Goodwin Glow - Walk to Lake Michigan & Pool

Summary:

Discover your perfect Lake Michigan escape at Goodwin Glow, a modern coastal retreat tucked into the heart of Union Pier, just steps from McKinley Public Beach and moments from downtown. This luxurious pet-friendly 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath getaway blends warm contemporary design with relaxed Harbor Country living, featuring bright gathering spaces, designer interiors, and inviting outdoor lounges with exclusive access to the Community Pool. Spend your days at nearby beaches, wineries, and cafés, then return home to unwind with family, friends, and even your pup.



The Space:

Goodwin Glow features thoughtfully designed interior gathering spaces that bring everyone together. The bright open-concept main living room offers oversized sectional seating, cozy accent chairs, expansive windows, and soft layered textures that create a welcoming place to relax after long beach days. The adjoining dining area provides an elegant setting for shared meals beneath exposed wood beams and designer lighting, while the chef's kitchen serves as the heart of the home with an oversized island, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances. A separate lounge on the lower level adds even more space to spread out, offering an additional comfortable retreat perfect for movie nights or unwinding after a day exploring Union Pier and Harbor Country.



Each bedroom was thoughtfully designed to feel bright, peaceful, and relaxing, with soft coastal tones, warm natural light, and clean modern finishes throughout. From the spacious vaulted primary suite to the charming custom bunk room, every space offers a restful retreat worthy of a great night's sleep.

The home offers beautifully finished bathrooms with bright coastal-inspired details and modern fixtures throughout. The spacious primary ensuite features double vanities and a large walk-in glass shower, creating a private spa-like retreat, while the shared bathroom includes a double vanity and tub/shower combination that comfortably accommodates families and groups. An additional half bathroom on the main level adds extra convenience for gathering spaces and entertaining. A dedicated laundry area with washer and dryer makes extended stays, beach days, and family vacations feel effortless.



Head outside to enjoy 2 distinct outdoor spaces designed for making the most of Michigan's best seasons. The covered main level balcony offers a peaceful perch to relax and take in the fresh Harbor Country air, while the expansive upper deck features a full outdoor dining table beneath a pergola and open sky. Whether you're hosting an al fresco dinner, watching the sun dip behind the treed, or simply unwinding after a long beach day, Goodwin Glow's outdoor spaces give you every reason to linger a little longer.

Golf courses, yoga studios, live music venues, and world-class spa experiences round out a region built for those who want both adventure and relaxation. Whether you're planning a packed itinerary or a slow, unhurried escape, Union Pier and the surrounding Harbor Country region offer the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable Lake Michigan getaway.
