About this property

A beautiful four bedroom cottage in the heart of a resort community, making for a perfect summer dream vacation. Steps to the beautiful beach of Lake Michigan, a short walk to the park and the Michigan City zoo, don't miss the Thursday night concerns in the park (again, very walkable), ride your bike along the lake on Lake Shore Drive or walk or drive to the Blue Chip Casino. Don't forget cocktails at sunset on the beach or sit in the Adirondack chairs and watch the activity go by. You'll love this place.
Both bathrooms have been completely updated for the 2021 summer season
New Kitchen and appliances in 2022. The outside of the house is being repainted in the spring of 2023. A very cozy summer rental with all the upgrades of a new house.

Great beach house

We had a great time staying at this beach house. The house is comfortable, very clean and well maintained. The kitchen is well stocked for anyone who prefers to cook their own meals. Close to many good restaurants as well. The best part is the super short walk to one of the nicest beaches in the area!

Pretty much perfect for our "beach" weekend

This home is spacious enough to accommodate our family and friends, we absolutely love the location. This is our second year coming to Michigan City and this property was perfectly located for our needs. We spent a good amount of time at the beach and this place had it all! It was so awesome to have all the beach gear you could possibly need for a large family. Beach Chairs, coolers and more; really all we would need to bring is ice and your beverages of choice. Owner was very accommodating and attentive to all questions . We would totally recommend to rent this home.

Great Weekend Getaway

This is our 5th time to visit this area as we have grown to love Sheridan Beach and this neighborhood. This house did not disappoint! Plenty of room for my husband and me plus our four grown children (ages 16-24) and a couple of their friends. Everything you need is provided. We especially loved the beach chairs and towels - was nice to not have to pack those extras. Owner answered our questions right away and was very nice and helpful. Great locations - easy walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Stephen King

This has been a family home for over 30 years. It's a great get-a-way vacation home close to the beach with a lake view. During the 2020/21 off season both bathrooms have been completely remodeled, the kitchen was completely remodeled including new appliances during the 2022 season & the exterior is being repainted in the spring of 2023. You'll love this family home.

Why they chose this property

Once you've spent a beautiful weekend on this beach, you'll understand why you'll want to come back again and again. The fresh water of Lake Michigan and the beauty of the beach makes you feel like you are miles from home. It's incredibly relaxing, beautiful and fun.

What makes this property unique

It's hard to say if having coffee on the sun porch in the morning, looking at the lake or enjoying cocktails in the evening prior to dinner is more fun. Either way, you know that heading to the beach after coffee or going out to a local restaurant or cooking on the grill after cocktails is going to be enjoyable with friends and family.
