About the host
Hosted by Heather Gradowski
I'm a local who lives where I live! My family is happy to share this beautiful vacation home with you and we hope you'll have a wonderful time enjoying the pool, hot tub, large backyard and exploring all New Buffalo has to offer!
Why they chose this property
North Star is a vacation home where you can bring your friends and family and have a great time even if you never leave the house! Whether it's a day by the pool, a soak in the hot tub, an evening under the stars making s'mores in the firepit, or lounging on the couch catching up on a great movie, there is plenty to do and plenty of space to be together. If you want to explore the area, this is a perfect home base that puts you a short walk away from downtown New Buffalo's beach, harbors, shops and restaurants. Or jump in your car to check out Michigan City, IN, or southwest Michigan's wine country, our bounty of local galleries, boutiques, breweries and restaurants, and much more!
What makes this property unique
- Heated, in-ground pool open April-October
- Hot tub open all year!
- Fenced back yard that offers lots of space and privacy
- Pet-friendly home so you can bring your best friends along too!
