Cozy setting in the woods. Staff is a little stern. Had to prove our hotels.com price vs. their price for quite a while. No late check out!!!! Is how we told.

We only stayed 4 hours then was refunded our money when we found pieces of clear plastic in the whirlpool tub that after 40 minutes was still not full enough to turn in the jets. Found out they had spend 4 days fixing this room after last person trashed it. No shower curtain had to go get one from them. Light slash exhaust fan in bathroom was very noisey like something was broke inside of it. Room had very bad lighting had to use flash light to see all the floating plastic in the tub. Was aa clam as i could be when i demanded the redund off our money.

We stay in this area frequently and have always stayed in chain hotels This will be our choice in the future. Very quiet, exceptionally clean, very helpful at the front desk, reasonably priced.

Nice little place off the beaten path yet right by the highway. I could nitpick about the small little things showing age but it was clean, comfortable, and affordable so we were happy and would stay again
4.0 / 10.0
Very nice place to stay. The only reason i didn't give 5 star, and I'm sure others probably thought the same, but there's no elevator as far as i know. Carrying everything was a little hard for me. The other was, maybe there is a reason, there were no chairs to sit on the balcony to enjoy the view. Other than that, i appreciate the comfortable place you made for us to stay after a long drive. Thank you. The housekeepers are awesome.

A great check-in on the afternoon of November 2nd, during which we were told by our friendly host at the counter that we could check out 1/2 an hour later than normal. This offer came after we told him that we were repeat customers and very much enjoyed the location. We asked if there would be a charge, to which he said no.
Fast forward to the next morning, and as we were packing and getting ready to leave (now 10 minutes after the normal check-out time), there is a knock at the door prodding us to leave. My fiancé explains what we were told the night before but it makes no difference, apparently. 5 minutes later and there is another knock, during which my fiancé explains AGAIN why we were not out yet... except this time we are rudely told that the host from yesterday apparently had "no power to offer what he did".
Even if true, how on earth would WE be expected to know that? Instead of recognizing the importance of leaving your paying customers feeling like they are appreciated... (for example- "sorry for the misunderstanding- in the future, please know our check-out time can't be altered" we get an extremely cold brush-off.
Turning in my room keys, I get an extremely terse "thank you" and no eye contact from this same lady. We've given this place well over $1500 worth of business over the years and overlooked the often less than ideal room conditions. Over a petty matter of a few minutes you've just pushed us to your local competition. Unbelievably DUMB!

It was amazing!! The room so cozy and clean!! We loved this hotel I would highly recommend! Breakfast was your typical hotel breakfast but it was decent and we were glad they provided it. The pool was a nice addition.

Hotel only 2 miles from Indiana Dunes NP Visitor Center. Easy access to hiking trails, wonderful beaches, and restaurants. Large sized rooms, indoor pool, and breakfast to start your day. Very affordable and great location.
5.0 / 10.0
Very cute hotel. Nice view of the woods. Very nice staff. Clean room. The jacuzzi in room was very nice the tip was even big enough for my tall husband to stretch out in.
Great location for hiking and shopping. The only thing that could use improvement was the blanket was thin and scratchy. Would stay here again for sure but would bring my own blanket.

We had a very nice stay at Spring House Inn. Overall the room was comfortable, although our room when we arrived was an Arctic blast . . . the A/C was set at 61 degrees! We had a lovely view into the woods and enjoyed the morning breakfast. Great location to explore the Sand Dunes National Park and nearby towns.

Hotel is located in trees and exterior is cutesy rustic. Room was modern with sofa, chair, desk, fridge, microwave and king bed. Everything worked and was clean. reception desk was very friendly. Felt very safe staying there. Not what I expected for a reasonably priced hotel between Gary and Michigan City. Would go out of my way to stay there again.

