Vacation rentals with a kayak in Michigan City

This was a patch of Heaven on earth! The scenery was breath-taking! We saw eagles, swans and other wildlife. The cottage was spotless and comfortable and well stocked with amenities. David quickly responded to our questions. We had a wonderful getaway!

Beautiful and clean!! Amazing Peaceful Cozy house!!

Beautiful house in a beautiful location and close to everything we wanted to do. Our hosts are responded promptly to our questions and provided the perfect venue for our getaway. Thank You!

We were very happy to see just how perfect this home was. It was exactly how shown online. It has so many amenities to include snacks, wine, plenty of paper products, towels, bedding, and more. We felt right at home. It had modern and new appliances. The decorator did a wonderful job. We plan to return soon.

We had a very nice stay this Lake house! We were looking for a place that would be my wife and I and our 2 dogs with easy access to a clean lake that was private and still had access to some dog-friendly restaurants, parks, etc. This place perfectly covered all those needs with a great open layout family room / kitchen / dining room (not common in many moderately sized lake houses) with plenty of room to spread out and lots of windows. It was also nice to have the kayaks, SUP, and paddle boat available to use. Kyle and Kelly were great hosts and we hope to stay again!

The place was absolutely beautiful—clean, cozy, and well-designed. The location was perfect for a peaceful getaway, with the lake just a short walk away. Would definitely love to visit again!

He responded quickly and always friendly! House was beautiful!!

Jay’s home was an excellent choice for our extended family vacation. The home is set on a private lake with beautiful views and Lake Michigan is just across the Main Street. Resort amenities (basketball court, tennis/pickleball, pier fishing) and playground are all within steps of the home. We went in early April so I cannot imagine how wonderful this location is during the summer with warmer weather. The home had a wide array of kitchen amenities that we used, including a flat top grill. The beds were plentiful and comfortable. The proximity to the zoo, casino and food/drink (Zorn & Bartlett’s Fish Camp) was phenomenal. Jay was extremely helpful, responsive, kind and easy to coordinate with. I would highly recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay at “the dump”and rate this a 4.8! Photos do not do this place justice, it’s incredibly well maintained and perfectly beach themed with modern touches. The kitchen is updated and had everything we needed, including toddler friendly cups, bowls, plates (which was a bonus). Couch, kitchen chairs, pillows and beds were comfortable. Beach area is absolutely incredible, very large and there are shells which our toddler loved collecting. What would make this a 5 star: umbrella or shade structure for the beach when needed (it was super hot during our stay), deep cleaning of all cob webs under and around furniture, filters for coffee machine, dishwasher pods, laundry pods/detergent, luggage stands, hooks everywhere for clothes, bathing suits, towels, etc., filtered water brita or similar. Overall an amazing long weekend spent on the beach, we even added an additional day to our stay and it was super easy. Thank you so much; we will be back!!

Awesome house, I stayed here for a girls weekend and we just loved the space and view of the water. Tons to do in New Buffalo, and the house was so close to the main area of town.

The pictures don’t do this house justice. Beautiful views, comfortable and clean accommodations. We had everything we needed. Host was very responsive and kind. Thank you for allowing us to check in a bit early. It really helped after 3 long days of traveling.

My friends and I went for a “game retreat” weekend and it was perfect! We really enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards since you can get on the water without getting wet (since it was a little cold). There was also such a cute note welcoming us along with fresh flowers and fresh eggs! Really appreciated the personalized touch.

Seven of us (3 adults and 4 teens- ages 12-18) enjoyed our stay over Labor Day weekend! Melissa stocked the house with games (indoor and outdoor!), linens, everything you’d need in a kitchen, and even firewood for the fire pit! We were delighted to find 4 kayaks with every size life vest we could possibly need in the garage. And the kids LOVED having a bunkhouse to themselves. We spent the weekend fishing, playing games, cooking, and enjoying a private channel off the lake. It was ideal! Melissa responded incredibly quickly and was kind and thoughtful from start to finish.

Perfect home for a long weekend that included a Notre Dame football game. The home had plenty of space for two couples and the kitchen is beautifully updated. The house is exactly like the photos and even better in person. Lovely large yard, plenty of seating out by the lake, kayaks for use, a firepit; a great vacation home. Bonus on an ND football weekend: much less traffic coming from north of campus, easy drive getting in and out of campus.

Literally everything about this place was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished we had more time to enjoy the property longer. The backyard is the lake, absolutely gorgeous views 😍 From the decor to the amenities, no detail was forgotten. Very impressed with the quality of materials, finishes, and furnishings in this home. The kitchen is a dream, bedrooms are beautifully done, delightful bedding, awesome game room/bar space, and outdoor setup has everything you could possibly need. The hot tub and fire pit were crowd favorites. Extra special thank you to our wonderful hosts for the top tier welcome basket and for being so helpful and responsive. Your place helped create a truly magical weekend.

This is my second stay and it was like I walked back into the same place one year later. Everything was the same, clean and comfortable and in order. Looking forward to next year!

Liz was an absolute wonderful host! We booked this Airbnb to celebrate our mom’s birthday and mine and my husband’s anniversary and it was PERFECT! We had access to plenty of water toys and kayaks! Every night we sat in the enclosed patio and enjoyed the views. Liz even left us fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers that we used to make a beautiful garden salad! We are vegetarians so it was truly a treat! We would definitely recommend this home to any family and we look forward to renting here again!

This place was well beyond our expectations. First off the host was extremely accommodating. She accommodated my special needs for my husband’s birthday weekend. Great location as well had dinner & tasting at journeyman. So close. The cabin itself was so clean & had everything. The grounds were great & so nice to wake up to. Had coffee in the enclosed patio, took a nice walk around the resort & had such a peaceful time in the cabin. The master bedroom was so comfortable, & I’m very picky about that. This stay made me look into owning in this actual resort. My only regret is our kids are all older now, college age, that I didn’t find this place when they were younger. This is a fabulous family place. I will definitely be back, plus highly recommend this to others! Great host, clean cabin & great central location!

Sitting in a comfy recliner next to the fireplace and looking out at a tranquil snowy landscape with majestic cranes was just the relaxing break I needed!

Our stay for the bachelor party was a great time and the vibes were immaculate during our stay!

Lynette's cottage is incredible and full of history and nostalgia. Everything was absolutely perfect. From the comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, to the awesome sun porch overlooking the vintage playground and the beautiful lake. Fun and relaxation was had by all the ages of our group and we a can't wait to come for longer next season.

This property is beautiful and quite. It's a great place to get away from the hustle back home and disconnect from all the technology (although there are TVs in two of the bedrooms and good wifi if you need it). And the resturant recommendation that was about 10 minutes away was great food! I'd definitely recommend this if you need some time to just be with friends/family, play games, enjoy the lake and nature!

We enjoyed our time! Liz was very easy to communicate with and the house was a great stay for our family!
