About this property

This beautiful house is located near Lake Michigan in Northwest Indiana, less than 10 minutes from the expressway and toll road. There is a stainless steel kitchen, spa bathroom, finished basement and bar with sleeping capacity to accommodate two families. This is a smart home with Ring db, lights and thermostat controlled by your voice. We are less than an hour drive from downtown Chicago, and there are many great beaches nearby. Shopping and great dining options are also within a close drive.

This is a very safe neighborhood with lots of friendly people around. Easy access to Central Ave. which will get you quickly to restaurants, shopping and the highway.

NO PARTIES, or large gatherings of any type. Confetti of any type is not allowed on the premises-interior and exterior. I like my neighbors and they like me. Please only smoke outside, either on the deck or out back/front. SMOKING in the house will automatically get you a NEGATIVE REVIEW. No firearms allowed on premises. No Pets.
**We have a Ring doorbell installed outside on the front door, so please be truthful about how many people are staying because you will be charged after your stay***

Great stay!! Group of 7!

We had a wonderful stay - beds are comfortable, house is furnished and appointed well. The home has great character, right down to the one-of-a-kind furnishings. Home was clean, spacious and the kitchen was stocked with essentials - far better than most rentals. We would definitely stay at Robert's home again on duture trips.

Great Spot!

The property was clean, spacious, and in a great area central to many attractions including the Dunes! Neighborhood felt extremely safe! There was 8 of us total (4 kids, 4 adults) and we never felt cramped. Robert was wonderful to work with. Would stay here again!
