Summary: Our dog had a great time! Close to dunes and nice yard for dogs.
Sarah W. Jun 9, 2025 04:11:31 AM
Summary: Our stay was a weekend family trip- our first trip traveling with our pups. It’s not easy to find a place that will allow two large Labradors but this house was perfect! The dogs loved the large fenced yard and all the places to chill inside, and we appreciated the little details (the guestbook photo wall was adorable).This location was easy access to hiking and beach time in the state and national park while still having the quiet of a neighborhood. We loved visiting the farmers market and restaurants in downtown Chesterton and could easily hop over to Valparaiso and Michigan City for a little more nightlife (while knowing the pups were safe in a comfy space).

Summary: Me and my significant other wanted a nice little getaway from life. Being only 20 years old it’s so hard to find that. I’m so glad we were able to book. We didn’t bring our fur baby but if we did she would have loved it and the house kept us thinking of her. The location is perfect your 5-10 minutes from the store and the dunes and beach. We were able to zip from the house to the beach to back home to eat and everything being so close made doing things less of a hassle. The host responded very timely with us and made sure we were comfortable and able to get ahold of them if we needed. The house was also very clean and cozy!!

Summary: The house is designed with dogs in mind, the fenced-in yard was so handy for 6am bathroom trips. Attached garage and thoughtful patio layout were also nice touches. House was clean, well provisioned and amazingly quiet while being close to major roads, stores and restaurants.

Summary: Perfect location around 10 minutes or less to both Dunes parks, restaurants, and retail. Great little house for a couple or small family and their pet. Quiet, safe, well maintained neighborhood.

Summary: Knowing we were going to have an 80-pound chocolate lab with us, we opted to spend a little more on this property vs. other “pet-friendly” properties in the area because it truly seemed like it welcomed pets. It was a good move. The house and property were clean with little extras to ensure our Coconut was comfortable, too. We really appreciated Andrew’s link to some local recommendations, which helped us start our vacation on the right foot exploring some local favorites. From there, the locals were all very kind, welcoming and willing to share other places to try. It was an easy drive to the national and state parks, as well as some other hikes. We didn’t even have a chance to get down to Valparaiso, but did get over to South Bend for part of a day (be sure to note the jump into the eastern time zone if you have something planned for a certain time!). Overall, it was a great vacation and we highly recommend this property, even if you don’t have a dog. I didn’t notice any dog hair when we checked-in and it seemed very clean, so it should still be a solid choice, even if you don’t have a pet. Thanks!
