We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect — close to downtown New Buffalo and Union Pier, with easy access to restaurants, shops, and everything we wanted to do. We loved the private beach area and the water was beautiful. Beach access 3 was a little farther than we expected, so we ended up driving and parking each time we went, but it was definitely worth it.The house was a great fit for our family of five, including three teenagers. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. We also loved that the home was pet friendly! This was our first vacation with our dog, and the fenced-in yard made it so easy and enjoyable. (She’s a small, no-shed dog and felt right at home.)We enjoyed the screened-in porch — it was a great spot to relax. It could use a good power wash, but it didn’t stop us from using and enjoying the space.Overall, we had a great family vacation and would definitely recommend this home to others looking for a comfortable, pet-friendly stay near the lake! Also, the owner, Tina, was very responsive when we contacted her.
