Ideal space for family outing

My husband, young daughter and mother-in-law stayed here while visiting Indiana Dunes, and we had a wonderful experience. We brought our bikes and loved biking on the paths throughout the area to the dunes and other places. Chesterton is an awesome town, and the property was clean, nice and had everything we could have needed. It was awesome to have full access to the garage to store our bikes and to come and go with them.

Very nice and well appointed unit. It’s the basement of a single family home, but it has a separate entrance so it’s very private. Our hosts, Reg and LaJewel, were away while we were there but they were very communicative before and after our arrival to ensure we had everything we needed. They even let us use their garage which was greatly appreciated. The location was very convenient for a beach day at Indiana Dunes Park (with traffic, it was about a 15 min drive). Great stay!

Great!

Property is just as listed. Very clean, attention to details and warm home touches. Loved that we could make breakfast there with the waffle maker and mix! ❤️ the owners gave us great directions on check in and check out. Would have loved to meet them but never saw them. Felt like we were the only ones there! Highly recommend this place for your northern IN stay! Very close to the dunes and sweet little towns.

NP trips

Spent a few days at Indiana Dunes NP with our 2 grandsons, ages 10 & 15. This apt was an excellent location to all of the park and local amenities. Quiet, peaceful neighborhood. Comfortable, clean apt with all that one needs-stocked kitchen appliances, towels, extra blankets, cushions for sleeping on floor, soap & shampoo, even beverages for purchase. Had a great time!

Weekend with Friends

We spent a long weekend to explore the Dunes area. This location is a full two bedroom apartment in the lower level of the owners home. The neighborhood is very quiet and the home is very well cared for. The hosts went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We were even allowed to park our car in the garage. The apartment was very comfortable and feels like home. We would definitely stay with Reggie & LaJewell again! Thank You!

Weekend stay

If you are considering this property to stay at and choose not to, you are making a huge mistake! The apartment is in the lower level of a lovely home in a quiet residential neighborhood. They allowed for one car in the garage. The decor is modern and tasteful and beds extremely comfortable. There is a fully equipped kitchen with more than anyone could possibly need. The linens were hotel quality and the towels soft and thick. We never saw the owners but they texted us to make sure all was well - and it was! They even put up a Christmas tree for us. Nice touch! Thanks for a great holiday stay. Maybe we will see you again next year if Christmas is in Valpo.

Great location to access the region!

This was a very comfortable and well appointed private basement apartment. It is furnished and decorated like home with really comfortable but classy furnishings. The kitchen is very well equipped, and you could prepare all meals here during your stay… but you don’t have to because there are several great restaurants within a few miles. There is a great gas fireplace that is easy to use and makes the basement apartment feel even more cozy. The only thing I would say as a word of caution: this is a basement apartment and the entrance is private, but you do need to walk down 4 cement steps to access the door. These are in the garage so I e and snow are not a problem but if you or someone in your party has mobility concerns, this might not be the place for you. Also since it is a downstairs unit you do hear the host family upstairs, but we barely heard them at all. I highly recommend this place!

Everything we needed!

Due to a flooded basement I needed a place for my two granddaughters and I while mom and dad worked and managed the cleanup (without hot water, washer, dryer or air conditioning)! This kid friendly property was just what we needed. The owner was more than responsive, anticipating many or our needs! Huge tv’s in family room and both bedrooms kept the kids and Nana happy. Full size washer and dryer were kept busy even cleaning items caught up in flood waters. Kitchen well stocked for cooking needs and even had a selection of wines available for cash purchase. Although our stay was during the COVID 19 pandemic we were still able to get out and enjoy the sidewalk lined neighborhood and beautiful paved trails just next door! Only minutes from Indiana Dunes State and National Parks. Were able to enjoy two socially distanced visits to the shore of Lake Michigan. Not a golfer, but there appeared to be a few golf courses in the area as well. I’d recommend this property to anyone wanting a comfortable home base from which to explore Northwest Indiana. Thanks again to Reg and Jewel for taking such good care of us!

Perfect in every way

The owner was great at communicating in advance about the space, amenities and area dining options. We were wowed from the start by having access to park in their garage. That’s a first for us. They provided a digital key code so we could come and go as we pleased. The home is newer construction in a quiet neighborhood. When you first enter the space it is open and spacious with attractive design elements. The table was set with table cloth and place settings that made it feel especially welcoming. We’d shared in advance that this was our anniversary trip and the owner had a complimentary bottle of wine on ice waiting for us. That was another wow moment! It is a tri-level and the rental area is in the lower level, converted to a separate entry, with two bedrooms, full kitchen, full bath, living and dining areas. Even though it’s in a lower level it’s well lit with large windows throughout. The bedrooms and bath are all large. The bedrooms are carpeted and the main kitchen and living spaces are plank flooring. Everything is modern and contemporary. The kitchen had plenty of counter space and was reasonably stocked with cooking implements. There is a Keurig style coffee maker (Hamilton Beach brand) that also makes full pots of coffee if preferred. They provided a variety of coffee pods as well. There were also small creamer containers, tea, honey and sweeteners provided. There were large screen tvs in each bedroom and the living area. There is a gas fireplace that turns on instantly and was fun to enjoy sitting on the hearth. Bedding and towels were provided. The owner family resides upstairs but our stay was quiet, and aside from friendly interactions through the VRBO app we never saw or spoke to them in person. We came to the area to visit the Indiana Dunes national park. It was just 9 minutes to the visitor center. The park was beautiful and had many points of interest to see over our two day stay. From one point on the beach you could just make out the city of Chicago on the distant horizon, but the sandy beach was just like being at the ocean, complete with low surf like you might see on the Gulf coast. We ate at a local restaurant called Lucrezia Cafe run by an award winning chef. Amazing! The weather in September was warm and we ate on a brick patio under shade trees wrapped in lights in the charming town of Chesterton. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay. Highly recommended!

Missing hot tu

Upon arrival, neighborhood was nice and check in easy. We were looking for a property with a hot tub which was listed as an amenity in the vrbo listing. Upon arrival we found out there was not a hot tub, very disappointed. However the property was very clean and the owner was very responsive to messages.
