Our smoke-free cottage is clean and decorated with a real cottage/beach feel. On the first floor is a screened in porch area with wicker furniture on one side and a game table area and futon sofa on the other side, a living room (new furniture) with fireplace, kitchen, large dining room, two bedrooms (one with twin/twin bunkbeds, one with twin/full bunkbeds), and powder room. The second floor has three bedrooms (two with new queens, the other one has a full) and one full bath. Washer/dryer and one full bath are located in the basement. Living room, stairway, and all five bedrooms have new carpeting.
At the back of the cottage is a yard, patio, and deck. You'll find outdoor furniture, a fire pit, and a charcoal grill for your use. There is a bonus patio area in the front of the cottage with a picnic table that is great for people watching. Parking is not a problem. Plenty of room on the side drive for cars and street parking in front of the cottage. Our family has always enjoyed going to the beach cottage and we hope that yours will enjoy staying here too.
Spend some time on the beach - from sitting back and enjoying a good book to sailing, boating, and jet skiing. Walk to the coffee shop, Washington Park, zoo, museum, or marina.
Go shopping at The Prime Outlet Mall. Try your luck at the Blue Chip Casino. Golfing, tennis, and horseback riding is nearby. Hike at the Indiana Dunes.
Go fruit picking at one of the many orchards located nearby. Tour the local wineries or a micro-brewery. Enjoy a meal at one of the many great restaurants. Activities are limited to your imagination.
