Enjoyed Michigan City

We were 2 retired couples from Illinois enjoying a long weekend away. Between Michigan City and going thru towns on this side of Lake Michigan it was most enjoyable. This rental had everything we needed and it was as listed on VRBO. Good location as most of what we wanted to do was fairly close.

nice space to unwind

overall the place was great and clean! only a few things you should be aware of, there’s a train near by and it is loud! walls of this place are very thin! you also share the yard with another unit and they are in a residential neighborhood so not a lot of privacy! one small stain on the sheet in the master bedroom, overall very clean lots of dishes, good size bedrooms and perfect parking right out front!
