    The house was very nice and comfortable for our annual family reunion of 9 adults and 2 kids. We all had fun with the pool floats and enjoyed the beautiful gardens and nice patio furniture. Chris and Susie were very attentive to our needs at all times. (Only recommendation is that since bedrooms have no closets, empty armoires or chests with empty drawers should be made available for guests. We would also recommend better quality pillows and linens.) Overall, we recommend this beautiful home!

    Really enjoyed our stay. Owners were in communication with us to make sure we had what we needed. Pool was warm and grandkids loved it. Lots of room in the house to play games on rainy days.

    This is a great property for a large group of friends. The two wings of bedrooms gives a nice sense of privacy from the main living and kitchen space. Great amenities including large pool and fire pit area. The woods right next door makes the property feel nice as secluded so you can have relaxing getaway. The host is very communicative and provides a helpful guide prior to your stay. Would definitely choose to stay here again!

    We couldn't be happier with this property. We had 11 people in our party - 6 adults and 5 kids. This location had a lot of room for a big family like ours. We enjoyed the pool and back yard, and how close we were to downtown and everything in the New Buffalo area. Had a great vacation and highly recommend!

    This property is perfect for a large family gathering. There is plenty of space for everyone and the large, warm pool keeps everyone happy and busy for a large part of each day. Wonderful time.

    This is such a great location. Loved the fall colors, and the indoor fireplace. Great gathering rooms. Wish it was warm enough to take advantage of the pool, and outdoor seating.
