Vacation rentals with lake access in Michiana Shores

We loved how close this cute little house was to the downtown area. It was clean and tidy, beds were firm, but ok. It has a nice big yard, with plenty of outdoor seating. Would recommend.

We rented this property for our family with two little children. Although a bit small , it worked well for our needs. Lovely area, with a short pleasant walk to Lake Michigan beaches. We used to live in this neighborhood so it was very nice to revisit the area.

This house was so beautiful and was a perfect place to spend a girl’s weekend! Would recommend over and over again and would definitely stay here again! Mike was also very quick at responding (even on the weekend) and when something wasn’t right he was very quick it fix it.

We had a wonderful stay at Heather & Lydia’s home! Their customer service is top-notch! The space was peaceful, beautifully and thoughtfully designed, and surrounded by nature—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The location is ideal, just minutes from biking and hiking trails, and close to New Buffalo, MI—one of our family’s favorite spots for great restaurants. It was Mother’s Day weekend, and I truly appreciated the welcome gift—a heartfelt and personal touch. Their clear, concise instructions made check-in and check-out easy and stress-free. Every detail made our stay feel special. We loved every minute and can’t wait to return. Wishing them many more happy guests!

Brent's place is really nice as described. very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. the home itself is cozy, clean and well decorated. the treehouse is good but not warm enough for cold months. finally the wifi is good in the house but no signal on basement bedrooms. All in all we had a wonderful time in Michiana and we will look to back again in summer months.

We all walked in and said WOW! It was beautiful and had so much charm. We have stayed in many rentals and this was by far the cleanest and most organized. We traveled with 3 couples and there was plenty of room to gather and socialize and room to just chill by yourself. The boardwalk made for a wonderful morning walk. Brittany was a terrific host answering any questions I had and providing a list of thing to do in the area. Certainly worth the money! We would definitely stay again. Rita

Great stay, beautiful home ! Amazing host, very much recommended ! Wish I could’ve stayed longer

We had a girl’s getaway weekend at this lake house . We needed a place to simply relax and unwind, and Polly’s place provided just that. It is in a very peaceful location. We all enjoyed having our coffee/tea in the sunroom in the morning while listening to the birds. A couple of questions came up during our stay, and Polly and Jack were responsive and helpful. Polly even came over to be our photographer when we had an idea for some pictures on the staircase. She was a great sport. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the home was spotless. The fire-pit area and access to firewood was great . If there was any suggestion I could share, it would be to devise an easier way to utilize the paddle boat. We didn’t attempt it, because we don’t believe we could have got it in and out of the lake easily. Other than that, we had a great weekend. I would definitely recommend the property to anyone looking for a peaceful place to stay.

I was looking for a cozy spot with a jacuzzi for a weekend celebration for my husband’s birthday and it was so much more than that. Carlo was super helpful with recommendations and quick to respond back. Such a great area to walk around and explore. We loved staying here and are looking to book later again this year!

Really nice, remodeled home! We loved our stay, the beds were comfy, and we loved relaxing in the living room after our jobs were done. We ate at the bar that was next to the home. AMAZING FOODIES‼️🫶 HIGHLY recommend this place, and look forward to staying again in the future.

Lisa was an amazing host! The location was great right on the lake and the space had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying with her!

My two girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights and it has the most beautiful view of Lake Michigan! We arrived later in the evening and were so thankful that our host left us with restaurant menus and recommendations, we loved the pizza. Place was clean and very well stocked with linens and even coffee and some water in the fridge. The beach is a steep staircase away (it was a bit rough, and my legs hurt, but it’s worth the trek). Also thank you sooo much for letting us use your beach chairs! We stayed on the beach from sunrise to sunset. It was magical and the views are to die for! Our only complaint would be the lack of communication that the host would be staying on site during the same weekend as us. The listing brags about a private beach and yet at one point the hosts wife appeared 15-20 feet sitting directly behind us reading a book. We felt like teenagers being watched by our mother. We decided to take a walk, and when we came back she was gone, but it was weird.

