We enjoyed our stay at the house. The home was large enough for a our group of 7 adults and 2 children. The kitchen is spacious and was well-equipped. We enjoyed the expansive yard and outdoor seating areas. Mosquitoes were a bit of a problem. Make sure you take repellant and I also had packed three large citronella candles that helped a little. The only other negative was the clothes dryer that only dried on one setting and laundry took a very long time to dry. If you are planning on using the fire pit, you will need to provide your own firewood.

We hosted a Family Reunion in the area…house was great to sleep immediate family plus staging area for food prep.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the home in Beverly Shores. The house was great...clean and spacious. The kitchen was very well stocked. The grounds were beautiful, and the home was set back from the road for privacy. I would highly recommend this property, and would stay again. Mark was a gracious host and responded quickly to a couple of questions that I had. The area provided plenty to do for entertainment and restaurants.

This place was perfect for our group of 14! We all fit comfortably and everyone had a bed to sleep on. This place is perfect for those who want a relaxed weekend. We barely left the house at all and took full advantage of the backyard, hot tub, and fire pit! The outdoor area was so great we spent very little time inside. There was 4 full bathrooms which made it easy for everyone to get ready in a timely manner when we did have activities planned. Its a short and easy drive from Chicago and I would definitely go back!

A perfect property for a group of around 10-12 adults. Peaceful and private with ample parking and nice proximity to a variety of bars and activities. The property and house were clean and spacious and Mark was super responsive to any and all messages. Thanks for a great weekend!

Beautiful home and grounds we would go back.

Excellent service

We loved staying here! Super clean property with every amenity one could need.

perfect

We had a great stay at this beautiful home. Lots of entertainment on the premises and surrounding area. All the upgrades made this house an easy 5-star rating. Would definitely stay again. Dr Bart

We enjoyed the beautiful property!!!

A great place to stay for all ages. Well equipped with anything you would need. Owner is great to work with, quick to answer questions or help with needs.

This is a beautiful home and property. The owners are great to work with and respond quickly to questions and concerns. It’s a great place to have a family reunion!

We stayed here for our annual family vacation. It was perfect! The house is beautiful and spacious. We had 16 in our group and everyone loved it! The location is 1.4 miles to Lake Michigan with a nice little park on the way to the beach where we played tennis and pickle ball. We were under 5 miles from Michigan City with an outlet mall, some fantastic breweries and A Little Slice of Heaven! The kitchen was well equipped for our morning coffee drinkers and for cooking for our large group. While we ate most of our meals in, we did try the a couple breweries and both wood fired pizza trucks that set up at The Beach Shop only .35 miles away. The deck at the house had seating for all of us and the hot tub and fire pit were used frequently, as was the outdoor shower that kept us from tracking sand into the beautiful home. We will be back! If I could give it 6 stars, I would!

From start to finish this rental experience was easy & just what we were hoping for. Mark, the homeowner, was quick to reply with questions prior to the trip and thanks to their labeling and general preparedness I never needed to contact him during our stay. The home had it all. We were a group of 16 celebrating my father in law’s 80th birthday ... this spot was absolutely perfect for such a thing. The house was clean and comfortable - everyone had a place to go hangout when they needed a break from the crowd but the kitchen and dining and outdoor areas were perfect for when we all wanted to be together. The hot tub was a huge hit with my kids and the fire pit was perfect proximity for adults to hang, too, while they “swam” (it’s huge). The backyard & deck are very well kept and it’s a beautiful property! We were even greeted by two deer upon our arrival. The beds were very comfortable and we all had our own bathrooms which was great. Overall, this home and its hosts are very gracious ... I highly recommend you stay here if you’re thinking about it!! Also - we took advantage of the bikes and went to the beach one day - easy, 15 minute ride and very beautiful. Beverly Shores is really quite charming. We will definitely return! Thank you, Mark, for opening up your lovely home - you guys have done an amazing job with it!

Accommodated 15 women more than comfortably. Owner was amazing, very quick to respond and resolve.

Driving up the winding drive we were greeted with pines decorated with twinkle lights. Plenty of parking for several cars. House has a great layout for a large group. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a full bath. Downstairs there are two en-suite bedrooms with full baths and another full bath with area that has pull out couch. Well appointed kitchen is spacious and had everything we needed to cook several meals. Great large dining area as well. Easily worked for our group of 9. There are two living areas with TVs which gives separate spaces for adults and kids if needed. Beautiful grounds and view. Huge hot tub and nice fire pit area plus grill. I’m sure this property is even better in the summer with the amazing outdoor space. Owner was very responsive too!

