THE SPACE The Cape Cottage is a stunning vacation spot, providing endless opportunities to create lasting vacation memories with family and friends. Stepping inside, you’ll immediately notice the rich styling, open design, and spaciousness that say you’ve arrived at a dream-come-true, very special vacation cottage! You and your guests will find rest and relaxation come easy here, whether it’s a movie night in front of a heart-warming fire, snacking and chatting at the wraparound kitchen island, enjoying a meal in the sweet dining room, or sipping your favorite drink while gathering in the chic screened-in porch to chill out to the sights and sounds of sunset near Lake Michigan. Enjoy it all!
Both beautifully decorated bedrooms feature high-quality bedding and linens to ensure a sound sleep. The spacious primary bedroom also has vaulted ceilings, a flat-screen TV, great lighting, and lots of storage space. The second bedroom is also large, featuring custom bunk beds, a writing desk, and a nice view.

You’ll very likely cherish the primary bedroom’s fabulous ensuite bathroom, with its large tiled walk-in shower and stone-top vanity with deluxe fixtures. The second bathroom also features a tiled walk-in shower, as well as a relaxing soaker tub and dual stone-top vanities. Ooh-la-la! A top-quality stacked washer-dryer is conveniently located in the kitchen for all your laundering needs.
There’s plenty of relaxation to be had out back, including dipping into the sensational hot tub, enjoying a meal or cup of coffee on the deck’s outdoor dining table, or sitting around the fire pit with a glass of wine to look up at the stars and embrace the good life! And if you have a hankering for barbecue, there’s an excellent gas grill out there as well. Plus, kids can play and have fun on the lawn just off the deck.
Besides being near the majestic, crystalline sand beaches of Lake Michigan and some great spots to eat, drink, and be merry in Union Pier—along with its stylish boutiques and quaint antique shops—you’re also super close to the many popular restaurants, coffee shops, distinguished art galleries, and unique shops of downtown New Buffalo! Plus, you can enjoy the countless activities offered by being a stone’s throw from the region’s largest recreational harbor, including boat, jet-ski, kayak, paddleboard, and other watercraft rentals, as well as fishing expeditions and day or evening cruises. There are also many woodland, lake, and riverside parks with hiking and biking trails galore.

Highly Recommend
We had a great stay at this property. It was super clean and the pictures/description are spot on. Although it was a very hot weekend, it cooled off a just a bit for us to enjoy the hot tub for 1 night. I recommend a stay here if you’re thinking about it. The management was also very attentive. A all around!
