Charming pet friendly Coach house . Close proximity to the beach. Perfect place for a quiet getaway.

Great place! Great location!

We had a great stay at this property! The house was very clean and very well stocked. Lots of extras including games, snacks, and beach gear. The walk to the beach is short and was the best part for us. There was plenty of firewood for the patio fireplace and we saw deer on the property daily. The only problem was the laundry was out of order which was an inconvenience and caused the need for a trip to the laundromat.

It was a perfect place for our family weekend! The house is in amazing condition and very clean with everything we needed. The communication was fantastic. The beach is very close and the neighborhood is quiet with friendly neighbors. New Buffalo is close with good restaurants and shopping. We will definitely stay here again!

Incredible home for a getaway! Close to the beach and a nice wooded neighborhood for walking. The home was spotless and very welcoming. The owners were proactive with instructions for the home along with information on surrounding restaurants and activities. Plenty of amenities in the home.. even for your little ones and furry friends.

Loved staying at Wade's Lookout
We had an excellent stay at Wade's Lookout. Property was in excellent condition and as described. Location to beach was awesome and they provided so many of the supplies we needed, it made our trip even easier. We had an amazing time there! Would love to return and would definitely recommend. 15 mins from great dining, state park with public beaches and shopping options. Only concern was owners might need to spray for bugs but it could be due to being in wooded area.

Excellent customer service and the house was great!House was great, well supplied and in excellent location to beach but we had quite a few bugs/spiders in the house. Might be good to get it sprayed. Also, wifi was pretty poor so we had to use hot spots most of the trip and TVs in bedrooms are old/slow and barely worked. Might want to upgrade them. Also, back door didn't lock off of patio.

quick getaway to the beach
We found this home and had a blast. So close to the beach, and it was a huge beach, the kids spent all day there and easy to run back to the house for a snack, etc. Thanks for the great stay.

The home is so close to the beach! 1-2 min walk and you are right at the access point. We only used one of the two homes on the property. There is a main house also which I would assume, between the two houses, would be a bunch of people. The firepit was great, there was ping pong. Recommend the home.
