We had such a wonderful few days here. The view from the deck was amazing and there was everything we needed to enjoy time on the beach. The house was very clean and Maria was great to work with. We had 4 generations of women (6 of us) staying here and it worked for everyone. We’d love to go back.

The location is fantastic! Lake Michigan is just steps from the back door. It was great being able to have the bedroom windows open and here at the waves crashing on the shore. The beds were very comfortable and the back patio is a great place too hang out with friends. New Buffalo is so close and has lots of great restaurants. The hosts made themselves available quickly via text, so if we had any questions they answered them right away. The whole process was very easy. Relaxing weekend!

I stayed with my husband and my sister's family. There were 7 of us total. Check in was very easy! The hostess was very easy to get a hold of with any questions, and she always answered promptly. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep and relax. The house is very clean and there is plenty of room in the kitchen to bring lots of groceries. I couldn't really tell from the pictures, but you do have to go up many stairs to enter the house, no matter what door you use. I understand this is because the house is on the beach. The backyard is the beach! The location couldn't be better! There is also an outdoor overhead shower to rinse off your sand before heading inside. Overall, we had an amazing time and would definitely recommend to anyone!

Best vacation we have ever had!!

We loved this house, the location, the layout of the home and property on the beach, Maria is a wonderful person and kept in contact with us when needed. The home is spacious, comfortable and well maintained. Tons of beach toys, chairs and water craft to play in the lake. My family had the best time, as did my three dogs, everyone was so relaxed and happy the whole time. We booked a return visit before we left it was so wonderful.

one of our most relaxing vacations yet

We loved the location! The house is directly on the beach and just a short distance from the Indiana Dunes. The house was comfortable, spacious, and well-stocked. The owner was incredibly helpful and responsive. If we stay here again we would likely bring our own sheets or ask the owner for additional sheets as the linens are washed by the previous tenants. My entire family (my spouse, two young kids, and two dogs) enjoyed our stay and would likely rebook here in the future.

On the Beach

Our stay was exactly what we expected—it was on the beach and our dogs loved it as much as we did. I have spent more than 50 years renting cottages along Lake Michigan, but nearly all of the rentals were in South Haven Michigan. We enjoyed everything Long Beach had to offer and we definitely would return—it was an hour closer drive and quieter—very relaxing—good golf courses nearby and very reasonable green fees and the beach is pure heaven—plenty of space and many treasures to find walking along the shore.

Amazing location

This property is in an incredible location. The deck literally looks out over the lake and you can walk right off the back onto the beach. There is not a better location around the lake. The actual house was a bit outdated but very sizable and had some really cool features from the past. Overall if you’re prioritizing proximity to the beach, great views, and appreciate a home with a lot of character, you won’t find a better place. Also, Maria was delightful to communicate with. 10/10 would stay again!

Awesome location

We traveled with a group of 7 - 5 adults, 2 kids. The adults all slept in the upstairs bedrooms and the kids took the main floor bonus room. The house had plenty of space for all of us. We absolutely loved the beach even though it was incredibly windy while we were there (7-11 foot waves!), so we didn’t spend a ton of time out there. But hearing the waves from the bedrooms was the best white noise machine for sleeping. The other reviews here helped - we were prepared for stairs and a narrow driveway. Neither gave us any trouble though. The owner was very helpful and communicative! We would stay again.
