I felt like we were in a HGTV vacation show because the owners really had been intentional to provide everything that we could possibly need or want. My family was very comfortable and even thrilled to stay here. The setting is very serene and peaceful. The zip line in the back yard for the kids was a wonderful surprise! I enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen and beautiful appliances. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was very clean. The provided S’mores supplies was a huge hit with the kids. We enjoyed beautiful family time together in this beautiful house and hope to return soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place. House has been recently redone and is in great shape. Very comfortable and quiet AC. Zipline works as advertised and has a proper stop mechanism. Water issues in earlier reviews have been solved. Free pass do the Dunes state park was a great touch and the place is very close in driving time to the state park. Even the washer and dryer showed the attention to detail that made this a great place to stay. Decor and furniture is completely pleasant and matches pictures in listing.

Overall I was very pleased with my experience and would stay again. Pros: - Brand new kitchen and appliances, well equipped, that enabled me to forgo takeout and dining out during my stay - Great internet, which was super important for my remote work on Zoom and Teams calls - Master bedroom bed was new-is and super comfortable. I’ve stayed at many places in the past that overlook the importance of having high quality mattresses that are not worn out. Nobody slept in the other two bedrooms so I cannot comment on the quality of those beds - Separately controlled thermostats for the main house AC/heat and master bedroom. - Lots of independently controllable lighting in the main living room / dining room area - Long driveway at the end of a long dead-end road with plenty of property separating this house from neighbors, with lots of trees; very serene setting. - Cool, exposed brick interior in living room area gives the space a nice vibe - Enough basic supplies to last me a few weeks (paper towels, tp, dishwashing tabs, laundry tabs, hand soap, etc.) - Fairly short drive to downtown Chesterton, groceries, and the lakeshore. - House is equipped with a back up generator that runs on natural gas. This was a huge, unexpected bonus as a storm blew through one of the first nights and knocked out power for may hours. The generator kicked in almost instantaneously and at first I didn’t know what was going on because the power only went off for a few seconds. This was huge for me because I was working on a time sensitive project and would have been in trouble if I had been stuck in the dark with no internet. - Nice covered front porch with small table and chairs, making it easier to get in and out when raining and pleasant to sit out in, rain or shine. - Nice patio with table, chairs and an umbrella in the back that I didn’t use but would have like to! - Friendly neighbor who takes care of the yard was kind enough to introduce himself. Nice to know someone next door is keeping an eye on the place. Cons: - THE WATER STINKS. Literally smells like strong sulfur/ rotten eggs. It is well water and it is probably safe to drink and bathe, but not too pleasant. Fortunately, the fridge has built in filtered water with a new filter, which I used for everything - making coffee, cooking and rinsing in the bathroom. Showering in the water and it’s rather unpleasant - even for someone like me that does not have a strong sense of smell.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home was very clean and comfortable and set in a beautifully wooded lot, close to many activities. For people who are light sleepers, the freight train horn every 10 minutes throughout the weeknight made it difficult to fall asleep, even with the windows closed. The expressway traffic can also be heard when outdoors. I would recommend this home to a friend.