Irene and Martin were very helpful and friendly. The place was cute and clean. It was exactly what I needed, peace and relaxation. The beach was a three minute walk and it wasn’t crowded. We brought firewood and outside by the fire pit there’s nice furniture and it feels like you’re in a little woodland area with nobody around.

Great place to stay for my family of 3! Very cute, spacious, clean, welcoming and so close to downtown and everything you need! Claire was very responsive and easy to talk to/ask questions. Highly recommend :)

This unit was very comfortable and very spacious. It really has everything you need - towels galore, pool and beach amenities (chairs,noodles,cooler,etc), cleaning products, extra mirrors, cords, kitchen stuff - even those toiletries that you might have forgotten. The beds and bedding were very comfortable which is always lovely on a vacation! Patricia was so easy to work with and always answered my questions quickly. The pool was nicely heated and clean. The beach was mostly deserted so I felt like it was my private beach! The walkway down to the beach is paved and renting the golf cart made it even more of an adventure to go up and down that hill! I plan to be back!

Erica's listing was great. I would stay there again for sure. amazing communication and since the place was not booked before or after she gave us early check in/late check out if we wanted to utilize it.

Really beautiful place in a great location. The pictures don’t really do it justice. Very relaxing and peaceful. Short walk to the beach. Great restaurants close by. It was perfect for a weekend getaway. Highly recommend.

We LOVED this place! Quiet, safe and friendly neighborhood which made it wonderful to relax and take several walks. Even a Nice short leisurely walk to the beach. We used the campfire pit a lot, since it was a cooler weekend than normal. The place was super clean, cute, cozy and comfy! Close to everything we wanted to do restaurants, ice cream, bike rides, etc. Peter was a wonderful host and even had a bottle of wine for us in the refrigerator to help celebrate our anniversary! We will be back!!

Easy check-in and felt right at home. Jennifer was always responsive to messages. She also gave great suggestions for food etc. The house is located perfectly for walking to the beach, market, restaurants, coffee. It is also a great location for quick travels to New Buffalo, Three Oaks, Michigan City and more. We will visit again for sure!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The hosts were incredibly hospitable and flexible, making everything so easy and welcoming from start to finish. This home holds a lot of sentimental value for our family — we spent many years vacationing in this area growing up — and it meant so much to be able to return to the area and create new memories in such a beautiful, well-kept space. We couldn’t be more grateful and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, meaningful getaway.

We had a great time staying at Amy's place! It is the perfect size for a couple. It feels very cozy and like you are actually staying at someone's home vs. the sterile Airbnbs that are owned by corporate entities these days. The property is as described. It is very private, yet close to everything! I would recommend staying here if you're in the area.

The place was perfect for our Mothers Day girls weekend! The check in was easy. Upon opening the front door, pleasantly surprised by the well decorated/furnished house, looks just like the pictures! The house was convenient for us to spend a day in St Joe and a day on the wine trail.

Third stay in two weeks. Everything about the cottage and grounds is perfect and I am already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend!

Lovely home, many well thought out perks like fans in upstairs rooms and beach toys for kids! Info said it was an easy short walk to beach so I spent a whole lot more than I usually would. With children it would not be pleasant and is really not a short walk (and is on a semi busy road) & beach is down a whole lot of steps. BUT there are parking spaces so it was fine. Within the house, the steps are fairly steep at parts & there are 2?big ones going into house &!these were hard for my 70 year old mom w knee issues. So if person reading reviews is one of those people, this might not be THE place. That being said, it is very short walk to community pool & host is very responsive & house is beautiful! My mom mostly stayed within first floor including an awesome bed/bath on ground floor. There are games (although I didn’t love the Ouija board 🫣😂) . This would be a great place for multiple family / friends to split cost ;) Its very beautiful & community pool & hot tub are great!
