The Space
Our apartment is located in our downtown commercial building a short walk to all the downtown activities, parks, dining, shops, taverns brewery, winery, and European market. It is only 3 miles from the sand beaches on Lake Michigan at the Indiana Dunes State Park and the hiking trails of the Duens State Park and Dunes National Park. We are 1 hour from Chicago and South Bend.

The apartment has an entry, living room, dining, kitchen, large bedroom, and bathroom with shower. The living room has an L shape couch that can sleep two. There is plenty of room on the floor in the living room or bedroom to throw an air mattress or sleeping mats if you need to sleep a total of 6.

Please be aware the layout is that of a New Orleans style apartment. That means that there is no hallway. It flows from entry to living to dining to kitchen to bedroom to bathroom. One has to walk through bedroom to get to bathroom.

The living room has a 58" smart Roku tv and extra pillows and blankets for anyone to sleep on the couch.

The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, cookware, dishware, glassware, and silverware. It has a stove, microwave, full size frig, Kuerig, tea pot, and toaster. Kuerig pods provided too.

The large bedroom has a walkin closet, queen bed, makeup counter, another large smart tv, and a large jet tub with fireplace.

Wifi throughout. Glider and gas grill are outside the front door. There is a laundromat across the street and a large park with splash pad and play equipment 1 block behind the apt. The sidewalk around the park is .9 mile if you want to get your exercise in.

Other things to note.
This apartment is downtown Chesterton. As such, there is traffic and train noise that could disturb some guests. White noise and/or ear plugs really help. We provide ear plugs in the nightstand by the bed.

We use plug in Scents. Though most people like the fresh smell, we've learned that a few people are very sensitive and don't like them. If you want us to unplug them before your stay, just let us know.

Nice place for a short stay
We got in late and left early because we were only passing through town and needed to rest before getting back onto the road.

Super cute little apartment close to downtown Chesterton. The jet tub and electric fireplace were great after a day of hiking and exploring all of the little shops.

Restful bedroom
I enjoyed my stay here, especially the comfortable mattress and jacuzzi tub to unwind and watch a movie at the end of the day. The living room, dining room, and kitchen had a strong ammonia odor that smelled like a cat had sprayed often for a long time, and then carpet and/or paint was put over it. I did not spend time in that area of the rental at all other than to heat up some food and eat it in the bedroom.

Excellent location 👏
My girlfriend and I stumbled upon this hidden gem on our travels and fell in love with this little town and it's surroundings! I wanted to bring her back to celebrate her birthday and brought her to their annual wine festival. Romantic vibes throughout. Everything was in walking location of the event and a short drive to many nearby attractions. Super fun packed weekend! We loved the vacation rental! Spacious rooms. Biggest rental the size of a one bedroom with plenty of amenities. I was impressed with the kitchen...a cooks best friend. Everything was already provided if we had decided to have a meal in. The spa tub with jets was a added bonus. Comfortable bed. Clean. We will be staying in the future. Don & Kim were great. Everything went smooth! Thank you for a wonderful experience...

Highly Recommend
Thoroughly enjoyed the jacuzzi tub while watching a movie and eating dinner. The bed was very comfortable. I appreciated previous reviews of the musty smell and noise of trains. We came in and immediately opened the windows and enjoyed the sound of the trains. Only had a few hours at night to enjoy a few of the local bars. Wish we would have had more time to experience the town. We did get to enjoy a few hours the next morning at the National Park. Hosts were very accomodating to our needs, highly recommend.

Quirky in a good way
The place is quirky, in a good way, and very comfortable. Location is terrific for the State Park Beach. I’m sure fitter people will enjoy what the national park has to offer. Nearby restaurants are wonderful.
