Enjoy Pool Thru Sept – Game Room Perfect for Hanging Out & Watching Football
Kick back and enjoy the ultimate game day in our spacious Game Room!** Watch every play on the 65" Smart TV with drinks from the fridge, then challenge friends to darts or ping pong. Step outside to the pool or fire up the grill for a perfect tailgate. Just minutes from wedding venues, wineries, and golf courses, 15 minutes to inland lakes, 30 minutes to Lake Michigan, and a short drive to Notre Dame—this is the ideal spot for fun, relaxation, and making memories.

About the host
Hosted by Jill Weber

The Maley House is a thoughtfully curated retreat with deep roots in family and hospitality. Once my childhood home, it now welcomes guests to experience the charm of Dowagiac—a friendly small town surrounded by sparkling lakes, a picturesque downtown, and conveniently located near South Bend and Kalamazoo. Inspired by my parents’ love of hosting, I’ve created a warm, inviting space where you can relax, connect, and make memories that last long after your stay.
