Everything was just as expected. Great location and the property was perfect for our needs. We enjoyed the proximity to the parks and town during our stay.

10.0 / 10.0

Appears rural, but just a short drive to everything (e.g. hiking trails, shopping, dining, beach). Large yard. Clean house and stocked kitchen to cook. Filtered well water. Beautiful area.

8.0 / 10.0

Loved this location, close to the parks yet room enough for our dogs to run and not worry about traffic and neighbors. The top floor was very clean and recently redecorated. The kitchen was well-stocked, including bottled water. The tap water is discolored and smelled sulphuric, so the bottled water was much appreciated. We enjoyed the screened sunroom and watching the blue jays. The basement smelled musty, but we didn’t need or use that area so it didn’t matter to us. A couple of the bath towels were mildewed but there were others that were fine. My husband found the queen bed to be too hard for him, but it didn’t bother me… the owner provided shampoo, conditioner and body wash which were great. However, the one-ply toilet paper was disappointing. Beautiful area to explore and loved the dunes!

10.0 / 10.0

The house was in a great location with a wonderful outdoor area that was quiet and private. House was well stocked and very clean and they provided a lot of extras like bottled water and toiletries. Check in was super easy and communication was prompt. The area itself was wonderful and within a mile of a great beach on Lake Michigan and hiking.Had a little issue with being charged an unknown pet fee on our last day, but more of a miscommunication and did not detract from a great stay.

10.0 / 10.0

We had a wonderful time! The whole process was very easy. The property is beautiful and so close to the park. George gave us some great tips, including where to get firewood in the area. Thanks again!

Overall stay was great! The property was bigger than expected. There were plenty of amenities. The host was super responsive. Great overall experience, super close to beach/ downtown areas, and the train to Chicago. We would definitely come back!

8.0 / 10.0

Overall good stay. Recommend host get duvets for the duvet covers, was an odd bedding choice to have just the duvet covers as blankets. Also recommend a dehumidifier for the basement. Well stocked kitchen and more beds than expected!

Our host communicated very well and kept us up to date on everything! The house was very well kept and very accommodating! Perfect for nights by the fire or a very short drive to beachs, shops, and restaurants! Absolutely loved it!!

10.0 / 10.0

The house was very spacious. There are steps leading to the front door. The living room was very large. We enjoyed the ambience of the electric fireplace. The kitchen was well stocked. The water was well water and it had a slight smell. The host provided a case (24) of bottled water, plus 2 gallons bottles. The lower level was a nice retreat! It had 2 twin beds and pull out sofa. The TV and sectional seating in the family gathering space were a nice bonus!! The neighborhood looked a bit run down, but the neighbors seemed friendly and quiet. We stayed an extra night because the house fit our needs and we loved walking on the trails

8.0 / 10.0

House was nice. Oven set off the smoke detector. Needed more seating in the living room. Man door to the garage would not lock so no one used the downstairs bedroom. Can’t use the Kurig machine. No easy beach access.

10.0 / 10.0

There was more than enough room inside and outside for our family of five. The place is all newly renovated and the beds are very comfortable. The house is located about a mile from the beach and we never had a issue getting parking right by the beach. We loved the area. We went to a lot of different places within the National Park and nothing was farther than 15-20 minutes away. We also took the train to see a Cubs game at Wrigley Field. I loved being able to quickly drive down to the lake and catch a spectacular sunset! I also enjoyed running from the house and along Lake Michigan.

10.0 / 10.0

Stayed here for four nights for the Indiana Dunes Birding Festival. Property is just 10 minutes away from festival headquarters at IN Dunes Welcome Center and close to most of the other birding sites we visited. The large living and kitchen area (that looks newly remodeled) was nice for unwinding after a long day of birding. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, plates, coffee maker, etc. Staying here was better for us than a hotel because of food restrictions for one of our family members - could bring and fix our own food. Thanks to our host!
