Terrific rental!

We loved this clean and comfortable house that was an easy walk into Downtown New Buffalo. My husband and 3 kids stayed here at the end of June. There are 3 bedrooms so everyone had space and 2 bathrooms (key for a family of 5). Our little nephew came for a visit and loved the trampoline. We would definitely rent it again.

Super relaxing

Property is as represented. Very clean and comfortable. Location in New Buffalo is excellent; very safe and quiet neighborhood. Very walkable to the main part of town (small and quaint town but has everything you need). Best ice cream store in town just several short blocks away. Recommend bringing or getting bikes to get around town and to beach area as parking is very limited and biking would be much more accessible/easy way to get around.

Sweet family home

A group of five friends were celebrating a 45th birthday and this family home was perfectly situated for us. A short easy walk to everything, and a comfy living room for us all to sit and chill in the evening. We didn’t use the fire pit but the host had firewood for us if we wanted to, and there was a trampoline for anyone visiting with kids. The host was great and easy to connect with. Overall we had a lovely time, thank you!!

Friends Reunion

Charlie's place was perfect for the annual getaway two friends and I do. Communication with him was easy and fast. The place was clean, beds were comfy and we had all we needed for an enjoyable weekend. Though others have mentioned the place is within walking distance of downtown and maybe the beach, even though I am a walker, I would say it's a distance as well as not having sidewalks. This in no way was a deterrent to our enjoyment of the location. It is within 5 min driving distance to just about anywhere and is located in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful backyard with a nice sitting area on the patio. Were I to visit New Buffalo again, an enjoyable small town with good restaurants, I would definitely stay at Charlie's place again.

Really enjoyed our stay. Beds were great. Kitchen well stocked. Excellent giant TVs in living room and basement with any apps or channels you want. Basement had lots of games and stuff to keep kids happy, but the back yard trampoline was the biggest hit! Would stay here again.

The backyard makes this place even more of a delight. Lots of shade and back deck that’s great for meals. You’ll probably want to drive to the beach. Hosts were very prompt & helpful with any questions we had.

Great Little Place to Stay In New Buffalo.

Nice house in a quiet neighborhood in NB that is close to everything. Nice big yard and deck to relax on. Lots of things in walking distance, if its not blazin hot and you're ambitious. House had most everything you would need and lots of space for up to 6. Great value!
