    This home, not only decorated nostalgically, it is appointed that way. We felt like we stepped back in time for a week. We spent our days exploring the dunes and shoreline. Our family had everything we needed, and even more, with an age range of 1 to 84 years, including our furry friends. Our fur babies were well taken care of with toys and cozy beds. They absolutely loved the fenced yard! We enjoyed quiet mornings on the deck, sipping coffee, playing board games, watching VHS tapes, and roasting marshmallows over the fire pit. The hosts were attentive and accommodating. Highly recommend!!!

    This property was very well appointed. The beds were very comfortable, plenty of pillows, and comforters provided the right amount of warmth. The kitchen was well stocked with every appliance that we needed for cooking as well as dishes and silverware. The TV room downstairs was very comfortable and we enjoyed a movie night on the large couch. We brought our two chihuahuas along and they thoroughly enjoyed running around in the back yard and in the house. The available dog treats were a special addition. The house was very clean and the host was available if needed. Would highly recommend the property ! Quiet cute neighborhood close to the dunes.

    The host was very responsive and helpful! The house had 2 floors, and only the bottom level (basement) had a TV to share for all guests. Unfortunately, the bottom level was cold, and we didn't find any space heaters. It would have been great if there was a TV in the common room upstairs where it was warmer and gave access for any guests who are handicapped (unable to go downstairs). We also didn't use the shower downstairs because it was too cold. The bedrooms would have been nicer if there were black out curtains. Most curtains were sheer, so it wasn't very private, especially in the common room upstairs. Lastly, the washer needed major cleaning. My family relied on using the washer/dryer for clean clothes, but we found mold in the washer drum until after we used it. We had 6 guests, and 4 of us got skin rashes after wearing the washed clothes. Otherwise, the beds were comfortable, and we stayed warm wearing layers since we were limited to 75 house temperature. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast and eat our meals.

    Long weekend trip with our 5 year old grandson and our lab to explore Dunes National Park. Location was close to the lake and park trails. The house had everything we needed and then some! The best dog friendly home we have ever stayed in! The host had lots of treats, toys and dog beds. Our grandson loved all of the games. Beds were very comfortable. Backyard was great for the dog too. Everything was spotless. Very nice MCM home!

    This house is very clean with great gathering spaces for our group of 6 adults and one child. The location was perfect for exploring Indiana Dunes NP.

    Loved the Miller Beach property, it had everything we needed and more.This home is very spacious and has lots of comfortable gathering areas, inside and outIt was more than enough room for our group of 4 adults, 1 child and 1 dog. They have thought of everything! Beautiful beach and Lake Michigan within walking distance. Two restaurants within walking distance, lots of games and activities for inside and out. We really appreciated all of the beach chairs, umbrella and wagon. Honestly, they have thought of everything you would possibly need for a fabulous vacation.We loved it

    Two families came together with 4 adults, 3 kids, and 2 dogs. We were shocked at how spacious the house is and how many thoughtful extras it contained. To begin with, there was more than enough comfortable space for all of the people and dogs in our group. We had ample space to spend time together indoor and outdoor. The dogs were welcomed with SO many toys, dog bowls, and a massive fenced in yard. There was no worry about running out of any soaps, paper towels, or anything of that sort. We walked to 2 beaches and had coolers, chairs, wagon...all available to use. The stay could not have been more comfortable and easy. I highly recommend anyone to stay here! Thanks for an amazing time!
