About this property

Indiana Dunes 2-Bedroom Beach Rental

Our Duneland Rentals cottages are located right on the beach in the heart of the Indiana Dunes.
This lovely 2-bedroom beach rental is just steps form the lake. There is nothing between you and the lake except the lovely sandy beach.
Amenities include hardwood floors, high speed internet, cable t.v., central air, charcoal grill, coffee maker, microwave, ceiling fans, and 350’ of private beach. Our cottage is right on the beach.

We are located within walking distance to the Indiana Dunes State Park and the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore where there are miles of beautiful hiking, biking and cross country ski trails. Just a short ten minute drive away are the towns are Chesterton and Porter where there are a number of excellent restaurants, shops and cultural attractions. We are one hour from Chicago by car or the South Shore Railroad (the nearest stop to us is Dunes Park Station).

I’m sorry but we do not allow pets or smoking. Maximum occupancy is 4 people (adults and children). Additional day guests and visitors are not permitted.

An oasis close to home
This rental was one of the best locations we have ever stayed. The cottage was right on the beach and had all the comforts of home. The host has thought of just about everything and has provided it, including beach chairs, kayaks, sand toys, and much more. There were two things that were not mentioned in the description, but were mentioned in the comments: you park at the top of a steep hill, and have to walk down many wooden steps to reach the cottage. We would have packed differently if we had seen that in the description. The description did not mention that this cottage was located below another rental. Luckily, our upstairs neighbors were fairly quiet, and we mostly heard the floor creaking when they walked in and a little bit of muffled sound from the television. We normally do not find issue with the taste of water in most places that we have traveled, but we struggled with the taste of the well water. You may want to pick up some bottled water for drinking. The state park is literally just a walk down the beach. We hiked two days in the state park and it was fantastic. Unfortunately we did not make it to the national park. We definitely plan to come back in the future. Our host not only provided suggestions of hikes, but also some great restaurants. She was super responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Birding Festival Weekend
My son (who is 11) and I were in town for the birding festival and were so lucky to have been able to book this lovely cottage. It is literally on the beach, surrounded by sand and gorgeous views. It was so peaceful and we loved listening to the waves from the private deck! We will definitely be back next year and hopefully before!

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

Our cottages are right on the beach. There is nothing between you and the lake except beach. You can walk on the beach for miles in either direction. From the cottage or the beach you can watch the sun set behind the skyline of Chicago or watch a beautiful lightening storm cross the lake.
