~~~~~Cottage Moe~~~~~

Come and relax in this newly built 4 bedroom, 3 full bath home. Whether bringing the family together, catching up with friends, or just getting away, this cottage is a wonderful place to be. Walk 2 blocks to downtown New Buffalo to enjoy good food, or head over to Barney’s grocery for supplies then cook your own specialities in the full kitchen or on the back patio Weber grill.

The walk along the marina is a favorite with Stray Dog right there to satisfy your appetite.

Stroll to the beach to enjoy playing in Lake Michigan or watching beautiful sunsets over the water. There are beach chairs and towels for you in the cottage. Or stay close to the cottage and relax at the private, heated community pool.

Catch up with a good book on the screened in front porch, or watch your favorite shows on the Smart TV's.

The house has a wonderful layout that allows visitors to spread out over three floors, with bedrooms and bathrooms located on every level.

The second floor has 2 bedrooms and a shower. The first bedroom has a queen bed while the second has two twin beds. There are also two portable cribs available.

On the main level, there is a bedroom with queen bed and full bath. And in the fully finished basement, there is a queen bedroom en suite.

Exactly what we were looking for

Had a wonderful stay at Cottage Moe. House was absolutely adorable and had everything we needed to be comfortable and prepare meals. Location was perfect and easy to walk to restaurants and boat dock. Would highly recommend, and Leann was lovely and easy to communicate with before, during and after our stay.

Another great stay at cottage Moe!

This was our second summer at this house and we loved it just as much as last year. The location is great and the kids love the pool and ability to walk to the beach. The house is well maintained and has a lot of great pool and beach toys in the garage.

Beautiful New Buffalo cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Leann’s cottage. The cottage is beautifully decorated, very clean, and has a well stocked kitchen. The location is perfect, and the heated pool fantastic with the kids. We were able to prepare full meals in the kitchen, walk to the beach, and swim in the pool despite some overcast days with temps in the low 70s. Communication and check in were seamless. We would highly recommend this property and would return any time we wanted a stay in beautiful New Buffalo.

Delightful weekend

Everything about our stay was perfect. Check in was easy. The neighborhood was delightful- others were friendly but mostly quiet. The pool was festive but never difficult to find a chair. Easy walk to downtown. The house was cozy, comfortable and very roomy. Front and back outdoor spaces were wonderful. Would definitely rent from here again. It was ideal!!

Exceeded Expectations!

We LOVED everything about Cottage Moe! Everything we needed for our stay was provided, and so much more. We especially loved the kitchen--so beautiful!! It provided the perfect gathering place for our extended family to spend a week together. The community pool is just a house over from this cottage, which is so convenient. We spent a lot of time there, on the front porch, at the beach, exploring downtown, and went shopping at the Michigan City outlets and Antiques on the Bluff in St. Joseph. We hope to return in the future! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Cottage!!!

Back for more of Cottage Moe

The six of us returned for the second time to Cottage Moe, and our stay was even better than last year! Knowing that the house was fully stocked for any need, we packed less. The comfort and beauty of the cottage and community was again relaxing and fun for all ages. Walking to the downtown area which has sprouted new stores and eateries, and which we took advantage of, was a pleasant surprise. For fun rainy day kid activities, we went to the nearby public library’s children’s section, and visited the Curious Kids Discovery zone museum in nearby St. Joseph. We highly recommend Cottage Moe for a vacation in New Buffalo.

We had the most wonderful stay at this charming cottage in New Buffalo! From the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. The space is beautifully decorated with the perfect mix of cozy and stylish, and every detail was thoughtfully considered.The location couldn’t be better—tucked away just enough to feel private and peaceful, but still close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. It was the perfect setting for a girls’ weekend and a special way to celebrate turning 50! We’re already talking about when we can come back. Highly recommend this little gem!

Lovely Home, Perfect Location

Cottage Moe is located within walking distance of everything you'd come to New Buffalo to do. The home is spotless and has such a wonderful, peaceful vibe. Coffee on the front porch to start the day and if you have children, they will love the pool right down the street. The host is helpful and reachable by phone if the need arises. We would definitely return to this home/area.

Very Kid-Friendly!

We stayed at Leann’s place for Memorial Day weekend. The weather was on the cooler side ,but the pool was heated and steps away from the cottage! This was an amazing perk that my family and I really enjoyed.Leann called me a day before check in and gave me other tips for young kids . We went to a great playground nearby, used her wagon to bring things to the beach and hung out in the children’s area of the library that was a block away.

Great Family Vacation

Our recent week in New Buffalo was great fun. The house was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The host, Leann, was personable and responsive. We really liked the location; a charming neighborhood in walking distance to all the town had to offer. The toddler bed and little play room were especially appreciated by our two small children.

Exceptional Home And Hosts!!

The cottage was impeccable and provided awesome spacing with the 3 baths and 3 separate floors. We traveled with our adult children: a newly wed couple took the basement, my husband and I took the main floor bed/bath, and our other 2 children each had their own. Bedroom upstairs. You are steps away from the pool and walking distance to so many places offered by New Beach. Owners are incredibly kind and will go above and beyond to answer any questions. We would definitely return!!
