Loved the screenwd porch for quiet nights listening to the sounds of the city and the summertime bugs. The farmer's market, along with a frw cute restaurants and shops were just a couple blocks away, so we walked down to a few places. Beach, outlet mall and plenty more restaurants were a very short 5-10 min drive away. Best of all, the house seemed very clean and cozy. Wpuld recommend for a stay in Michigan City! ##### Ellen H.

The house was clean and the art / house decor was so bright and cheerful. When we weren’t out exploring the neighborhood, national park, or Chicago this home was so comfortable to relax in , play family games, and cook together. The owner was easy to communicate with and the check in process easy peazy . The 4 beautiful beaches and Dunes we had a chance to visit were all located within 5-25 minutes away. The train station to Chicago is a few blocks away and so convenient. The Breweries nearby were nice as well. If you are visiting the Dunes or need to stay in town for another reason , I highly recommend this house. ##### Colleen L. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth L.

We were coming from Indianapolis, and the map took us through some rougher, looking parts of town. When we pulled up to the house, there were some boarded up homes around it. My initial thought was that I had made a huge mistake in booking this place. However, we immediately had the pleasure of meeting the owner, John, and we had a lovely conversation with him. It turns out that while many of the homes around are boarded up or in poor condition, people like John and Lisa, are planning to lovingly restore them. We met a lot of wonderful people in the area who clearly love Michigan City and are dedicated to making it the beautiful place at once was.The house itself was exceptional. It was beautifully decorated, and the layout was great for a family of four. I can honestly say this is the first VRBO that I would really want to come and stay at again.. The location near shops and restaurants can’t be beat, the home is immaculate, and John and Lisa are fantastic hosts. It was a vacation that my family will always happily remember! ##### Natalie D.

Even the landscape was well-appointed. The house was within walking distance of antique shopping, coffee and ice cream, and a wonderful Italian restaurant Cafe Farina's.

This trip was on the occasion of my mom's 75th birthday. I can't imagine better accommodations for the trip. All the amenities were there. As an added bonus, the magnolia trees were in full bloom in the lovely side yard. Our dogs love it here and the neighborhood is a nice & quiet place for walking them.

The house is about a block away from a lovely street with some shops and restaurants. The decor is wonderful, and the hosts were responsive quickly when we had a minor issue with one of the door locks. The neighborhood was a bit variable, some houses around are in pretty poor shape, but others seemed very nice like this one. Had no concerns really. There are tenants upstairs, but they were mostly quiet aside from some normal floor noises from above. Great stay, quick drive to beaches, the park, and even not a long trip to Chicago. None of the beaches were overcrowded. ##### Ryan W. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn S.

This artist inspired home was full of charm, color and personality. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable, dog friendly, and within walking distance to shops and restaurants. We especially loved the screened porch and the convenient, well landscaped fenced area outside. Everything was well thought through with much attention to detail. The kitchen was very well equipped - had everything needed and more to create great meals. There are even art supplies for painting and drawing. Best getaway ever! ##### Dawn S.

It's beautiful, well furnished and comfortable, walking distance to the beach and shops, and the private yard is perfect to relax, especially if you bring your furbaby. The screened in porch is great, and watching some of the people walking by was entertaining. The large beds are comfortable, and all rooms are air conditioned. During our week stay, we cooked a few meals inside, and we found literally every supply and utensil for cooking already there and in nice condition. This is true for the bath supplies as well..shampoos, hair conditioners, even Q-tips and feminine needs. We highly recommend staying here, and looking forward to our next visit. ##### Rick D.

Apr 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Really Cool House This is such a cool house for a small group. Great layout, comfortable furnishings, and well-stocked (and organized) kitchen. Owner communication is great. The neighborhood is hit-or-miss; lots of blight and you will hear traffic noise since the house faces a busy through street, but this quiets considerably at night. Nice, spacious yard for a dog or two. Be aware: the house has a tenant on the upper level whose dog barks often and often for long periods of time (for example, every morning between 8 AM and 10 AM). This got our dog, normally not a barker, to bark back which quickly became annoying. Nevertheless, we spent much time out of the house enjoying the surrounding area, from Lake Michigan to Elkhart (the Hall of Heroes museum is a must-see for comic book and superhero fans). ##### Bryan B.
