National Park Nature Lover's Paradise
This location was clean, quiet and comfortable. Perfect spot for enjoying the Dunes, hiking and birdwatching. I own a non-Tesla electric vehicle and there was a reliable set of chargers (6) at the Meijer store 5 miles away.

Steps to Beach & Starbucks! Private Yard, Firepit!
This is our second stay in this home. Quaint, clean, and in the heart of New Buffalo. We loved that our dog could join us! Plenty of towels, linens, cleaning supplies, and amenities that made our stay comfortable. I highly recommend!

Lakefront House, Pontoon, Deck, Fire Pit & More!
I rented Leah's home for my son's. They love to fish and Leah's home was the perfect place. They enjoyed the pontoon boat and sitting around the bonfire. The house was clean and kitchen equipped with everything needed for their weekend of grilling. Leah was a perfect host. Thank you, Michelle

Lake House Retreat with a Pool
Absolutely beautiful home that embodies relaxation and peace. We were able to comfortably gather as a family. The beds and linens are great quality!! Mike is a very responsive host, and has put in the time, and attention to detail to curate a space that is absolutely perfect for an intimate gathering of loved ones. It's impossible to list just how amazing of a stay we had. Our only regret was not booking it for longer.

DuneHouse Miller Beach - 1.5 blocks to beach
Beautiful place to stay. Layed out great! The most dog frendly place i have stayed at. Loved the little dog shower after a long day at the beach great place to get them all cleaned up. Then relax in the great couches. Would stay there again!

Barn & Beach New Buffalo / Union Pier
A great place for our families to gather (from Michigan, Illinois and Iowa). The house perfectly met our needs.

5 Bedroom Luxury Home In Heart of Beachwalk Resort
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

"SERENITY COTTAGE" Picturesque lake front w/3 bdr!
This is the second time we stayed at Serenity Cottage, Lake Of The Woods It is an ideal location for us because we have family in Bremen, Bourbon, and Plymouth. The setting is beautiful. We love the big open family area. The kitchen is lovely and we usually cook most of our meals so it is stocked well enough to do this. The owner lives next-door and checked in to make sure everything was OK. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely studio near the beach! (and heated floors!)
We stayed at Ariel and Gabby's place several times and we always had a great experience! Their place is very welcoming and comfortable. The neighborhood is beautiful and peaceful, and the hosts are very nice and helpful. We hope to be back soon.

Charming, Sunny Apartment with Backyard Garden
We really enjoyed our stay and Susan was a wonderful host!!!

The Lakefront Lookout (2BR)
We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated how responsive and accommodating Stephanie was! The view is beautiful and the surrounding area was great. Being right above a coffee shop was also extremely convenient.

Lincoln Pk-parking-wifi-King bd-crib-kid friendly
The apartment was very clean and comfortable and it was great that they had amenities for a baby as we stayed here with our daughter and baby grandson. This apartment is in a great location in Lincoln Park. Buena North Deli is a short walk away as well as other markets. Cedar Palace Lebanese restaurant is just across the street (great food and great service) with other nice restaurants just a short walk away. Armitage station was walkable and we used the train everyday to get around in Chicago. Michael, the host, provided great instructions and recommendations for the area. He was very responsive made sure we had what we needed. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Chicago.

420 at Cheltenham 4BR
I will definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Chicago. The host communicated very well and was very welcoming! This place was very clean spacious, and the beds were very comfortable! Thank you for Hosting us!

Executive Apartment on Lake Michigan with parking
Man this place was awesome! It was so relaxing and peaceful. Everything was the way it was described. Definitely coming back!

Cute 2 BR 10 Minutes to Downtown Chicago Sleeps 6
We had a pleasant stay! The space is small but thoughtfully arranged and very cozy, perfect for a short trip. Everything was clean and with a fresh, welcoming feel. The location is excellent: close to downtown, Chinatown, Navy Pier, and most of the key attractions you’d want to see on a first visit to Chicago. What stood out most was the host’s attentiveness—always quick to respond and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, which made the experience even smoother. Just a heads-up: the building has fairly thin walls, so some noise from neighboring units can be noticeable. Free street parking was surprisingly easy to find, which was a huge plus. Overall, a great spot with a responsive host and very convenient location.

Andersonville Living
We loved this cute, Craftman-style apartment. It was so homey and well arranged, nicely furnished, and beautifully decorated that we seriously wanted to move in! The owners were very thoughtful about providing what visitors will need. (They even provided a spare umbrella!) Everything was exactly as described, and communication was friendly and prompt. The only issue we had was trying to find on-street parking. We had to park several blocks away and, sadly, our car was stolen from that parking spot. Otherwise, it was a lovely neighborhood and a convenient location. Despite the parking problems, I would stay there again.

Lake Michigan Getaway near the Beach
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.

The Pines Cottage on Birchwood
We love this place. We’ve now been three times and are already planning our next time. The cottage has everything you need and is cozy and relaxing. Perfect for a lovely few days away from the hub bub of everyday. Meta Rose is proactive and responsive. We’ll be coming back again and again. 💕

B's Retreat: Hot Tub & 10-min walk to Beach!
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!

Harbor Country Michigan Hide-Away
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.

Bright Designer Warren Dunes Maple St Beach House
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.

Designer Cottage Relax Beach Pool & Spa—Windjammer
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!

DKM Cottage - 15 minute walk to Lake Michigan
What a beautiful location! Loved all the trees, beautiful yard to play games, super big fire pit, deck and grill was spotless! The inside was nice and spacious for the size. Great kitchen and bathrooms. The basement was large! We had an incredible time. Would come back for a longer vacation!

The Wildwood Cottage, private lake access
Great place to stay. Christine is a really good host. The house was clean, and the back yard is great. The only thing is that the access to the beach is a bit challenging than described. But, overall, we had a great expereince at Christine's place.
