The house was clean and looked as the pictures, it was easy check in. The hot tub was nice . We didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit there was a bunch of weeds and old pine needles in it , also the grass was long and patio furniture and area had not been clean up , there was also some kind of animal that was living in the garage , there was animal scat all over garage floor. The location was very quiet and relaxing

Response from VrboOwner on 19 May 2026
Thank you for your review. We apologize for any inconvenience. We have contacted the landscapers to address these issues. We also will check out the garage as we were not aware of an animal in there. We hope you will return again in the future. Thanks!
The house was in a great location - it was an easy walk downtown to restaurants and shops. Because the owners supply a wagon, beach chairs and umbrella to use, we were able to walk to the beach without having to pay for parking and maneuver a busy parking scene. Without the wagon to help haul our stuff, it would have been too difficult to walk there. The house was clean and looks exactly as pictured. The host was gracious when we made a very late request / inquiry about a potential to check in early - which we appreciated. It was initially communicated that they were having the hot tub looked at and would let us know if/when it could be used. There was no follow-up communication, but we didn't reach out either, as the week we were there was too hot for the hot tub. Overall, we definitely recommend this rental!
Very Cozy Home close to beautiful downtown New Buffalo. Many places to eat and shops to explore. Highly recommend for a nice weekend getaway.

Reviewer Comments:
This house was perfect for us. We love the restaurants in New Buffalo and we also like the outlet mall nearby. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing in the evening. This is a clean, comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood.
Wonderful location and house! The yard was perfect for relaxing and reading. Kitchen had updated appliances that made meals so easy. AC and fans kept everything cool. The cart for the beach chairs and umbrella were wonderful and made the experience so much easier.
The house was exactly what we were looking for. It was clean and easy to check in. The location was perfect! We were able to walk to all of the shopping, restaurants and spa! The hot tub was the perfect addition. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a fantastic time! The place was clean and beautiful. Had everything we needed for a short girls trip stay, and very close to downtown. Highly recommend!
Stayed for a little weekend trip to New Buffalo. The house is very cute, clean, and great walkability to downtown New Buffalo. Easy check in and out process. Would recommend!

Great location to everything in New Buffalo! Perfect for a girls weekend.
Perfect location and was walking distance to downtown. The host was also quick to respond to any questions I had. Nothing but good things to say about this stay. Definately will be back.
Everything was great. Place is very clean and well organized. Good location and walking distance to restaurants, a bit of a walk to the beach if you have a lot of gear but also a quick ride in car. Loved that backyard with fire pit! Would stay again.
