Wooded Michigan Retreat: 30 Min to Notre Dame - Sleeps 6

Escape to this quiet, comfortable basement apartment tucked into the wooded landscape of Buchanan, Michigan — where you're close to everything but feel a world away from it all.
Whether you're cheering on the Fighting Irish, chasing sunsets over Lake Michigan, or gearing up for a weekend at Redbud MX, this peaceful retreat puts it all within easy reach.

THE SPACE
This cozy two-bedroom apartment sleeps up to six guests and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.
The first bedroom features a queen bed — perfect for couples or anyone who just wants a good night's sleep. The second bedroom is set up for the crew, with two bunk beds that kids (and honestly, adventurous adults) love.
The full kitchen comes equipped with a range, stovetop, and microwave, so you can cook real meals instead of surviving on fast food all weekend. A full bathroom and in-unit laundry mean you can pack lighter and stay longer.
When the weather is right, step outside to the private patio area and take in the wooded backyard — quiet, green, and genuinely relaxing.
