Friends vacation

Families with kids staying for the weekend. Everyone was comfortable and it had great proximity to the beach. The only drawback is the layout of the living room furniture. There's not a huge sectional/sitting area for everyone to be at the same time, but we made it work and would still stay here again in the future.

My 2 sisters and I take a week every year, this is our 2nd year staying at Cardinal House. We were very comfortable. With 3 full baths, we had our own space. If you are looking for a 4 bedroom 3 bath home don't hesitate to choose Cardinal House. Always clean, prompt communication from Jonina and easy check in.

June get away

We stayed here last year. Everything was excellent. We find the home very comfortable and roomy. We enjoyed the hot tub and firepit. We did some grilling as well. The Cardinal properly felt private while being close to other properties. Several activities we wanted to do were within walking distance or a short drive. We hope to return next year.

Beautiful, relaxing and peaceful!

We had a beautiful stay at the Cardinal! The house was incredibly spacious - everyone in our family had their own room, which made it very comfortable. All rooms were updated, very clean and the hot tub was a wonderful bonus, perfect for relaxing in the evenings, and added that extra touch of luxury. The location was super convenient - close to the beach, winery, grocery store and everything we needed - yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and quiet. It truly felt like a perfect getaway. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Michigan Getaway

The property was just like it was described. It was in a great and easy to get to location. We are familiar with New Buffalo and the stores in that area so this property was a great fit for us. We had great weather and we were able to enjoy the area beaches. The weather was idea for us to enjoy the hot tub at night. The house had everything that we needed.

About the host

Hosted by Jonina

Host profile image
I grew up in rural Maryland and now I’m in rural Michigan. I guess I’m just a small town girl.

Union Pier is paradise!

Why they chose this property

We have been visiting Union Pier for over a decade as renters. It’s so relaxing and there is so much to do. Hang out on the beach during the summer, ride bikes through the cornfields, kayak or hack up the golf course.

Doing nothing at all is always an optional too!

What makes this property unique

When I walked into Cardinal for the first time I was immediately struck by the high quality of the hardwood floors and furniture. I soon found out that the previous owner was a professional woodworker who applied his craftsmanship to his home.

In fact, if you stay here you will notice a rectangular building at the end of the lot that served as his workshop!
