This is a wonderful place to stay. I came with my two girls to have a little getaway. It’s close to the beach and if you want to take a trip into Michigan. Our host was available for any questions and very helpful.

Great Weekend Get Away

This place was perfect for what we needed to get away for the weekend. Host was great about messaging back and provided good advice for restaurants around the area. Nice to have this place close to New Buffalo as well.

We enjoyed this house near the shores of Lake Michigan. Easy trip to the beach and the dunes in the area. Great restaurants, breweries, and things to do nearby.

Roomy

This place was perfect for the family. We rented it for a few days, every year we have a family reunion the same time. I’m hoping this place will be available next year for us.

Amazing outdoor seating!

Our stay was amazing. Whether we had a day in or day out. Coming back to this place was awesome and very relaxing. Sitting outside was also amazing. The seating around the fire pit was very nice. The lights were also very pretty. Also any questions we had were answered pretty fast! Overall an amazing stay!

Vacation

This place was close to all the things we wanted to do. It was as described. Maybe a larger trash can as we prepped/cooked some meals and had to set the bag on the floor to hold everything, but was not a deal breaker by any means. The rooms were nice as well as the living area. Would recommend.

Definitely more of a 'home' feel than our other vrbo home. Tucked away from the hustle but very accessible! Saw lots of deer arohnd our home which is nice for us city slickers. :) Great warmth and communication from the host. Loved having lots of bedding and towels for our large family!

Experience not great, but owner is honest and fair

When I got there, I ran into some very unexpected problems with the house that were unacceptable and caused me to leave early, but the owner is very fair and honest and immediately took steps to resolve the problem and refunded my stay.

cute cottage. Very workable.

This is cute casual cottage for a great family get away. The outdoor area is perfect for a family night around the fire. The back porch was darling. The location was great -- rural and wooded, yet quick to access beach, dunes and towns.

Great Outdoor Space

Great outdoor spaces to hang out: deck, gazebo, and campfire. Had a great time grilling and was just a couple blocks from Al's grocery store. Wish we could have been able to use the sauna though.
