About this property
ALL 5 STAR REVIEWS! Walk to beach, dining. Private Hot tub. Association pool!!
We are located in the heart of Union Pier and on the lake side of Red Arrow. (approximately 10 minute walk to the beach)
It is best described as a luxurious home with an emphasis on comfort as well.
The property features a main house and an additional coach house just steps from one another in our private gated courtyard. The main house has 3 bedrooms (all main level) and each bedroom has its own private bath. Two bedrooms are queens and the primary is a king.
The den/tv room in the main has a sleeper sofa as well. (full)
The kitchen is open to the great room and dining area and a chefs dream in that it has a Wolf range and two full dishwashers. You can cook a special meal and still be with your loved ones! There is a gorgeous wood burning fireplace in the dining area and the great room alike.
There is an additional wet bar area that features an ice maker and wine refrigerator.
One of our favorite spots is the screened in porch just off of the dining room that has an additional table for 8, a large flat screened tv, and two sofas flanking yet another beautiful fireplace.
Stepping outside the porch is a STUNNING courtyard with a fireplace and stone hot tub that has a waterfall feature and a pergola overhead with twinkling lights that is truly just magical at night.
Just beyond the hot tub is the charming carriage house that has another 2 bedrooms with private bathrooms. (both queens....one is main level and the other is in the "basement" but the basement bedroom has almost floor to ceiling windows on two sides and is actually a favorite room of many)
There is another sofa bed in the main living area of the coach house.
The coach house also has a sink, refrigerator, and a Keurig to add to the comfort.
The neighborhood is very sweet and pretty small with just about 20 houses. PLEASE READ>>>> the association pool is gorgeously landscaped and a special spot but we do have some restrictions...renter/guests may use the pool /poolhouse from Sunday night at 5pm-Friday at 2pm ONLY and 10 people from our home at any one time. Holidays are off limits entirely. We have an emphasis on being good neighbors and we hope that you will too. There are many private pools on our street and the pool is usually very peaceful. The poolhouse has a bathroom and also a ping pong table.
There are a few walkable restaurants and we are also very close to the new bike trail as well as a very short 5 minute stroll to the farmers market on the weekends.
We do have 3 outside security cameras in the front of the property only.
THE HIGHLIGHT on the pool is inaccurately described by VRBO and Ive reached out many times for them to correct it..its autogenerated and out of my hands ...the pool is open seasonally ONLY and NOT year round. It is heated.
PLEASE read our reviews as they tell the tale as to why you want to book now. The house is truly so special, cozy and inviting while still allowing much privacy. Send us any questions! We are happy to help!

Great house and location. Loved being able to walk to black currant bakery and the beach about 15 min. Quite unique to have bathroom for each bedroom. Kitchen amenities are plentiful and nice sitting area for visiting as cooking. Fireplace on screened porch very nice.
Absolutely perfection. House and property is stunning, perfectly luxurious, comfort and cozy as well as perfectly added extras throughout this house. All bedrooms have a bathroom, a real plus. We rented for a girls weekend great space for relaxing, easy walk to beach and lots of amenities. We hope to return next year! Great for family/friends gatherings. Lovely accommodation . Thank you for sharing this wonderful home
The house is stunning and was well-suited for our large group. The beds were comfortable; there was plenty of space to spread out and spend time together as a big group or in smaller groups. Everything was better than expected. Would definitely stay again. Amy was very easy to communicate with.
We really enjoyed this home. Having a separate building was great, hot tub was fun, and the home was stocked with everything that a person could need for a wonderful stay.
This gem is nestled in the woods a short distance from the lake. The layout is fun and functional. I had a group of 8 but it easily could have accommodated more. The host is the best communicator I have ever interacted with. She’s incredibly thoughtful and gracious. I highly recommend this stay!
We have stayed at many vacation rentals, and this property was one of the best we have encountered. It looks exactly like the pictures, was spotless, well outfitted and just an all around pleasure to be at.Communication with Amy was magnificent, she shared all kinds of tips and suggestions and responded to any questions we had right away.The neighborhood is an easy walk to the lake, a short drive into New Buffalo and is so easy to find. I truly wish we could have stayed longer and sure do hope that we can return again. Definitely 5 star worthy in all aspects!
Stones Throw was the perfect home for a summer vacation. Plenty of space for 10 adults and absolutely lovely! Would definitely recommend and hoping to make it a yearly tradition!
We had a wonderful stay here with two families (4 adults, 2 5y/o, 1 3 y/o and 1 infant). The host (Amy) was great to work with and helped make our checkin/departure a breeze. The kitchen and enclosed porch was delightful. Quick walk to an amazing beach.
Our family really enjoyed our stay here! The house was comfortable, clean, well appointed and spacious. Every bedroom had their own bathroom. The bedrooms had comfortable beds and nice linens. There were plenty of spaces to hang out, living room, den, enclosed porch and outdoor patio with furniture. Even the landscaping is done nicely. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need for food prep. The pool was located right next door.
