This house was perfect for our family of 5! The kids especially loved the toys and the back yard. The beach supplies and easy access to the beach made it even better.

A wonderful place for a family getaway! The cottage is beautiful, clean, and in a great location just a short walk to the beach and close to the dunes. We loved the outdoor space for grilling, playing cards, and spending time together. It’s also a great home base for biking, exploring nearby towns, or simply relaxing. We made wonderful family memories here and would definitely stay again.

Elisa was incredibly helpful during our stay. She was attentive to the questions we asked and was responsive throughout the duration of our trip! The house was very well stocked with everything we needed for the trip! It was right at the change of season so the patio wasn't quite cleaned up but otherwise this was the most perfect spot! Thank you Elisa for a great stay!

The property is near the Red Arrow Highway so it's very easy to travel to nearby towns for shopping and dining. The house has a dream kitchen and large rooms except the bathrooms are small. It's comfortable and we would rent it again.

The perfect spot for exploring both Union Pier and New Buffalo! It was so cozy and made this relaxing girls trip even better. Our host was a great communicator and the house was beautiful and well organized. Tons of extra blankets, comfy beds, coffee, modern bathrooms, and great outdoor space! Being only a 6 minute drive to wineries, restaurants, beaches, and shopping made it the perfect stay! We will definitely be coming back!

Beach Dream House

Driftwood Cottage has everything you need for a dreamy Midwest lake holiday. The home is comfortable, clean and well equipped with everything you need whether beach chairs, toys, towels or board games later on. Management is easy to reach and responsive.The beach itself is private, close and even has parking. Our family loved the experience and look forward to returning.

The house is cute. We had to cut our stay short for reasons that were out of our control. But overall, it was a good experience. The owner was very communicative and nice.

The house was very nice, clean, updated. The location was great for us, close to Warren Dunes State Park. The grandkids love climbing the dune! The private beach was a short walk, we enjoyed going there in the evening. The landscaping was a bit neglected, but had a nice outdoor eating area. Nice grill and blackstone(but too hot to use while we were there). Many toys and games. There is a piano, we brought sheet music and played a few songs! Also, close to New Buffalo, where we enjoyed a sailboat ride and had dinner at Villa Nova pizza( very good pizza, recommended by our captain) and Caseys(one of my personal favorites for years).

Beautiful home a short walk to a private beach on Lake Michigan! That in itself is reason enough to stay. The house was in a great location close to shops and restaurants and was well stocked with everything we needed to cook (including upgraded appliances) or to hang out comfortably. We definitely enjoyed our stay!
