I highly recommend the Chestnut House. This B&B is welcoming, cozy and well-kept and it's in a great location. Our room (Elizabeth's Garden) was perfect! The room was comfortable, elegant and romantic. The owners were friendly and helpful, and the food was amazing! I didn't even need to eat lunch. We will definitely be back to visit St. Joseph and...

We stayed here for a night for our 1st anniversary and it was wonderful and romantic. We stayed in the Coastal Room which was very comfortable and had an amazing clawfoot bathtub! It is within easy walking distance to downtown St. Joe, the beach, and several restaurants . Breakfast on the porch in the morning was delicious as well. Overall... More

The B&B is located on a busy hwy, but there is sidewalks. It is also located across the street from Lk Michigan with houses and trees in the way, so there is very little lake view. That was a disappointment for us. Three of the rooms are on the second floor and the stairs are fairly steep. On the more... More

Chestnut House is a wonderful bed and breakfast that defines attention to detail. The breakfasts were beyond delicious -- think quiche and egg strata will loads of fresh veggies and cheese, blueberry/banana pancakes with Michigan maple syrup, artistically served on beautiful china (which changed each day) in a charming, peaceful setting. The owner was nice enough to cater to "dietary... More

Stayed at chestnut house for our 5 year wedding anniversary. It was perfect. The breakfasts were amazing, and the owners gracious. The room was very nice, private, and the bathroom was state of the art. Perfect location. Able to walk to the downtown area, nice outlook areas. The pool was a perfect refresher to a hot summer day!

My wife and I visited St. Joseph the first week of May for a friend's wedding. The Chestnut House exceeded all of our normal requirements for a good place to stay: very clean, fair price, great location, and aesthetic character. We loved our stay at this bed and breakfast, however, not because of these requirements, but rather because of Bob... More

I will start off by saying the rooms are very nice here that is why I gave it an average rating. First off it is next to a cemetary which I did not like. If I would have know that I probably would not have stayed here. Also it is far from everything. The nearest beach is at least a... More

I travel to St. Joeseph regularly for work and Bob at the Chestnut House has made being away from home as enjoyable as possible. We discovered the Chestnut House about 2+ months ago and have been staying there every week we're in town. The rooms are fabulous, the breakfast is great, and Bob always welcomes us with open arms and... More
