We brought our baby and toddler and were out of the house most of our stay but after the kids went to bed, the living room was a great space to relax and play games and far enough from the rooms so the kids couldn’t hear us. We drove to the beach which was still very close. ##### Tammy G. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Josie R.

Jun 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home with great location, but not suitable for little kids We loved the proximity to downtown New Buffalo (very short walk), and the inside and outside spaces were beautiful; however, the lack of storage (no bedroom closets) and small bedrooms detracted from our stay and we found the home to not be suitable for families with small children. 1) Small children require a lot of stuff from home. The lack of storage in the bedrooms meant all of our things were everywhere, but mostly in the dining room. 2) Our toddler still sleeps in a crib, or pack'nplay when travelling. The size of the bedrooms were almost too small to safely fit the pack'nplay. ##### Marcy S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Craig H. Aug 12, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Pretty good - not clean upon arrival Overall the stay was pretty good, however the home was not cleaned upon our arrival. We spent the first few hours on the phone trying to figure that mess out. Not a great way to start your vacation - trying to figure out if you’ll have clean bedding to sleep in. Other than that, the place was pretty good. The location is really great. it’s a bit of a hike to the beach, but really close to the shops and restaurants. If you have little ones like us, I would not expect to walk to the beach. We rented a golf cart from a local place and it made the trip awesome. The home was in good shape outside of the cleaning fiasco. They provide basic kitchen utensils, the living area was enjoyable, bathroom and kitchens are fairly well finished and felt overall clean (after the cleaners left). The living room area has lots of nice daylight and was enjoyable. The streaming device was a bit clunky, super slow and really only had Netflix. If you plan to stream any tv I recommend bringing your own setup. WiFi was fast enough to stream otherwise. We enjoyed the outside area during the evening. Overall the cottage was really enjoyable, but the lack of cleaning upon arrival was a bit of a fiasco. Caused a lot of unnecessary stress. I like the house itself a lot, but I’d really need to think hard about renting again due to the cleaning issue. ##### Craig H.
