Have had unbelievable experience with Agents from Rubloff out of their New Buffalo Offices in working with them over the past 8yrs on the purchase of both my primary and second homes and have referred them to a few friends as well who have been extremely grateful for the referral. When I was told Prudential Rubloff had acquired the rental company formerly known as New Buffalo Vacation Rentals, I was more than happy to give them a try this year to rent out our second home. We've rented only once before but by a smaller organization in the area. I was looking forward to having my home professionally managed and thought a larger company with Prudential Rubloff's reputation might be better. We signed a contract with them April 1st and they've recently found us a renter for the summer.

Rented 'As Good as it Gets' from NBVR for a weekend and the house was very nice; even better than…read moreexpected. I can't speak for their other properties, but I assume they're nicely furnished and equally enjoyable. No issues with the property at all. It really was as if a family, who enjoyed hanging out and having fun, vacated their house for our use. I give 4 stars instead of 5, because I think the rental agreement is a wee bit knit-picky and also because there was a slight glitch with the payment...however Dan, the owner, personally took care of the issue immediately. In the end, everything turned out just fine. Just follow all the rules and there shouldn't be any issues. We slept 14 guys comfortably, although we did bring some air mattresses. Dan stopped by when we first arrived, just to make sure everything was OK, then we didn't see him again. If you're considering renting in New Buffalo, I recommend looking at some of New Buffalo Vacation Rentals, and I specifically recommend 'As Good as it Gets'.

Water, Water Everywhere, Leaking from the Ceiling and Up From the Floors - 400 Beachwalk, Michigan…read moreCity, Indiana If you're searching for a Michigan City vacation rental, Beachwalk Community rental home, Indiana Lake Michigan beach house, or a family-friendly vacation home near the beach, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere before booking Take It Easy at 400 Beachwalk. Unfortunately, our stay was impacted by multiple major maintenance and water intrusion issues that made large portions of the property unusable. The most concerning issue was large amounts of groundwater leaking up through a floor drain on the ground level, resulting in standing water and creating an unpleasant environment. Additionally, groundwater was overflowing from the ground-level toilet, raising significant concerns about the property's drainage, plumbing, and overall maintenance. The problems became even worse when we discovered that a cracked shower in the upper-level bathroom was leaking substantial amounts of water into a first-floor bedroom below. Water drained through the ceiling for over 12 hours, causing visible damage and making the bedroom unusable for the duration of our stay. As a result, we also lost access to the upstairs bathroom, significantly reducing the functionality of the home and creating a major inconvenience for our group. When you book a premium Michigan City VRBO, Beachwalk resort rental, Lake Michigan vacation home, or Indiana beach getaway, you expect a clean, well-maintained property that is ready for guests. Instead, we dealt with groundwater intrusion, plumbing failures, water damage, moisture issues, and the loss of critical living space. These issues negatively affected our vacation and did not reflect the quality advertised for a Beachwalk Community rental property. For travelers looking for a Michigan City beach vacation, Beachwalk Community lodging, Lake Michigan rental property, Northwest Indiana vacation home, weekend beach getaway, or luxury beach house rental in Michigan City, I would recommend thoroughly researching alternatives and staying far away from this property. The management company, Third Coast Vacations, had to send maintenance people out on four separate occasions to deal with the above issues, further impacting our stay. On the fourth occasion, one stood in the main room, patted me on the shoulder, and told me, "We would be taken care of," insinuating they cared about us. However, after checking out, that could not have been further from the truth. Communication had to be initiated by us for any resolution, and that resolution is a far cry from making up for all that we experienced in this trip. The combination of groundwater flooding, toilet overflow, ceiling leaks, water damage, unusable bedrooms, and loss of bathroom access made this one of the most disappointing vacation rental experiences we've had. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Take It Easy at 400 Beachwalk, Michigan City, Indiana, and would not consider staying here again or recommending anyone else risk a vacation at this house. EDIT: The owner mentions a "healthy refund" in their response. I guess we have different definitions of what "healthy" and "taken care of" mean from this rental company.

It's absolutely the worst customer service I have ever encountered in hospitality. They have nice properties listed, but don't count on your vacation sticking. We received an *email* two weeks before our rental that it was canceled due to "scheduling issues." (It had been reserved since November for week in July.) That's it, no call, no explanation, and no effort to try to remedy the situation. Despite the email saying we would receive a full refund, we have not. I have left over a dozen voicemails and no one has returned my calls.

I went here for a winter weekend getaway with some girlfriends, and we all had the best time!!! -This cottage is located walking distance from downtown and the beach. So, it's right by all the shopping and restaurants. It's even walking distance to the grocery store if you need to pick up a few things. It's located in a small neighborhood, at the end of a quiet street. -The interior design is absolutely amazing! It's such a cute gem of a place. It's so farmhouse chic... with fluffy blankets, adorable pillows, candles, wreaths... and just everything to make it perfect! The second you walk in, you 100% feel like you're home! The interior design of this house was my favorite aspect of staying here! -Some awesome things... there's an indoor fireplace, essential oil spray for the bedding, a fully stocked kitchen, an upstairs little hidden attic... and then bikes and a pool to use in the summer! I cannot recommend this place enough! Do yourself a favor and take a little vacation here!

I did try the raspberry lemon and it was quite delicious as well, but I'm definitely an orange creamsicle gal.

She ghosted me several times--not answering when I called to ask her to check on the house. I even had a friend call to ask her to contact me and she said "I never heard of her!" She billed me more than she advertised. When I asked her to check on the house she told me all was well. But a few weeks after she said that when I asked to have the house cleaned...she told me my house was over run with rodents and her staff ran out screaming. How could the house be over run with rodents when weeks before it was fine? The answer--she wasn't really checking on my house. Then when I came out to investigate it turns out that her team or Lisa herself had left the basement door WIDE open during the polar vortex weather. Of course mice got in!!! She also had the temerity to charge me $90 for that aborted service. When I sent a handyman over--he found the back door WIDE open! And several windows cracked open as well. Avoid her like the plague!!! She is a charleton. She was very prompt only in sending bills--not doing the services that she promised to deliver. Stay away.

When pricing defaulted to 'dyamic' pricing, it was far below what we agreed on as our minimum nightly or weekly charge. We have 'no pet' policy in place, and the first two weeks of the summer had guests show up with dogs! We were told Vacasa would designate where guests were to park. Instead, they parked all over our yard and lawn area. Cleaning between guests was quick (about an hour for multiple buildings) and not always complete. In the positive column, cleaning was always finished on time and the linens provided (Homeowner pays for them) were nice quality.
