Sep 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Adorable home, close to the beach The property was great, it had everything we needed, very clean and close to restaurants. It's also a short walk to the beach, which is beautiful. Blue Fish Vacations, Erika and Jason were great to work with and always responded to my emails right away. This was a great find. ##### Kelly H. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda L. May 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute and clean Perfect property and location for a Michigan getaway. Home was very clean, and was especially impressed with the cleanliness of screened in porch- no spider webs or debris of any sort :) ##### Amanda L. Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret W., Indianapolis, Indiana Sep 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for Book Club Retreat We really enjoyed our stay at "Off the Beaten Path." It was clean, comfortable, light & bright, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed to make brunch (pots & pans, and little extras like S'mores ingredients). Walking distance to Lake Michigan, and close to lots of good restaurants and about 30 min to Tabor Hill and Round Barn Wineries. Our only suggestion is to update the photos of the bedrooms to reflect the current configuration of beds, but we made it work and really enjoyed our stay! We were there at the end of Sept with beautiful fall weather, and it would be awesome in the summer too. Would definitely come back again and highly recommend this property! ##### Margaret W.

This house is beautiful and in a great location. Great for our family trip. Kitchen is well stocked with the necessities (except coffee). Only downside is the late 5pm checkin time. ##### Jill L. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine D. Jun 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome house for long weekend with the family This house was a perfect spot for a long weekend stay with grandparents, adult kids and grandkids. The house was beautiful and really clean. It has lots of nice hang spots for the family including an awesome screened-in porch. My favorite room was the adorable children's room perfect for my 3 grandsons. The house is also located very close to a beautiful Lake Michigan beach. Perfect getaway house for the family. ##### Christine D. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura P.

I wanted an open concept home that was clean and modern and each couple had their own bedrooms at night. We’d definitely refer this home to anyone wanting to travel to New Buffalo/Union Pier area! ##### Kathleen M. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael G.

We enjoyed every corner of the place (the screened in porch, the fire pit, the bbq, the beautiful indoors, the board games, etc.) the location was great! The kitchen was pretty stocked with spices which was nice for cooking.. we had a great time! ##### Adria N. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa B. Aug 15, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home, great location We've stayed at many VRBO properties in Harbor Country over the decades, and this one was by far the nicest (also the most $$, but I guess that goes together). Beautifully appointed, a 7 minute walk to the beach or the little business district, great kitchen and AC. The collection of board games and puzzles came in handy for the gloomy or humid days. ##### Lisa B.
