**Sunset Shores beaches have been impacted by storms and a couple years of harsh winters. We hope they will be back to normal by the time of your rental.

It was all location for us. Walking distance to everything New Buffalo has to offer. We’ve stayed in this property now 3x and will be back for more. I did come with twin 3 yr olds. Not the most safe for that ago group. Deck isn’t didn’t seem safe, peeling wood, loose railings. But over all a great house.
We can not say enough great things about Blue Fish Vacation Rentals. We had everything supplied for a perfect first night- dish soap, paper towels, toilet article supplies, etc. If we needed anything it was given attention and dealt with in a very timely fashion. This was a perfect vacation. Very clean, charming house over looking the Harbor and a view of the lake out of the front windows. We highly recommend Blue Fish Vacation Rentals.
We had a great time, the house was nice, key features are the deck overlooking the marina & the hot tub. We were mostly at the beach, only in the house at night. Not a ton of kitchen supplies to cook, bring your own spices! Showers are hot & hotter, no cold water after a hot day at the beach.
We had a great time, thank you
My wife, dogs, and I had a perfect trip to NB! The location of the home was great. Great views of the marina on one side and a good view of the lake from the other. The lot across the street provides the best lake view. Very cool to see the Chicago skyline at sunset. This trip revolved around food and nature. Over the 6 days we ate out all but 2 meals and only ate at the same place twice (Brewster's). We kayaked the Galien River and hiked the Galien River Park and NB Dunes/Beach. We took the dogs to Warren Dunes Dog Beach (via Weko Beach) multiple times. The house provided the perfect base to recharge after our longs days. We loved the amount of natural lighting for the living room and kitchen. The dogs very much appreciated the carpet in the house, which is easier on their feet after hiking. The only negative was that the beds were not to our preferred firmness level, but we still slept well overall. The Bluefish staff were tremendous at responding to inquiries and arranging add-ons that we opted for. They also provided some excellent recommendations. We would love to stay at this property again!
We had a great time at this property in New Buffalo. The location was great - just know that in order to get to the beach and downtown, you need to walk around the marina. There is no cut through. The house was very clean and well maintained. There were plenty of starter supplies like towels, shampoo, dish soup, etc. The house didn’t include basic pantry items, but the listing was very clear on what was included and what wasn’t. The hot tub was fantastic - it was extremely clean and functional! Our only note for improvement would be better lighting. There was only one lamp in the master bedroom, so lighting was low, the basement overhead light was missing a pull string to turn on, and we couldn’t find outside patio lights for the hot tub. Small minor opportunities for improvements. Overall a wonderful property, great location, clean, and affordable. We would absolutely stay here again!
The drive in to the VRBO is gorgeous, right in behind the Colorado National Monument. It may be a little remote for some, but that is what attracted us to the location. Host is very communicative! We ended up with a slight snafu and were unable to complete our stay, but would definitely book here again.
Great location and home in New Buffalo. About 20 min walk to New Buffalo beach. Good layout for everyone to entertain themselves. Nice appliances and beautiful view of the lake from the kitchen window.
Property was nice and clean. The owners were great- hot tub was broken and had it replaced before we arrive. Communication about property was great to. I’d recommend this and stay again.
We had a great experience at this rental. It was the perfect size for a girls weekend. It was walking distance to town for the Wine Festival. The kitchen wasn't as stocked with as many things as I am used to at home rentals but we made it work

1 very small bathroom on main floor. Other is down in creepy basement. Also driveway is at back of house, must go through basement and steep stairs to get inside. Hot tub had dirt and spiderwebs on it. House smelled damp and like sewage upon entering. This was probably because basement bathroom was a mess. Toilet was clogged and leaking from underneath. Tub was not draining. TV quit on last night there. Very little lighting in bedrooms. Laundry also in basement down steep stairs.
We have been to New Buffalo a few times before, and stayed in the hotel. Great low key town, just touristy enough. This time we decided to rent this house, and it was wonderful! Worked out perfect for our family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids) , plus grandma! House is Exactly as described, clean, great location in town close to everything. Walk to the beach and little shops is 15 minutes. Or it’s a 5 minute drive to the main beach if you don’t want to walk. The kids loved the hot tub, when it needed repair, it was fixed within the hour! Communication was great any time we had a question. The kids didn’t want to leave after our 5 night stay. We hope to go back again!

Weekend getaway pro/con
Pros: Overall, clean. Great location. Hot tub clean.
Cons: Bring your own pans/utensils bc they do not have everything. And the beds- two thumbs down. The beds were absolutely terrible. Two of three bedrooms beds were clearly very old and past their prime (visibly sunken in middle). Three of the four of us woke up with severe back pain the two nights we were there and had to attempt to sleep on the couches, because the bed quality was atrocious.
We had a wonderful time. It was late in the season when we could all get away so "Seasonal" stores etc were closed but we still had a great time. We did have an issue with our stove, but the maintenance guy arrived quickly and resolved the issue. Everything was clean, the beds comfortable and the hot tub was wonderful. One concern was with the unfinished basement: mainly the stairs. They are very steep and not a lot of room for your whole foot. We would love to come back and have already discussed using this same rental again. Thank you

New Buffalo July 2019
The town is great. Plenty to do. The Inside of the house in general was okay. Check in was easy. There is no beach/lake access. You have to walk quite a distance to get there. The outside was not clean. Area around the hot tub is dirty. Hot tub was dirty. The pictures do not match this at all. Inside was clean. When we arrived we had to change light bulbs in quite a few rooms. We had to take bulbs from unused areas and switch to kitchen/bedrooms. Basement is unfinished. It did have a couch and ping pong table. You have to park in the back of house. Basement doors were very hard to shut/ lock. We had a door knob come off in our hands. The deck on the back of the house is UNSAFE. It appears to be rotten. I wouldn't let anyone near the edge. The knobs on the gas stove are broken. The kitchen is not stocked very well at all. If you are planning on cooking, bring your own utensils/pans. Overall for the price charged for this location I was very disappointed. I would look for a different property.
