About this property

Quiet neighborhood - Lake Michigan Private Beach

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 quiet retreat and a great place to relax.

We are a registered vacation rental in New Buffalo Township.

Michele and Steve’s place is a gem! It has everything (and more!) stocked for a great beach vacation, the location is wonderful, and Michele is so helpful. It’s a very short drive (2 minutes or so) to the beach, which we did most days, as the amount of stuff we wanted to bring made walking a little too cumbersome. But when we could, the walk was about 10 minutes and very nice. Also, we were close enough to both New Buffalo and “downtown” Union Pier to have dinner, get ice cream, etc., but then could retreat back to the peace and quiet. Oh, and having a private beach was amazing. It was the perfect retreat for us and our 2 kids, and we hope to be back next year!

Great property, great hosts, and easy check in. The beach is a few blocks away and limited to local houses with a flag (so nice) and it's a lovely walk. I hope to go back!

The home was lovely and just as described. We took our young adult daughters, their boyfriends, and two small, non-shedding dogs with us. There was ample room for everyone. It had all the little amenities we needed and/or wanted. Everything was easy to find and instructions for getting to the beach were easy to follow. We all truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home.

Sweet House

We really enjoyed the house. It could comfortably sleep six people, and the owners offered some additional amenities in the house for the beach. We appreciated that. Location relative to the beach is pretty good. Short walk, or short drive and ample parking. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time. Steve and Michelle are so kind and have such a nice place. The 4 of us all adults in our family have enjoyed their place these last few years. The beach is so beautiful and we got to see the strawberry moon in the clear Michigan sky and the stars!! We are thankful for the time there

About the host

Hosted by Michele & Steve Adelman

Host profile image
Steve grew up in Essexville, MI and Michele is from Minnesota, but spent over 15 years in Chicago working for Kraft Foods. We met in Memphis, TN our primary residence in addition to Union Pier. 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. This picture is from the book signing at the New Buffalo Library in JULY, 2022.

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.
