About this property

Luxury vacation cottage - walk to downtown New Buffalo, beach, and heated pool!

Welcome to our vacation home! Newly built in December 2019, Riverview Cottage is located in the heart of downtown New Buffalo in a quiet and quaint neighborhood. Our house is on a deadend street overlooking the Galien River marsh with great sunset views. You can walk to everything - just a few blocks from restaurants (Stray Dog, Redamaks, etc), the local grocery store, shops, and public beach. Close to the casino, wineries, and breweries of Harbor Country. Spend the day at the beach or hang out at our private heated association pool just steps from the house. This house is beautifully decorated and designed for large group vacations. Our house has a fully stocked gourmet kitchen with a dining table that seats 12 comfortably, a living room with large TV and gas fireplace, a fun and relaxing basement which includes a large TV, card table, and gorgeous custom wet bar. Relax with a cocktail on the covered front porch or chill out with a book on the enclosed back patio. Our backyard includes an outdoor dining table, a gas grill, a fire pit, and an outdoor shower. Everything you would need to build wonderful memories with friends and family!

*We kindly ask no reservation requests for bachelor or bachelorette parties.

Perfect weekend getaway

We had a group of 11 adults traveling to New Buffalo for a weekend without the kids. This house was perfect! It had plenty of space and was exceptionally clean. We really loved that we could walk everywhere we wanted to go! We didn’t have any issues at all, and would love to stay again. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend!

We loved this house! Not only is the style of the house impeccable and adorable, but it was also nicely equipped from dishes to linens to shampoo and conditioner. The location cannot be beat! We love walking to the beach, downtown and pool. The street is quiet and safe (you don’t really notice the trains coming through and when you do, they are gone so quickly. The owner is super responsive and kind. The community pool could use some cleaning and a few updated chairs but this house is perfect and we had the best time!

Perfect for our group celebrating a 50th birthday. Friends from all over the country came together to reunite in this beautifully appointed home. Check out instructions were clear and easy. Checkin was also simple. It rained for a lot of the weekend, but our group of 9 still felt like we had ample space to gather for meals and spread out for relaxation time. Every single person commented that the beds were uncommonly comfortable for a rental. We loved hanging out in the kitchen and the dining area. It rained too much to use the fire pit and back patio area, but it looked like it would be great in better weather. It fit our needs perfectly. We loved parking the cars and never moving those until we left. We walked everywhere! Great spot.

Wonderful property

We had a wonderful family vacation. This home was beautiful and they thought of all details to make it a wonderful stay. There were so many additional items we weren’t expecting such as the bathrooms being stocked with some toiletries and each shower even had hair products and body wash. I would suggestion you mention items you have available to take to the beach such as wagons and chairs so that people don’t have to try to fit those items in their cars to travel. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was the accessibility of pool. The listing implied a“private” pool for a small neighborhood of homes but we found the pool was always full with large families and tons of kids. There weren’t any chairs even available to use and we really could only use it late around 9pm until closing when those families were doing bedtime. Thank you for sharing this wonderful vacation home.

Great House in a Great Town

This was our third time to New Buffalo and first time in this house. Dan and Jewel were excellent hosts - friendly, quick to reply, and provided everything we needed for our stay. The house is wonderfully decorated, has quality fixtures, kitchen supplies, and thoughtful details. The walkability is unbeatable. I couldn't recommend this home and neighborhood more. We will be back!

We live and work near Chicago and love that New Buffalo is just a little over an hour away as a quick getaway.

Why they chose this property

We are so close to everything. We love how we can leave the car at home and go for a walk or bike ride to the beach, grab a bite to eat, pick up something at the grocery store - so convenient!
