Wonderful stay!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. It was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The beds in particular made for the best sleep I have had in a long time.

Great location, great pricing.
My family, friends, and I stayed for the weekend, and we found the place to be very clean and peaceful. We truly enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately, my daughter became ill, and although we tried our best to clean up, it seems that some of the mess was still noticeable. The property owners informed us of this, and I offered to pay a cleanup fee, but I haven't received any response. I hope everything is okay. If the opportunity arises (though I understand it may be unlikely), we would love to stay again..

Very Nice
The location is in a wooded neighborhood giving it some privacy, which was nice. The backyard was large enough for kids activities and the outdoor jacuzzi was very relaxing. Karaoke was a highlight of the evening! The beds were comfortable and kitchen spacious enough for several cooks. I had numerous questions for the host and they were answered in a timely manner. We would stay here again.

The stay
Your house is absolutely stunning. I would say the only thing that I would suggest would be the carrying a toaster lol other than that everything was 100%. We will stay again for sure. Thank you.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
This property ticked all of the boxes: clean, modern, extra amenities like a hot tub and karaoke, an awesome shower, quiet area and very close to the beach. Mr Ward was a very gracious host. He was always available for any questions we had patiently answered all of them. We are definitely going to make this our special summer spot every year! I highly recommend this property.

Lovely house
One of the things that we liked the most is that it was close to pretty much everywhere we needed to visit. Indiana Dunes park is just a few minutes away. Marquette Park among other places was one location we couldn't miss on this trip. The house is very spacious and well-designed. We loved in particular the open concept. If we go back to Gary, IN we would love to stay there again.
