About this house rental
This metal sided lodge with a metal roof was once offices for a construction company. The owners happened to be our landlords when we rented their cottage across the field. We fell in love with the 2000 acre park behind us and wanted to create our own space.
Since we renovate homes for a living, we were able to collect a lot of items along the way that didn't fit someone else's vision for their new space. There was also the mismeasured door or cabinet or window that needed a new home. All of these lovely items found a new home in our converted structure.The screened porch was a covered dirt floor for lumber. Our great room was a garage and the bedrooms were offices.As you can see from the pictures, it has come a long way.
It is hard to get the experience of feeling you are a million miles away from everything unless you take out a second mortgage on your home and head to the Polynesian Islands. Fortunately for us, we found this crown jewel of a 2000 acre park called Warren Dunes on the lake one hour and twenty minutes from Chicago. We are on the North end of the park away from the main entrance so it is like owning your own private estate on the lake. We hardly run into a soul all year round. Since we can not enjoy all the time ourselves, we decided to share the secret with you..

We had such a wonderful stay. This house was perfect and felt spacious for our family of four, plus two Shih Tzus. Our favorite area was the screened in patio with the hot tub- it was an awesome way to start and end each day. When we realized how close we were to Chicago (1 hr, 25 mins), we decided to do a Chicago day and drove out for a riverboat cruise. It was awesome being able to easily make a day of that.All around, wonderful stay.

We lived our stay. Close to local wineries and breweries and such a nice hot tub. Home was clean and all necessities provided.

Everything was clean and well stocked with a little Christmas tree set up, very cute. A perfect little relaxing place to spend the holidays, we love this place! The hot tub is especially great on the back porch, with some lovely views during winter sunsets. And the main room is super cozy with the huge couch and fireplace . We will be back!

We truly loved the trails to Warren dunes from the end of the road. It was stunning and incredible to be able to got on an evening walk to watch the sunset while watching your kids climb dunes they have all to themselves. It was honestly an ok VRBO. The door truly did not lock, seemed to be able to push the front door open no matter what we tried. The yard and hot tub porch left a lot to be desired but the kids were perfectly happy. I would say that if you have children on cots one of the rooms is quite spacious and allows room for extra people while one is a bit smaller to add sleepers. We stayed for 2 nights, it was a good place to sleep and adventure from but not our favorite as a place to hang out.
