Great for Families
House was a perfect place for our family (and dog:) to stay for our son’s wedding in Munster. Loved the kitchen area to gather with our family. Snacks, fruit and water upon arrival were a nice bonus. Great communication with host.

Wonderful stay
The house was very comfortable. It was large enough that everybody could have their privacy and enough room for us all to come together. The bathrooms are large and the linens were nice. We would definitely rent the house again if we ever needed to.

Family wedding and visit old hometown
The property was just as it is pictured. The host is amazing and very helpful. We walked in-the lights were on, snacks and fruit on the counter to enjoy, plus k-cups and cold water in frig! We stayed close to where my mom (86 years old) grew up. the blessing of family stories was a highlight. Then a family wedding by in Chicago. Thanks for a lovely place to stay. Walking around the neighborhood or to the grocery store made this a convenient location.

Very nice house. The hostess, Gwen, was very thoughtful and communicated very well with me so there was no anxiety about anything. The home accommodated my husband and myself and our son. But this would also be a great place to stay for a family with young children. The neighborhood is quiet and the backyard is fenced in. All in all, a good experience.

The location was a little further from the softball fields than we would’ve liked, but it was DEFINITELY WORTH THE DRIVE! The convenience of getting up and having breakfast or working in the kitchen or playing Xbox was nice! Very clean—-much cleaner than the hotels in Crown Point!! Thank you for opening your “home” to us!

Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood.
This house was amazing! It had all of the comforts of home. Plenty of towels and linens. Dishes, utensils, cookware, anything and everything you would need. The property manager checked in on us to see how we were doing. We will definitely book this home again next time we are in the area.

New Year’s Gathering
This was a very nice place to spend a quiet New Year’s weekend with a small group of family. The property was very clean and well appointed. We had everything we needed to prepare a holiday meal. Gwen was an outstanding host and very responsive. The welcome note and snack basket were a nice extra touch and we truly appreciated both. We definitely recommend this rental and will return!
