New Buffalo population — 2,200
New Buffalo, Michigan is situated on the beaches of Lake Michigan, in the southwestern corner of Michigan bordering northern Indiana. This area is sometimes referred to as "Michiana", "Harbor Country" or "Lake Michigan's Gold Coast". Whatever moniker is used, the New Buffalo area is synonymous with fun, rest and relaxation. It has many resort cottages, condos and homes available for rent for a day, a weekend, a week or the entire summer.
Many vacation rental units are located within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and recreational facilities – others exchange that convenience for solitude or a short walk to the beach. A few of the activities you can enjoy in the New Buffalo area are beachcombing, canoeing, freshwater fishing, hiking, swimming, kayaking, wind surfing, gambling, boating, water skiing, jet skiing, golf, fine dining, sailing, biking and antque shopping. It's just a great place to spend the summer!
