About This Lot

As of March 2025

The Preserve is a unique area of 20 very-private building sites on a scenic 175 acre property including a portion of the Galien River Marsh. Close to Lake Michigan and downtown New Buffalo, but with space, privacy, peace and tranquility. A magical spot to unplug, fish, swim, hike, or build a fort in the woods. Tennis anyone? Lightening bugs. The beauty of a sunset over the marsh is one of the area's best kept secrets. If you seek to build a vacation home in an area that offers nice people, stunning homes, a variety of outdoor activities and a casual but elegant setting, then this may be the spot for you!
