Had a wonderful stay. House had everything you need for your stay. Lots of dishes,flatware,glassware,etc. Had both a Keurig and drip coffee maker. Two living areas that are very easy to relax in. Beds and linens were so comfortable!It's one house away from lake,so I feel asleep to the sound of the waves. The pool is just great,it's so relaxing even just sitting by it. It's gorgeous at night with its lights. I will definitely will be coming back next year

Everything was good. Plenty of games and pool toys for kids. My recommendation would be too add a big fan in the garage as it's very hot and stuffy to try to play ping pong. Also if you want to cook anything special just bring a few pans. Overall a great place, great location and close to beach. Our family enjoyed our week.

Perfect Lakehouse!
Had a great time at this location with a group of friends. House is right near the lake, walkable to downtown, and has a pool/hot tub/ping pong table/grill area/firepits for activities at the house. Very cleanly, large with many beds, and lots of amenities. Beautiful town, would definitely recommend.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!
I booked this property for a fall girls' getaway, and it was perfection. First, the booking process was super easy, and the owner seems really nice. I feel like if there had been any issues (there weren't), she would have been super quick to respond and help. The house is super cute, clean, and well-kept. We all loved the decor. Our favorite was definitely the hot tub! We loved that there's a privacy fence, and that the hot tub is obviously well maintained. We've already talked about booking again in the future. We'd love to visit in the summer and take advantage of the pool! It's just such a great little property. It's so close to cute little shops and restaurants and an easy 20 minute drive to Michigan City for shopping. If you're planning a visit to New Buffalo, this is definitely a great place to stay. Highly recommend!

Great Weekend Getaway
Wanted a close weekend getaway with some friends. New Buffalo is a great place to go living near Chicago and this house makes it even better. The house is a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk to everything you need in New Buffalo. It was great to be close, but also in the neighborhood so it was very peaceful. The various living spaces inside AND outside make this even better. It was too cold for the pool, but we did get to enjoy the hot tub. Michelle was very quick to respond to a few questions I had. We all agree we would definitely stay here again..maybe even bring the kids to enjoy the pool.

A+ Experience. Loved the pool.
Check in/out process was super easy. The house was clean, and the beds were comfortable. There are PLENTY of extra pillows (and cases) so you're bound to find a pillow you like. The pool was fabulous! Loved the electric cover to help keep it clean because there are a lot of trees on the property. Personally, I would recommend trimming those trees back to allow more sunlight on the pool area. My only complaint would be the outdoor furniture and the pool accessories. There were holes in all the floaties and the only lounger chair appeared to be crumbling so none of us dared sit in it. Also, there were spiderwebs everywhere (I mean everywhere) outside so we had to go through with a broom and knock them all down before we could sit comfortably. Other than that, great place.

Nice home with pool!
Our family had a really nice time staying at Michelle’s place! Our kids loved the pool and bunk beds and it was a fairly easy walk to town. The private beach in the neighborhood was a little farther than expected and very small, though that was to be expected with the beach erosion in the area. The public beach wasn’t too far at all and much larger. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Perfect for our young family
We have been to New Buffalo many times, but this home was a gem for our young family. The proximity to the neighborhood beach, marina, and playground gave us plenty to do nearby! The space in the home was comfortable, clean, and well laid out. We hope to return!
