    My husband and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary at the Soulshine Inn. Communication with the host was great. The house is adorably decorated with pictures of dogs. The bed was very comfortable. The neighborhood is so quiet. The kitchen is well equipped. We really enjoyed hanging out on the back deck and patio. It was an easy walk to New Buffalo's main street, Oinks ice cream and Just Jackie's cafe. We will definitely be back as we enjoyed this house immensely.

    This was our second stay at Soulshine inn and we enjoyed it just as much as our first. Excellent location, easy to walk to anything in New Buffalo and 15-20 minute drive to Warren Dunes or Indiana Dunes. The backyard is large and completely fenced for the dogs. House is comfortable and has everything you need for a great stay. Thanks Debra!

    This was our second time staying at this property and it was great! We just came for a quick weekend getaway and this was perfect for us. The location is great - a really easy drive from Chicago and a good New Buffalo location. We did not bring our dogs, but we love that the place is dog-friendly. The yard space is GREAT and the rest of the house is cozy, clean and comfortable. We had no issues at all and will definitely stay again! Thank you.

    I finally got to stay in this lovely cottage after admiring it online for years. I felt so welcome and everything my dog and I needed was there. So relaxing I rarely left. Enjoyed the fenced backyard; perfect for reading, knitting, eating, and enjoying some wine. My dog, Bella, and I enjoyed walking to Oink’s almost daily to get ice cream. Did a little shopping at the little stores on the way to the public beach. All in all, a fabulous stay. I highly recommend it and plan to go again!

    The property was very homey and clean! The backyard was closed in so we didnt have to worry about the dog. Very happy with this stay! The owner was very kind and responded quickly. She was very nice.

    This house was even better than I expected. Everything we needed was there. And it was so close to everything. We walked to a lot of our meals and activities. It was cozy, but we were able to have privacy by going into a closed bedroom or in the backyard. I woke up earlier than everybody else, and was able to work in the kitchen on my laptop without waking up anybody. I was worried that the loft would not be usable, but one of my kids immediately claimed it and it was perfect. The fenced in backyard was amazing. My dogs were able to enjoy their vacation too. I will definitely go back!

    Tiny place, but had everything I needed. Furnished perfectly to be comfortable, both inside and out. Location is wonderfully close to everything, walk to beach. Pretty neighborhood with mature trees, enjoyed my daily walks with my little dog. Debra was responsive to any questions I had, but I didn't have many because everything was self explanatory!
