Adorable cottage! It’s a perfect place to stay and enjoy the area.

The cottage was comfy, cozy, and clean! A great place to stay for a small family to enjoy Lake Michigan and Warren Dunes! Also close to an Amtrak stop in New Buffalo. Hop on the train for a day trip into Chicago.

Lovely stay

We loved our stay. The cottage was very tidy and clean. The skylights make the space so light and airy. We found the steep, twisty stairs to the loft to be a bit challenging. For that reason only, we probably won’t stay in this exact cottage again. The private beach was amazing. It was well maintained, peaceful and beautiful. We hope to return to the neighborhood again.

Delightful cottage in beautiful neighborhood

We had a wonderful time at the cottage, which was perfect for our little family. Clean and well-kept inside, we had all the amenities we could have needed (including some we didn't necessarily expect, like fast internet!). We loved walking to the private beach each day, and going to the gelato shop (Izzy's Bean + Gelato) up the street each night. Check in and out was painless, and everything was clearly explained. We had a great visit and hope to be back in future summers!

Nice quiet rental property

The location was lovely. Nice landscaping. The only recommendation I would make would be to a railing at the curved portion of the stairs to the 2nd floor. The steps there are pie-shaped and if you have to go downstairs in the middle of the night, it could be a bit of a hazard. Otherwise, Clearly the community has plenty of restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, etc. for the vacation crowd. Be advised though, it does get crowded on the weekend.

This is a neat, small cottage. We had the opportunity to look at it before we rented so we knew what we were getting. Good for 2 adults and a toddler. Beds are on second level up a steep almost ladder-like stairwell with no barrier at the top so absolutely would not be safe without a pack and play or similar or a makeshift barrier. Carpet and couch need very deep cleaning or replacement and furniture on back patio would be nice. Overall we were pleased with it but seeing it before was helpful. We also never used the kitchen.

Relaxing Sister Getaway

My sister and I escaped for a few days while my niece was at camp. Our expectations were exceeded and then some. Location was perfect. Cottage was spotless and so cozy. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and quick to answer any questions and help in any way. We are already planning when we want to return.

Little disappointing.

There wasn't the number 5 on cottage. Didn't know and 3 of us searching for the correct cottage. Microwave not working, slow drain in bathroom sink. Terrible sitting chairs outside. More for decoration than comfort. Bed pillows need to be replaced. Other than that it was ok

Relaxing getaway

The cottage is a short walk to the beach and a short walk to town. It’s a great location. The cottage is cozy and has everything u need for a comfortable getaway. My family of 4 stayed at the cottage. We have a 2 yr old and 4 yr old. It was the perfect set up for a small family. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay at the cottage.
