About this property

Romantic Cozy Home in "America’s Nicest Town"

Named after the flowering Red Bud Trees of famous Red Bud Trail, Red Bud Home is perfectly situated in charming Buchanan, MI Named by Readers Digest as "The Nicest Town in America." Tucked one block from cafes, shops, art galleries, coffee houses, parks, and more. Featuring cozy spaces, quiet decks, kitchen garden, and laundry room the home is well appointed. 15 mins from Berrien Springs, South Bend, and Notre Dame and a short drive from St. Joe/MI Beaches. Red Bud Home is your perfect stay.

Red Bud Home is a two bedroom, two bath with kitchen, living room, dining room, study, and laundry room. Sleeps 4 comfortably with extra bed available.

This lovely retreat uses a blend of art and nature in its decor, with a touch of cozy serenity.

The entire downstairs apartment is yours with shared parking with upstairs tenant. Lock box is located by the door. You will receive a check in code on the day of check in.

I live in the town next door if you should need anything.

Buchanan is conveniently located just 15-min drive from both Berrien Springs MI, home of Andrew’s University and South Bend IN, home of Norte Dame. It is also a short drive from St. Joe and many MI beaches.

Ample parking, walking distance to everything you need.