Nice outdoor space. We enjoyed the huge hot tub and the fire pit area.

Wonderful property that was well appointed with everything you needed to enjoy inside or outside the home. The rooms were comfortable and all of the bathrooms were well finished. Clean and sanitized property with great outdoor spaces for relaxing. Close to surrounding hiking and other National Park sites. Highly recommended!

What a find. We loved this property! The layout of the house is great for a group. We had 12 year olds to 75 year olds on this trip and there was ample space for us all! The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were wonderful. The kitchen was really clean and had wonderful appliances. It was equipped with everything we needed from cooking to serving! We loved the outdoor areas. We gathered when we wanted to and escaped when needed. We used every bit of it. The fire pit was a hit for the kids. A perfect setting for s’mores and to tell stories next the woods. We loved the hot tub after a day at the beach. We used the grille almost every day. Only one side of the grille worked but that is all we needed. We could not figure a few things out so the owner, Mark, was quick to respond and then showed up to be of further assistance the next day! He answered every question we had. He had bikes, beach chairs and towels for us! The washer and dryer was helpful after a day at the beach. The only drawback was the wifi. It was not very strong. When you are in a place like that, who needs wifi, except we were there during the week and some of us were working:( All in all, we cannot wait to go back! Thank for for a fabulous time!

We rented this property for my 40th bday celebration and had a wonderful time. The house and property are beautiful and spacious, everyone really enjoyed their time. There were many comments from our group that we would absolutely stay at the house for our next visit.

This was a great property to celebrate my 40th bday with friends and family. The hot tub is huge and the deck and interior was perfect for our weekend. There were plenty of towels and cooking supplies to help us feel at home. The dunes are a quick drive away. Great spot in the forest!

Beautiful updated house with plenty of room for a large group. A short drive to a beautiful beach at the dunes lakeshore. Lovely outdoor setting with privacy and plenty of space for meals and relaxing.

Our group of 16 women had a wonderful time at this property for our girl's weekend. Kitchen is well equipped, the house is beautifully decorated and the grounds are stunning.

This was the perfect property for our group of 8, ranging in age from 9 to 93. The house is immaculately kept and modern. We cooked every night in the well-outfitted kitchen, made s’mores in the fire pit, and relaxed on the giant back deck. The owners are fabulous, make the space comfortable, and were instantly responsive for the one small issue we had. I strongly advise reading all the rules before booking... there are a lot of large groups that won’t be a great fit for this space due to the rules about outdoor noise. It wasn’t any issue at all for us. Also, be sure to pack heavy-duty bug spray as the home is right on the forest, and the in-home manual suggests hats during the day to ward off large insects that will dive at your head during daylight. Basically, the outdoor space is better after sunset. Lastly: the grocery options are limited in the immediate area... expect to drive 20 to 40 minutes, depending on how specialized your food needs are. All in all: for the right group, you won’t find a better large home on VRBO.

Marks home and property is absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful and well kept. Our family of eight adults and seven kids truly enjoyed our time there. We loved using the hot tub and sitting around the fire a couple of evenings. It was just a short drive to the beach. We had a wonderful family vacation.

Mark’s place was outstanding and I can’t stress how great of a host Mark was during our stay. He was available by phone for a couple of questions we had. The place is amazing and the yard beautiful. I 100% recommend this house!

Great property, everything is nice and new although the floor plan is a little odd.

Planned a weekend getaway with the guys and this house truly made the trip. It is located nearby most activities we were interested in (golf, casino, boating, etc.) and provided the perfect setup while hanging out and unwinding. There is nice backyard/deck with a grill, hot tub, and fire pit. Overall, it's a great place to stay.

This house worked great for our group. We enjoyed the outdoor amenities like the hottub and firepit. Mark was quick to respond to any questions that I asked and was able to reset the code remotely when the door wasn't opening. The grill hadn't been cleaned so that caused some issues for our first meal. There were a lot of rules and it seemed a bit excessive, but we still enjoyed ourselves. Also the layout of the kitchen makes it difficult for a group to cook together, but all in all it was well stocked. Great location for walking to the dunes, Century of Progress homes, taking the train or going into town
