Great place!
This was a girls getaway to celebrate our 40th birthdays. The house fit our needs perfectly! It was a great location for finding things to do. We were told by someone who lives in the area to be careful at night, but had no concerns that we saw.

This was a perfect house for a small group of adults. The rooms were spacious and the house was so clean and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was great and the hot tub was perfect.

Nice spacious home for our group of 8 adults, 1 teen & 2 kids. Plenty of room, nice front and back yards (with hot tub + gazebo) & 2 covered porches. PLENTY of beds & even games & a few toys for the kids. Hosts available & quick to respond, without bothering us. We felt very welcome & had a fantastic long weekend with plenty to do in the area!

Beautiful, clean, vacation house!
My friends and I stayed for a long weekend for a bachelorette getaway! The house was perfect for it. We had plenty of rooms so that everyone had their own bed, a large kitchen to cook, open floor plan to accommodate our whole group, and an awesome backyard! We loved the hot tub! Owners were also super easy to get a hold of. 10/10 would recommend

Great Weekend
This was a great home, and the owners were so nice and helpful. We had 15 family/friends out for a 40th birthday. The open living room/kitchen/dining room made for an awesome space to gather. Then it’s proximity to the New Buffalo wineries, and a great brewery and tasting room just down the street. We had a great experience!

Family Christmas/Easter
Our family of 10 gathered here for a late Christmas/Easter celebration. The house had more than enough room for us to be comfortable. Kitchen and bathrooms well stocked, beds are comfortable, games, and the backyard is a nice area. Host answered our question quickly. Enough off street parking for four vehicles. Lots of things to do in the area for all ages. Quiet residential neighborhood.

If you are looking for a spacious and comfortable getaway for many this home is perfect. 7 bedrooms/4 baths accommodates all with parking. Plenty to do close by or just enjoy the hot tub.

Nice House
The house was really comfortable and nice for our large group. There was a slight issue with the battery of the keypad lock dying, but the hosts were prompt in responding. Aside from that, no complaints. Everything was great!
