About the host
Hosted by Jason
Why they chose this property
The natural beauty of the Hesston corridor is well know by locals as a throw back to a bygone era of country living. While close to myriad shopping, restaurant, and entertainment options of Three Oaks, New Buffalo, Union Pier, Michigan City, Laporte and beyond, the property provides a level of privacy and serenity only offered by being off the beaten path and outside the density of the vacation towns themselves.
What makes this property unique
What sets Ripple apart from other vacation options is that we are situated off the main road on 14 acres of land, limiting the noise and neighbor interaction you will find in one of the higher density adjacent vacation towns. This property provides the opportunity to relax and unwind with friends and family without distractions of surrounding activity.
