Book with confidence!This property had many conveniences throughout and was very clean. The host had great communication. Also, it's centrally located with no more than 10min to most sites worth visiting or 20-30min tops for attractions like the Dunes National Park or places in Valparaiso.

We had a great weekend stay! Without a doubt, host communication was the absolute highlight of our trip. When booking a vacation rental, clear communication is everything, especially during the booking process, the 24–48 hours before arrival, and whenever quick questions pop up during your stay. This host completely delivered and then some, responding to every message within minutes!While the house itself was fairly simple, it served our needs just fine as a home base for the weekend. The location is super convenient. You are only a 7–10 minute drive to the beach, 20 minutes from Indiana Dunes National Park, and 20 minutes to New Buffalo. Plus, the local town itself has plenty to offer.If you value responsive, reliable hosts who ensure a seamless and stress-free check-in experience, you can book here with complete confidence!

Fast, clear communication is something we genuinely pride ourselves on, so hearing that it was the highlight of your trip means everything to us. We're glad Sand & Sun Retreat worked perfectly as your home base for the weekend and that the location made it easy to explore the beach, Indiana Dunes and New Buffalo. There really is so much to love about this corner of Indiana! We'd love to have you back anytime — stress-free check-in guaranteed! 😄 — Eddi & the Sauve Stays Team

Overall stay was pleasant. Property close to Michigan City beach, very nice. Due to recent storms beach had no power so restrooms were closed. Porta Johns were available. There were some maintenance issues that need to be addressed at property. There were plenty of beds. The kitchen was open and stocked well. We chose to bring our own board games. Owner responded to concerns in a timely manner.

Thank you for the kind review and for your patience with the storm-related beach closures — that was certainly out of everyone's control! We're glad the property's location, kitchen and beds worked well for your group, and that we were able to respond to your concerns promptly. We take the maintenance feedback seriously and are actively working through those items to ensure the next guests have a seamless experience. We hope to welcome you back under better beach conditions next time! — Eddi & the Sauve Stays Team

The property was exactly what we were shown online. We loved the closeness to the various beaches and the great restaurant recommendations.
