This place had everything we needed! Walking distance to the downtown area, easy parking, and a playground nearby for the kids. The enclosed front porch was a great bonus space to hang out in as well.

A great girls weekend getaway! Loved the location. We would definitely stay here again. Had an issue with the air conditioning, they came out and had it fix by the time we came back from dinner.

Nice family getaway

We stayed here for the 4th of July week and it was a great location for walking to holiday festivities. The house was cute and just what we needed. There were a couple minor cleaning issues when we first arrived but the property owner was very responsive and took care of things. I would recommend this stay.

Cute home close to everything!

Nice weekend stay within walking distance to downtown and a quick drive to the casino. Lots of restaurants and bars close by. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. Front porch was enclosed, it was nice to sit and read while watching the traffic go by. Hot tub was nice and hot! We would go back.

New Buffs Cottage

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend getaway. It met all of our needs. Property manager was easy to communicate with and assisted promptly when our battery died on our car providing us with a jump and mechanic is needed.

Sister getaway weekend

Overall, our stay was good. We wish we had more blankets as the ones on the beds are very thing and reached out to the property owner who was very communicative but we never received any blankets. Good location to walk to all downtown new Buffalo.

Great location!

The house is centrally located so we could walk to a few places and got to several beaches fairly easily. My kids loved the ping pong table in the basement. The hot tub was a hit as well. I contacted the property manager once and they replied quickly and addressed a small issue. Great place!

Perfect vacation house

This house was just perfect for me and my partner. Would be perfect for a family with multiple kids or a girls trip. Everything was super clean and up to date. Hot tub was very clean and easy to use. The location was also perfect. We walked everywhere. Management group very easy to get a hold of. This is the first rental I would re- book!

Super cute house with a great location in New Buffalo! At one point, the batteries in the keypad lock ran out. I reached someone right away and they quickly came to replace the batteries. Much appreciated!

Girls Trip

Overall we were pleased with the size of the home and the amenities. The location allowed us to walk to the beach, grocery store and restaurants. Only deducted one star for location due to the fact this home is on a busy, main road. This did not negatively impact our stay, but maybe should be shown in the listing (unless I missed it?) for others who may be sensitive to road noise.
