Ferris' Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Full of ease, light, and mid-century style, this home in New Buffalo offers its very own heated swimming pool and a wonderful location four blocks from the beach. This stylish space features an open main-level living area with hardwood floors, a stone fireplace, and a thoughtfully updated kitchen. Step outside to take a dip in the sparkling pool, relax in the private backyard with an expansive patio overlooking a wooded ravine, or light the grill on the large deck to barbecue while keeping one eye on the pool. Guests can enjoy automatic heat up to 84 degrees - additional heating can be purchased before your stay.

When you're not enjoying the great outdoors, you can play Ping-Pong and darts in the garage, or take the provided golf cart for a spin around the neighborhood. After a night spent soaking in the hot tub cozied up around the outdoor firepit or watching movies on one of the two cable-equipped TVs, you'll have your choice of five bedrooms. On the main floor are one king bedroom with an en suite bathroom, one queen bedroom, a third bedroom with a pair of twin beds, and another full bathroom. Downstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms - one with a queen bed, one with two twin bunk beds - and one more full bathroom. All three bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated.

Woodlands Course At Whittaker is two-and-a-half miles away and Galien River County Park is six miles away. Visit Hesston Steam Museum, St. Julian Winery & Distillery Tasting Room, and Sandy Acres Clydesdales, all less than 10 miles from the property. Chikaming Township Park & Preserve and The Acorn both offer family-friendly fun and are less than 12 miles away.

Hopefully the pool is ready for your trip
Unfortunately, we did not have the best stay at this house. The golf cart didn't work and the main reason we booked this place was the pool and it was extremely dirty and cold. I even called Vacasa twice the night before arrival to ensure that the pool was open and heated to the advertised 80 degrees, which I was assured it was. We stayed over Memorial Day weekend and I know opening of pools typically occurs around this time, so I just wanted to be confident that the pool was up to the listing description's standards. When we arrived to the dirty and freezing pool, I notified Vacasa immediately and they tried their best to get everything fixed, but it seemed like communication was difficult between Vacasa, the owners of this property, and the third party pool vendor. Nothing ever got fixed for us. I would have only given this place 2 stars, but Jon from Vacasa went above and beyond to try and get everything resolved, which I appreciated - especially over a holiday weekend. I feel like the owners of this property were the ones who dropped the ball and I wouldn't stay here again just because I wouldn't want to give the property owners any of my money after this bad experience.

Great summer house
We had a fun, weeklong stay at Ferris’ Retreat. The pool and hot tub are great and there are plenty of pool toys and games provided by the hosts. There location is great too. You’re about a ten minute walk or a couple minute golf cart ride to a beautiful beach that we spent hours at over our stay. The area provides everything you need for a relaxing getaway - breweries, wineries, restaurants, ice cream shops, shopping, golf courses and a whole lot more.
