Spacious home for travelers. Big discount for monthly renters.
This is a spacious three-bedroom home with a large backyard. It features high-speed internet and streaming TV.
Located across from Memorial Park Hall and scenic hiking trails. Walk to Friendship Botanical Gardens for strolls, concerts, and fishing. Beaches, restaurants, microbreweries, and a zoo are all just minutes away.
I have connections with Lake Michigan fishing charters. Travel 25 miles offshore to fish for salmon, trout, perch, and more.
The property was perfect for our needs. We liked quaintness of the older home. We found our bed very comfortable and loved that we could watch various streaming services on the TV.

Compared to the city apartment we have, the house and area are very beautiful and peaceful.We did have issues with the kitchen light fuse pop a couple of times. We also had a lot of issues with fruit flies and tied to control it with apple cider vinegar and dish soap. The electrical wires were also turning off and on the lights in the house.

This is a beautiful, old home with so much potential and set in a great location. Unfortunately, our stay was shortened as some of the pictures misrepresented the actual condition of the home. Ex. we passed the home the first time because the landscape was so overgrown, which was not the case in the picture. The mailbox was laying on the ground, so we missed the address. We did not have to use the lock pad because it was already unlocked and on the first full morning, the neighbor walked in the front door, holding a red snow shovel. The blind in the master bedroom was actually a bed sheet draped over the rod; there was very little water that came from the first-floor restroom sink. The washer and dryer were located downstairs, where there was a section of the bottom stair, missing and no string to turn the lightbulb on over them, lacked overall cleanliness, Paint was peeling from 2 of the bedroom ceilings and walls, switch plates were missing from outlets, in the family room one was not usable because it was too far in the wall to hold a plug. A long vine from outside the window of the dining room had grown through the windowsill and into the house. My family did not feel comfortable, and we received a partial refund and paid for a hotel for the remainder of our stay. The owner was open to my concerns and was easy to reach. Again, there is nothing wrong with old and this property could be amazing. It just needs some love and attention and for the neighbor to knock.

Lovely older home.
This was a lovely older home in a relatively quiet neighborhood but near lots of places of interest. The electric was out due to a storm when we arrived, but the host made some concessions to check out, which was wonderful. He was kind and attentive to our questions. We had a nice trip.

Under the impression that it was on the beach and it was actually 6 miles from the beach. Didn't mind the house itself but the location was horrible. On a street that is somewhat busy and you can hear everything going on outside. I listened to the neighbors have conversations while I was trying to sleep. Left a day early because my kids were not comfortable there.

Very Disappointed
Booked this property in July for two separate stays in October and December. The October stay, overall, was fine. It’s an older home & outdated, but we simply needed a place to sleep while we were attending a dog show in nearby LaPorte. Owner double-booked our December stay, claiming our paid booking “wasn’t on my calendar.” We were left to find last-minute accommodations in a hotel, resulting in another (almost) 150 in lodging costs. Owner said to “let me know” the price difference, leading me to believe he would cover our additional cost, (as double-booking was entirely his fault). Once I texted him the amount, he canceled my booking on VRBO and initiated refund only for the original booking amount, less a 59 fee for property damage insurance. Owner has ghosted me on all civilized communications through VRBO and texts to his phone number.. Very disappointed with lack of communication and follow-through. Will never book this property again, when I probably would have returned 3-4 times/year during the off-season to attend dog shows in nearby LaPorte. His loss on good renters that were respectful of his property and paid on time.

A Great weekend stay!
Really enjoyed staying here for a local event in LaPorte. Owner is great and provided excellent communication. The house is older and a little dated, but was perfectly fine for our needs. Two suggestions: 1. Add a bath mat in the tub - surface is a little slippery. 2. Hang hooks in the bathroom so that towels can be reused. Looking forward to our return visit in December. Thanks, Matt!.

Quick trip
The stay was good! The house is a bit older (and I’m guessing the smell that other reviews mentioned was that older home smell) but it was clean and no one from our family had any complaints. Having linens and towels included was great. I’d have no issue staying here again in the future.

Michigan City Vacation
This is an older home and has great character! The great things about our stay were: parking was great, trails, close to beach and all the city has to offer, plenty of things like paper towels, etc., house and furnishings were comfortable. The not great thing about the place is it is an older home and has some years visible but it was great for us. Thanks for everything Matthew!

Girls trip
The house was great for what we needed. We are a group of mom's being away for a few days. We needed a place to sleep, snack, and gab. The beds were comfortable, the love seats in the sun room were comfy for morning chats, the coffee maker worked and the fridge kept the food cold!
We had all we needed and had a great getaway. Previous reviews had mentioned cleanliness, and we had no issues there. We could have used a few extra garbage bags, as there were none in the bathrooms and only one in the kitchen. We brought our own coffee pods as a previous review mentioned that the coffee maker is only a single serve pod machine. We put that thing through it's paces! We might have struggled if we wanted to cook meals as there weren't a ton of pots and pans and cooking utensils, but we didn't need any of that for our stay.

Okay for a couple of days
We traveled about 3 hours from Wisconsin to see my niece graduate high school. We stayed in the house - myself, my sister and my mom who is 80. I should have read the description better, I thought one of the bedrooms was on the main level of the house. The main bathroom with shower was upstairs. The stairs were solid with a good railing, so mom did okay. I think this might be more my mistake than the description, but a small challenge. The house has a bunch of improvements/renovation work but it was not as clean as I would have liked... it could have used a good vaccum or sweep and mop. No sharp knives to cut an apple in the kitchen and the coffee maker was a single cup kurig type. I brought coffee for a drip coffee maker so that got a little tricky. Overall, not a bad place to stay, but could be really special if it had a bit more cleaning and finished renovations.

Professional cleaning services would be a valuable investment for the upkeep of their older house with lots of potential. The kitchen could be improved by having a supply of basic supplies.

Not charming
The outside picture of house is not accurate. The front is so over grown with bushes and weeds, barely see front of house. Not 2 bathrooms, 1 and a half. Firepit looked like had not been used in years, weeds over grown it, couldn't find outside light to back yard.House dirty, kitchen stove, had to clean bathroom before using. Kitchen had few supplies, noisy at night, trains all night, cars going by all night. Everything in house old and dated. Bathroom was redone but dirty. Door to basement and outside would not stay closed and no curtains on kitchen windows and glass front door.Not worth the money we paid to rent.

Not as Pictured
The inside of the home did not look like the pictures on the website. The entire inside of the home smelled very badly of cigarette smoke. The furniture was old and torn and the floors throughout the home were dirty with various debris on the floors. The kitchen and bathrooms were not clean. Very disappointed and we had to leave after a few minutes due to health concerns. Also, the communication was not great - I had to write the owner the day before for key/lock info because he hadn't written me.

My family and I stayed one night here for an event. Getting into the house was simple and the location is great - short distance to the lake and to nearby preserves.
