We enjoyed our time at the Funky Flamingo. The unit was clean, well stocked and we had all the information we needed prior to arrival. There were many restaurants within walking distance. The beach is a short drive and there are numerous breweries within the area.

The actual place was clean and very cute.The surrounding neighborhood seems a bit sketchy. We had a random stranger knocking on the door and drove off from the alley next to us…In the end we did not feel 100% safe and secure to sleep there so we left before the first day turned to night. We had 2 nights booked and left packed up within the first 2 hours….unfortunately we got no money back at all. I would have liked at least 1 night back.

Everything about the property was fantastic, the location, the cleanliness, access to the outlet mall and the beaches, we had a wonderful time there!It's a cozy little patio on the back to have your morning tea or coffee and to read the Bible. I highly recommend the funky flamingo. It's not a large place but it's very homey.

Great, clean property! Used this cottage for our sleeping spot as we were in town for a wedding. The owners let us check in early and were extra accommodating with our situation. It is so cute and we would love to stay there again. For some reason on my VRBO web browser, I was not able to see that there was a limit to pets/size, so just be aware that it is pet friendly, but only allows one small dog! :)

Visiting the park

My husband and I stayed here for our visit to the National Park. It was simple and easy to get to with lots of places located near by. We really enjoyed the outlet mall across the street and the Lakeshore cafe coffee spot, both walking distance from the rental home. Only main drawback was that I would have preferred a covered parking space but definitely not a deal breaker. We enjoyed our time at Indiana Dunes National Park and were able to come back to this rental and relax anytime.

The cottage itself was nice, aside from a few issues that were promptly addressed. The surrounding area was not great and it’s on a busy street so lots of nighttime traffic.

A Great Stay at The Funky Flamingo!

We had a wonderful stay at The Funky Flamingo! The home was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated with a fun, welcoming vibe. The location was perfect, within walking distance to the local restaurants, and shops. Communication with the host was smooth, and they were incredibly helpful throughout. Our stay. all in all, it was a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

Was a comfy cozy spot to sit, relax, and just talk. The pull out couch was very comfortable. The most comfortable i have ever slept on. The fireplace was beautiful and functional. It gave off heat or just soft light. We drove to the outlet mall and 2 farmers markets. We had an amazing mother daughters weekend and will definitely come back again.

Cozy place, shopping next door, dunes short drive away

We had a great getaway long weekend! It was perfect for my wife and I. She goes on vacation to do "nothing", and I go on vacation to DO stuff. So while she watched a movie and read a book, I went and ran the trails at Indiana Dunes! There was shopping right across the street! Also, DO NOT leave food laying around...there are little sand ants that will find your food!!!

Great Getaway

No issues. Owner provides various necessities in case they are needed. The kids loved counting all the flamingos on the property. :) The bed was pretty uncomfortable for us, but that is personal preference. The pull out is pretty small. I would say that it sleeps 4 is pushing it a little. We had a great stay though. The property is well maintained and up to date.
