This cabin has the best view of Lake Michigan and the Chicago Skyline, inside and outside. This delightfully open cabin with two bedrooms and a perfect view of Porter Beach and Lake Michigan is nestled in the Indiana Dunes and just 53 steps away from magnificent Lake Michigan. The only thing between you and the lake is 53 stairs and a lovely sand beach. There is sleeping for 4 currently but the couch can be used. Ample seating in the living area includes dining room chairs and living room sofa with spinning chairs. The dining room table can be expanded to meet 9 persons dining needs or the leaves can be easily hidden away for a more intimate dining experience. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped with a full size refrigerator, stove/oven, microwave, toaster, Kuerig cup coffee maker, and Central Air (Furnace/Air Conditioning). All linens (bath towels, hand towels, wash clothes and dish towels, bedding) are provided. There is a full wrap around deck with chairs and a Weber propane gas grill. The beach is a public beach, about a half mile from the main Dunes State Park Beach, we have beach toys for children of all ages, footballs, spike ball, soccer balls and other beach games. This is the top level of a 2 story cabin with 2 parking spaces. Should you want to venture beyond the beach numerous nearby attractions include Chesterton European Market (Saturdays), hiking, biking, dining, breweries, shopping, museums, art galleries, an arboretum, golfing, waterpark, farmers markets, live theatre, movie theatres, skating, bowling and much more.

Amazing view of Lake Michigan
As soon as I walked in the door, I saw the wall of windows that look out to Lake Michigan. It was amazing. The house is lovely - clean and nicely decorated. The hosts are friendly and were readily accessible to answer questions. I highly recommend this property and will definitely go back another time.

Wonderful Stay
This was the perfect spot for our family to spend spring break. The proximity to the beach was perfect, and the view from the deck was breathtaking. The house itself was clean and had everything we needed. My kids are already asking when we can go back - and we certainly will!

Beautiful house
The house was beautiful with awesome view. It was clean and well stocked. The beach was easily accessible but we couldn’t go because it was very cold and windy. Had a great stay with family. Owner was very helpful.
