Spacious New Buffalo 4BR/4BA vacation home w/ OMG Lake MI views! Just a few blks from downtown shops, cafes + beach! 3 floors, 2 kitchens, lush social areas + lg backyard. Kitchen on main floor opens to DR w/ fireplace, leading to huge screened porch. 3 well-appointed BRs + 2 full BAs on this level.

On the main floor, Sunset Dream’s large kitchen opens to a dining area with a fireplace and sliding doors lead out to the large front porch with fantastic Lake Michigan views.

Upstairs you'll find an incredible great room with a beautiful stone fireplace, a wet bar, TV, gorgeous lake views, and the entire space is graced by overhead skylights. The second-story screen porch is where you'll want to spend most of your time - whether watching the boats go by on a blue-sky day or soaking up the sunset while unwinding with a glass of wine. There's a TV, plenty of comfy seating, and three walls of windows that can be opened wide to enjoy the summer breeze.

The finished lower level of Sunset Dream includes a game room with a TV, a full bath, a second "party" kitchen that's perfect for late-night snacks, and a large laundry room. Head outside to the backyard where you’ll find a gas grill and lots of room for fun and games.

Each bedroom is a perfect combo of comfort and style – we use only high-quality bedding and linens, to ensure a good night’s sleep, plus all the furnishings and décor are hand-selected with aesthetic appeal and practical use in mind.

The large master suite includes a bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and walk-in shower. There are 3 additional full bathrooms in the home, ensuring morning and evening routines stay on schedule.

Recently listed by Travel + Leisure magazine as one of America’s 50 Best Places to Travel, New Buffalo - just 70 miles from Chicago - is not just known for its pristine beaches, but also its wide range of outdoor activities, fine restaurants and art galleries, vintage and antique stores, stylish boutiques, distinguished wineries and local craft beer pubs. And the fact is, Harbor Haven is super-close to all of these! Plus, you’re less than a stone’s throw from the region’s largest recreational harbor – which includes boat, jet-ski, kayak and other watercraft rentals, as well as fishing expeditions and day or evening cruises.

There are all sorts of nearby woodland, lake and riverside parks with hiking and biking trails galore, the most popular of which is Warren Dunes State Park, with its 2,000 acres of amazing sand dunes, gorgeous beachfront and wetland trails, as well as its extraordinary birdwatching! You and your guests might relish visiting New Buffalo’s Oselka Park, which has baseball fields, playground equipment and tennis courts. And for even more variety, nearby Union Pier also has a number of other great restaurants, coffee shops and breakfast spots.

Excellent property!
Stayed here for a super-fun girls weekend with friends. We basically lived in the sunroom! The house is very spacious with lots of room for everyone. Gorgeous location and a wonderful place to relax. We've been doing group trips since 2016 and this is one of the best places we've ever stayed. Would definitely stay again!

Great View But..
2 small issues and 1 big issue. The Freezer handle came off, I think it was broken before, we just didnt know it. The other small issue was not too relevant for us, but the lower kitchen upper cabinet door fell off as I opened it, 2 screws barely held it on, the other 4 were already off laying on the shelf. So the big issue was the master bed, 1st night uncomfortable, we didn't care too much we were tired. 2nd night we noticed we kinda fell towards the middle, just thought it was a old mattress. But the 3rd day I looked under the bed. The 2 wood slats were broken in half. Not sure if the last renter did it or noticed it or reported it. We'd be happy to stay there again IF the bed was fixed or replaced and also a new mattress. Other then those 3 issues, we loved the view from upstairs. The kitchen was well stocked. Bathrooms were clean.

Our Gang! fun times
The Property, House, Location and surrounding neighbors were great. We had no problem at all enjoying ourselves regardless of some of the things that came up. I sent a message to Our Hostess so she can be aware of those things. NO sense in disrespecting her or the owners for the little issues we ran in to. the house is great. Lots of room.

First Michigan trip
This was a great rental for 4 adults and 4 kids. We loved all the space upstairs for the kids to go hang out upstairs, or the adults to hang out when all the kids were in bed. We enjoyed the private beach we could walk to on the street and enjoy the sunsets. We enjoyed being a 30 minute drive to other towns with breweries and good restaurants.

Nice location, great 3 season space, could be a little cleaner
There are many positives about the place. Nice location, lovely view of the lake and a great 2nd floor and 3 season porch. There are a few considerations though. The house was not very clean and many things are cheaply done or just a bit off. The wine fridge was broken, the freezer door handle on the refrigerator was also broken (and never repaired while we were there despite notifying the manager) and there was no gas for the grill. A little more care would have been appreciated, but overall it we had a fine stay.

New Buffalo Vacation
This home is great for a large group and Heather was an excellent property manager. Unfortunately, we needed her far more than we had hoped to, so we were very thankful that she did her job well. During the week we dealt with a wasp nest on the front porch, and also 4 out of our 7 days staying, we had HVAC repairs being done as the air conditioning in the upper half of the house was not working properly. Heather kept in touch continuously throughout the process, which was awesome. However that did not change the fact that we had to deal with the inconvenience of the problem. One of the repairmen mentioned that they had been out the previous month for the same issue, so the owner of the home clearly needs to step up in this. If you are a large group, you will love the ample space and the location of this home. We walked into town daily and loved the close access to the beach! And the street was nice and quiet- a great place for the grandkids to ride their bikes!

Decent rental
The property is nice but it felt a bit dated. It was clean for the most part, although did see quite a few crumbs inside the oven door handle. Several of the blinds are broken & could not get one of the lights to come on upstairs. Messaged the owner about the lights & never heard back from her. Also, there are train tracks somewhere near the property & you can hear the train jthroughout the day.

Uncomfortable
The space was very uncomfortable for 8 adults and 3 children. There aren’t any living spaces with enough comfortable seating for more than 6 people. The beds and pillows were also uncomfortable to us, so no one slept well. The cabinets were very disorganized and dirty. Everything felt dingy and dirty to use/sit on/sleep in. Some areas had a very musty odor. I think it would be fine for a group of friends going to party for a weekend, but it didn’t work out well for my family who likes to cook and relax around the house. Given the rate and the cleaning fee, it should have been a much nicer stay. Pros: Beautiful view! Easy communication Location
