A Hidden Gem
We stayed at the River House at the Morris Estate for three nights with friends. It’s an amazing place and was absolutely gorgeous. It is a hidden gem in Niles, Michigan. We had a beautiful, clean suite overlooking the river. We spent lots of time at the outside fire pit and the fireplace inside and also walked the many trails on the estate. The breakfasts were delicious and every employee we met was kind, friendly and informative. We plan to return next year!

I cannot say enough. This place was fantastic. We stayed at the red horse cabin and it was so peaceful and romantic. The innkeeper was wonderful and accommodating. The property was breathtaking and we enjoyed a snow filled walk to the pavilion and covered bridge. The endless snacks and coffee and firewood were an absolute fabulous perk, and the breakfast was so good. We can't wait to return!!

The Estate is absolutely beautiful as are the surroundings. The staff is exceptional and helpful in every way. The property is remote and due to lack of transportation options, it is imperative to rent a vehicle. Taxi and Uber service are unavailable or ridiculously overpriced.

We stayed in the Morris Suite and let me tell you this is by far one of if not the best overnight experience I've ever had. Staff was helpful but otherwise left us be. The house and room were beautiful, the bed was very comfortable, and we absolutely loved the shower and tub. They even recommended dinner options that turned out to be superb. We will definitely be returning!

Drive down a half mile driveway through the woods to reach the house. The house has many rooms set up for you to relax either alone or with others. The views overlook the river and are spectacular. Perfect place to unwind. The housekeeper was wonderfully welcoming and made us a delicious breakfast in the morning. Can't wait to go back!

Lovely Stay
Gorgeous property and home. Comfortable, very clean, and well maintained. Well groomed trails were nice to walk along the river. Our room, the Ernest suite which I believe was the smallest in the house was still extremely roomy and lavish. The breakfast looked modest but was very filling. I hate to say anything negative about our stay, it truly was a pleasurable experience, I would recommend to the estate, if your going to offer top notch accommodations, please don't be frugal with the paper toiletries. The thin scratchy toilet paper and Kleenex were disappointing. We would stay again in a heartbeat in the future.

Home Away From Home
We have a new favorite place to take our family. Their Family Suite suited us perfectly! This is that rare B&B that welcomes children (albeit just this room). The facility is just the right mix of private and quiet with an attentive and present staff. Debbie and her team rock. WiFi is a bit wonky but that might be because the estate is huge. Just a heads up. If you are thinking of a family getaway and are looking for an alternative to the typical Hiltons and Hyatts, try the Morris Estate.

The property is very secluded, next to the St. Joseph river, with nice walking trails. The entire estate is 800 acres, mostly forest with some farm land. The family that owns it is in the process of expanding the amenities, but it looks like the main, huge house will not be affected. My wife and I had the entire main floor all to ourselves for a day and a half. The renovations to this house is the best I have ever seen and I have done a lot of renovations, but not to this level. If you are looking for a quiet, calm get away next to a large slow moving river, this is the place.

Trip to Western Michigan
Stayed for four nights at the Morris Estate in the River Suite (three free through chase points and one through hotels.com). This is by far the best place I’ve ever stayed on a trip. Staff were amazing and accommodating. Breakfast was cooked perfectly every day. Room was very spacious. We will definitely be back!
