We love the Beachwalk resort and have been coming to Beachwalk for years. This was our first time at The BeachNest house…it was beautiful! This is a perfect house for a large group! Many extras made it so enjoyable…the supplies in garage- coolers, wagons, chairs, pool toys, extra fridge, golf cart - all made the week so much easier! We had a wonderful week and will be back!

Fourth time at Beachwalk

This was the fourth house we rented in Beach Walk and pretty much tied with our top two! Great location, plenty of room for 11 people, very well stocked kitchen, water toys, golf cart etc. Lovely home, hope we left it in as good condition as we found it!

Great for families with small children

Nice place and great location. Only complaint is the pool is way too small. Was packed each day with families with small children (we didn't have any small children in our group) and we didn't attempt to use.

Couldn’t be happier

Rented this beautiful home for a girls getaway this past weekend I couldn’t have been more pleased!!! The home was better than I even expected it to be From being clean from top to bottom and even smelling like it was brand new to being stocked with everything you could possibly need from bikes,coolers,beach toys, to anything you could need in the kitchen to makeup remover wipes in every bathroom!!! The girls and I had a amazing time and definitely would or will be doing this again soon!!! I highly recommend this beautiful home for a nice getaway for friends or families!!! Love love loved it!!

Perfect 40th with Friends

Property was incredible, house was immaculate, incredibly clean and brand new. Was good for a large group of adult friends who came from out of town to celebrate in New Buffalo and needed to stay the night. The property is more fitted for several large families with lots of kids. We did not utilize the two rooms loaded with bunkbeds. Would definitely come back with our three kids, my brothers family/kids and my sister and her kids. Drawback is that even though it is close to Lake Michigan, it is not walking distance from the beach, there is a little pier that you can fish from, although we did not. Very close to New Buffalo, which is what we were looking for. A 10 minute car ride get you downtown Buffalo or downtown Michigan city. Found out that we could’ve saved hundreds of dollars by going to beachwalkvacationrentals.com instead of VRBO.

Thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed your stay. We do provide a golf cart which will get you to the beach in about 5 minutes. There is golf cart parking available at the board walk to the beach. There is a free golf cart shuttle you can call as well. Also, at out location is the entrance of dune and wooded walking trails. It tends to be quieter as well. The casino and downtown Michigan City are closer too. We will not be available through beachwalkvactions as of January 1, 2020. We do offer steeper discounts though. Reach us by calling or texting 219-299-5648 or search BeachNestatbeachwalk on social media and maps. We look forward to serving you and your family again at Beach Nest at Beachwalk.
