A quaint cozy cottage

We enjoyed our stay. We loved the enclosed porch and the beautiful surrounding garden. The sleeping quarters was tight but were able to navigate through it. We would recommend it for any couple looking for a quick get away. It is a little tight for families, especially with the sleeping arrangements and one bathroom. Other than that... Absolutely amazing.

Lovely little house!

My husband and I were in the area for a weekend getaway. The house is immaculately kept. Very cozy little home. The garden and back porch are lovely-a great place to drink morning coffee or read. Located minutes from everything. Excellent communication from the host. I'd give more than 5 stars if i could! Highly recommend this place.

Better than pictured

Jan was a pleasure to meet. We were surprised to learn the property is right on the highway, but it wasn't too noisy... we slept hard and good. The house and gardens are even better than pictured. I'm allergic to everything (animals, mold, dust mites, etc.) and had zero issues with this house which is hard to find. Would definitely go back and recommend.

Cute little house

We enjoyed our stay, but will probably not stay there again. We thought it was 5 blocks to the lake & not even close. Also, we didn't feel comfortable using the 2 bicycles on the the 4 lane busy highway the house was on. Nice but probably wouldn't go back.

Long weekend

The cottage is just as described in listing. We enjoyed the beautiful garden area and the screen room. Very clean, comfy bed. Everything you need in the kitchen. We were initially concerned with how close the train tracks were, but the train passes very quickly, not loud enough to wake us. Location is great, close to many restaurants and wineries. Host met us on arrival to assure we knew amenities and answer questions. Would highly recommend, hope to visit again when it is warmer to enjoy beaches.

Perfect Girls' Weekend

My best friend and I got away for our first ever girls' weekend. This house seemed perfect online, with the individual spaces, screened porch, fireplace, etc. It didn't disappoint! The fireplace was all ready for us when we arrived after dark, with a friendly note from the host to welcome us. We enjoyed long hours by the fire sipping wine and talking, and quiet days reading on the screened porch. We were just minutes away from everything we wanted to do in New Buffalo, but out in the peace and quiet, surrounded by stunning trees and beautiful gardens. Thank you for a much-needed escape, and for your warm welcome! You made it a wonderful weekend.

Just for me…

Purple clematis, wisteria, English ivy, a weeping willow, screened in porch, small fountain and paved walks. Everything I love. We had to leave early due to illness. We will consider insurance next time. Our first time booking through Verbo. Signing up was confusing and a little frustrating going through the website to email hosts. I understand the need for privacy but the process was time consuming.
