Pool, Private HotTub, FirePit, BunkRoom Escape to our charming vacation home nestled in the heart of an old growth forest, just moments from downtown New buffalo. Seamlessly blending privacy with proximity, the cottage at new buffalo offers the best of both worlds. We are set far enough away from Route 12 to hear any traffic. Our home is your own personal oasis. Gather around the crackling fire pit with circular seating to enjoy s’mores under the starlit sky. Or, on another side of the property, a circle of adirondack chairs allows friends and family to watch you show off your cooking skills on the gas barbecue grill. On yet another side of the house, your private hot tub awaits for day time fun or relaxing, evening cocktails under the stars. (Enjoy peace of mind knowing our hot tub cleaning service visits just before you check-in.) Inside, the Cottage at New Buffalo welcomes you with an open-concept design, seamlessly connecting the kitchen, living area and dining table. On the first floor, there’s one comfortable bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a twin-sized bed and a second bedroom, “the Bunk Room,” with a twin/full bunk bed and a twin/twin bunk bed. A full bathroom with shower/tub separates the two bedrooms. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a vaulted ceiling with fan and a charming two-person, screened-in balcony. The primary bathroom features a large jacuzzi tub, a spacious walk in shower, and dual sinks and vanities, ensuring relaxation at every turn. The deck wraps around three sides of the home and is screened-in on two sides. One screened-in side faces the gas grill and its round seating area. The other screened side overlooks the "front" of the property and the fire pit. The open-air side of the deck features a round dining table, lounge chairs for sunning and the hot tub. Our community pool is a very short stroll from our doorstep, but far enough from pool noise. Dive into crystal-clear waters and soak up the sun on the poolside lounge chairs. For those seeking a bit of friendly competition, we've got you covered with our bags setup. Gather your family and friends for a spirited game of cornhole while you master the grill. We set it up “behind” the house, a fourth seating area, with an ice bucket. On the deck, you’ll find 4 tailgate chairs (with over-the-shoulder carrying straps) for you to take to the beach. Don't pack beach towels. We have them for you in the Bunk Room. New Buffalo's beautiful beach is at the end of Whitaker Road and has public parking. Don’t forget the other nearby amazing Lake Michigan beaches! The Indiana Dunes are just 30 minutes away and absolutely worth a visit. We're happy to provide most of the common necessities including toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher soap, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, aluminum foil, garbage bags and some condiments. Need recommendations or have questions? Text (or call) us any time during your stay and we're happy to help. In advance, we’ll text you a list of “Things We Love,” to help you make plans. With the perfect blend of privacy and local adventure, the Cottage at New Buffalo promises a summer (or winter!) getaway filled with endless fun and relaxation. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the Cottage at New Buffalo. We hope to host you soon. \*We book exclusively through VRBO.\* ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Fenced private pool - Heated pool - Hot tub - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - On a lake - On a river ### Things to do - Bicycles - Boat - Golf - Heated pool - Kayak - Optional golf privileges - Snow sports gear - Tennis - Water park - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Sledding nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycles - Garden ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/56000000/55520000/55510300/55510222/8d0e246d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### September weekends still available!
