Karen was responsive, kind, and pleasant. The space was open concept which worked out perfectly to keep an eye on the kids in the playpen while we cooked. The home was clean and spacious, my only note would be if you’re traveling with teens like we were there aren’t many TV’s for them to hook up a gaming system to. There were many games on the premise and a hot tub. So this spaces definitely has its perks. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Agustin and Karen

Host profile image
I am a fellow Illinoisan, I grew up in the western suburbs of Chicago, I graduated from Northern Illinois University in Dekalb, and when I was growing up I would visit the Indiana Dunes, New Buffalo, St. Joseph, and visited many beach towns up on the Lake Michigan coast. I work in the mortgage industry and have a family of 4, as I got older I became very fond of my childhood memories coming to Lake Michigan and enjoying the beach. I hope you enjoy our vacation home and make those same memories our family has made.

Why they chose this property

This home is spacious but also has that family feeling that allows you to spend time together, regardless if you are in the kitchen, dining room, or living room. With so many bedrooms it's easy to accommodate a big family trip on an affordable budget. The home was recently renovated and designed for your comfort.

What makes this property unique

The property is a 5 minute drive from Washington Park Beach, very close to New Buffalo, Indiana Dunes, and not too far from Chicago. The house has a hot tub to relax in, and is great entertainment areas both inside the kitchen and in the backyard. Michigan City is also growing and has very unique eateries. The house is a perfect check point if you're driving in from the city, or if you're visiting from somewhere else and are tempted to drive to Chicago, or up the Michigan coast.
