Have you ever wanted a peek into a 148 yr old home? Not only can you see one, but you can stay in one of Port Huron's historic homes with original features intact. Built circa 1875, the Shingle Style Victorian, Pear Tree Manor still has original features such as 5 leaded glass windows with wavy glass, original gasolier lights converted to electric, unpainted original woodwork, majolica fireplace tile & carriage house. Come find the "secret" back staircase to what was the maid's room in the past.
We require the booking person to stay in the home for the booking days/nights as the responsible point of contact. We do not allow bookings for someone else or other people. We welcome children and because of the historical nature of the home, we ask that parents keep an eye on them while in the home and on the property.
Location, location, location! Pear Tree Manor is the perfect location for all the fun things to do in Port Huron. The house sits across the street from Pine Grove Park, 2 min. walk to the river, 5 min. walk to downtown Port Huron (1 min. drive), and 5 min. drive to Lighthouse Beach. You can see the Blue Water bridge from the second floor and see freighters heading down the river from the front porch. The riverfront walkway at the bridge is a short 2 min. drive or 17 min. walk along the river from the house. McLaren hospital is one block away.
Pear Tree Manor is in a location approximate to downtown, parks, river, and beaches. You can walk to downtown and to the water. It has onsite parking with 4 parking spots. It has a fully stocked kitchen, luxurious bedding and linens, and modern updates yet keeps the integrity of a fine historic Victorian home. Beach towels are provided for your trip to the many nearby beaches. Come sit and enjoy the cool breezes from the lake with some coffee, tea, or beer on the covered front porch. The grassy backyard has patio seating and a gas grill for your outdoor relaxation. Grab a book and relax on the front porch from the sharing library that is located in the front yard.
Do not book this home for employee housing. We are not set up for that. This is a historic home with delicate historic surfaces.
Do not book for a party. We have cameras and if you violate our guest policy, you will have to vacate immediately and will not receive a refund. If you’re interested in hosting a reception or small party on the property, please contact us directly for those details and separate pricing.
We are a no smoking, drug-free house. No smoking means cigarettes, vaping, incense and Weed. It also means no open flames (candles, etc.) inside the house, on the porches, stoops, stairs or while standing near or against the garage or house. Our only smoking area is the rear patio where our tall ashtray is on the patio table. Thank you for respecting this requirement. There are electric candles inside the house if you need ambiance.
We ask that all of our guests do not leave valuables in cars, lock the house when you leave. For emergencies, call 911.
Even though we love our furry friends, no pets are allowed on the property. There are excellent local pet boarding places in the area. Pear Tree Manor is not one of them.
Please respect closed doors and locked areas.
Please ask if you have questions. Thank you.
