Family hikingVacation homes & family memories are meant to be year round. 

At Lake Chapin Shores, we don't build summer homes -- we build year round lifestyle homes which, like southwest Michigan, are meant to be enjoyed all year round. So much more than an investment in real estate, a second home is a safe haven for families to come together, enjoy each other's company and conversation and create generations of lasting memories, free from the daily routine and distractions. It offers a unique opportunity for cherished moments with family and friends in a relaxed setting during all four seasons. Anyone who has grown up with access to a vacation home can relate to the benefits and indelible memories of their youth, time spent playing with family and vacation friends who became lifelong friends. Their childhood vacation home experience represents a getaway from city grit and grime and an introduction to outdoor exercise and water sports, unlimited running space and a close-up of nature's wonder. 


Boys fishing on dockFor many, it 
was their first exposure to things like fishing, exploring the woods, catching frogs, spotting deer and other wildlife, swimming in the lake, boating and water-skiing, hikes on a fall day with the trees ablaze in color, roasting marshmallows over crackling campfire, snow shoeing a local trail, landing a 20 pound salmon, biking local trails, a tractor ride at a nearby fruit orchard, a fall festival, picking apples, carving a pumpkin from a local farm, golfing, horseback riding, cross country skiing, tubing, tobogganing, sporting clays, enjoying a local fair, outdoor concerts on the beach, and climbing sky-scraping sand dunes.   

 

For all of them, the days spent away from everyday "city" life become an enlightening education about living life more fully and discovering that time with the family can be more fun than time with friends.   

 

Turn your resolution to spend more quality time with your family into reality by investing in lifelong family memories at Lake Chapin Shores

 

St. Joseph, Michigan -  One of the Best Places to Retire

 
St Joe Lighthouse

Ranks 11 of "Money Magazine's" Top 25

 

The Lake Michigan coastline has lots of appealing little towns dotting the "Riviera of the Midwest," but St. Joseph--with its vibrant year-round community, top-notch medical care and proximity to Chicago-- (and just 22 minutes from Lake Chapin Shores) stands out.

 

Its downtown features bakeries, boutiques, and other local businesses in historic buildings along the bluff overlooking the lake. Visitors traveling along the coast just outside town and you can climb giant sand dunes, visit an old lighthouse, and sample locally grown Cabernets, Pinots, and Merlots.

 

Better yet, Michigan doesn't levy state income tax on distributions from qualified employer and individual retirement plans.
