Cottage Like Feel

We read the reviews prior to our stay so we knew to bring our own pillows and bedding. The house has an open layout which made it feel much bigger than it actually is. It had a cottage like feel that we really enjoyed. It was a short walk to town and beach.

Loved the town of New Buffalo. Check in was easy, and communication by the agency managing was very good. The house was cute INSIDE and had all the supplies needed. However the outside needs some attention, and lacked curb appeal. Not happy with the backyard cleanliness or the mess of trashcans lining the dirt road. Location was in walking distance from down town shops however the walk to the beach was far .

Great location in NEw Buffalo

It was a bit different not as quality or high end as we normally stay. But superb location, easy to walk around to beach and shops. Property could use more curb appeal in front and backyard especially. ALso bedding not up to par either, sink clogged numerous times not sure why...? Thank you for the last minute hospitality!

Close to Whittaker street but could use improvements

While it was just a short walk to all the restaurants and shops, the property manager/owner should make some low cost improvements to make things much better for guests. Generally- the house is very uncomfortable. The bedding is terrible. We joked that it looked like it was bought at a garage sale 30 years ago. I found it gross that the sheets barely fit the bed and were so thin and clearly used hundreds of times. The pillows are thin as paper. The couch and chairs are very uncomfortable, as well. The owners should invest in bedding and new furniture (or if you’re a guest just bring your own sheets, blankets and pillows). There are nice touches like plenty of toiletries and a stocked kitchen. While the place doesn’t have much curb appeal (you’ll see when you get there), being able to walk 2 blocks and be on Whittaker is great.
