    Pros-House was cute and comfortable, plenty of living spaces with two sitting rooms and a sun room, beach access was easy and private, yard was secluded and privateCons-Grill was completely shot and unusable, cookware could be upgraded, house needs a deep cleaning, most of the games were missing pieces, we found five unlocked windows and the door was wide open when we arrived

    We had a wonderful stay at the lake house—everything was clean, comfortable, and just as described.

    This is a wonderful and cozy beach house with plenty of living space! Large kitchen and living room plus TV room. The outside decks are awesome, plus a cute sunroom. Very comfortable mattresses. With just a 5 minute walk to the beach entrance, we spent most days there enjoying Lake Michigan. Lakeside is a great area with a lot to offer and this house is a great place to stay.

    We loved staying at this home in Lakeside. The living area was very spacious - two living spaces, screened in porch, and outdoor patio. It was also clean and comfortable. Our kids loved running around in the backyard and walking to the beach!

    Our family stayed here in August. The location was amazing, just a short 10 min walk to the private beach which was much larger than expected with not a lot of people. It’s also close to cute restaurants and coffee shops (Whistle Stop) and a short ride to downtown New Buffalo. The house was spacious and cottage like and perfect for our stay!

    5 minute walk to a beach with only guest access! We really enjoyed our stay. Big house with a lot of room for kids to have space. Definitely recommend!

    Two couples & 3 kids stayed for a long weekend. Loved the big backyard (especially the swing set), comfy couches and a quick walk to a beautiful beach.

    This is our favorite neighborhood in the Sawyer/St. Joe/New Buffalo area, hands down! The beach is never too busy, the walk to the beach is quick and easy, and on a whole, the neighborhood is quiet. This house was perfectly suited for our needs, with ample bedroom space for my family of five as well as my parents and our dog, a swingset in the backyard, and good living spaces. The only thing I'd change would be the sheets, as the ones on our bed were quite pilly and rough, but that's an easy fix! We would absolutely stay here again!
