Property Manager
Your team was mega-friendly, responsive, & thorough thru out the entire process of reserving, check-in, & the online form to notify for any issues or feedback was easy-to-use. One example was letting us know a loaner golf cart was on-the-way ahead of our stay. (Assuming you received the feedback from your jotform, none of our issues, required immediate attention, so I cannot vouch for how that part of the process works.)
Property
We loved this sweet beach cottage in serene coastal-style decor for our last-minute 2-couples getaway. Walking distance (1 block) from private association beach, we enjoyed a sunset, cooked-in, loved the various common areas to get both alone or together-time (sunken sunroom/tv room, large kitchen/great room, inside hot tub & large screened -in porch, outside rocking chairs, firepit, game room area in garage, too.) The golf cart is an awesome amenity. This is a great place to relax & enjoy SW MI area & I could have stayed much longer!

Property FAQs

Does the home have a golf cart?
Yes!  It does and while at the property, you are welcome to use it.  Licensed drivers are allowed to drive the cart. Please be sure to plug it back in to charge when not in use.

Where is the nearest beach and can we drive the golf cart to it?
Yes, you can drive the cart to the beach at the corner of Wildwood Rd and Lake View Ave, which is 2/10 of a mile from the property, close to the end of Royal Ave and Lake View.  There are four other beaches nearby in the neighborhood but it's hard to say which ones are open at any given time. Beach conditions change every year / season and can open or close depending on the lake.  Please ask us for current conditions, we are happy to help.

Gas Grill
There is a propane grill, we supply the propane.

Can we have an outdoor fire?
Yes, the property has a fire pit for your use.

Indoor hot tub?  For real?
Yes, there is a hot tub in the three season porch!  It is fantastic.  You will need to open a window to allow for moisture to escape when the cover is off but otherwise, you can use it like any other hot tub.

Can we drive the golf cart to downtown New Buffalo?
Unfortunately, no.  There is no connecting neighborhood road to downtown and the city of New Buffalo does not allow non street legal golf carts on the road.  The golf cart must stay in the neighborhood or you will be at risk of getting a ticket.

Coffee Maker
There is a Keurig in the kitchen.

Parking
There is parking for four cax in the driveway maximum please. No street parking is allowed on Royal Ave.
