“In Saint Joseph, this property strikes me as a place prioritizing views and access; the location on Lake Michigan, near both the water and the town, seems central to its appeal. I noted the amenities, from the spa to the dining, clearly aim for a resort atmosphere. Its condominium residences, however, suggest a longer-term vision beyond just transient stays.”
