We had a minor problem with our tankless water heater and Dawn was very understanding. There wasn’t an interruption in hot water but we had a repair man stop by to fix it and she was so helpful.

If you have kids or grandkids, this is the place you need to stay! Leann has all of the gear so you don’t need to bring it with you. This home was perfect for our group of six adults and two toddlers. She was super helpful responding to questions and giving recommendations. We could walk to almost everything and we loved that. Having the option of the beach or the pool was great for the little ones.

This was our second year in a row staying at Moe’s Cottage for our annual girls trip, and once again it was absolutely perfect! The cottage is cozy, comfortable, and has everything we need for a relaxing getaway. We especially love having access to the pool, and the location can’t be beat—close to both downtown New Buffalo and the beach.It’s the perfect home base for enjoying everything New Buffalo has to offer, whether you’re shopping, dining, spending time at the beach, or simply relaxing with friends. The cottage is always clean, welcoming, and makes us feel right at home.We’ve made so many wonderful memories here and look forward to coming back again. Highly recommend Moe’s Cottage to anyone looking for a charming and convenient place to stay in New Buffalo!

Our family of 7 had a perfect 2-night stay at Cottage Moe! The location cannot be beat, right downtown and short walk to the lake, shops and restaurants. The house itself is spacious, decorated to perfection and has everything we needed for cooking, heading to the beach and relaxing. So much attention to detail in the furnishings and lots of special touches. A great stay!

Great location. Easy walk to everything New Buffalo has to offer. Communication with the host was excellent. Cottage Mo worked great for all 7 of us, including my daughter’s family of 4 (including a toddler and a 1 year old), me and my wife, and another daughter. Plenty of space. Sleeping arrangements worked very well.
