About this property

Quiet Summer Retreat Lake Michigan Private Beach - June dates still available!

This well appointed single story home is a 10 minute walk to a private Beach on Lake Michigan. It sits on a beautiful secluded lot with lots of mature trees. There are patios in the front and back yard with a rock Fire Pit out back. It's a great place to lay back in the Hammock and relax the day away.

When you walk in the front door the Vaulted Ceiling makes it feel very big and open. There are two large sliding glass doors that span the living room and dining room and bring the back yard into the house. A wood burning fireplace, a flat screen TV and wireless internet access will give you all of the comforts of home. The kitchen includes an eat-in banquette, honed granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.

To the left of the entrance are three bedrooms and two baths. The first room has a queen sized bed and a unique closet made from an old barn door. The next room has two XL twin beds and a large closet. There is a common bathroom with a tub. The Master follows and is a large room with a king bed, lots of closet space and an attached master bath featuring pebble floors and a glass shower.

It's a great place to relax.

We are a registered vacation rental in New Buffalo Township.

Labor Day weekend wedding getaway

Super comfortable and spacious home for a Labor Day weekend getaway. The neighborhood was quiet and felt like a relaxing area. We didn’t explore much given the packed wedding weekend agenda, but everything was a quick drive. Will need to come back to check out the beach!! Beds were comfortable, and it was great to have extra space - 3 women getting ready for a wedding need to be able to spread out!! Check in and check out instructions were super clear, and hosts were friendly and proactive with their communication. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful property, and close to the lake.

We really enjoyed staying here. Location was perfect! The neighborhood is quiet and the walk to the lake is very easy. Beach chairs and floaters are available. We really enjoyed using the bikes to ride around. I definitely recommend for families or couples. An amazing relaxing experience and a nice break from our city life.

Great Stay

This is our third time renting this property and we seem to have more fun every year. It is exactly as advertised and the owners are always quick to respond to any questions. We hope to be back for more Lake Michigan beach time in 2024!

Great place for families

We really enjoyed our second stay at this property. The house was very clean upon arrival. It also has a variety of beach items available such as chairs, a wagon, beach toys, floats, etc., which we appreciated. The location is great, just a short drive or bike ride to New Buffalo and the small downtown of Union Pier. Our host was very kind and communicative. Check out procedures were reasonable.

Great family vacation

We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the home and the bikes and the access to the private beach. The choice of restaurants was good. Seeing deer in the yard was refreshing.

We were married at the Journeyman in Three Oaks in 2019. Steve just wrote his first book, Nocturnal Admissions, a memoir of funny stories from a 30 year career running legendary nightclubs in the US.

Why they chose this property

We love the small town feel of Harbor Country and the great options for dining, breweries, hikes, Lake Michigan and close proximity to Chicago.

What makes this property unique

There's nothing better than bringing a bottle of wine down to the beach to watch the sunset (perk of a private beach). It is considered one of the nicest beaches in the area.
