John and Jitka Nelson, Dove Nest Innkeepers, will greet you with a smile and extend a warm welcome and refreshments upon your arrival and while you tour the Inn and its grounds. The Dove Nest Bed & Breakfast Inn is unique. It is nestled in a semi-rural setting in very close proximity to 110 acres of vineyards, many apple orchards and minutes from Lake Michigan, downtown and all our area has to offer.

It has been quoted that St. Joseph is "Michigan's Most Romantic City". Cobble stones streets of downtown, quaint shops, antiques on the bluff, beautiful white sand beaches, gorgeous sun sets, a choice of restaurants and cafes makes this town a "must see". Throughout the summer season there are plenty activities to keep you entertained: Ballroom Dance Lessons on the Bluff, the Carousel and Compass Fountain is fun for all ages. Join in other festivities such as: Blossomland Parade, Art Festival, Venetian Festival, Jazz Nights. Tour the Michigan wineries (www.fruitfulvinetours.com) or come back to Dove Nest Bed & Breakfast to relax after Notre Dame Football.
