A cozy Retreat

I needed to escape next door construction and loved this cozy yellow cottage in the woods. The location is walkable to the beach and local eateries and a tiny convenience store, plus the weekend farmers market. A perfect blend of beach vacation, hiking excursions, neighborhood strolls to friendly restaurants and a great anchor for day trips. The property staff was responsive and communicative.I worked remotely with no internet issues and loved how peaceful, safe, and family friendly this neighborhood is.

The house was adorable and a perfect location do check out all that the area has to offer. Short and easy walk to the beach, and the property manager was responsive via both text and phone call with a few small issues & questions we had.

A great house with a great location!

We had a wonderful time here and the bedroom bunk beds worked out perfectly for our two kids. We enjoyed the big couch and all of the outdoor seating. You can walk to shops and the beach!

Cute house close to beach

The house was very nice, walking distance to the beach. St. Joseph is about 20mins away with lots of shops and cafes. Silver beach is there also and a lighthouse. We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Wonderful Little Cottage Minutes from the Beach!

We booked this property for a wedding weekend and it did not disappoint! Walking distance from the beach and a cute bakery. Plus, just down the highway from downtown New Buffalo! Property was clean, cozy, and we loved the screened in porch at night! The property management was incredibly communicative, helpful, and easy to get a hold of for checking in. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect home for a perfect life event

We had such a special time at Harbor Haven Cottage. It was perfect for this grandma, her son & daughter-in-law & newly adopted baby boy. Because of state adoption rules we had to stay in Michigan until we got the okay from the lawyers. The cottage was very clean & had very comfortable living areas. Having a washer/dryer & a dishwasher really helped. We loved the fact that new parents could walk to a cute market, bakery & the beach to get a little exercise & enjoy the area. We are so grateful for the management company staff! They were so supportive and helpful. Positive feedback all around!!!!

Cute cottage, great location!

The pictures don't do the property justice - it's cuter in person. Nice short walk to the beach, and there's a coffee shop with pastries within walking distance, too. The backyard with deck is really nice and the property has great internet (2 of us used wifi for work video calls). I'd recommend this cottage to friends or stay here again.
