A Great Time was Had by All!

The home was perfect for our group- large open floor plan, well set up kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. We loved the upstairs deck for gathering as a group to watch the sunset, the kids loved the hot tub, and the garage apartment was perfect for our son’s family with a baby. We loved the beach and the nearby park with pickleball courts

Family gathering

Our family of 14 gathered to celebrate our moms 80th birthday. The house was perfect - beds for everyone and two fun legs gathering spaces that were ideal for our group. We’ve rented lots of houses and this one has the best equipped kitchen of any we’ve stayed in. The hot tub was wonderful and the location amazing for walking in the beach and a quick trip to New Buffalo! Trupti was helpful ahead of check in I would go back to this house again.

Great Place To Stay!

Our family really enjoyed staying in the house for the weekend as we enjoyed the lake and the neighborhood! Plenty of sleeping arrangements and a large kitchen to cook meals in was amazing. And the view of the lake from the large living room windows was fantastic as well! The host was very nice and helped provide some recommendations for spots to check out around town. Definitely recommend.

Great stay!

House was exactly as pictured and wonderful for our big group. Lots of beds and everything was clean and well stocked. Would recommend to anyone! It was a bummer that the beach entrance two blocks from the house was closed up for us in late April, but certainly not an issue with the property itself.

A Great Save!

We have been utilizing this weekend getaway for over 20 years, and it is a significant aspect of our annual plans. This year, we ran into a bit of a snafu and we thought that all was lost!In response to this situation, we engaged with VRBO customer service, which proved to be exceptionally effective in facilitating a rebooking. The instant confirmation provided and the constructive dialogue with the property manager regarding our specific needs and preferences were both commendable and professional. We look forward to many more years in this exceptional space.

Perfect House for our College Group Reunion

This house is larger than the photos show it. The main room and basement room are very large. It's very well stocked with just about everything you could need. One of the nicest VRBO's that any of us had stayed at. The house was perfect for our reunion and added so much to our enjoyment of the weekend. Our host made check-in a breeze and happily and promptly answered my questions leading up to our trip. Didn't want to leave!

Beautiful Stay!

This was our second year in a row staying at this house. The house is great for us (three families…lots of teenagers!) Everyone had enough space and enjoyed all the amenities of the house, hot tub, ping-pong, video games and the fire pit. Views to Lake Michigan are stunning. The access to the beach is down the road over a hill but definitely worth the walk. It’s one of our favorite in Michigan! I would definitely stay again!

Just What It Says on the Tin

This place was exactly what we were after. Perfect in every way. Beach was easy enough to get to, kids had plenty of space to play, had both the balcony and the screened-in porch as sunset viewing sites… I could go on. In short, if this is the kind of lace you’re looking at, this is the place you want.

About the host

Hosted by Tripti Kasal

My husband and I live in Chicago and have been coming to this area with our two sons for many years. It's the perfect location for relaxing, having family fun and creating great memories. We love sharing this home with extended family & friends as well as our many happy renters who create their own friend & family memories.

Why they chose this property

We built this new home after owning property in the area for several years. We love the location - directly facing the lake and a short walk to the beach. The property was designed specifically for large groups to get together and create memories. Large common areas, multiple seating areas and fun outdoor spaces.

The Village of Michiana is a beautiful lake front community with sandy beaches, a picturesque creek, beautiful streets for long walks and a fully equipped kids playground. We love the Harbor Country area with it's many dining options, wineries, breweries and shopping.
