About this property

The White House - Brand New 5 bedroom, with hot tub - blocks from everything!!!!


Welcome to Harbor Country.
This sprawling five bedroom 3-1/2 bathroom, 2 family room home is the perfect place for you and your family or friends.
The first floor includes a king bedroom with tv, full bathroom, spacious dining room, large gourmet kitchen with island and plenty of counter space, a large family room with a flat-screened TV, a great place to gather! That then leads to the laundry room and powder room.
At the top of the staircase you will find a loft/sitting area that includes a flat screened TV. That then leads to the remaining 4 bedrooms & 2 full baths. The first bedroom includes two full size beds, second and third bedroom are both fitted with queen beds and the master bedroom includes a king bed.
This home is just a short walk to Brewster's Italian, or waterside fine dining at Bentwood Tavern or The Terrace Room. From our home you'll enjoy the short walk to downtown New Buffalo and the beach. Whether you are planning an all-adult trip or a family getaway this home sleeps 12 comfortably, and is the perfect complement to any of your planned activities. Enjoy our spacious backyard for outdoor games, hanging out in the hot-tub, playing a game on our bocci ball court or relaxing by the fire-pit with a glass of a local wine or micro-brew. This open concept house plan allows for plenty of room for the kids to be entertained while you sit back, relax and enjoy Pure Michigan. We have added exterior cameras to monitor the exterior of our home for liability reasons for our insurance. They are located at the front door and side of driveway. There are absolutely no cameras located inside the house.
This location is ideal in so many ways. Just an hour away from Chicago by car or Amtrak, you'll soon be steps away to all the conveniences of Harbor Country. Hop on a shuttle to Four Winds Casino, or a short drive to Blue Chip Casino and the Outlet Mall. A great place to take walks to town or the beach as well as bike riding. Tour the wineries and micro-breweries and so much more.


There is a house guide in a binder at the property with all the information you will need.


Also, City of New Buffalo passed an ordinance, effective 6/14/21, that limits parking to 4 cars maximum, limits number of guests to 14, enforces the noise ordinance and requires a Reservation Summary. That form requests the full name and date of birth for the main contact, full name and age of each guest, and make, model and license plate number (including State) for each car that will be on the property. That form needs to be in the city’s hand no less than 24 hours before reservation. That form will be sent to you in a fillable format but if you would rather send me the information, I can fill it out for you. Thank you for your cooperation.

Family weekend

your home is beautiful and we really appreciated your sharing it with us. we thought it was closer to the beach and did not quite know how to get to the beach. A simple map of how to get to the beach would be very helpful. unfortunately we turned left instead of right on our first try.

Wonderful family ladies Wine Trip

What a great long weekend with our family ladies wine trip. The house was perfect! Very comfortable for 6 of us. Minor issue with the GFI plugs in all the bathrooms. Property manager offered to try and find someone to stop by but we told her not to bother since it was a minor issue on the weekend. Hot tub was great! Weather was cold, rainy and dreary, but we made the most of it. House looked like all new construction. Highly recommend for big families!

Great House for Family Vacation

This vacation rental is perfect for a big group or family. Plenty of room to spread out but nice big gathering spaces for time together. Check-in and check-out process super easy. Great location close to downtown New Buffalo, the marina, and beach, all of which were walkable.

Summer Lake Michigan Trip

Overall, very nice stay for our party of 9. House is newer and clean as expected from prior reviews, and efficiently spaced. Though max capacity is listed for 14, we felt just right sized for our party of 9. Kids enjoyed the bocce court. Bit more of a walk from town than expected, but still short walk nonetheless. We were unfortunately unable to enjoy the hot tub during our trip due to a malfunction, but the property manager was able to identify the problem soon and issued a credit as we would not be expected to use the hot tub during our trip. Did appreciate quick response by the property manager when issues came up. Cleaners who arrived during our check-out may have been more rude that soured our trip's ending, but that should not reflect on the house or property manager so would still give 5 stars overall for the stay.

Great location & home

Beautiful, new home, close to shops & restaurants. 4 bedrooms upstairs, one on main floor worked so well for sleeping areas. Our group needed 2 homes to accommodate our vacation this year...this was 1 1/2 blocks from our other home, which was so convenient. Best of all....Mary Lynn, our property host, was very accessible & responded within minutes--she is our favorite!

Fantastic cousins weekend!

Eight of us traveled from 3 different states to meet in New Buffalo for the weekend. The house couldn’t possibly have been better, down to the smallest detail. It was super easy to communicate with Mary and she was always kind and accommodating. We really enjoyed the restaurants and beach, as well as hanging out in the house, on the deck and in the yard. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Lynn

Host profile image
I have been a native to New Buffalo for 9 years now and absolutely love it for all it has to offer. I believe that is what helps me to be the property manager I am since I reside in the same town that I manage homes in, it gives me so much insight for any questions, suggestions or concerns that my guest might have. My goal is to help make your experience perfect in every way from your reservation process to your stay in our home.
We know you will love New Buffalo!

Why they chose this property

The owners chose the location as it is literally in walking distance to everything you might look for - grocery shopping, drug store, many restaurants, two ice cream shops, two coffee shops, banks, gift shopping and most of all the majestic Lake Michigan. The owners spent many hours picking the right layout for an ideal vacation home for large family or friend gatherings. From the 5 spacious bedrooms and 3-1/2 baths from the two family rooms. We know you will be happy that you chose to stay in this home.

What makes this property unique

There are so many benefits to staying at The White House. There is a bedroom on the first floor for those that cannot climb stairs. There are 3-1/2 bathrooms as I have discovered through traveling with my family that extra bathrooms are a plus. The fact that there are two family rooms would be ideal for couples traveling with children. The backyard is ideal for lawn games, a nice cozy fire at our fire pit or relaxing in the hot tub. We know you will enjoy spending time out in the yard. The location is one of the high points for sure as you can walk to everything that New Buffalo offers and a short drive to all that Harbor Country offers. For those that love Casinos there are two casinos within 15 minutes.
