BEACHFRONT LAKE MICHIGAN w/Lookout Tower & Lake Views - Sleeps 13

Bedroom: 4 | Bathroom: 2 | Sleeps 13

When location is everything, you get everything right here when you stay "On the Beach"! Whether you are looking for a beach vacation for the whole family or a romantic beach getaway, the experience is sure to be extraordinary. Tucked into the dunes, this large beachfront property and desirable location cannot be beat. Just a short walk away from several exciting adventures, be sure to take advantage of the nearby public amenities including miles of nature and hiking trails through the Indiana Dunes National Park, along with biking trails on various turf. Seasonal water sports will keep you busy for days, from boating, jet ski and kayak rentals, to fishing charters and sunset cruises. Shopping, Casinos, unique shops and restaurants galore are just done the road.

Entering the main level, the front sitting room greets you with space to soak up the sun, enjoy a friendly game with the family or just simply relax. You will notice the perfect mix of new beach décor and the classic feel of this 1930s beachhouse house as original.

The fully stocked kitchen was designed to entertain, a chef’s paradise. Let the creativity in the kitchen expand to the farm style table in the adjacent dining room where your guests can gather together and swap stories over a home cooked meal. A place for generations to stay together, the main level features the sought after main level bedroom, complete with king bed plus, a full bath with walk in shower and detached tub to soak in which is spacious and bright. Appreciate the location as you gaze out the wall of windows in the living room, facing the lake with a breathtaking uninterrupted view.

Up a short flight of stairs leads you to the ultimate look-out room. This cozy tower space is perfect for looking out over the lake and enjoying the sounds of the beach.

Venture down to the garden level where you will find 3 spacious bedrooms and a ¾ bath. First bedroom is one the kids will adore with 4 twin beds, the next bedroom offers a plush Queen bed, and the last bedroom is the largest of them all with a Queen bed and couch, a suite of sorts.

Pack your strollers, coolers and beach gear as you are next to the easiest beach access in the area, the boardwalk to Sheridan Beach cuts through the dune making the trip to the shore a breeze, even for those in wheelchairs!

Plenty of room for everyone and well stocked. The views are amazing, and on a clear day you can see the Chicago skyline from the beach. We enjoyed the deer in the backyard with our morning coffee.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Good Location, Good Parking for the Area, we even parked on the GrassGreat Proximity to the BeachTower was a cool get away, my Neice actually slept on the couch one night.Kitchen was good size and worked well for our groupBedrooms downstairs worked for our guests.It would have been nice if there was a Deck in the back (Beachside) instead of the ground floor patio. Elevated vs Subterranean is Preffered The Floors in the Property has a lot of Elevation changes. My Mother in Law uses a Walker and even I found myself tripping over the Transition Strips and floor height changes. The place overall needs some TLC it's suffering from deferred Maintenance.The Place Worked for our Group and We did make a Lot of Family Memories there.

Lake Michigan beach house rental in Mich City, In

The beach house was great, the weather was perfect , and the beach was beautiful. The house provided everything needed plus extra beach chairs and a beach wagon. The wood/railed walkway to the beach was great and only wish it could have been a little longer . The perfect beach experience.

Wonderful Friend Reunion

This property was perfect for our old friends grade school reunion. The kitchen is nicely appointed and the large kitchen table made for nice group meals. We would have appreciated a functioning grill though. The location to the beach was great! No complaints about the beds/bedrooms. The home is very nice and we enjoyed our time there very much! Other than the lack of a functioning grill, a great stay!

Reviewer Comments: We came with the in laws and it was a very comfortable home to stay in with two sitting areas, a tv in almost every space, the bedrooms being far from the living space, and the kitchen that was very easy to use. The breathtaking views of Lake Michigan were the highlight. Our only hiccup was the WiFi, it was on and off working.

Great place for big family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 13 of our family members stay for 3 nights over the holidays. Everyone slept comfortably in this wonderful 1930s beach home. It had the charm of an older home, but don't think its not been tastefully updated. The kitchen and baths are very nice. The openness is also great! We could all hang out in the same front room, play games, do puzzles, read books, etc. Walks down to the beach were lovely. The wind off the lake was chilly, but if you bundled up, it was great!

Beautiful views

We had a nice stay. The views from the living room and the tower room were amazing and the access to the beach was also nice. There is a little noise from the walkway down to the beach but not terrible and they have done a nice job of creating some privacy on that side of the house. The house didn’t feel as clean as we would have preferred. There were bugs everywhere, both dead and alive. I am not squeamish about bugs but one of my friends who traveled with us is and was so bothered by the bugs that she chose to move upstairs and sleep on the futon. I would stay again but I wouldn’t take anyone who doesn’t like bugs!

Family Getaway 2023

It was a getaway before school started with my family and grandchildren!!! The home was large enough for the ten of us. The beach access was great. Even though the boardwalk was the public avenue alongside of the home, it wasn’t bothersome at all. The only disappointment was finding out that sheets were a bit sandy. Of course didn’t realize that til late when everyone was getting ready for bed so couldn’t get sheets changed. Too late to call. Next day called and taken care of with apologies. It didn’t hinder our stay whatsoever! With a Beach House expect sandy conditions🙃
