This includes: high chair, pack and play, outlet covers, cabinet locks, step stools, faucet extenders, attached potty seats, books, toys and children's dishes.
We're located ~2hrs from Chicago, close to the best attractions in Southwest Michigan, only minutes away from downtown New Buffalo. Convenient for day trips to St. Joseph and South Haven.

Let the kids play in the cozy reading nook stocked with comfy pillows, a variety of popular children's books, and a busy board. Unwind at night with dinner al fresco and a marshmallow roast over the fire, toasting with a glass of local wine from your travels.
We are also pet-friendly and have pet bowls, a waterproof blanket, poop bags, and a stake for your dog's leash. We do ask that you crate your dog when not in the home for the dog's safety.
