Close to Warren Dunes State Park. Went to New Buffalo for restaurants. Firepit out back did not have firewood and chairs were upside down upon arrival. The home was newly renovated and everything was comfortable. They want you to wash sheets and leave in the dryer upon departure. Take out trash and throw all the towels near laundry machine.

The location of this property was on a lovely and quiet road. We especially loved seeing the deer in the backyard. We were literally 3 minutes away from Warren Dunes State Park ( our primary destination). We brought our dog and the house was perfectly suited for pets. The decor was tasteful and contemporary. The bedrooms were beautifully appointed and the bathrooms felt like a spa. There were many books, games and puzzles, as well as 50 inch tv. I would HIGHLY recommend this property for anyone who is looking for a relaxing atmosphere surrounded by adorable little towns.

House was recently remodeled and very clean. Street is very quiet overall. Traffic from nearby highway is audible but not visible. House would benefit from some beach accessories: umbrella, chairs, cooler, towels. Also some more towel hooks in the bathrooms would be helpful.

Stayed with family - including 3 year old and older small dog. Super convenient to Warren Dunes State Park (beaches and hiking trails) - there is a dog beach a the far end of the parking lots. Easy access to coffee shop (loved Infusco), restaurants (loved Susan's) and Sawyer Garden Home center - which has terrific fruit veggies and all your grocery and most beach needs. On a quiet low traffic cul-de-sac too. Very comfortable stay!

Great location, so easy to get everywhere. House and layout - super cute, comfortable and clean, hostess was great to work with. This is certainly not a big deal or a dealbreaker, but a little suggestion - big plant and stand behind the sofa could be moved out to provide more space. Would recommend for sure!! Thank you

Finally, a well-stacked vacation rental!

This property was very comfortable and had all the fixings of home--extra blankets, pillows, plenty of dishes, great coffee making supplies and more. The homey-ness was much appreciated after a long day of playing at the beach.

Comfortable and inviting

We had a great time here, and we appreciated and admired the attention to detail in design and furnishings--it was excellent. Carla has created a relaxing and inviting space! I also liked that the home book was provided to help enhance our stay, and was not a list of "do nots". Great location with easy access to all the local towns and Warren Dunes beach. Highly recommend.

Rehabbed house a short drive to Warren Dunes

The house is recently refurbished with quality finishes and very well equipped. The location is ok. A very short drive to Warren Dunes (small entry fee) that has a huge main beach and a great dog beach to the north where you can get some space if willing to walk., plus nice hiking. The back yard has woods that back onto I-94 freeway, which is heard but not seen. With an old concrete pad that lacks privacy, it just wasn’t a very inviting space to hang out.
