Welcome to Elle J Retreat house! This house has the Michiana cottage feel with beautiful pine flooring, but is updated with all of the modern amenities . This three bedroom/two bath home is tucked away in a woodsy setting so you can relax in peace and quiet. There is a fully stocked kitchen. The lovely screened-in porch is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee.
4 vintage adult bikes/2 kid bikes and beach floats available for your use.
Elle J Retreat house is the perfect getaway spot anytime of the year! The spacious outdoor deck with seating and a gas grill is perfect for family cook-outs. The house is set on a private wooded lot with much privacy. It is a short walk to Lake Michigan's Stop 37 for sunset. You can spend your summers on the beach; falls enjoying the changing tree foliage, a winery/brewery, or even a Notre Dame Football Game; Winter is great for sledding and then snuggling around the fireplace; Spring is great for all of the local hiking trails and golf courses.
Elle J Retreat is 2 blocks from Stop 50 Wood Fire Pizza and the horse stables where you can take a trail ride. The property backs up to the open wooded field where sometimes you can catch a glimpse of the horses running along the fence. We are 8 blocks to the Stop 37. If tides are high, stop 41 1/2 is a 10 minute bike ride. Blueberry picking is 2 miles away. Many apple orchards are 15 minutes away.

Michiana Shores
I travelled with my husband, daughter and three teenage grandchildren. There was plenty of room for all of us. Communication with the host was quick and easy. She even let us know when the property was ready and we could check in early. The property was clean and looked exactly like the pictures. We would definitely stay here again

Great for family vacation!
We loved the “cabin” as my grandsons called it :) It was perfect for our needs. The extra touches - games, bikes and beach chairs were great! Laura was very responsive to our questions and very helpful with suggestions of things to do. Very family friendly area with two play areas near by. We highly recommend this home.

Beautiful Scenery
Dark arrival. Missed the keypad because it’s dark too lol Plenty of room for all. Beds all great! Used one of the Trundle (grey) also very cozy! Plenty of blankets and seating for all. Deck was great for nature, eating, and coffee. Deer every morning. Convenient to Lake Michigan. Nice quiet area. Kids loved bikes! Would stay again for sure. Candles would help closed up scent go away quicker.

Lovely house/cabin
We had a wonderful time! We were a group of 8 adulta and we wanted a weekend getway from the city. At about just over an hour away from chicago it offered the calm and quiet we need to relax. The host offered everything you could need. We used the bikes located in the shed and road all the way to the nearest beach! This was a memorable trip and we def recommend this for everyone including families with young children! We loved the fire pit. The only thing i would recommend is extending the lights from the back porch to the trees near and around the fire pit. Other than that the house was perfect!

Review
The home was very nice and had lots of amenities that we loved! 2 things we didn't care for - the too early check out time (10:00am). Since we couldn't check in until about 4:00, it just seems really short. Most places are at least 11:00 or 12:00 checkout. Also, the rooms that had the trundle beds were Very small and we had to move furniture around ourselves in order to get the trundles out. Renters should not have to move furniture so rooms are usable. Perhaps those rooms can be reconfigured to make it easier to pull out trundles. In any case, the rooms are very small to have the bed and trundle in them and you essentially have to walk over/on the trundle to get out of rooms. The owner was Very accomodating and responsive to all inqueries and the home is lovely.

Michigan City Chicago World Fair
Learned about the Chicago Fair houses in a class I took at Lourdes University recently and was so excited to see them and have a little vacation at the same time. I literally spent hours on the internet researching how we could see them. I asked at least 6 different people at the visitor centers, park visitors centers, VRBO owners. Couldn’t find anything!!! I don’t know if people are trying to protect the homes from people roaming the neighborhood or if people who live there really just don’t know anything about them. We did finally find them, and they did not disappoint. After visiting there, we went to the Depot, a small art gallery/museum. It was packed full of information about the houses and the fair!! Good place to start if you’re interested in seeing the houses. Our VRBO was close to everything we wanted to see. It had a beautiful porch for game playing and a cozy tv area for watching a Halloween movie each night. I would recommend this VRBO for a fun vacation!!

Relaxing week in Michiana!
We had a fabulous week staying in Laura’s house. We spent most of our time on the wonderful screened in porch. It’s so peaceful out there; just listening to the birds and watching for deer. Plenty of towels, chairs, etc… for the beach. Beach is about a 12-13 minute walk from the house. House was very clean and just as it looks in the pictures. Would definitely rent from Laura again. Thanks for a great week!

Great girls getaway
We had a fantastic time here - it was the perfect setting for a girls weekend getaway. We spent a lot of time on the screened in porch and down by the fire pit. The walk to the beach was beautiful and we enjoyed riding the bikes around the quiet neighborhood. The house was very well-stocked for cooking all of our meals. We will definitely be coming back again!

Great place for a family vacation
Our family (6 of us) had a great time here. It truly is retreat-like. Cozy and private and has everything you need. We enjoyed the lake, biking, walking, playing games indoors and out. Laura was excellent to work with through the whole process. We plan on visiting again with friends--we want to show them the place and the area! Thanks Laura!

Some girlfriends and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway! The house was so cute and was well-maintained. We had plenty of space for the 6 of us to hang out, and we were appreciative that there was a list of things to do locally and good places to eat nearby! Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!
