10 mins walk to town & train

Comfy & cozy home away from home is this three bedroom, two and a half bath house with a large yard for adults to chill and the kids to play. Enjoy the large fire pit at night while roasting marshmallows for the kids or just relaxing after a great day at the beach! The home has it all: central air, forced gas heat, washer/dryer, dishwasher, high speed WIFI, YouTube TV. The fully stocked kitchen allows for all your cooking needs or grill a steak on the Weber Genesis gas bbq. Home is located mere steps from the Marina, beach, shops, ice cream and restaurants. Walk to the famous Bentwood and Stray Dog restaurants as well as Oink's ice cream. Located downtown is Barneys Market (liquor and grocery), quaint shopping and other restaurants. Did I mention downtown New Buffalo is only a 10 minute walk or 1 minute drive? Want to enjoy a night out at the local casino? There is a shuttle to the casino that picks up at the Marina Grand Hotel, which is 1/2 block away. Enjoy the public beach and park, which is just blocks away (10 -15 minute walk). With a short drive you can enjoy Redamaks (summer only), Union Pier shops, restaurants, local breweries and wineries as well as the Indiana Dunes, Warren Dunes, Three Oaks, and all other fun activities Harbor Country has to offer.

Winter fun includes Five Pines Ministries for snow tubing and skiing, which is only 45 minutes away.

Home was totally renovated in 2019. Everything in the home is new!

Welcome to New Buffalo! See you soon.

Great house!
The house was so cute and perfect for three couples. The living area was a perfect place for all of us to hang out with enough seating on the couches and at the island. It was just a 15 minute walk to all the restaurants and stores and you could even hear the water from the house! HIGHLY recommend!

Perfect house for a girls getaway
We had 2 adults and 4 teens in our group. We had a great time at Catherine's home. Plenty of space to spread out when needed or to gather together for game nights. Great location close to downtown and the beach. Well stocked kitchen and baths. Would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a great place in New Buffalo.

The Listing Doesn't Come Close to Describing How Perfect this is!
From start to finish the owner was helpful, responsive, accommodating, can't say enough. The place was adorable and had everything we needed and more! A 5- minute walk to the private beach too! Great for our group, everyone had their own space and living room and basement with games. Outdoor fire pit and great patio to enjoy. We can't wait to go back!!!

A cozy cottage in an interesting town
This cottage was clean and had many small touches that made our stay comfortable and fun. My only suggestion would be more complete instructions regarding the lights in the living room. We had a time figuring out how to turn them off. Also, attend to instructions regarding locking the door. First time, we left and the door was not locked (you need to confirm). All-in-all well laid out and comfortable. Great place.

My friends and I had a wonderful stay in New Buffalo. We fired up the grill, used the bonfire pit (which was already stocked with ample firewood), and played some outdoor games in the backyard.
