Juniper Presents: Lakefront Getaway and Outdoor Living Redefined

Enjoy stunning views of Lake Michigan from this New Buffalo 3BR/2BA vacation home. The sunroom and three walls of windows offer views of the lake and expansive backyard, plus a deck with a grill. Inside, find chic furnishings, a fireplace, and a kitchen with custom wood cabinets, a white marble island, and deck access. The master bedroom has a Queen bed and lake view, while the other two bedrooms have twin beds. Close to upscale shops, restaurants, and New Buffalo beach.

THE SPACE
Lake Michigan Getaway features a spacious open floor plan all on one level with a wall of windows looking out over the expansive backyard and Lake Michigan. The kitchen opens to the deck for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining and flows through to the living area, so everyone can enjoy each other's company and the glorious view.

Each bedroom combines comfort and style – we use only high-quality bedding and linens to ensure a good night’s sleep. All furnishings and décor are hand-selected with both aesthetic appeal and practical use in mind.

Bedroom 1: Queen bed + lake view
Bedroom 2: Two twin beds
Bedroom 3: Two twin beds

Bathroom 1: Tub only, single vanity
Bathroom 2: Walk-in shower, single vanity

An all-season sunroom has three walls of windows looking toward the lake and provides another great spot for your group to hang out, enjoy a card game, watch a movie, or just relax and watch the ever-changing colors and moods of Lake Michigan.

Recently listed by Travel + Leisure magazine as one of America’s 50 Best Places to Travel, New Buffalo – just 70 miles from Chicago – is known not only for its pristine beaches but also for its wide range of outdoor activities, fine restaurants, art galleries, vintage and antique stores, stylish boutiques, distinguished wineries, and local craft beer pubs. And the fact is, Lake Michigan Getaway is super close to all of these! Plus, you’re less than a stone’s throw from the region’s largest recreational harbor, which includes boat, jet-ski, kayak, and other watercraft rentals, as well as fishing expeditions and day or evening cruises.

There are all sorts of nearby woodland, lake, and riverside parks with hiking and biking trails galore, the most popular of which is Warren Dunes State Park, with its 2,000 acres of amazing sand dunes, gorgeous beachfront, wetland trails, and extraordinary birdwatching! You and your guests may also enjoy visiting New Buffalo’s Oselka Park, which has baseball fields, playground equipment, and tennis courts. For even more variety, nearby Union Pier has a number of other great restaurants, coffee shops, and breakfast spots. Plus, being centrally located, there are guided tours of local vineyards and award-winning breweries.

Spectacular Sunsets

The view of the lake is absolutely incredible and the sunsets were spectacular. The neighborhood is quiet but close enough to plenty of restaurants and shops. The house was clean and it was an added bonus that we could bring our dog. We had a great family weekend and would love to come back!

Many Thanks

Extremely clean, unbeatable location and view, with ample space to spread out. Pet friendly and very welcoming environment. Only minutes from down town New Buffalo, Stray Dog and all the good things. It's an ideal location for a friends getaway with plenty of sleeping spaces and communal areas for visiting and relaxing. Perfect retreat

The property is very much as pictured. The house is very nice. Things were there that you needed to enjoy your stay. We have stayed in several places in the area, this is one of the best. We hope to go back next year. A new mattress would be wonderful for the master bedroom.

Loved the view!!

My sisters and I had a great long weekend in New Buffalo. This house was perfect...clean, spacious, well equipped and the views from the living room and/or deck we're amazing. We were close enough to town to enjoy the fall fest, lunch, drinks and shopping, but spent most of our time hanging out, cooking, playing games, etc. Just a fun, relaxing weekend. Thank you again!!

Great Views

Place was clean and pictures of the home were very accurate. Right on Lake Michigan with beautiful views of the lake. However the batteries to the TV were dead. There was no dishwasher detergent to clean dishes, so had to wash by hand., and couldn't wash towels because there was no detergent for that either. Still had a great time.

Great view!

The house was very clean and had everything you would need. Even though with the Covid we were still able to enjoy ourselves. Carry out and eating at restaurants with outside seating was the trick. We had a slight problem with an electrical situation but Heather was very responsive. Would definitely return.

Great view of THE greatest lake!

We just loved the gas fireplace and used it night and day because it was the chilly month of November. When I checked in, it was 30 mph winds, and a piece of vinyl siding was hitting the screen house windows violently. Luckily, nothing broke. Be sure to check out the stray dog!

Everything was great with 2 exceptions… (1) the wall outlet at the head of the queen bed did not have a cover (bare wiring visible and potential shock hazard), and (2) the hot and cold water faucets in the 2nd bathroom (the one with just the shower) were plumbed backwards —- expected cold faucet comes out hot, and vice-versa (another potential hazard). What can you do about these issues?
