This luxury lakefront property is very welcoming to groups, however, guests are expected to be mindful of neighbors, and adhere to noise ordinances. While total occupancy is 12, a maximum of 8 adults are allowed. Adults are not permitted to sleep on the top bunk or trundle beds in the bunk room.
Please note, there are 159 stairs down to the private beach. There are three separate landing areas available to stop and rest, which makes each run of stairs approximately 40 steps. The stairs were newly installed in August 2022. Lake conditions are unpredictable, and at any time bluff conditions may be altered, impacting the condition/availability of the stairs. The stairs are frequently checked, and maintained to the greatest extent possible. We expect they will be available for guest use, but cannot 100% guarantee this to be the case due to the unpredictability of mother nature.
A personal guest contact will be available by phone/text throughout your stay. Additionally, we will offer in-person support/maintenance when needed.

We spent 3 full days at this property and enjoyed every minute of it. Of course perfect weather helped. The house was beautiful and well provisioned, and of course the location was spectacular. Communications with the owner and property manager were almost instantaneous. My only suggestions for improvement would be to have some type of signage to distinguish the house as it was difficult to locate, especially at night. The private beach was wonderful, and we really enjoyed the hot tub as well. Everything was organized and well documented. All in all we were thrilled to find this place just a short 2 hours from home.
This house and property are beautiful! The house was full of retro character mixed with contemporary, modern conveniences. SS offers the most beautiful backyard and sunset views which made for a fantastic, comfortable and fun week!
Our family enjoyed this beautifully decorated and fully furnished home on Lake Michigan. The town of St Joseph is a short drive down the street with several unique boutiques to explore when not relaxing by the water. We would love to visit again!
We had a fabulous stay at Siavon Sanctuary. The house, yard, deck and beach were incredible. Everything was immaculate and the home was very well appointed. The views from both inside and outside were lovely and the sunsets spectacular! A great week for the family!
The home itself (inviting, clean, spacious and fully stocked), the breathtaking views of Lake Michigan, the hot tub, private beach, etc. was all as described, and more. We look forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the private beach to its fullest and tour the neighboring golf courses and wineries.
This was a great place for us to stay for our family. The home is spacious, very clean and well-appointed - really could not think of anything more that they could have provided. The house being right on Lake Michigan with a private beach was so wonderful … views were amazing. The owners provided great communication. We will be back!
This house is just what the doctor ordered for our busy family of 5. It's a close drive from Chicago, but gives you a place to completely unplug. Unreal views of the Lake Michigan sunset from every nook. Wide open floor plan. Beautiful backyard that's big enough for family wiffleball game. Hot tub. Fire pit for smores. And access to your own beach. Close to St. Joes & Benton Harbor - both with great restaurants, public beaches, & shops. It's 5 stars.
Others have said but the photos truly do not do the place justice. The views are incredible, as is the landscaping and thoughtful design of the house. The decor is impeccable and it’s worth it for the hot tub and secluded beach alone. There was truly no one else around us and it was so serene on the beach. If you love to cook, you’ll love this place. Plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors for a proper dinner. The sunsets were spectacular. Can’t wait to come back again.
We had such a wonderful Easter weekend with our kids and grandchildren! The house was perfect, and accommodated all of us so well. The views of the lake are stunning and the large backyard was such an unexpected bonus - the kids enjoyed family soccer and football games! Inside and out this property is just beautiful. We had a special weekend and will definitely be back to Siavon Sanctuary!
The pictures don't do this home justice. The views are spectacular, and the space was perfect for our 3 families with 6 young kids. We will definitely be back.
The home is beautiful inside and out, and the huge dining table is awesome! We will be back to enjoy the house and beach this summer!
The home is more beautiful and expansive than the pictures show! Views are breathtaking, even in the winter. We can't wait to come back when the weather is nice to enjoy the big backyard and private beach!
