The home was very well stocked with dishes, cookware, beach supplies, etc. The homeowner was very quick to respond whenever I had a question. I highly recommend this property! ##### Joanne Y.

It is walkable to the beach, which was very enjoyable. We also used this location as a place to spend some time in Chicago as well (about an hour drive). The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals and the grill outside was handy. We even spotted some deer while out back. The host is very responsive - the air was not working very well and the upstairs room was quite warm. I let her know and she sent fans via Instacart that night. My kids greatly appreciated those! We had a great visit. Thank you. ##### Sara D. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Christine G.

Most everything looked clean but floors were dirty when we wiped a spot up which a rag so could tell they hadn't been really cleaned well in a while. Cleaning service should be monitored. Host had toys, beach bags in each room to use, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and some basic kitchen items. Bring your own shampoo and body wash or bars of soap. ##### Christine G.

Jul 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great week This place is way more than a 4 but maybe not quite a 5 (4.8?). We had a couple small issues but very happy with the home. The best part is the layout. Easy for many adults to be cooking, eating, talking at the same time. Second best thing is the upstairs. Perfect for teens and tweens. I know they stayed up a lot later than us but we never heard them. Nice outdoor table and firepit. Comfy quiet beds. I'd say the walk to the beach would be easy for anyone 8 and up. The provided beach wagon was super useful and the beach is lovely and never very crowded. ##### Amy S.

Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fun times at Washington Park Beach on Lake MI Overall a great week. The walk to the beach is about a quarter mile and fairly flat. If you have a wagon, walk out via Louisiana Street, there is a better path over the sand. The beach was pleasantly nice and clean. Beautiful areas around to walk/hike. Lots of restaurants in Mich City or New Buffalo (10 min away). The house is new, clean and comfy. A/C works well. The grill was out of propane but Amanda took care of it quickly before dinner that night. We had a fire out back every night. Kids ranging from toddlers to 8yo had a blast at the beach and hiking the dunes. ##### Jacob K. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary W. Aug 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family vacation Michigan City Everyone loved this home. The layout was perfect for our needs with spacious open floor plan to enjoy meals and free time together. Master bedroom and bath are very nice. Other 2 bedrooms smaller but were fine for us although another room with king size bed would have been nice. A nice outdoor space which we enjoyed in the evenings with a fire in the fire-pit, making smores, chasing lightning bugs and watching the deer. The upstairs space was just what the 5 grandchildren needed with a spacious room to have their sleepover. It had a large rec room with foosball table and TV for those before bedtime movies. Plenty of room to store and play with toys they brought from home. Not to mention their own bathroom. The location to the lake was great. The home provided a wagon, umbrella, and beach chairs which we greatly appreciated. It was a nice walk to the beach but also easy to do a drop off and pickup. The neighborhood is beautiful and was peaceful during our stay. Our VRBO hostess was very accessible and helpful before & during our trip. The weather was unusually hot for couple days and nights. We had concern about upstairs air conditioning - I reached out to her and heard back quickly. She followed up by having someone out there to check the unit. Due to our home situation during our stay in Michigan City we were able to relax, enjoy exploring, playing at the Lake and making lots of memories. ##### Mary W.
