Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Portage

My wife and I have stayed at many vacation home rentals over the years, this one was one of the very best! First, I booked they house late afternoon on the day we wanted to arrive. Sarah responded immediately, accepted our booking and got me the access code to the property. It was all done within a few minutes! The house was beautifully decorated (my wife loved it and she is a designer!), well appointed and located very conveniently to all of the places we wanted to spend our time. We loved the hot tub, used the sauna almost every morning and our Golden Doodle loved the big fenced in back yard. Sarah and Brady are unbelievably responsive to needs too! One evening we wanted to enjoy the fire pit, but they were out of fire starters. I contacted Sarah at 7:36p, she responded at 7:37p and by 7:51 Brandy had already dropped a box of fire starters on the front porch! What?!?!?! Amazing. I HIGHLY recommend this place, we will be back!

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.

We had a wonderful stay! This was our first vacation with our 10 month old. The bed rooms were a bit tight for a pack n play but that’s my only negative about James’ beautiful place. It was clean, decorated well and we could walk EVERYWHERE! I’d recommend this place to anyone interested in staying in New Buffalo.

Staying at Matt’s Air BnB was a fantastic experience. We stayed with our two kids and another couple and the space was perfect for our group. The spacious, fenced in yard made for a great hangout space for our toddler to safely run around. The house looks exactly like the pictures and was extremely clean. We will definitely stay here again! Thank you, Matt!

We love this house! It’s an older house but very well kept! I am up working in the area and needed a place to stay on short notice! Luckily the host was very responsive and accommodating! We booked the place and moved in the same day! Wish we could have stayed longer!

This property is great -- nice quiet neighborhood close to town. It is a comfortable home that looks brand new. Ami is a great host. Very responsive and easy to communicate with. I had a medical issue come up during my short stay and was able to easily and quickly extend my stay. Everything about my stay in this Airbnb was more than perfect and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay here.

Comfortable & peaceful home right on the lake! We enjoyed the cottage for several days while visiting family nearby. It was a great place for our family of 4.

This is a second wonderful stay that I had at Diane's place. Would highly recommend to those visiting the Berrien Springs area.

We absolutely love staying here, it is our go to staycation home. Lisa is always available if we need anything. This was our second stay and we plan to come yearly. Our kiddos love the pool and love how close stores and Dairy Queen of course are in walking distance :)

This was a wonderful Airbnb. It was very clean and the decor was lovely. It was a short drive to Indiana Dunes State Park and restaurants in the area. Very convenient. We really enjoyed the heated pool and the dog friendly atmosphere. My dog loved the yard. Would 100% stay again if in the area.

This home was super cozy for my big family. Everything was clean, comfortable, and the way it is set up makes you feel right at home. This home had everything we needed. TV’s, kitchen items, recommendations, and even fun family games and activities to do. Every time I visit the area I’ll be checking to see if it’s available. 10/10

We had a lovely family reunion at St Joe’s overlook. Kitchen came with literally everything- all sorts of cooking instruments (crock pot, air fryer, toaster etc), spices/oils, and zip lock bags for leftovers. All brand new appliances and ample prep space. We got the pool heated and it was wonderful! Very large size to fit all the family kids. The hot tub was a nice save for the adults who were freezing. Beautiful views from the living room of the river with ample and comfy seating. The home was perfect for a large gathering. We appreciate Evan and Claire hosting us they were always responsive and helpful.

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!

This is our 5th year of vacationing in New Buffalo and have stayed at Missy's place on 3 of those visits! The house works beautifully for our family (7 adults and 4 kids under 6 yo) and you're never tripping over each other, which makes it so relaxing! We'll be back!!

We had an amazing stay to celebrate a milestone birthday with my extended family! The house comfortably fit 4 families and a labradoodle and was excellent for the 5 kiddos. The heated pool and hot tub were fantastic for cooler than expected temperatures Memorial Day weekend and kept the kids entertained. We opted to cook and grill at the house and had everything we needed. The house is also super close to the beautiful New Buffalo beach. We will be back!

We really enjoyed our stay at Jennifer’s house! It was clean, great location & cozy! We especially loved the automatic pool cover so we could actually relax on vacation with our little ones running around. I also loved the three separate areas outside (pool, fire pit, grassy area). The separate areas offered a nice change of scenery to break up the day without leaving the house. I also loved that it’s a spacious ranch style house, so was easy to keep eyes on the kids. Jennifer was a wonderful & accommodating host & can’t wait to get back to her house soon! Thanks for having us!

Great location—just a few minutes from Indiana Dunes National and State Parks, and very close to a convenient travel center. Michigan City is also nearby for extra exploring. The backyard was a real highlight—peaceful and beautifully set up for families to relax and spend quality time together. Highly recommend!

The house was charming and we loved the mid century modern furnishings. We slept well and easily walked to the beach with our small dogs many times! The kitchen was well-stocked, the yard was lovely, the bathroom pristine, and if you have the need, there are so many dog treats, toys and blankets! The people living in this area are friendly and warm. It felt like home and we would definitely return!

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!

My family and I had a lovely summer Indiana Dunes weekend at Jill’s place. The house was clean, cozy, and well-stocked. We loved the bikes and covered back porch. It was nice to be right on the Calumet trail, in biking distance to beaches. We took a 25 minute drive to Garwood’s and came home with a boatload of strawberries, and took a beautiful sunset dip in Lake Michigan. Thanks for the fun weekend!

I have stayed here before and loved each visit. The place is always clean and smells great. Connie is an amazing host, very helpful and pleasant.

It was nice, the host is kind, and the location is peaceful. It's like an adventure. The RV is clean, and well kept, and has the best view of the tree and horses alike. Our mastiffs went up to look at the horses and they did not spook. The horses seem tame and happy. The RV also has a nice deck, and a swing for a great view of the sunset. The bed is very comfortable and check out is flexible, communication with the host is awesome. We accidentally took the key, and the host was very understanding of it. Peaceful spot at the end of the state street. Will def come back.

Had a great time at Jesse’s cabin! Amenities were great and accommodated all our needs for our trip. Beautiful cabin in a peaceful forest surrounding.

Simply beautiful! My daughter ( 7 year old) and my goddaughter ( 5 year old) enjoyed themselves! We loved the layout, beautiful scenery, spacious rooms, the updated amenities, the spa bathtub and the outdoor patio swing is amazing! This house is somewhere you can relax and rewind, enjoy yourself and feel safe at! Angie, is the best! I recommend you stay at Angie’s beach house! You will love this house!!!!!!
