Stone's Throw Cottage

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

Come and relax at Stone's Throw Cottage, right in downtown New Buffalo! This cozy three-bedroom ranch house sleeps six and is perfect for spending some downtime with the family. The cottage is located on the lakeside of the US-12 Highway in a quiet neighborhood near Whittaker. One fun feature of the home is that the location is only a short walk from the Amtrak stop in New Buffalo, so it's perfect for a no-car vacation if you want to get away from city life. Inside, you'll find a well-equipped eat-in kitchen, a family room, a living area, and a beautiful three-season sitting room overlooking the backyard, perfect for an evening of family time.

The family room futon is not suitable for adults but is perfect for the youngster of the family. Complimentary high-speed WiFi is provided and we suggest you bring your Firestick, Roku, or Apple TV for hours of entertainment. You'll also have access to a digital antenna that gets many channels.

Kick back on the porch, grill on the gas barbecue, or enjoy a peaceful time around the firepit - there's plenty of room in the spacious backyard for the great spring, summer, and fall evenings!

WHAT’S NEARBY
The New Buffalo Public Beach is within walking distance, less than a mile from the house, and you can walk to the marina for many shops and places to dine or enjoy coffee. Bicycle, kayak, surfboard, and sailboard rentals are nearby for outdoor activity, and there are lots of trails and parks to explore. If you've got a shopping itch to scratch, the Michigan City outlet malls are close by in Michigan City. This is a perfect location to relax and enjoy it all!

Great house, great location.
Family members from 3 different states met up in New Buffalo and we had a great time. We parked the cars and walked everywhere. The house was clean and comfortable, would definitely stay there again.

Fun Time at Stone’s Throw Cottage!
My family and I found this cottage to be very clean with lots of amenities. Great kitchen, several options for living spaces, and ample bedroom space. The local Vacasa host was very helpful! I would highly recommend this cottage!

Cute & Cozy
This house was great for our family of 5 with young kids. Close enough to the beach that we could walk if we wanted to, and it was easy to get to lots of shops and restaurants. The house was cute and comfortable. Lots of cozy pillows and blankets. The kids enjoyed the games and puzzle. Mom and Dad enjoyed relaxing on the sun porch. Excellent place!

Good, but disappointed that I found out no pets were allowed.
The overall stay at the home was nice. It was clean, and in a good location. There is still a good 10minute walk to the the shoreline. I initially booked this house because it was pet friendly, but the email I received to get additional information for check stated no pets. So I had to find last minute accommodations for my dog. I emailed the property management and they said unfortunately there is a possibility that the owner can change it. At the home there was a book for guests to write a blurb about their stay, and the guests that stayed on the weekend of 7/4/22 brought their dog. So somewhat disappointed about that. Overall stay was nice.
