You couldn’t ask for a sweeter spot for your southwest Michigan getaway than this cozy two-bedroom cottage in New Buffalo. This 1200-square-foot home lives large, with an airy main floor, a huge enclosed sunroom, deck, and extra sleeping space upstairs in the loft. In the warmer months, grab a book and spend the morning in the sunroom. That hammock strung between two trees, just past the above-ground pool, is another likely candidate for whiling the morning away. When you get hungry, make breakfast in the well-equipped, full kitchen, and then grab one of the benches at the kitchen table to dine together.

When you decide to venture out, you’re about two miles to the New Buffalo Public Beach and only about a mile and a half to downtown New Buffalo, with its many unique shops, bars, and restaurants. Hiking and cross country ski trails are right across the street, with more only a block or so north. In the evening, screaming-fast internet will help you stream your favorite shows on the wall-mounted smart TV in the living room. Or, head out and visit one of the breweries Michigan is so well-known for, with several within 10 miles. Even better, grab your beverage of choice and head back outside to one of the two firepits to watch as the night stars fill the sky.

Things to Know:
Streaming with guest accounts
Above-ground pool from Memorial Day until right after Labor Day
Central AC plus window unit in the loft

Cozy and Inviting
This home was very cozy and inviting. I stayed in the enclosed porch pretty much during my stay. Spacious back yard with a pool for summer use. 2 fire pits for families to enjoy or even just one person such as myself. Minutes from downtown where there is a lot to do to keep yourself entertained while in the area. A perfect location and a home away from home. Thank you.

Love the area
House was acceptable and as pictured. They weren’t kidding when they said low ceilings on second floor. Just remember to duck! Note 2nd bedroom is also upstairs and low ceilings.

Adorable!
We were so pleasantly surprised with this little cottage. A couple things to note if you are interested in booking. As others have said, the upstairs has a low ceiling. Not a problem for me at 5’6” but I still had to duck getting around the bed upstairs. They have an extra A/C unit for the upstairs but when we arrived it had not been turned on so it took a day to cool it off. No fans were at the cottage so I called Vacasa & the guy on duty brought 2 over. I had to put them together myself but it’s a small price to pay for comfort. But the big surprise is that back porch. It is PERFECT!!! You feel like you are in an old cabin by the lake. The doors to go to the pool seem like they are about to fall off so hopefully the property owner will address that before next season because you truly do live on the porch and out in & by the pool! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

No heater in pool water was too cold for swimming
Who in the Midwest would rent a house with a pool and no heater we couldn’t use the pool because the water was cold first thing that happened was I got a splinter from the railing going into the property The furniture was very uncomfortable in the main living room you sink in the sleeping sofa very uncomfortable chair arm was broken furniture needs to be updated to better than garage sale rejects none of the lights in the living room worked Kitchen supplies are also garage sale items could be updated No shampoo or soap for showers and ran out of toilet paper and garbage bags day 2 called for more and was told no We also ran out of dishwasher pod’s If someone is staying for a full week with 8 people they need more supplies they shouldn’t have to go buy this stuff We have rented a lot of vacation spots and this one needs a lot of work to get up to par
