About this house rental
Our cottage is only half a block from downtown New Buffalo and an easy walk to Lake Michigan (3 blocks to water and 5 blocks to beach). You won't have to worry about beach parking or fighting for a spot at Redamaks or Stray Dog! Everything is a short walk away.
The cottage has two bedrooms--with a queen in one room and full/twin bunk beds in the second. In addition, the couch in the living room is a full futon, and the couch in the back porch folds into a full bed.
An unattached studio is outfitted with a very comfy daybed with a trundle that creates a full bed. Studio has electricity and internet.
The main cottage has two enclosed 3-season porches! A small one in front is the perfect place to read and relax. The enormous porch in back has floor-to-ceiling windows that allow you to take in the summer breeze while playing board games, watching a movie, or just enjoying the birds that flock to the backyard. An electric fireplace takes the chill off cool spring and fall evenings.
The cottage has 1.5 baths. The main bath has a walk in shower.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a double stove, dishwasher, garbage disposal, microwave, and plenty of counter space. A washer and dryer is located just off the kitchen.
The cottage has high-speed internet, a PS4 game station, a Wii, and you can easily access your Netflix, iTunes, and Amazon accounts from TVs in the living room and back porch.
The cottage is kid friendly and a great escape for adults, as well.
We've lived in New Buffalo since 2003 and know the area well. We'd be pleased to help you plan your stay. We know where all the best restaurants are--the places that don't require an hour wait! Please let us know if you have any questions!

The house is walkable to just about everything. The house itself is very charming with an artsy vibe. Well equipped with everything you need. Communication with Jennifer was excellent and easy. Our senior dogs also had a lovely stay.

We loved our stay at Jennifer’s property! The house was so comfortable and more than enough space for our group of 3. Everything was clean when we arrived and ready for us to settle in. We certainly appreciated all of the towels and how well equipped the kitchen was. The sunroom off the back was our favorite spot with both a dining table and a sitting/TV area. Loved that we had access to Netflix, Hulu, etc - always something to watch! The location of this house is ideal. We did not use our car once after arriving. Easy walk to town, all the restaurants, and the public beach. I would recommend a wagon if you have kids or are bringing a lot of gear to the beach. Jennifer provided great recommendations of things to do and places to eat during our stay, and we referred to them often. The property would definitely work great if you are bringing a dog, and we wish he had brought ours! Truly enjoyed our stay here and are looking forward to coming back next year!

6.0 / 10.0Average·Jun 2018
The house is very charmingly decorated and I loved all the different art displayed as well as the great back screened in porch; however the living room couch and chairs were so uncomfortable For both of us. Also, the grass was very tall and needed a mow.
