We loved staying at this home. It was the perfect location for our 2 year old - right by a park and the High School where he liked to explore the track and pavilion and down the street from a very family friendly burger place! It was a 3 minute drive to downtown and the beaches, which were amazing. The pool was warm and we mainly had it to ourselves during the week! The home was well appointed and the perfect size for our family. Clean and had all the amenities we needed! Since we have a small child, it was great to have a home all on one floor. My husband and I also enjoyed the hot tub. Great stay and would definitely come back!

We stayed here with my daughters (2 & 4) and my parents and husband. House is so clean and well appointed (legit it has everything you could need!) The girls love the bunk beds and all the wooden furniture and cute decor. Pool is incredible and just steps away. A true gem in New Buffalo! We have stayed there now two years running!

We were impressed as soon as we walked through the door! Location was great and the space was perfect for us. Large kitchen, beautiful screened porch and vaulted ceiling in the living room. I loved the little touches like the twinkle lights on timers and battery operated candles on the mantal. They us feel welcomed and at home.

Amazing summer rental with kids

Amazing summer rental with kids

This house was perfect for a family trip with our kids (3.5 & 1 year old.) The house is a great size (all on one floor, which was helpful with kids.) I was amazed to see how clean the house was and well stocked with first aid kits, a full kitchen of appliances, and office supplies as well! The pool is RIGHT near the house, which was great and so convenient. It's a heated pool and you walk about 2 mins behind the house and can find it. It was cleaned daily and now crowded. We hit the pool daily and our kids loved it. The house is also right near some HS fields and a playground, so there's lots of room to wander and take long walks. So conveniently located. The owner clearly takes a lot of pride in her house. There's tons of wall hangings and decor for the "Americana" theme which my daughters also loved & the furniture is all wood and provides a fun vacation ambiance as well. If I had to say anything sub-par it's that the beds are VERY soft, so my husband had a bit of trouble sleeping. But honestly it was such a great house and we were so happy with it!

Debbie: this house is everything we expected and more! We were looking to get away from the every day hustle and bustle and get some peace and quiet and we did! The attention to every detail was amazing. Everything was so clean and close to the little downtown area. We will MOST DEFINITELY be renting again and bringing our kids next time! Thanks so much.

Managed by Other Rental Company

Managed by Other Rental Company

I was very confused after booking this place because once you book it, all communication and payment is managed by a rental company. It worked out fine and communication was good, but kind of misleading to be posted on VRBO. I was nervous to process a payment outside of VRBO if that's where I booked it. Everything was very clean and the perfect getaway, just a heads up in case anyone else has never had this happen before.

This house was great for 2 families with kids. The decor is so cute and the house is very functional. The house has everything you need for cooking, games to play, movies to watch and extra towels for the pool. The hot tub was easy to use and clean. The pool was just a short 50 step walk down the path. The kids were sad when we were packing up to leave today. We will definitely be back.

What a wonderful home - with beautiful amenities and very comfortable features. Really appreciated the details of the house and the level of cleanliness and thought given by the owner. Both adults and kids enjoyed our stay. Loved the hot tub and yard. Short walk to pool and clubhouse which are nestled in the woods. Highly recommend this property which is about a 10 min walk to town. Weko Beach was delightful! A wonderful 3 day stay for sure!

Perfect family Christmas

Perfect family Christmas

We had a perfect family Christmas at Debbie's place. She had decorated the house with a Christmas theme that made our time there in the holiday spirit. She even left us cookies and a bottle of bubbly. The hot tub was great and the fireplace cozy. Debbie was very responsive to our needs and was easy to communicate with. We had 7 people between the age of 2 and 57 and we all had a good time. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a Christmas dinner. It couldn't have been better. Thank you for your hospitality.

A Perfect Week at Second Chance Retreat!

A Perfect Week at Second Chance Retreat!

We couldn't have had a better stay last week in New Buffalo. The property is just gorgeous! Our two sons (ages 6 and 3) LOVED the triple bunk bed room. They didn't want to leave! The rest of us enjoyed the hot tub, bon fire pit, and horse shoes! We all appreciated the heated pool, as the lake was still a little chilly considering we were visiting in early June. The open concept kitchen, dining area, and living room space made the perfect gathering space for our crew. We'd love to stay again!

Absolutely beautiful house!

We loved our 4 day stay! The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious. It was stocked with everything we needed (dishes, cleaning supplies, toiletries, etc.) We felt like we were at home. The location was great- a community pool that was never crowded, across the street from a playground, and a short walk to Redamak's (our favorite!). It was a walk or short drive to the New Buffalo beach. We will definitely be back!

We could not have been happier with our stay. Check in was easy, the house was beyond comfortable and stocked with everything you need. The location was perfect. It was perfect for our girls weekend away and I am now looking forward to bringing my family and staying. The owner even took the time to leave a bottle of sangria and a hand written card welcoming us, loved everything!
