First of all, this is a new construction home, finished at the beginning of 2018. You will find many modern amenities and upgrades in kitchen, Nest thermostats that control each floor, smart TV's in the living room and family room, and of course, wifi. For the summer, weekly rentals are only available with check in and check out on Fridays. Here's the breakdown of how the house is laid out. The first thing to know is the front of the house is not on a street. It looks out to the neighborhood. So when you arrive, you will be arriving on Whidbey Lane, which is the back of the house. There is a stoned parking pad and a small cement pad in front of the garage on the back of the house where two cars can fit in tandem. Plenty of additional parking is available through out our development. Our garage is small and for storage only. When you enter the back door, you will walk in a small hallway and then the first set of rooms you will meet are the master bedroom with a king size bed and TV and then the first floor bath which has a bathtub with shower head. You then walk into the living room, kitchen, and dining combination. This is the heart of the first floor. The living is set up to circulate conversation and lounging. The kitchen is fully stocked with plates, silverware, glassware, pots, pans, and a coffee station! The kitchen island seats 3 and underneath the island by the bar stools is a power strip, perfect for charging a phone or laptop. The dining nook is in the kitchen. The hand made dining table has built in seating for 6 people (8 if you squeeze!). On the first floor as well, you have a back deck that is set up for dining and the front porch that is set up for lounging. From the front porch you can see the community pool and you look out at the neighborhood. On the second floor, when you arrive at the top of the stairs, you will find two bedrooms and one full bathroom. One bedroom has a queen size bed with a mounted TV and the other bedroom has a queen size bed with a twin size day bed with mounted TV. Both of these bedrooms share a full bathroom with a shower (no tub here). When you go to the lower level, this is one of our favorite spaces in the entire house. Here, you will find the family room. This is set up with a sectional sofa (that also has a queen, Tempurpedic pull out bed) that is set in front of our custom built wood wall (we did it ourselves with Jeff's dad leading the project!) with a mounted 65" smart TV. This is perfect for movies, naps, and watching HGTV! You will also find a pub heigh table that is perfect for eating or gaming (board games stored in the lower level bedroom closet) and a foosball table. You will also find the laundry room on the lower level behind the custom built sliding barn door. On the lower level, you will also find the bunk room. This room is perfect for kids (or adults who still think they are kids). With the playful nautical design, this room has a bunk bed that has 2 twin beds and then a twin size day bed with a pull out trundle bed underneath it. This room does not have a TV, but does have it's own bath with a tub that has a shower head. It's the largest bathroom in the house! And there you have it! That is the layout of the house!

This place was absolutely perfect: great location, cool design/decor, super clean, and stocked with everything we needed for our weekend getaway. Communication was great before, during, and after. Special thanks for all the fun, local suggestions!

This is a great property. Everything (and more) was provided for by the host. Jeff was very helpful with several questions prior to arrival. The cottage was large enough for our group of 9 adults. One concern voiced is the shower stalls were a bit slippery. Either traction slips or grab bar would help. The furniture in the basement was more comfortable and conductive for gathering our number. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. Thanks!

What a wonderful house! We couldn't have been more pleased. We have stayed in the New Buffalo area with another family every summer for the past 14 years and this has been our favorite home by far. Beautifully decorated with great hang out spots for kids, readers, game time, or cocktails. Easy access to everything New Buffalo has to offer. The house is well equipped with everything you need from the kitchen to beach. Can't recommend enough!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The communication from booking to arrival was great, the location is amazing and the rental was extremely clean. This was our first visit to New Buffalo; we loved the walkability of this rental, we could walk/scooter to the grocery store, shops, restaurants and the beach. The house was stocked with hand soap, toilet paper and all of the essentials. There were even beach chairs, a few sand toys and a wagon for use. The community pool was an added bonus for my kids who hate cold water - the pool water was quite warm making it enjoyable even on cooler days. We had a great week in New Buffalo and would definitively rent this house again if we find ourselves back in the area. Thanks for everything!

The house is beautifully decorated, modern and clean and just the perfect size for our group of 4 moms and 5 kids. Being able to walk to the downtown area for shopping and restaurants was so easy and fun. It wasn't warm enough for the pool or the beach, but I imagine a trip during the summer time is even that much better when you can take advantage of these areas too!

This is a great modern house that is well equipped and a great location. We were able to walk to almost everything in New Buffalo in 10 minutes or less. House was well stocked with paper products, trash bags, soaps, and coffee. Would definitely stay here again!

It was such a gift to stay at this beautiful property with our family. The house was just right for our three kids and the location allowed for so many options every day. The pool was beautiful and fostered a great opportunity for kids to meet neighbors and play. The walk to the beach was easy and smooth with so many pocket beaches a quick 5 minute drive when little feet needed a change of scenery. Jeff and Anthony were incredible hosts who were responsive and kind every step of the way and we will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time at this house with our family. We occupied this house as well as a house across the street, and they were so close to each other it made our large family trip a success. Perfect location with proximity to the pool and beach walk-able, as well as walkable into town. Would definitely stay again!

Spent this past weekend here with a group of friends and it was perfect! Adorably decorated, very clean and perfect location. Within walking distance of the beach, bars and restaurants. Check in process was easy and Parking for was convenient despite having more than enough cars to fit in the 2 spaces out front. Pool is Right across the street which was perfect. Only complaint is that when we booked the place months ago it appeared that the pool was in the backyard of the house and would be private when reality it is a community pool and was not. Since then the listing has changed to reflect where the pool really is. It actually worked out well though because the time we did use the pool there was nobody there. All in all it was an amazing place and would stay there again with a group in a heartbeat!

We experienced severe storms which knocked out our power. My wife and I brought our work with us, but due to no power/no internet, we were forced to vacate the property three days early. Jeff the property owner kept us on top of the power situation and when we made the decision to leave, he refunded us three days. Class act.

This was a family vacation (6 adults, 6 teens) and we had a fabulous time! The house was everything stated in the listing and more. And, it's all about location...was PERFECT.!
