Host profile image

The Maley House is a thoughtfully curated retreat with deep roots in family and hospitality. Once my childhood home, it now welcomes guests to experience the charm of Dowagiac—a friendly small town surrounded by sparkling lakes, a picturesque downtown, and conveniently located near South Bend and Kalamazoo. Inspired by my parents’ love of hosting, I’ve created a warm, inviting space where you can relax, connect, and make memories that last long after your stay.
