Anna, We are glad you enjoyed your stay. Personally, I love this little cottage. And what a great spot to be able to walk to everything in town. Have a great summer and come back when warmer!
Third Coast Vacations staff

Cute cottage. We enjoyed our stay.
Jill - Posted: 11/2/2025

Great spot for a girls trip to celebrate a birthday . Never needed a car while we were there. Our boat was very nice and offered great suggestions . Definitely would go back !
Kim - Posted: 9/29/2025

Susie's Getaway from Third Coast was perfect for our New Buffalo weekend of biking, beers, and beach. The location was great, the cottage was very nice - well appointed, and really great outdoor space. We would definitely rent here again. Cheers!
Tom - Posted: 8/25/2025

Good location. A little off the beaten path but quiet. While TCV manages, the owners were behind us, and were very nice.
Elizabeth - Posted: 8/18/2025

My kiddos loved staying here! They thought having their beds upstairs was really cool. We loved how close the home is to all the shopping and restaurants! This was our first visit to New Buffalo! We already can’t wait to go back!
Halleh - Posted: 7/24/2025

Conveniently located. Nicely appointed. We enjoyed our stay.
James Thomas - Posted: 7/16/2025

We had the best time at Susie's!! So convenient to walk everywhere! We loved the deck the best, had great sun out there. Our littles thought the outdoor shower was the best after leaving the sandy beach. Very awesome hosts! The place had everything we needed the whole stay, lots of towels & a full kitchen was great! We cannot wait to come back!
Taylor - Posted: 6/9/2025

Enjoyed a great trip with our family, and was very friendly for kids.
Sarah - Posted: 5/18/2025

Loved our stay. Hope to return in the future .
Cynthia - Posted: 5/11/2025

We had a great time! The place was conveniently located - we could walk to restaurants and the beach.
Jennifer - Posted: 4/27/2025

This is a lovely house on a beautiful street. This was our second weekend there and the home is comfortable and tastefully decorated with everything that you need. The owner is gracious and the management company responsive and friendly and gives recommendations on restaurants and things to do in the area. The house is clean and smells clean when you enter the door. There was a bag of snacks waiting for us when we arrived which made us feel welcome. We love this house and will definitely be back. Thank you!
Joanne - Posted: 11/3/2024

Property was exactly as described, communication was great, and included all details we needed for a great stay. The house was charming, so clean, and walkable to everything in New Buffalo. It was such a cozy place, filled with everything we needed - from comfy beds and bathrooms stocked with towels, to the fully stocked kitchen and wonderful outdoor space.
Kendra from Spring Lake - Posted: 10/25/2024

Charming stay in New Buffalo

The house couldn’t have been better for our stay in New Buffalo! It is a quaint residence, just blocks from everything- waterfront, coffee, and restaurants. Everything about the house, and provided amenities made us feel right at home. Comfy beds, lots of towels, fully stocked kitchen, wonderful outdoor spaces, and starter supplies. The house was quiet and immaculate. If you’re in the area, you definitely need to stay here!!

Cozy, peaceful spot that was easily walkable to downtown and the beach.
Elizabeth - Posted: 9/29/2024

Lots of spider webs and spiders found in the bathroom and basement as well as backporch area Nice house and great location Location being within walking distance to town
James from Glennville - Posted: 9/27/2024

We loved staying at this home! It was a short walk downtown or to the beach. We loved having a King bed to sleep in!
The only thing I didn’t see listed is that the upstairs space does not have a door. The stairs go from the kitchen straight into the room. Not a big deal if traveling with older kids or friends. But it made getting our 3 year old to bed tough.
Other than that, this house was great!
Diana - Posted: 9/2/2024

The reservation process and communications from Third Coast Vacations were excellent.Susie's Getaway was a great spot for us and our son's family. The upstairs bedroom was perfect for a young mom and dad and two toddlers. The proximity to everything downtown was a huge plus since we could wheel the kids almost anywhere we wanted to go.The beach, Journeyman Distillery and Putting Green, Galien River County Park, New Buffalo Township playground and splash pad, Stray Dog, Beer Church, Cafe Gulistan
Larry from Fishers - Posted: 8/27/2024

Great communication from start to finish!Loved Susie's Getaway - amazing location and great space. Lots of food left from owners in the fridge which made it difficult for our own groceries, but besides that, a great stay!Outdoor shower!
Kelli from Hebron - Posted: 8/27/2024

Having stayed at Lake County Inn for years until it was sold - we were looking for some place walkable to beach and main street , some place spacious but not grandiose. From s’more sticks, to extra fans, glassware, to an iron … just ease as we beached and rode bikes. Blissful.
Decky - Posted: 8/11/2024

Jon and the staff were responsive, patient and helpful throughout the process.
House was clean and had even more than expected/advertised.
Location was the best part, as more quiet and just out of the busy area, but still only a 5-12 minute walk to restaurants, shopping, or the beach/activities.
