Great townhome. Teen loved separate sleeping area and her own bathroom. Literal walk to a beautiful beach. Our stay included a pass to the Dunes National Park, which was amazing. House had everything we needed, and our host was gracious and attentive. Upstairs was a little warm, but it was literally the heat dome week, and downstairs stayed cool. Would recommend for families looking for great beaching hiking fishing and canoeing.

All the comforts of home! Everything was great for our two families (two adults and four kids ages 9-13). Big thumbs up from both kids and adults. So many fun things....walk to beach (beach towels and chairs were very handy), games, s'mores, fully equipped kitchen - even a few starter snacks! The park pass was also much appreciated. Jill was very responsive and has clearly put thought into what will provide guests with a great stay - such as labeling items and great instructions. Plenty of supplies, bedding, pillows and outlets. All around a fantastic experience!I left a note on a couple of things. The screen for the upper deck appeared to have already been damaged when we first went to use it. I accidentally detached/broke a window shade pull in the main bedroom...am hoping those are relatively easy to replace. Many thanks for your hospitality!!

Beautiful home where they’ve thought of everything you could need for a beach vacation-a very short walk to the beach -could hear waves from the bedroom. Also very close to the national park-hiked there almost every day

Overall I think Jill was the best host I have ever experienced with VRBO (been using for several years). She was so thoughtful and kind. The property was beautiful and truly included more amenities than listed. The beach was just a quick walk away. The whole experience was amazing.

Beachside townhouse with everything needed to spend the day at the and a wonderful host!!
This home is a few min walk to miller beach and includes pretty much anything you would need to stay at the beach for the day. We used the grill a few times and the gas fire pit on the back patio which is super cozy. The best place we have ever stayed and our kids loved it. We even got to watch some deer and lizards pass through on the back patio. The host was amazing! We definitely want to come back. We have no negatives about our stay here :) You won’t regret staying here!

We had a wonderful time. Short walk to the beach and the Dunes. Very easy to explore the whole area including lovely cities such as Chesterton and Porter. The house was clean and very nicely decorated. Jill was a fantastic host, very communicative and thoughtful. She had plenty of great recommendations. We have two little kids and she had the pack-and-play, booster seat, as well as toys ready for them. Planning on returning!

Fabulous find! Worth checking it out!
The condo was exactly as described. It was very clean and updated as listed. It was a perfect quick getaway choice for our family plus fur baby. The walk to the beach was short and seeing the additional wildlife around the area was cool to see. The property owners (Jill) was fabulous to work with too!
Definitely worth checking out and coming back too in the future! The beach was clean and we had plenty of space to ourselves on a busy HOT weekend too!

This was a great place to stay for our family! Jill is extremely accommodating! She knew we had our granddaughters coming and she had some fun puppets out and delivered sand toys for them to use. The beach items that were available to use were perfect! She responded to all of my questions immediately. The house is very nice and has everything you need. I would highly recommend this place!
Thanks for everything Jill!!

Great family vacation at Indiana Dunes
We had so much fun by the Indiana Dunes. We enjoyed so many activities including kayaking, mini golf, cycling, and hiking. There was also a ton of diverse, delicious, culinary cuisine nearby. The beach was amazing with squeaky sand, refreshing water, and just a 5 minute walk from the house! The house was very clean, organized and well-stocked. The hostess answered all of our questions and was very helpful throughout our stay. We were surprised by the amount of traffic noise and bright lights at night in the small neighborhood, but that did not take away from the overall positive experience. We all enjoyed our trip!

Great stay!
Attention to detail, well stocked kitchen. 1 block from nice beach with beach chairs & umbrella, beach wagon. Bikes with available tire pump if needed. Gas grill, gas fire pit, outdoor seating. Separation of bedrooms upstairs/downstairs was a plus for us with our adult children. Bathroom spaces excellent. The only slight negative was the high volume of cars at the corner intersection especially on a nice Saturday beach day waiting to park. Communication with Jill was excellent! Will return if visiting the area

