About this house rental

Beach Views and Close to National Park  
  This updated 5 bdr, 3 bth beach house is just across the street from the beach and a two-minute drive to Indiana Dunes National Park at West Beach.  
  Take a short walk to the peaceful, semi-secluded beach or take a stroll down the street to Marquette Park or one of the public beaches. The large park has much to offer year round. Enjoy bike trails, dune hiking, sledding, bbq shelters, frisbee golf, bootcamp, public beach, historical Aquatorium Bath House and Pavilion venues, kayaking and fishing on the lagoon, playground and concession stand with outdoor live music. The Aquatorium and Pavilion are perfect venues for weddings or large events.  
Miller Beach is centrally located and close to several casinos and minutes from Methodist, St. Mary’s, Community, Porter Regional and Franciscans Hospitals.

Miller Beach’s new fast track South Shore Train can get you to downtown Chicago in less than 60 minutes.

  The home’s main level features a large open concept kitchen, living room, dining area and a three seasons room. The modern eat-in kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals. Just bring food. Paper products, cleaning supplies, pots and pans, dinnerware, glassware, toaster, microwave, crockpot, spices and some food staple items are provided.  

  Just outside the kitchen, you’ll find the sunroom as well as a large rooftop deck for outdoor entertaining with a gas grill.

Just 4 steps down you will find a full bathroom, 2 queen bedrooms and the main bedroom with en-suite bathroom.

  The lower level has a queen bedroom,a double twin bedroom, a bathroom, laundry room and rec room to watch movies, dance or sleep. With a Smart TV, it’s the perfect place to hang out with friends and family. Or, chill out after a hot day at the beach. (Or snuggle up after a day of cross-country skiing, sledding and hiking through the dunes)  
  With 5 bedrooms, the house sleeps 10 guests comfortably in beds.  
 
All three bathrooms are stocked with clean towels, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap and hair dryer.

House Rules

You must be 27 years old to book a stay with us.

Parking. To avoid towing, please park in the designated spaces on our property only. There are 3 parallel spaces directly in the front of the house and 2 spaces in the back driveway. See parking diagram provided in your check-in information email.

Be tidy and respectful of the house, neighbors and property.

No heavy cooking or reheating of aromatic food (Curry,fish,etc) The kitchen is to be used for light cooking only and the preparation/cooking of strong aromatic foods is not allowed. The aroma is very difficult to rid of. Feel free to use the outdoor grill for cooking food with heavy spices.


“Sand Ain’t Dirt” This is a beach house. Expect to carry some sand in the house. For your own comfort (and our clean up) please take your shoes off and use the hose to rinse before entering the house. Going to bed after a few drinks with sandy feet is fun. Waking up sober in a sandy bed, not so much.

No smoking. We do not allow smoking in our house. (We don’t want to stink the place up or burn the place down) So, if that’s your thing, sand buckets are located in the driveway. Please do not throw cigarette butt on the ground or the beach.

No animals that either poop, pee, have hair, shed skin, eat, drink, get on furniture, have teeth or claws or make any type of noise are permitted any where on the property. All other pets are fine.

No parties or events. Registered guest letting loose with a few cocktails is encouraged. However, large parties with unregistered guests or events are not. Unregistered guests must be approved by the host prior to booking.

No glitter or balloons. They are hard to clean and bad for the environment.

We do not allow fireworks anywhere on our property, the street or the beach.

Please do not use the fireplaces. They are not functioning.

Please do not enter the closets that are marked as, “Private” or “Owner”.

Your safety matters. Outside security cameras are set up to prevent and protect the owners, neighbors and guests. The audio and video cameras are set up outfacing by the building entrances and parking locations.

Loud music. The majority of the neighbors are fun beach people (for the most part) But, please be considerate. Not everyone is on vacation. We have elderly neighbors who enjoy peace and quiet after 10pm. We have neighbors who work from home. And we have neighbors with small children. Please be respectful.

Please do not flush anything other than poop, pee, toilet paper, small dead goldfish,or puke in the toilet. (Hopefully not the latter) If the sewer system gets clogged, nobody will be happy.

Please clean the grill and turn off propane after cooking. It doesn’t have to be spotless, at least get the chunks of food off.

The thermostat is remotely set to a comfortable temperature. If you prefer something different or would like to turn it off and open the windows, feel free to contact us for adjustments. Please do not run the heat or air conditioning with the windows open. This could overload the system and cause it to lock up. Please close the windows if there is any risk of rain.

Beach chairs and beach towels are provided. Towels are in the linen closet. Chairs are stored in the garage. Please do not take the bath towels, sheets or blankets to the beach.

Plastic cups and paper plates are provided. Please do not take any dishes or glasses outside.

Alcohol is not permitted on our beaches. Be sure to hide your cocktails/beer in a solo cup or the patrolling beach cops may confiscate your cooler and give you a big fat RUDE fine.

We have a carry out policy for garbage on the beach. Take a garbage bag with you. Cigarettes are considered litter. Please throw out your butts. Drop your trash in a garbage bin when you leave the beach. Garbage bags are under the kitchen sink

If something breaks, please don’t try to fix it. (Sh#@ happens) Please call us. We will get someone there to fix it. If you leave it as a surprise for us later, you may lose your security deposit.

We feel that these rules are fair and hope that you agree with them prior to booking. Enjoy your stay.
