Sipping a glass of wine with friends or family gathered 'round a firepit. Mmmm.
Cool beans. Legendary folk singers Peter, Paul and Mary have stayed here!
Unwind in your private forest retreat—where a soak in the hot tub is just steps away from cozy evenings on the screened porch. Nature and relaxation, perfectly blended.
Vaulted ceilings, skylights and a fabulous fireplace. Isn't life grand?
We use only top-quality bedding + linens to ensure you get a good night's sleep.

About this property

Pet-Friendly Home w/Hot Tub, Walk to Lake MI Beach

Summary:

Elegant-yet-comfy and just blocks from Lake Michigan beaches in Michiana Shores, this fully renovated, Frank Lloyd Wright-vibes cottage is a vacation dream set on a quiet corner lot! Relax in the Great Room in front of a stone fireplace and flat-screen TV. Make tasty vacay meals in the high-end Open Galley kitchen. Both BRs are super-stylish + cozy. All-new bathroom has shower-bath with marble flrs. Chill on the 3-Season porch, grill on the sun deck's barbecue, or gather 'round the firepit!



The Space:

The mantra for once you walk inside Meadow Pines is Stylish Design with Comfort in Mind! The Great Room‘s vaulted ceilings, skylights, solid wood flooring and magnificent stacked-stone fireplace invite you to settle in with a sense of richness. And our award-winning designer has selected all of the furnishings – including in the bedrooms, bathrooms and screened 3-Season porch – to reflect an appealing, yet cozy aesthetic.



The fully-equipped Open Galley kitchen is highlighted by top-of-the-line appliances – a Bosch dishwasher, included – and cherrywood cabinets. Do we say ooh-la-la? Yep, we do! And when you and your guests want to gather for a formal meal, there’s a sweet dining table out in the 3-Season porch area where y’all can enjoy whatever marvelous meal gets prepared. We hear guests love the stained-glass window decor and artisan craftsmanship that’s on obvious display throughout the cottage, reminiscent of the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. Uh-huh, we think you’ll be tickled, too.



Featuring top quality bedding and linens, plus hand-selected accessories and décor, you and your guests will sleep soundly and enjoy sweet dreams in either of the two richly appointed bedrooms. Each has ample closet and storage space, too. One bedroom also has sliding glass door access to the sun deck.



SLEEPING CONFIGURATION

Bedroom 1: Queen bed

Bedroom 2: Queen bed



The Meadow Pines’ bathroom is all-new with a metro-out-in-the-country sense of styling. The chic shower-bath is highlighted by a marble-with-beach-pebbles floor. All your essentials are provided for, as well. Plus, there’s a primo stackable washer-dryer combo to handle all your laundry needs.



When you want some outdoor relaxation time, we’ve gotcha’ covered. The sun deck has a sweet dinette set with an umbrella for shade, plus way-nice chaise lounges for some reclining R-and-R whenever the mood strikes you. And the gas grill out there is perfect for cooking up your favorite barbecue dishes. The fully fenced yard offers a private outdoor space to unwind, whether you're enjoying a quiet morning or letting your four-legged companion stretch their legs. As evening rolls around, sit yourself down in one of the classy Adirondack chairs with a fav beverage in hand and chat with your peeps or count shining stars to your heart’s content! And if you like, there’s beach supplies and bikes for y’all to ride, too. Speaking of beach stuff, once you get back from the beach and you want to rinse off, there’s a cool outdoor shower!



Besides being just a stone’s throw from a majestic Lake Michigan beach, you’re also a 10-minute drive away from enjoying the many activities afforded by the region’s largest recreational harbor in New Buffalo, all sorts of woodland, lake and riverside parks with hiking and biking trails galore, nearby Oselka Park, which has baseball fields, playground equipment and tennis courts, or the many popular restaurants, galleries and boutique shops of downtown New Buffalo – all just a hop, skip and a jump from Michiana Shores. And in Michigan City, just 5 miles away, you and your guests will find a wide range of options for eating, drinking, vacay activities and places to explore. One last treat to check out is walking distance away – Stop 50 Wood Fired Pizzeria, which cooks up some of the best pizza you’ll ever eat, as well as all sorts of other Italian goodies! By the way, we should also mention Meadow Pines is pet-friendly, just be sure to let us know in advance if you’re bringing a four-legged friend.

Property was great! Well maintained and thought of everything. The only part that surprised us was that the yard was not fully fenced in- not a problem unless you would like your pet off leash. Otherwise the property is in a great location and has everything you could need for a wonderful stay!

Family time.

The wooded neighborhood was lovely. Deer strolled right through the yard. We very much enjoyed the screened porch for playing games and the firepit area. Well stocked with everything we needed. We appreciated the little extra touches like cookies and coffee.

Wonderful Experience!

Wonderful house that is in a fabulous location. Rooms are clean and there is anything you would need for a fun beach day. We also thought the house decor was very cute. The best part was being able to use the fire pit at night and relax in the adironack chairs.The only thing that I would recommend to improve is a few ant traps on the back porch and front door, there were a lot of them. Not a huge deal as it is something to be expected in a house in the woods. Would highly recommend this for anyone visiting Michiana Shores!

This is a very cute little house. Everything was clean and in good shape and looked like the listing. They also had coffee and plenty of basics for the visit, which I highly appreciate, and newish bed linens. It’s in a nice community with a good wood fired pizza place a few blocks away. Only negatives are that it is VERY small - the bathroom and one bedroom in particular. And it’s a 15-20 minute walk to the nearest beach, which has zero parking. We ended up taking a car to ferry the kids and all our gear, then driving home and taking one of the bikes in the garage back to the beach.
