About this property

The Shire - "There's some good in the world." Winery/Brewery tours available

Nestled on five secluded, tree-lined acres, with a pond, waterfall, fire pit, tree swing, basketball court and walking trails, The Shire feels a million miles away from it all - but isn't! We are only minutes away from wineries, breweries, amazing beaches, restaurants and shopping. (Notre Dame is an easy 30 minute drive).

Southwest Michigan is a beautiful place to live!

We'd LOVE to share it with you.

This is a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom 1,100 apartment located on the backside of the outbuilding on our property - completely out of the sight lines to our home which is about 50 yards away.

We have a pond with a waterfall and a deck to enjoy both. Enjoy the fire pit and tree swing, walking trails and 2 acre open field. There is a 1/2 court basketball, beach supplies in the front closet.

Mike and Lisa's property was so lovely. An absolutely perfect place for a getaway if you're looking for a peaceful and quiet spot. My husband and I and our friends were pleased and very much enjoyed our stay here. Our only regret was not getting to meet Mike and Lisa personally. Highly recommend the Shire.

Michael and Lisa have created an incredible, cozy guesthouse tucked away in the beautiful Baroda/Stevensville area of Michigan. We spent an amazing sisters-and-mom weekend at The Shire, and it was everything we could have hoped for!Our hosts were so friendly, kind, and welcoming. Lisa greeted us when we arrived and walked the property with us while we shared stories and got acquainted. They truly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for a perfect weekend getaway.The grounds are absolutely beautiful and surrounded by nature. We loved exploring the pond, waterfall, firepit, and hiking trails. Sitting by the waterfall and feeding the fish quickly became some of our favorite moments. When the rain came, we had just as much fun indoors playing ping pong and bags in the game room.The accommodations were wonderful, too. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the bedrooms and bathrooms had so many thoughtful amenities and touches. It really felt like a home away from home.The nearby towns are just a short drive away, and even the drives themselves were beautiful as we traveled along the local roads.We enjoyed our stay so much that we plan to make The Shire our annual retreat! Thank you, Michael and Lisa, for your wonderful hospitality and for sharing this special place with us. We’re already looking forward to seeing you next year!
