Property Details
New Buffalo Michigan Vacation Rental: Log cabin on 6 secluded acres with breathtaking views of the Galien River, fire pit and outdoor hot tub. Sleeps up to 10 adults and 4 children. Max occupancy: 14.
(2023 FALL AND WINTER ALMOST FULL)
Log cabin on six beautiful acres of land with over 500 feet of Galien River wrapping around the property. Conveniently located -- less than a 10-minute drive to Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo, Journeyman Distillery in Three Oaks, area beaches, marina, restaurants, and golf courses.
The house offers almost 3000 square feet of living space spread out over three floors with four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. An 850-square-foot deck sits off the back of the house facing the Galien River. An outdoor hot tub helps you to enjoy the winter months outside while taking in the views from the deck of the Galien River. Why not spend some time finding yourself again?
This house offers all the amenities of a home—all you need to bring is the desire to relax. The interior was designed to make you comfortable and avoid that “rental feeling.” You can’t pick a better place if privacy is important—there are no neighbors within sight and the view from all sides is wooded. If you decide to venture out, you can enjoy the area by taking a five-minute trip to downtown New Buffalo where the beach is located. Visit the quaint stores, go antique shopping, or just enjoy the many restaurants, cafes, and wineries within minutes of the house. There is even a full-service day spa in the downtown area.
If you are looking for active things to do, the area offers kayak and bike rentals. Take a nice run by the lake or enjoy some of the best rolling hills for bike rides. The new Four Winds Casino is located five minutes away and the Whittaker Golf Course is ten minutes from the house. You are also close to Indiana’s Lighthouse Outlet Mall.
All beds are high quality. The main floor offers the master bedroom with a king bed and a full attached bathroom with a shower but no tub. The upper level has two additional bedrooms each with a queen bed and a single bed. Upstairs you will also find a full bathroom with a shower and a tub. The lower level is where you will find the 4th bedroom which is great for the kids. The fourth bedroom has one king bed, one queen, one double, and a crib. Also downstairs you will find the lower level TV area with plenty of seating and a full bathroom with a shower but no tub.

"Perfect Place for our Family"
This was our 2nd time staying at WAYA’s Den. It’s perfect for our extended family (grandparents, kids, and grand-kids). Plenty of comfortable beds and bathrooms for all. Close to everything we like to do in SW Michigan. Private and scenic setting, with multiple places to congregate and enjoy our time with one another.
"Awesome property"
My family loved our week at WAYA's Den, it is a beautiful property with comfortable beds and fully stocked kitchen. We loved the back deck overlooking the river and the hot tub was used a ton! The property management company was extremely friendly and always answered my questions immediately, we really appreciated their patience and kindness, especially Maria. We would definitely recommend this house! Thank you so much for helping make our family vacation amazing!
"Fantastic"
A great property. Lots of privacy, space, great view of the river, cool decks/relaxing areas, most importantly CLEAN. Would 100% stay here again.
"Wonderful stay for a girls weekend"
We really enjoyed our stay at this cozy property! It was very close to town and had all the amenities you’d want, the hot tub on the deck was such a treat. We loved using the screened in deck on the lower level as well to avoid bugs! We’d definitely stay here again. The only negative is that there is an outdoor light right outside the primary bedroom window that must have been on a timer, we could not figure out how to turn it off, making it not as dark for sleep as we’d prefer, so I’d recommend bringing an eye mask for sleep!
"Sistah's Getaway"
We absolutely, enjoyed our Getaway at WAYA's Den!! The property provided everything we wanted. The property was clean. Basic necessities were well stocked (towels, dishes, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent etc.) The cabin was very spacious and beautiful ☺️ We have plans to come again during summer, so that we can take advantage of the decks and fire pit. It would be nice if the owners installed a generator for power outages. It was a little uncomfortable not being able to flush toilets or have running water. We did use the "outage" as a reason for a slumber party
"We continue to book our stay year after year in this beautiful home"
The owners are always making improvements to the home and our accommodations. Ron is an amazing property manager who goes above and beyond to make your stay memorable and comfortable. This home never disappoints!!!!
"Great place for our family vacation"
Had enough room for 4 couples and 7 kids to each have their own bed. The big family room, screened porch, and outside deck each provided ample room for all to congregate. Everyone agreed the beds were extremely comfortable! Very private and scenic location in the woods. The location was also perfect for quickly getting to places that we like to visit in New Buffalo, Three Oaks, Union Pier, and Sawyer. We've been going to this area every year for 7 years now and have never stayed in the same place twice. This is one we would definitely stay again!
"A great place for a celebration"
I have rented here 4 times and have had some of the best memories of my life here! This time we celebrated my retirement with family and friends. We had a blast! There's plenty of room to spread out and do various activities such as yard games, hot tub, fire at the pit, BBQ on the deck, and games at the great long table. It's also close enough to downtown New Buffalo where we went kayaking on the river, ate at Stray Dogs, and went on tours of the wineries. What a perfect place to have all the fun you want! I'll be back next year!
"Wonderful"
Great house, HUGE deck, HUGE screened-in porch. The home was clean and accommodated our large group.
"Great family get away!"
Our December weekend getaway couldn’t have been any better! The property was amazing! The location was perfect! Great communication with WAYA Rentals from the start of our booking to now! We may be making this trip a new tradition!
