The location was perfect and the cottage had everything we needed as a family of 4. It does need a deep cleaning inside and out. The only bathroom is located in the main bedroom downstairs. This was not a problem for us. The host were very responsive. Overall we did enjoy our stay.

We LOVED the cozy cottage. We were a family of 5 who lived and stayed comfortably here. It was fully stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen. The place was clean and well taken care of. We were a 10 minute walk to the beach and had plenty of outdoor space to sit and enjoy the evening. We will absolutely be returning!

The unit was clean and well decorated. There was a very strong smell of chlorine/bleach when we arrived. The unit was smaller than expected; we had 4 people and it felt tight. Also the only bathroom was off the master bedroom so inconvenient. However, close to beach and good response from the owners when emailed.

Great location

Perfect location for the beach and the cooler on wheels and beach chairs were helpful. The cottage was small but fine for our family and the two kids loved having the loft to themselves. The cottage is definitely older and a bit worn around the edges but great for a long weekend away from the city.

Quick Stay

Originally booked this to have easy access to the Indiana Dunes, however with the heat decided to instead spend our time at Washington Park Beach. The house was super close, and stocked with sand toys and beach chairs. Everything was exactly as pictured and very convenient. The beach is fantastic, aside from the industrial area nearby. Some of the clearest water and best sand bottom we’ve been to along Lake Michigan. The stairs up to the loft area are very tiny and steep, just a warning they may not be good for someone who has mobility challenges. However, this sleeping area was perfect for my two kids to share!

Perfect landing pad

Loved this house for our long weekend trip. Just enough room for our family of 5, really enjoyed the outside space after a busy day of running around the dunes and the beach. Kids liked playing with the sand toys and adults enjoyed the beach chairs. Close to everything we wanted to do but wish we had more days to explore!

Great stay & Excellent hosts

The cottage was in a perfect location for us, walking distance to a semi-private feeling beach and local cafes. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and even a couple cold beers in the fridge. Tom and Susan also graciously let us check out later on Father’s Day so that we wouldn’t miss out on our extended family’s Beach Day. Would totally recommend their beach cottage.

Weekend getaway

We loved the location and the house - it was close to Indiana Dunes which is where we were hiking plus Michigan City. It was also 2 blocks to the beach which was a bonus. There were workers there Saturday all day pounding and making noise which was a little frustrating when we were trying to relax and rest but otherwise it was a beautiful location and the house met all our needs!

Cozy

The cottage was cozy but had everything you need. It’s the perfect location and the owners were great. It was a little too close for comfort with our original crew of 6 adults and a toddler but once a couple of them left half way through the trip it was perfect. The location was absolutely perfect. I loved it!!
