Property: Private Beach Escape


Our family had a wonderful stay! The location near the beach was fantastic and the property had everything we could have wanted for a fun and relaxing getaway. Perfect spot if you are interested in hanging out, playing games and spending time together. Highly recommend for anyone interested in being close to the beach in a comfortable place!

Property: Private Beach Escape


"The house was great, and the location even better. A very quick walk across the street to get to a private beach (was not crowded any day we were there!), and walkable or quick drive down to the main area of New Buffalo. We loved the kayaks and the backyard - it was too hot for the hot tub or firepit but I imagine fall at this home would be wonderful :)"

Property: Mid Century Beauty


"We had a great stay at the house. Location was perfect for going to the beach or into town for a quick bite to eat. The house was furnished nicely, with a fully stocked kitchen and a great rec room in the basement. There were plenty of items for the beach (towels, etc.) and the outdoor shower was great for rinsing off the sand before going inside. Already looking forward to our next trip!"