Peaceful Place
This was the ideal place for me and my two adult children to reconnect with our Indiana roots, and enjoy all NW Indiana has to offer. Jill, could not have been a more attentive host. The house has everything you could possibly need, including 16 ways to make coffee. (you are bound to find at least one of them to your liking). This was the most well stocked vacation home I have ever been too...not only the kitchen, but also beach chairs, towels, and a wagon to cart everything. Being one block from one of the best beaches was a bonus. Jill and her husband did an extraordinary job of not only creating a beautiful space, but connecting with us along the way to make sure all was well. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

The Best Lake Michigan Vacation Secret
Although "Lovely Home" accurately describes this vacation house, the pictures do not do it justice!
This space was perfect for our family of five. We had enough room to spread out while still being connected. The owners were diligent with communication before during and after our trip. This allowed them to make sure every comfort was available for our family. They clearly made adjustments to the property to make it inviting not just for my spouse and I but for our children (10, 8, and 2). It felt like an upscale vacation rental while being homey at the same time.
Can we talk about the location?! The walking distance to two such lovely beaches was priceless - especially during the Fourth of July holiday week when we stayed. While the line of cars stretched far around the neighborhood for beach access we were able to quickly and easily grab a spot on the sand. Not only that, but the owners know the area and provided many tips such as how to avoid the crowds. We enjoyed time on the beach whenever weather allowed.
This home may have also turned us into hikers! We visited both Indiana Dunes State and National Park on multiple days. It was too easy not to!
Overall, we would 100% recommend this home and equally desire to return to make more memories.

Accommodating and Delightful
The property manager was more than accommodating. She was very thoughtful and included interesting and quality materials for everyone’s use throughout the property. If we needed anything her response was immediate and good natured.
Even though the weather wasn’t ideal beach weather for a few days of our stay, we found plenty for my family of 5 (kids 4-8) to do. There are hiking trails everywhere. We particularly enjoyed the 3 Dune Challenge.
In terms of our beach experience, we did enjoy the beach that was accessible by walking distance to the property. Anything you could want for a beach experience was provided. A wagon, toys, chairs, two sun tents, etc. We also enjoyed going down to nearby West Beach one day, it was perfect for our littles as there was a large sand bar down the beach a bit. It created a shallow pool and a “safety buffer” of sand so we felt confident. All of these options and suggestions were part of the property manager’s “concierge service.” She offered up a ton of helpful suggestions and options about where we might want to go.
We also made a lot of food on the property and the kitchen was fully stocked, and clearly labeled, with dishes, pots and pans, spices and condiments.
Great hostess, lovely accommodations, wonderful time!

Great getaway
The home was beautifully appointed and inviting. The high airy ceilings, modern yet welcoming furnishings, and great design made me feel "at home" immediately. Shower, bed, kitchen, patios - all were as advertised and very pleasing! There are a ton of extra touches from books, puzzles, Google play, extra towels and more. They really did make this place with you, the guest, in mind!
Jill was a dream to communicate with; any question I had was immediately answered. I so appreciated the extra touches she left to help me understand the area and relax in her home.
The location was "interesting" as I didn't have any experience with this side of Lake Michigan or Miller Beach/Gary Indiana. From Jill's home I could walk to a beach and trails. She had bikes and a beach wagon to borrow. The sand was outstanding and it was fun to pick up a ton of skipping rocks. What a treat to swim in Lake Michigan in June! The trails were excellent and I explored Chesteron - a darling small town that makes me want to explore the area in greater depth. There are major grocery stores and pharmacies within just a few miles. Only reason I gave the location a 4 instead of a 5 is that I was a bit taken aback by the industrial and rather run-down nature of the area I drove through from the highway. Jill's home is right on a corner that wasn't too far from a large apartment complex. I was worried at first about the potential for noise but it was no problem at all. My rating of 4 shouldn't take away from Jill's home; that's the area.
During the weekday West Beach wasn't that crowded. Mostly moms and kids. Groups of young girls (all well-behaved and laughing). As the afternoon wore on, the party boats would show up. On 1 day it was find but on 2 other days the thumping music full of profanity made me flee earlier than I had hoped. Young men in large boats trying to impress the beach crowd aren't my thing. I checked out the Marquette Beach (sp?) and was disappointed to see a lot of garbage on the gorgeous sand. i wouldn't recommend that particular beach area after what I saw but the beach was pretty!
All in all? I'd recommend and hope to go back.
