Amazing Lake Views, Beach Access, Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Screened Porch & Game Room

Escape to a Luxurious Lake Michigan Retreat

Welcome to your elevated escape on the shores of Lake Michigan, where sweeping lake views and refined comfort set the stage for an unforgettable stay. Just a short walk from beach access (please note: the access directly across the street may be affected by erosion; an alternate beach is located just 2–3 blocks away), this elegant home offers the perfect blend of relaxation, style, and convenience.

Step into the heart of the home—a chef’s dream kitchen with premium appliances and an oversized island perfect for entertaining. Share meals and lake breezes in the spacious screened-in porch, or unwind with sunset cocktails on the rooftop deck overlooking the water.

Designed with gatherings in mind, the home features expansive common areas ideal for playing cards, sharing conversation, or simply listening to the calming sound of waves. Whether you're connecting over a glass of wine or enjoying quiet moments together, the layout offers both space and comfort.

After a day of exploration, indulge in the oversized outdoor hot tub (available for an additional fee), or gather around the large fire pit under the stars.

The primary suite is a serene sanctuary, complete with a bath with oversized shower and a lofted office for moments of quiet productivity. The main house includes three additional well-appointed bedrooms, while the detached guesthouse offers a private fifth bedroom, a full bath, a refrigerator and microwave, and a charming loft with two extra beds.

Downstairs, the lower level family room with lake views and entertainment for all ages—enjoy classic video games, ping-pong, board games, or a cozy movie night.

Ideally located near award-winning restaurants, wineries, breweries, boutique shopping, and casinos, this home places the best of the region within short driving distance.

Professionally cleaned and sanitized before every stay.
Maximum occupancy: 14 adults (or 16 with children); strictly enforced.

Treat yourself to the ultimate lakeside getaway—where every detail is designed for comfort, connection, and lasting memories.

It is a beautiful, very roomy and well appointed home with beautiful views of Lake Michigan. The large beach is easily accessible, only a 1 1/2 block walk. Our family of 12 people have rented other nice properties in the area and this is our favorite!

We had a wonderful stay in this fabulous house. The views are incredible. It was spacious and everyone had room to spread out. Beds were comfy. The open floor plan was great for a large group. The kitchen is very well stocked! The weather was cool but we made use of the hot tub and fire pit. There is so much to do in the area - golf, pickleball, great shops and restaurants. Hope to return some day!

Great Place To Stay!

Our family really enjoyed staying in the house for the weekend as we enjoyed the lake and the neighborhood! Plenty of sleeping arrangements and a large kitchen to cook meals in was amazing. And the view of the lake from the large living room windows was fantastic as well! The host was very nice and helped provide some recommendations for spots to check out around town. Definitely recommend.

Great stay!

House was exactly as pictured and wonderful for our big group. Lots of beds and everything was clean and well stocked. Would recommend to anyone! It was a bummer that the beach entrance two blocks from the house was closed up for us in late April, but certainly not an issue with the property itself.

Family gathering

Our family of 14 gathered to celebrate our moms 80th birthday. The house was perfect - beds for everyone and two fun legs gathering spaces that were ideal for our group. We’ve rented lots of houses and this one has the best equipped kitchen of any we’ve stayed in. The hot tub was wonderful and the location amazing for walking in the beach and a quick trip to New Buffalo! Trupti was helpful ahead of check in I would go back to this house again.

Coast-to-coast family vacation

Great home with lots of space for our family that traveled from NY to Seattle for a week on the lake! The house was well provisioned and we had good communication with the owner. 2-block walk to the beach was hard to beat and the hot tub, fire pit, and screened in porch were all put to good use. A great vacation home!

Beautiful Stay!

This was our second year in a row staying at this house. The house is great for us (three families…lots of teenagers!) Everyone had enough space and enjoyed all the amenities of the house, hot tub, ping-pong, video games and the fire pit. Views to Lake Michigan are stunning. The access to the beach is down the road over a hill but definitely worth the walk. It’s one of our favorite in Michigan! I would definitely stay again!

Just What It Says on the Tin

This place was exactly what we were after. Perfect in every way. Beach was easy enough to get to, kids had plenty of space to play, had both the balcony and the screened-in porch as sunset viewing sites… I could go on. In short, if this is the kind of lace you’re looking at, this is the place you want.

Perfect House for our College Group Reunion

This house is larger than the photos show it. The main room and basement room are very large. It's very well stocked with just about everything you could need. One of the nicest VRBO's that any of us had stayed at. The house was perfect for our reunion and added so much to our enjoyment of the weekend. Our host made check-in a breeze and happily and promptly answered my questions leading up to our trip. Didn't want to leave!

Wonderful Home

I don't think I've ever stayed at a cleaner rental property. It's a great house to have separate sleeping areas away from the gathering areas. Everything you need is included, the house is well stocked and feels like a home. Amazing view of Lake Michigan to wake up to and just steps from the beach. We would recommend this property to anyone staying in the New Buffalo area.

Perfect spot for a friend get-together!

We had an absolutely fantastic visit! The house was lovely and huge -- the perfect spot to meet up with a bunch of old friends. We enjoyed the views, the fire pit, the hot tub, and the proximity to the beach. What was especially nice was how well-stocked the property was and ready for us -- everything from firewood to cookware to towels was available, which made things so much easier. Communication from the host was very clear and timely. Truly, this was one of the best VRBO stays I've ever experienced and it made for a great experience.

4 Generation Family Vacation

Our family of 16 enjoyed staying at The Green House! We celebrated my Mom’s 80th birthday. Lots of time together as a family playing games and enjoying the nearby beach. We were able to drive my mom to the stairs so she could have an easier time getting there. The two blocks walking to the stair access was a little workout since it was hilly.

A Great Save!

We have been utilizing this weekend getaway for over 20 years, and it is a significant aspect of our annual plans. This year, we ran into a bit of a snafu and we thought that all was lost!In response to this situation, we engaged with VRBO customer service, which proved to be exceptionally effective in facilitating a rebooking. The instant confirmation provided and the constructive dialogue with the property manager regarding our specific needs and preferences were both commendable and professional. We look forward to many more years in this exceptional space.
