Description Description
Welcome to Modern Living at Lake Michigan, a bright and spacious retreat on a quiet road directly across from the Lake Michigan shoreline. This open-concept home sleeps up to 14 guests across the main house and a private guest house, with hardwood floors and plenty of natural light throughout.

Literally across the street is access to the private neighborhood beach, perfect for swimming on sunny days or beach combing — the access code is provided at check-in.

The central living space features towering vaulted ceilings and a bank of windows that let in the afternoon sun. The open-concept kitchen is well-equipped, and the dining area's huge harvest table has plenty of room for meals, games, or reconnecting with the people you love.

Sleeping arrangements (sleeps 14, 3.5 baths):

Primary Suite (main floor) — king bed, en-suite bathroom with soaking tub and custom shower
Bedroom 2 (upstairs) — queen bed and twin bunk beds, with a flat-screen TV
Bedroom 3 (upstairs) — queen bed, flat-screen TV
Guest House — studio-style room with a queen bed, bunk beds, a day bed, and a trundle, plus its own full bathroom, TV, and stereo

Tucked behind the living areas is a media room with cable TV and a stereo system, and just off it, a well-furnished screened porch — perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon nap. Upstairs, a lofted office with sweeping views of the living area is ready for anyone who needs to get some work done.

A large laundry room with washer and dryer is on the main floor, so sand and barbecue stains stay behind when you leave.

The garage, attached to the guest house, is stocked with beach toys for outdoor fun — including a Maui mat and paddle boards down at the beach.

After a day at the beach across the street, relax with a book on the screened porch or soak in the hot tub. As evening falls, gather around the fire pit and settle into the Adirondack chairs under the stars.

Getting here & extras:

Driveway parking for 4 vehicles
Tesla EV charger alongside the garage
Drip coffee maker and Nespresso machine in the kitchen
One small, non-shedding dog welcome ($100 fee) — sorry, no cats

Please note: the decorative fireplaces in this home are not currently available for use.

Want to explore the area? Downtown New Buffalo, Union Pier, Three Oaks, and Sawyer are all a short drive away, with dining, shopping, hiking, antiquing, and more.

We did a girls trip in mid-November. The house was great for a large group. We loved having the beach right across the street for walks and having the hot tub on the property. It was a great location close to New Buffalo and the state park. Thanks for a great trip!

We had a great stay! - maybe 150 steps or less across the street & down some stairs to a sandy Lake Michigan beach. A 10 min bike into town for food & coffee. Clean & spacious Airbnb. 1 small thing - if you have little kids make sure to tell them not to lock the bathroom door bc there’s no key to push out the lock button from the outside to unlock the door. Thankfully my 4yo figured it out how to work the lock…

Oh my gosh, it’s hard to put into words how special this place was for us. The hosts are truly the best we’ve had on Airbnb. The house is stunning and in a gorgeous setting. Access to the beach was so easy and the garage was full of beach equipment. It was clean, impeccably decorated, and super comfortable for our party of 10. Our favorite part was the fireplaces and the huge common space to hang, play games, and laugh. Thank you so much!!!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home for our girls weekend! We loved how modern and spacious it was, and especially enjoyed the hot tub. Proximity to the lake was incredible, as well. I do want to mention that the listing indicates that there is a room with two king beds, but there is not. That room has one queen. We did not have all the beds we anticipated for our group, but we were able to make it work. Would stay again!

Everyone I spoke to or intearacted with was A1 knowledgable, responsive, friendly. Would recommend you to neighbors and friends who might want to rent a house in the area.

Very responsive customer service, helpful house selection help, and clean house were the most appreciated features for our group. Great location by the beach, lovely large gathering room/kitchen with tons of natural light. Jon was super helpful in finding the right house, securing our dates, answering questions from our group, and responding to questions. Thanks Jon!

What a magnificent home! Really special. Right across for Lake Michigan, the house was spacious, tasteful, clean and modern. A touch of log cabin vibe throughout.
We loved it.
Hot tub, fire pit, screened in porch. Walk on the lake. We made good use of all of it.
A grand time! Really nice.
Union pier is right in the middle of much of greatness of the area.
So many wonderful places nearby for food, coffee, shopping and nature.
We were completely happy with our stay. The whole family enjoyed it and having our dog along made it so perfect.
Thank you for having us! Michael N.

We planned a surprise family vacation to Michigan for my father’s 70th birthday, and this Airbnb made it an unforgettable experience! From the moment we booked, the hosts were incredibly accommodating and responsive. They were always quick to address any questions or issues that came up, making us feel truly taken care of.
The house itself exceeded all our expectations. It was spacious, clean, and perfectly suited for our family’s needs. Every room was well-appointed, and the amenities provided made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Even though the weather didn't cooperate for our planned beach days, we still had a fantastic time. The house had plenty of things to doto keep everyone entertained, and the cozy atmosphere made our family bonding time even more special.
We are already talking about coming back for another family getaway. This place is a gem, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect vacation

We LOVED our stay! We hosted a graduation trip here, and were blown away by how beautiful the house is, the lovely beach, the proximity to gelato and coffee shops, the kitchen and incredible master bathroom and cozy couches. We especially enjoyed the natural fireplace -- we made fires every day although we did end up having to replenish our own wood, but it was cheap! The windows are beautiful, and we comfortably slept all 12 of us. We will definitely back next year for our first college reunion! Thank you for the stay!
