Stayed Jan 15, 2026The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. We were traveling during a snow storm and she kept us up to date on everything and since the space was available, she allowed for an earlier check in and later check out. This is my second stay here and we are already talking about a third! Fantastic!

Stayed Dec 22, 2025We had a very relaxing stay at Its a Dog’s Life. We appreciated the coziness of the home, the functional BBQ,the fire tables/pits with extra propane tanks available and the wood burning fire place. The house was well stocked with all the essentials. Our dog Miss Molly Mae felt very relaxed and at home. We would recommend this property to our friends and would definitely book another stay.

Stayed Oct 10, 2025We had such a relaxing weekend at “It’s a Dogs Life.” Warm fireplace, well equipped kitchen, cozy screened in porch and great location surrounded by the trees. We loved it so much that we went house hunting to find our woodsy oasis! Pam thanks for being so easy to reach! Will definitely stay here again!

Stayed Jul 12, 2025It's a Dog's Life was truly a pleasure to stay at! So comfy and so cute! Our dog, Sadie, had a blast in the totally fenced backyard. Visiting nearby Cherry Beach was wonderful, and our favorite place to have breakfast or lunch was at Viola in Three Oaks. Absolutely recommend for a relaxing vacation. The owner, Pam, was absolutely lovely to work with and very helpful!

Stayed Oct 3, 2024This place is perfect for pets! It has lots of outdoor seating so everyone could sit outside. We especially enjoyed the large fire pit where we roasted marshmallows. Showers are a bit small.

Stayed Sep 27, 2024FYI. Tried to replace 2 of the backyard lights but didn’t have the right bulbs. Made it hard to see the dogs out back when it got dark. Other than that, we loved the home and would come back.

Stayed Aug 3, 2024This house was perfect for my family of 6 plus a dog. House is in great shape in a private location just a short drive from beaches and dowtown New Buffalo. The house is very dog friendly with a large fenced in back yard. The backyard is fun to hang out at. The host was easy to work with. We will definitely be back in the future.

Stayed Jul 27, 2024Our adult children and their dog loved our stay here. The back yard was great for the dog and a fire. We loved the back porch! Lots of amenities. Southwest Michigan is the best!

Stayed Jul 7, 2024Our family stayed with 2 dogs. Dogs had the best time in the yard (and so did we). Unfortunately we got rained out the first 3 days so it was a big plus having the screened in porch. Great location between New Buffalo and all the neighboring towns further north. Easy drive to many restaurants, breweries, wineries, casino, parks and the beach.