Relaxing place to stay when visiting the nearby dunes. A throwback, like traveling back in time.
4.0 / 10.0
It's a great place if you want to relax and get away without being out of the way. Still close to the expressway where you can pick from so many places to go and enjoy yourself. I would recommend it more for at least a weekend getaway or a couple days stay. We only stayed one night so we'll be back and explore the area. Bring some chairs for the balcony because for some reason they have nowhere to sit. Be prepared for stairs, there's no elevator unfortunately. Also, Uno is on the property but they have crappy hours and should at least be open later for the weekends and probably try to open for lunch. You'd think they'd want to work with the hotel to be more convenient for the guests there, especially since they're on the same property.

Great little overnight stay. This is an older place, but pretty well kept (quaint). Some folks would say dated, but I say it has character. Not far from the national and state park. Pretty close to the city for dinning options. Would stay again.

Enjoyed using the hot tub but the rooms are too musty/dated. Need to better air them out during cleaning or check A/C units for mildew

Unexpected gem. View from room into trees was beautiful. We loved the fire pit area with porch swings. Very convenient to Indiana Dunes NP. The room was spacious and comfortable.

No accommodations for seniors. No elevator for rooms on various levels. Lighting is very poor in hallways and in rooms. We had a fall in the stairwell with a mild injury, but it could have been much worse! Very little electronic access for commonly used devices, such as iPads, cell phones, etc. this is a beautiful setting and a nice theme, but is in need of some serious updating!! It does not live up to the benefits and description as presented in the advertisement online with Hotels.com

A lodge-type inn in a woodsy peaceful setting. Friendly, efficient reception. Large airy lobby with fireplace and lots of seating for breakfast or just sitting. Our room was spacious, with restful low light and a deck. Nice coin laundry for guests. Italian restaurant right next door.

We loved our stay at the Spring House Inn. It is an older hotel, but that is what we enjoyed. The rooms are large and comfortable. We loved the Inn setting in the woods. It was very relaxing and will definitely stay here again. Very convenient to the Dunes and Lake Michigan.

Great stay. Clean room and quiet area. Loved the woods in the back.
Also loved having the bar and restaurant next door.
We stayed with our 8 month old daughter and room was plenty big for her pack and play.

Inn has a nice antique style and the area is beautiful. The room had a spa tub in it that was excellent. Unfortunately a lot of flies were constantly coming into the room even with all of the doors shut (silverfish in the bathroom too). The gentleman working the front desk the first night sincerely apologized and did his best to accomodate us for this. However the staff member at checkout the following morning was completely rude and didn't believe me when I brought it up! I'm giving 3 stars and not 2 or 1 because we still enjoyed our stay and the gentleman at the counter the first night was really nice.

Staff was extremely pleasant and it was clean.
But this property seriously needs updated. The door to our room didn't always close or latch. Wallpaper was falling off in the bathroom and the internet was really slow. .

Nice pool, but the walls were peeling. Fairly good breakfast, but no decaf coffee was available.
2.0 / 10.0
The hotel was old and dated and in generally poor condition. My back door going to the outside would NOT CLOSE. we slept with a chair propped under the door because we didn’t discover it until we were ready for bed. When we reported it upon checkout, we found out they KNEW the door was damaged but put us in there anyway!! The breakfast was very sad. We feel very misled by descriptions and reviews.
6.0 / 10.0
The things we liked about this hotel are the location and the breakfast was very good. Otherwise it wasn't horrible by any means but we would not return. The hotel is very outdated which would be ok and quaint - except there is carpet in the rooms and hallways and for whatever reason there were air fresheners so strong in the rooms and hallways that it nearly was not tolerable. I'm not sure why or if there is another problem they are covering up.... But that was really a deal breaker for us. We went ahead and stayed the 2 nights but we were glad to leave to be honest. The lobby area and breakfast areas are very nice and if they could just copy that format for the rooms it would be a really nice place - but the air fresheners were just so strong it kind of ruined it for us.

The grounds were being redone to add a basketball court and a pickle ball court. The staff was friendly and helpful.
