Apr 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location by Indiana Dunes park We enjoyed the property. It’s nice to have a separate room for teenager. Our dog had a fence yard to roam around. The yard is small but just enough. Also, outside nice chairs and grill. It was clean and tidy. Very good place to stay. Highly recommended. ##### Marina B. Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Brad C. Dec 6, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Older but updated townhouse Overall, just what we expected based on the location in Chesterton. It worked really well for our needs! Some negatives though- there was no grill in the backyard so don’t count on grilling (tiny tiny box in closet that may have been a very small grill but if that’s it, it shouldn’t even be mentioned), there is no hot tub/spa which was very disappointing, the backyard was not maintained so we couldn’t use it, the few pans in the kitchen needed to be cleaned before we used them, and you may want to think about including more pots/pans and certainly things like a cookie sheet and plastic/nonbreakable cups. We ended up buying disposable cups and borrowed pans/cookie sheets from family that live in Chesterton. The rest of the townhouse was up to par and worked very well for our family! Very convenient for us and we will definitely look to stay here again the next time we’re in Chesterton. Thank you! ##### Brad C.
