Clean house
Older house, but clean. And that matters to us. Plenty of games, bikes, books. Smaller bedrooms, but good beds and pillows. We would consider staying here again.

Perfect!
I would definitely stay at Stones Throw the next time I visit New Buffalo. Location is close to all the shops and restaurants. Listing is accurate and the house is adorable and cozy. Everything we needed for a girls weekend. House was well stocked, very clean and owner was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to questions. We loved our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Sheilah O'Shea

Host profile image
Investor in Chicago & surrounding areas for the past 10+ years. I choose classic all American places that I personally stay and enjoy with family and friends!

Why they chose this property

How can you resist unsalted Lake Michigan! Enjoy Lake Michigan breeze - 1 block off Lake Michigan, larger lot to entertain outdoors but close enough to town to walk, bike or drive.

What makes this property unique

Great home with nice floor plan for larger family or group of friends. Backyard has ample space for socializing and activities for all ages. Large bright sunroom with plenty of privacy.
