Perfect getaway

My girls and I enjoyed our 4 night stay. Perfect location to hit the beaches and a short drive to Michigan City to hit the outlet mall. They supplied everything we needed to cook our own meals there, it was quiet and cozy. We would definitely stay again!

Our stay at the lake house

Super cute little place to stay and within 20 minutes of the beach. Would definitely stay there again. Only thing that didnt make sense was the parking situation.
