Wonderful retreat in Michigan!

Such a lovely space! The entire home was tastefully, and thoughtfully, appointed. Comfortable and clean bedrooms, and a nicely stocked kitchen. You are just steps away from the beach and can hear the waves from the porch! Check-in and communication with owners was a breeze. We had a wonderful time!

Spacious, very clean, nicely decorated dune home surrounded by beautiful trees. It's about 5 min walk and 60 steps down to the private community beach which kept our little people happy for most of the day. The home had a very well-stocked kitchen for cooking along with almost everything we needed during our stay - beach chairs, towels & toys, games, TVs, etc. New Buffalo was also fun with tourist activities. Excellent communication & wi-fi too.

I stayed at this property for about 6 days. Very nice place, short walk to the lake. Plenty of space around the house overall, and we had 12 people in the property. Everything was in good working order. People around the neighborhood are also friendly. Good responsiveness from the hosts, but we had no real issues. If I was nitpicking, I would say the kitchen is a little small for a larger group such as ours, but not everyone will have 12 people. Another thing worth pointing out is that the driveway is pretty steep. It's worth some thought if you have elderly people or people that are less ambulatory. Overall, it was great and i would book it again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your stay. There are definitely pro-cons living along the lake with sand dunes and the natural terrain. We will revisit our description - we hope it's clear there are narrow steps down to the basement level walkout, and we'll double check to ensure it's clear the driveway is also perched atop the steep hill. That aside, we are so happy to have hosted your group and would gladly welcome you back! Thank you so much.

We had a wonderful stay at this home, and enjoyed all of the perks of the property! The screened-in porch was perfect for enjoying our meals or playing cards :)The fire pit was great to hang around, too. It was so convenient having baby items (pack n play & high chair) that we didn’t have to bring ourselves. And the beach chairs & toys were perfect for the beach! Great location & the owners were helpful when we had a minor issue. Highly recommend this place for your Michigan stay!
