My family of 12 stayed here for vacation and it completely exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. The level of care and attention to detail from the host made us feel right at home. The house was really big. Was fully stocked with everything we needed. Would have liked a dining table that had more than 6 chairs but overall house was great. Location close to lake, beach, shopping and restaurants.

Long weekend trip with multigenerational family. The wide open common spaces worked great when hanging at the house, property and outdoor seating also a plus. Less than 10 minutes to Washington Park Beach and Zoo, Blue Chip Casino, Zorn Brewery. Less than 15 minutes to downtown New Buffalo and New Buffalo Beach. A little something for all age groups.The one recommendation we had would be for all bedrooms to have a tv.

MI City Stay

We had a very nice stay at the property. The big open rooms were good for our young grandkids. Our only suggestion would be to add a large island and a larger table in the kitchen.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re so glad you had a nice stay and that the open layout worked well for your grandkids! We appreciate your suggestion regarding the kitchen setup. While the current 8-person table meets the needs of most guests, we’re always looking for ways to improve and will certainly keep your input in mind. We’re grateful for your visit and hope to welcome you again in the future!

Enjoyed staying at this property. It was well equipped and spacious inside and outside. Our host, Matthew Long was super. He was quick to answer questions and provided a very nice home.

Matthew's property was just as described. It was clean and he was a very responsive host. We were a short drive from both Michigan City and New Buffalo. We enjoyed how quite the home was but how easy it was to get to the beach, shopping and restaurants. The house is spacious, has most of the basic kitchen supplies you need to make meals (we cooked breakfasts and dinners at the home), and was clean. It was great for our family trip of 6 adults and 3 kids under 3.

Family Vacation

The property was just what we needed for our large family vacation. The living/dining/family area is massive and made a great place for adults and kids to gather. The outside area was expansive and just right for picnics, playing, and fellowshipping. The kitchen was nicely equipped. There is tons of parking. The property is nicely isolated, but close to the locations we wanted to visit. We were VERY satisfied and will very likely come again.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The house is very large with a lot of wasted space. There’s very little counter space in the kitchen. There’s plenty of room for an island. The furniture is a mish mash of different pieces that look like they came from Good Will. The kitchen chairs have broken parts. The bathroom towels look like rags that I’ve thrown away. The kitchen garbage can was filthy with garbage on the inside lid. The freezer had ice trays instead of an ice maker. We had to purchase ice. The bathrooms are next to each other down a long hallway quite aways from four of the bedrooms. Makes it inconvenient for using the bathroom in the middle of the night. For the price we expected a much more upscale place. We will not use this VRBO again.

A family member arranged to have a family gathering (all of us from out of town from 2-6 hrs away). We didn’t know the area well and only have one day all together. Typically we meet at a park etc. but not knowing the area made that tough. I was nervous about potential weather issues and was looking for a back up plan that would allow pets. This property ended up being our only plan when my family looked at the listing. My family of 5 and my parents stayed the weekend, but we entertained 30 people for our reunion there. It’s really perfect for this purpose. The weather ended up beautiful, so we were outside most the day, but plenty of room inside if it hadn’t work out. The covered patio was awesome. Nice lighting, a fan, and insect/dirt free area for our oldest family members. Would highly recommend!

Super nice rental!

From all the rooms to the fire pit I wish we had more people. We had 6 & that was perfect for the only 2 bathrooms but a girl’s trip here would be awesome still. So spacious! Wish there were a little more kitchen items but they still had a good amount. One of my friends left her new Fitbit & the owners were kind enough to notify the cleaning crew who then left it for us wrapped up in the mailbox. How kind. Super great stay best location & worth every penny! Even the nearby town Michigan City, we went shopping in had plenty of options. There was a Dollar General around the corner as well for simple items. Highly recommend.

Great Multi-Family property in Mich city

We had a great time at "the Compound" as we so lovingly came to call it over our stay. This is a great multi-family house- 6 bedrooms and two full baths. The two main living spaces are kid friendly and the backyard firepit and game table were great additions. Plenty of parking, and supplies on hand. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean. Super close to the beach, attractions and everything Mich City has to offer. Matt was super responsive and great to work with.
