The house was a great location to stay at in New Buffalo. It was a quick drive to the downtown area for restaurants and shops. The house was well stocked with everything needed for a long weekend.

A Fabulous Weekend!
My sisters and I were celebrating two milestone birthdays. When they saw the house in person, that set the tone for the weekend. They kept commenting on how beautiful it is and how meticulous the decor. It was comfortable and we felt right at home, only with the added plus of a hot tub and gorgeous sun deck. It was minutes from all of our planned activities and so easy to navigate the surrounding area. Lovely place to stay!!

Beautiful home!
We had a great girls weekend in this property! The home and it's furnishings are beautiful, and perfect distance to New Buffalo and the wine trail! The owner was prompt and had thorough info on the house and the surrounding area. The only negative, I would suggest a bed in the 3rd bedroom. The pull out bed is NOT comfortable.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is was our 2nd time visiting this home and once again we had a good time! The home came equipped with everything we needed for the weekend and was very clean. The plus is always the jacuzzi, we loved it. The host was very accommodating. Only issue we had was that the downstairs bathroom shower did not have working hot water.. other than that everything was great!

Women’s wine weekend 2023
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is perfect! Very clean and comfortable and about a two minute drive from all the action including the restaurants, breweries , and the beach. Our only issue was with the checkout time. For a house that sleeps eight and only has two bathrooms, a 10 AM check out was a little tight when you factor in showering, getting ready, making breakfast, and completing all the items on the checkout checklist. Other than that, we would give it 3 1/2 out of four stars.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a lovely home, even prettier than the pictures. We loved the bonus living room with the beautiful bright windows. The decor was very pretty. The location is perfect. There were five us and we all slept comfortably. There is definitely a lot of room for relaxing and we definitely could have included more guests. The travel contacts were very responsive and helpful. We will be planning an annual trip and we will definitely be returning to this home for a weekend stay. We wish we could have stayed all week!

Nice house, great fie pit, well equipped kitchen, clean, bikes and cornhole too.
All good really, only issues were plumbing. Discovered a leak from the upstairs bathroom into the dining room, and the downstairs showere stopped working on the day we left, couldn’t get got water and then couldn’t shut off the water. Property manager was told about both and they were very responsive. I would check with them to make certain everything is corrected.

Relaxing visit
This home provides a nice, relaxing atmosphere to stay in. We enjoyed the close driving proximity to town. While the description states it’s walking distance (and it is) we never felt comfortable walking as it is a curvy road with no shoulders, and then you would need to cross a four lane highway to get to the closest brewery. But it was just a couple minutes drive to several nice breweries and restaurants. There were also a couple of spas close by which we enjoyed. The house itself had a few small issues but I let management know and they were very prompt in their response. The shower head in the upstairs bedroom didn’t work well, but they were going to fix it as soon as I let them know. The TV in the living room wasn’t a smart TV and only had a few channels but there was DVDs available. As they mention, you will want to bring your own towels and pillows or blankets. They provide some but we needed more. Great visit and the company was great to communicate with.

Sibling Reunion
First of all, this is a very nice and spacious home for our three adult couples. Tonya was easily available. We enjoyed the nice kitchen, bedrooms, and gathering areas, both inside and out. We were however a bit surprised at the lack of some typical amenities, such as bed coverings, toiletries in the bathrooms, and some expected kitchen items (salt/pepper shakers were empty, for example.) I don't expect to have to buy salt and pepper or napkins. It lacked the nice "extras" that we expect for the price. We just felt for a little more, it could have been an excellent vacation. In addition, batteries were missing from 3 of the remotes (and no spares available). Water pressure was a problem if more than one use was running (washer, dishwasher, shower). Only two bicycles were at property instead of 4 listed, and there were no helmets. The Ghost Isle Brewery which was a very nice place, is really not walkable. It's more than a block and you would have to cross 4 lanes of highway. Just plan on walking wherever you go.

Mini family vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 2 families stay for a weekend. The house was just as pictures in the photos and it was incredibly clean. There was plenty of space for all of us and the hot tub was a nice feature as well. The location was within a very short drive to downtown. The only concerns we had, were the lack of pillows and towels provided. Luckily we had brought a couple pillows but we were still 1 short and one of our girls had to use a decorative pillow. We also were unable to find a bottom sheet for the pull out couch, but just used the top sheet instead. The very minimal amount of bath towels were provided as well, and with all young girls with long hair, a few extras would have been nice. Our biggest issue was the lack of water pressure in the house. When a couple people are trying to bath at the same time, the upstairs shower has almost zero water coming out at times. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but there were just a couple issues as mentioned.

Great House!
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home! The house was clean and as described. The bedrooms are away from each other so there’s privacy. 2/3 beds are comfortable. The family room is a great gathering space with lots of movies and a nice tv. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need! The deck is nice and private. We didn’t use the hot tubs but it’s a very nice option. Definitely would stay here again!
