Enjoyed our stay

Good location in a quiet neighborhood from which to explore Indiana Dunes. Abayomi left some thoughtful items in the space for us, which was much appreciated. The only thing we needed which we didn't have was a microwave. Would stay here again.

5/5 Stars

I stayed at a 3-night vacation spot that was clean, well-organized, and looked exactly like the photos—100% accurate, right down to the deer looking up at me from across the creek. The host was super helpful and friendly, which made the stay even better. Peaceful, picturesque, and truly lived up to expectations. Highly recommend!
