprayed off and larger webs taken down. The living room bathroom sink was clogged as the stopper was jammed into the hole unable to use the release pull. We fixed it ourselves (in construction) and is working fine now. GFI outlet in main bath wasn’t working but there was one close by in bedroom. We let them know. Nothing to make us not stay there again, just some small oversights we hope they can improve for the next guests:) All in all it was a wonderful stay.
