The Cottage

My family and I stayed at The Cottage and had a wonderful time. The cottage was clean and just a short walk to the beach. It is also a close drive to New Buffalo. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again.

Perfect Lake Michigan Getaway

We had an amazing long weekend at this cottage. The home had everything we needed for our beach time (chairs, towels, umbrella, and even a boogie board). We loved relaxing on the porch after a long day in the sand, and the quiet street was wonderful. Host was also very helpful and responsive to our questions.

Quant and quiet

The home and neighborhood are lovely. Though in what feels like a safe location the area is populated and off of a main highway. Though the walk to the beach isn’t far the bike lock used for the gate was unexpected. Well worth the walk the view and beach access is just as stunning during off season.

Fantastic location and wonderful house

This is a great place to vacation. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen is so well stocked with all pans and utensils that you would ever need. The big thrill is the lack is just a few minutes walk away.

This was a nice place in a nice location. I rated 3 star because the exterior needs cleaning and maintenance. The inside looks like the pictures. Beautiful beach.

3 college friends reuniting

This Vrbo truly lives up to its description, cozy cottage. Perfect for three friends to relax and enjoy Lake Michigan. Beautiful private beach and every kitchen utensil imaginable. The host was very responsive to every question asked before the trip and during. The outside and landscape could be spruced up a bit for curb appeal, but once inside, perfect.

The Lake House

Very clean and cozy, everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The semi-private beach was beautiful and not crowded at all and my kiddos could swim and roam, and not be close to others during the pandemic.