We spent the weekend at this property for my sister‘s bachelorette party, we had 14 of us staying at the house and we were all able to sleep very comfortably. The property was clean and beautiful, an excellent place to spend the weekend! Amy was extremely responsive and answered all of our questions very quickly. The directions around the house on how to use the sound system and check in and check out process were easy to understand. We absolutely love this place and would be happy to stay here again.
We took a group of friends to Michigan to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The property was beautiful! The location was perfect - private, yet close to the beach/lake and near downtown. The host was so sweet and responsive throughout the trip. We’ll definitely be back!
Beautiful house and perfect for our group to stay for a local wedding weekend.
House is well appointed and has comfortable beds. All you could want - easy walk to beach.
We really enjoyed ourselves - with excellent communication with Amy, the home owner. Thank you!
This is our second year coming to this beautiful home and we absolutely love it. It has everything that you can wish for! Our hosts are simply incredible, Amy is wonderful! There is so much heart and care besides it’s amazing location, close walk to the beach, hot tub -put in every part of this gorgeous home by their hosts that it truly makes you feel like you belong there during your stay! We are looking forward to be back again and again to this stunning home with its outstanding hosts!!
I went stayed here with my friends for a golf weekend to celebrate my wedding and it was perfect. We had a fantastic dinner at Timothy’s, which was less than a five minute walk away. Everyone had a wonderful time and we received great communication from the host!
Had a wonderful time at an absolutely beautiful house with 14 of our closest friends. The decor was wonderfully designed and implemented. We loved sitting by the fire in the outdoor living space and catching up. Easy trip to South Bend for the ND game. Will be back again.
40th wedding celebration with Children and grand children
The home was great, 5 bedrooms and baths with each.
Lots of common areas and a back patio with an outdoor fireplace.
Close access to the homeowner association pool..
My family and I enjoyed every moment of our stay at this property. Everything exceeded expectations. We loved the outdoor space including the fireplace and hot tub. Having two houses with each bedroom having its on en suite was really nice. The layout worked well for our family gathering allowing everyone to be together but not feel crowded at all. The kitchen was fully equipped and the amenities added to our comfort. The house was immaculate and it was a quick walk to Lake Michigan Beach. Amy was a wonderful host, very helpful throughout the rental process. Communication was fantastic. We look forward to returning.
This house, along with our stay, was nothing short of amazing. It was a perfect location / house for our girls' weekend - ample space, great communal area for gathering, and beautiful backyard to relax and hang out. The house was impeccable and looked JUST like the pictures. Amy was a phenomenal host - responsive, timely, descriptive, honest, & easy to communicate with. I am thankful for such a positive experience and look forward to another stay here in the future!
Fantastic house with luxury amenities, perfectly appointed
We were so impressed with the house, location and attention to detail. The hosts are thoughtful about making sure your stay is beautiful, comfortable and enjoyable. Beds were very comfortable, linens were plentiful and amenities were just right. The kitchen was fully stocked and there were detailed instructions for things like playing music on the sound system throughout the house and enjoying the beautiful courtyard. There were even fresh flowers scattered throughout the property. We can't wait to come back and stay longer!
Beautiful location. Golf cart helped a ton. Wish we could have used the pool on Saturday as renters were not allowed to use it. There was no one there. Policy was fully disclosed but seemed odd
This house was perfect for a girls weekend! It has all of the amenities we needed (and more) - a large kitchen, screened in room with comfy furniture, a hot tub, and plenty of seating around the fireplace in the backyard. The guest house was great as we all had a comfortable bedroom to sleep in. You can tell the owners treat this home as their own. The host, Amy, was very responsive and checked in with me before, during, and after the trip. I highly recommend - we could not have asked for a better house for a girls weekend and look forward to coming back!
My family and I couldn’t have been more pleased with this property. It brought us all together but still allowed for our individual space. The kitchen was an exceptional gathering area where we all congregated during meal prep. The sound system offered us the ambiance necessary for the occasion. The grounds were literally ‘heavenly’. You can hear the train infrequently which only added to the unique experience.
This is our second time back to the property and just love it. It’s on a quiet tree lined street and the Fall colors were amazing. The property is so elegant and love the cozy feel of a home - beautifully decorated and the beds are so comfortable. Amy, the host, is the best of the best and so communicative. Some of my favorites at the house - screened in porch with fireplace, the kitchen (fully stocked), front porch swing, the beds, and the backyard. Truly a remarkable property and a fantastic location. We will be back!!
If I could give this beautiful and spacious home and its, excellent, excellent host -10 stars - I would ,undoubtedly!
Fully equipped home for all of your needs (all amenities to wish for), Amy- the host that goes above and beyond to answer any questions or help with any inquiries; hot tub, swimming pool , beach -you can walk or drive to; definitely a gorgeous place in Union Pier and outstanding service to come back to for years to come!
Yes and Yes! Yes, we loved this beautiful, well-appointed home for its comfort, cleanliness and darling neighborhood! Our incredible hosts, Amy and Jeff, were responsive and communicated incredibly well. They even had 2 bikes for us to use for the short ride to beach. We were 10 adults which included a 21 year old who slept on the sleeper sofa in the guest house and said it was comfy and slept til noon!
Yes, we'd love to stay here again! We just need to stay longer next time!!
