Great Fall Getaway
We had a wonderful fall getaway with our elderly parents at this house! It was located near many restaurants and close to the town. The house was well equipped with spices, toiletry supplies, paper towels, trash bags and other essentials. Brittany was very easy to contact when we had a question and replied quickly. The house was adorable and the hot tub lovely. We would rent this house again in the future.

Perfect stay at a wonderful New Buffalo home!
We had a great weekend stay with friends! While we only needed two of the bedrooms, the third room with trundle twins would make it a great family stay as well and we will definitely rebook on our next visit to New Buffalo. Brittany was a great host and extremely helpful and responsive. The home was darling and everything you could need was there...even down to extra toiletries. The back deck and hot tub area is very private and spacious too. We loved our stay!

Friends Reunion
This is our second stay at this property though now owned by a different person. The house is beautiful. The living room seating is fantastic for three ladies to sit and catch up and talk and talk and talk. Beds are comfy. Everything you need is supplied in the kitchen. A great game table, likely meant for eating breakfast, is immediately off the kitchen. Hot tub is a huge plus as is the wonderful outdoor seating. All is clean. We walked to Ghost Isle Brewey, a good restaurant with lots of choices. You are very close to Galien River preserve, a beautiful place to walk though temporarily closed due to storm damage. Within minutes drive to the Staymaker restaurant in Three Oaks. Try to take in a show at the Acorn theater if you go. New Buffalo has a beautiful beach, perfect for catching the sunset. Very easy check in and great communication with the owner. I would stay here every time I visit New Buffalo.

Great place and close to everything!
We had a great time at this place with the fam! The backyard had everything we needed for a great time. Fire pit, couch, table and a hot tub. We spent a lot of time back there. The location was perfect right by a good brewery and redamaks and a quick drive to the beach or Main Street. Brittany was very nice responsive and even let us extend our stay when we were having such a good time and wanted to stay another day. I would Definitely recommend this place!

Traditions To Continue
My boyfriend’s Family has been coming to new Buffalo since the 80s. We decided to continue through addition and join his family with our own space. The home was absolutely adorable! The owner of the property was great with communication and takes extreme pride in the rental. We felt so comfortable and cozy. Great location! And got the best night sleep every night! Can’t wait to return to continue the tradition next year.

Nice Getaway
I thought the house was very nice and appreciated the welcome board and bottle of wine that the host left. I was hoping it was a little more walkable to town. It wasn't far, but location wasn't as convenient to town and beach as other houses I've stayed at. I found the host to be very accommodating and was quick to respond to any questions I had. That was very much appreciated. Although we didn't use, I thought the S'mores tin with all the ingredients was a very cute and thoughtful touch. The towel selection was not the best, but this may be a Vrbo issue, and not reflection of host. Some seem very well worn and should be replaced. However, I will say that there was plenty of laundry supplies and I was able to do a load during my stay. I would definitely consider staying here again.

This is a great place to stay! The house was clean, well-stocked, and had plenty of space for five adults and a 1-year-old. Brittany was super nice and quick to respond when I had questions. The house is very close to all kinds of restaurants and breweries and is a short drive away from the beach. We would definitely stay there again.

Amazing stay in the heart of New Buffalo!
We love the tiny blue house in New Buffalo! Just outside of downtown but still walking distance to most things! In fact, I take my morning walks to the beach and back. We are a family of six and the house suits us perfectly. It's extremely clean and tidy. We all love the massive walk-in master bedroom shower. The adorable backyard is great for evening BBQs and s'mores. We tend to avoid the restaurants on Fridays and Saturdays and just stay at the house those evenings and grill. The location is great because you're so close to other neighboring towns. We like to go over to St. Joseph, South Haven and others. There are so many things to do in the area. Whether it's a beach day, picking blueberries, mini golf, there's a lot to do. Brittany is such an amazing host. She made sure that we had everything we needed. Our kids range from 5-15. We've been staying in this house since the kids were 2-12. My 8 year old said this trip "this feels like it's our summer home". We will be coming back year after year!

Beautiful home! Would stay again!
Perfect place to stay for a girls trip! The hot tub, patio table and fire pit were a plus. Walking distance to downtown and the beach- I’d recommend taking the neighborhood streets, there’s no sidewalk on Buffalo until Redamak’s. Bring extra mirrors if you’re staying with all girls!

This is the 3rd year we’ve rented this house and it is perfect! It has everything you need to feel at home. The location is close to Lake Michigan, good food and good shopping. There’s even a casino or two. We rent in February for an annual girls weekend getaway. We enjoy the hot tub while catching up with each other and relaxing from the routines of our lives. Brittany is a great host. Very communicative, and easy going with requests from renters. We will definitely be back again next year! Thanks Brittany for another memorable weekend!!!
