Downtown Hideaway
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Searching for a comfortable getaway that's quiet yet walkable to the best of downtown New Buffalo? Look no further than Downtown Hideaway, a beautifully updated, four-bedroom home on a peaceful side street that's half a mile from the heart of downtown and one mile from New Buffalo Beach.
The 3,000-square-foot interior was made for entertaining, with hardwood floors throughout and an open kitchen, dining, and living area that's perfect for a group looking to spend quality time together. Find plentiful counter and prep space, a gas stove, and two ovens in the kitchen, as well as a long wet bar on the opposite side of the room with a beverage fridge, a second ice maker, and room for mixing drinks. There are even several drawers full of wine glasses and martini glasses, and an easy gas-start, wood-burning fireplace to keep you cozy during cocktail hour. The grassy back yard is accessed through sliding doors from the living area, where you'll find a table and cushioned chairs for outdoor dining, a couch for lounging outside on the patio, a gas grill for summer barbecues, and a private hot tub. There are also torches with mosquito repellant for your comfort and skewers to use while roasting marshmallows around the firepit. Other great at-home touches include a washer/dryer combo, high-speed WiFi, cable TV, and extra thought given to comfortable seating and beds.
At night, the bedroom wing is just off the kitchen. There are two king bedrooms, one bedroom with a queen-size bed, and a spacious primary suite accessed from the living area with a king-size bed, a large walk-in closet, and a new and beautiful bathroom with a shower and tub. Please note that the primary bedroom, the second bedroom, and the bathrooms have wide doorways with no sills, designed to easily accommodate everyone.
As for the location, you'll be within a couple blocks of fun, casual restaurants that include Jackie's Cafe and Rio's Mexican Food. The famous Oink's Ice Cream Stand is just around the corner and the New Buffalo Farmers Market is a few minutes' walk from the house. Whittaker Woods Golf Course is only two miles away, offering a bus that will come and pick you up, while Equilibrium Gym is a short walk from the house, with daily and weekly passes available.
