Luxury Estate with 3 Homes, Pool, Hot Tubs, Basketball/Tennis Court near Lake

Apple Blossom Resort is a one-of-a-kind luxury rental property featuring three homes and extensive outdoor space on a private 18-acre estate in SW Michigan’s Harbor Country, just 70 miles from Chicago.

** Ask us about promotional pricing for off-season stays longer than 2 nights from November through April (holidays excluded).**

Comprising three homes, the sprawling 8,000 square foot estate was specifically designed to accommodate large groups, offering both multiple spaces large enough for your whole crew and numerous smaller areas for when you need a little personal space.

The custom-built Main House features 7 spacious bedrooms, 7 full & 2 half bathrooms, a sleek open-concept chef’s kitchen & great room, a large dining space, and two wood-burning fireplaces. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and many are accompanied by a private outdoor patio.

The Guest House provides an additional 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms that are ideal for guests who benefit from additional privacy. A wood-burning fireplace and outdoor deck with hot tub, gas grill, and fire pit complement the generously-sized open-concept kitchen & living room.

Combining rustic charm and contemporary design, the Cabin is a tucked-away sanctuary. Wooden trusses, a large stone hearth, and a cozy outdoor space provide tons of character to this space, while the recently updated kitchen and bathroom ensure maximum comfort.

Apple Blossom Resort’s extensive outdoor space includes a large heated pool with safety cover, two hot tubs, pergola lounge, outdoor dining areas with gas grills, and two fire pits. The property’s basketball/tennis court is perfectly-suited for a little friendly competition while the adjacent 6,000 square foot astroturf area creates a pristine canvas for outdoor activities of all kinds. (It also transforms into an outdoor event space for weddings & other special celebrations for up to 150 people!)

Apple Blossom Resort’s unique location lends a secluded vibe while being moments away from all that this special region has to offer. The estate is located moments away from Lake Michigan’s pristine beaches and the region’s beach communities along Red Arrow Highway. Union Pier is moments away and it is a short drive to family-friendly New Buffalo.

Great Place For Family Vacations
Everything was amazing during our stay at this property. The amenities were great… house was clean and there were so many things to do around the house with the adults and the kids. We will definitely be coming back in the future. Thanks Jorge for all your help!

This property was so perfect for my family. Everyone was comfortable and not crowded. Plenty to do outside with the kids. Unfortunately the pool was unavailable for our stay because the weather was all over the place but the hot tubs worked out great.

Fantastic week!
Apple Blossom was perfect for our family reunion / 50th anniversary celebrations. The rooms lay-out was conducive to easy, multiple gatherings; the pool design was so family friendly and perfect temperature, with cover easily handled; the bedrooms were great, with room enough for pack’n plays, and stuff; kitchen was well-equipped, two refrigerators were appreciated; turf fields, tennis/basketball courts were super. Everyone was impressed and appreciated the thoughtful planning that was put into the whole design.

AMAZING large family gathering space for a long weekend.
Apple Blossom was above and beyond any vrbo/bnb property I've ever stayed. It had enough rooms (and then some) for our very large family. It had all the kitchen essentials. The sports activities were a hit, hot tubs...yes plural.... being the mvps of the weekend. Camp fires everyday all day. We had some amazing Chicago restaurants feed us dinners (just 1.5 hours away), Lula Cafe who cooked in the kitchen and Big Star Taco Truck who pulled right up to the front door. Penny, our host, was responsive and very helpful with any and all questions we had. And the aesthetic of the place was both beautiful and modern but also cozy and homey with the fire places and yummy warm window light. We would love to reserve this space annually, especially in the summer when we could take advantage of the pool. Hopefully we can make that dream a reality, and be back soon. If you're on the fence, just do it, rent this space, it was really incredible.

This house was perfect for our large family. There was plenty to do and a ton of space - indoors and outside - for us to spread out or congregate. Great communication from the host as well. I highly recommend this property.

Annual Family Vacation
We are a family of 14 adults and 23 grandkids. This is our third year at Apple Blossom and there's is just nothing like it for a large group. We've vacationed for years at Hilton Head SC. but Apple Blossom offers far more than anything we've found on that island. The facility is wonderful, open, enchanting (up a long lane) and well done. The pool is family perfect. There's something like 7 acres for kids to run and the basketball/tennis court is a great add. It's a very special place.

The perfect place for large family vacations
This place is remarkable in it's vibe, location, recreational opportunities one site, pool, hot tubs, kitchen, alcoves, etc. I've been all over the country and have found nothing that compare. It's simply wonderful. Other than the main kitchen/Dining/Gathering area needing serious acoustical treatment to manage the noise from 30-50 people it's great. Fix this serious problem and there's not a weak spot.

Apple Blossom is a great property. This was our second straight year spending a week in July with 10 adults and 10 grandkids ages 16 to ten months. There’s an abundance of activities both on property and close by. As a side bar, the owners are terrific to deal with. We hope to be back.

Memorial Day Weekend Compound
Amazing property, houses, pool, tennis court, expansive lawns, firepits, hot tubs, gourmet kitchens, etc. We had 8 families all with small children and this felt like our own high end resort. No details left out by Meg and Jorge who were awesome hosts. The 3 house were all well equipped, very well designed and plenty of ensuite bathrooms. The property is also very close to everything in New Buffalo yet very private. Can't say enough and can't wait to book it again.

A tremendous and superlative property! Our guests/family staying on the premises felt like royalty!
This was, above and beyond, the most spectacular and memorable weekend my family has ever experienced. The Apple Blossom has it all..and then some! We rented the property for a 3-day family reunion/wedding celebration. All 30-35 houseguests staying on the property for the weekend were ‘over the moon’ with the immaculate facilities, not to mention the impeccable service-level from the property owners, Meg & Jorge. We couldn’t have dreamed of a more ideal setting to gather our friends and loved ones to celebrate this joyous occasion! I would recommend and strongly endorse this rental property for anyone who wishes to: 1. Host a memorable event that your guests will be talking about for years 2. Coordinate with property owners who are responsive, attentive, kind, helpful and genuinely delightful people 3. Look back at your decision to host at The Apple Blossom full of pride and sheer gratitude, as this will be the best decision you’ve made in years! Well done, Meg and Jorge!
