Description

Escape to Shore Thing, a stunning lakefront home with direct Lake Michigan access, panoramic views, and space for up to 12 guests. Enjoy a spacious deck with a hot tub, a luxurious primary suite, multiple living areas, and cozy bedrooms throughout — the perfect Harbor Country getaway for unforgettable lakefront moments.

Where you'll sleep: the main-level primary suite has a king bed with a private soaker tub and custom tile shower. Upstairs, three bedrooms each offer a queen bed alongside a large rec room with a Smart TV and lake views. The lower level is set up for kids or extra guests, with three twin trundle beds and a full bathroom — 5 bedrooms and 10 beds in total.

Step outside to the expansive deck, where chaise lounges and a hot tub look straight out over the water. A private staircase leads directly down to the beach, so the shoreline is always just steps away.

Shore Thing is just over a mile from downtown New Buffalo's restaurants, shops, and grocery stores, and about a 75-mile drive from Chicago via I-94 — close enough for an easy escape, far enough to feel like a true getaway.

Whether you're gathering for sunset dinners on the deck, unwinding in the rec room, or combing the shore for beach glass, Shore Thing is built for making memories with the whole group.

Booked through Third Coast Vacations, a local full-service property manager, with discounts available on beach gear and charcuterie/s'mores board delivery, plus home walkthrough videos on their YouTube channel.

We had a wonderful weekend at the lake and found the house to be charming and exactly what we were looking for. The views from the house were spectacular.
Andrea - Posted: 4/27/2026

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so glad the home was exactly what you were looking for and that you had such a wonderful weekend at the lake.
Those views really are something special, and we’re so happy you were able to enjoy them! We’d love to welcome you back again for another relaxing stay.
Third Coast Vacations staff

Great home, comfortable beds, beautiful views, lots of cozy spots to curl up with a book or a nice hot cuppa to watch the sunset! We really enjoyed our stay!
Marianne - Posted: 3/30/2026

Marianne, We love shore thing and the beach at the house. We appreciate your comments and come back again!
Third Coast Vacations staff

This property is lovely and amazing. It is right on the beach, just down some steps. There are amazing views and the host is responsive and super helpful. You can walk 20 minutes into town. There are lots of beds and bathrooms and the hot tub is great too. Perfect for a girls weekend!
Jessy - Posted: 3/8/2026

Jessy, we are thrilled you had a great girls getaway at the property. Come back again for summer and you will really get to be able to enjoy the lake. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us! Third Coast Vacations

We had a glitch with hot tub on Thanksgiving morning. Third Coast had someone out in 15 minutes and repaired unit. Incredible service.

Lovely place right on the beach! Beautiful decks, sunsets.
Shelley - Posted: 11/16/2025

Great place and location!! Being able to sit in the hot tub and look at the water is a wonderful plus!!
Heather - Posted: 11/9/2025

This was a lovely home! Perfect location. Beautiful view. We had a wonderful vacation and would absolutely book again! Thank you for everything.
Heather - Posted: 7/14/2025

Such a beautiful home in a great location on Lake Michigan. We really enjoyed our stay, and hope to return!
Michael - Posted: 6/23/2025

We highly recommend had a stay at this property, located in a convenient, private area of the lakeshore. A couple of early concerns in our stay -- needing more towels, for example, were quickly addressed. It was easy to communicate with the property managers.
A bonus to this location was the ability to park inside the garage. The stairway to the beach was sturdy and convenient, including a couple of landings with built in benches, for those who wanted to sit and enjoy the view for a while. This beautiful home has views of the lake from most of its rooms and its three terraces and two stone-paved decks. The primary suite is spacious, with a desk/work area.
The property's location, views, space, cleaniness and updated design (a blend of country French and coastal touches) made this a special place to getaway. We hope to return.

This home was the perfect get away for our family!!
