7 Bedroom Lake Shore Dr. Beach Home - NEWLY BUILT HOME! Steps to the beach!

The house has 7 bedrooms, 4 baths, a fully finished walk out basement, a big front deck and a screened in porch in back.

Our home has 7 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms. The bedroom layouts are as follows:

2nd Bedroom - 1 queen bed
3rd Bedroom - 1 queen bed

The space

You will love this vacation home directly across from the beach path on Lake Shore Drive. Our home has a couple great outdoor options: a large deck at the front of the house and a screen porch in back. The inside of the house has an open layout, with the kitchen opening to the dining area and living room. The large dining table fits 10 - 11 people (8 chairs and a bench). We also have an additional 4 person foldable table and chairs in the pantry that can be added to the dining room table for a big dinner. The living room has a large sectional couch. The basement has a family room with 2 couches and 2 additional armchairs.

There are 3 televisions in the house: the living room and basement have big screen TVs with access to Comcast Cable and Roku. The Master Bedroom has a Roku TV. The house has wireless internet (wifi). There is room for up to 5 vehicles in the driveway in front of the house.

This home has plenty of appeal throughout the year. It is great for a summer beach vacation, a fall getaway to see the beautiful leaves, a Notre Dame football weekend, a quiet snowy winter retreat, a relaxing spring break, or a wine tasting weekend any time!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 7 bedrooms. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.

Initially, We were disappointed as entry to the home was to a dark, ice cold room with beach chairs piled in the corner and old kids’ games which were unusable piled on a table in a den with much used furniture. Up the unfinished steps, however, the house became a home with spacious rooms that we could spread out in and which were in much better condition. We enjoyed the stay after all, but could have avoided to initial shock if the house could be updated, and not described as new build. It has potential!

Our family of 10 stayed here for a week and overall had a great vacation. The house is very spacious and comfortably fit our group. While the listing says it sleeps 18, I think that would be very crowded. The location is excellent, but the property needs better cleaning and maintenance.At first glance the house appears clean, but once you settle in, you notice it isn't well maintained. The biggest disappointment was the grill. It was filthy, covered in grease, had old food left inside, and the burners were deteriorated and unusable. My granddaughter touched it and ended up covered in grease.There were also several maintenance issues that should have been caught during a walkthrough between guests. The first-floor bathroom door handle fell off, the laundry room bifold doors were broken, curtain rods were bent, and there were multiple patched water-damaged ceilings that were never properly repaired. Some mattresses were uncomfortable and squeaky, and the basement bedroom felt uninviting, so no one wanted to use it.My suggestion to the owners is to spend a little more time on cleaning and perform a maintenance walkthrough after each rental. This property has great potential, but better upkeep would make a significant difference.

This property had a good location and was large, but that is the only positive I can say about it. Otherwise, it was the quintessential example of the race to the bottom and absolutely no desire to provide any kind of reasonable guest experience. The place was dirty-- hair in the shower, dirty brown smudges of god knows what above the toilet paper on the wall, dust dirt and grunge everywhere, dirty cleaning rags found on the floor at check in in multiple rooms, unclean dishes in the kitchen (maybe because, as noted further down, they don't provide basic supplies like a scrub brush to actually clean them, so prior guests just put them away duty and covered with grunge). The host didn't provide hand towels or shower mats, and the bathroom towels were something they got at goodwill a decade ago (threadbare, falling apart). They don't provide shampoo or basic supplies. The house is far from a "new build" as detailed in the listing-- it's falling apart. Think-- door knob to bathroom falling off every time you use it, broken floor tiles, filthy mold stained doors, holes in the bathroom walls where there should be towel racks, a grill that has never been cleaned so it was a hazard / unusable (started a grease fire, and no fire extinguisher is available), exposed unfinished Sheetrock in bedrooms, the list goes on.

Family Wedding Spot

This was a great place to host our family and friends who were coming into town for a family wedding. Lots of rooms and great location. It seems like it has some wear and tear so don't think it's brand new but the owner was super attentive to the repairs needed and made sure to respond to my messages quickly. I'd definitely recommend it for a family and friends get together!

Beach in Aug

We were a large group- 5 families. We all fit in the house with plenty of room. Kitchen and eating area work well for big meals. Beach access was perfect. House is a little run down, but all just cosmetic and what I expect from a vacation rental. I would rent again.

A great long weekend stay.

The house was wonderful. Our group of 11 friends found the house to be a lovely getaway for a long weekend. When we checked in we noted a few small issues and the host , Colin, came to address them right away. The layout is great for a large group and having two porches is a nice bonus. We are already making plans to return to this house again.

Our family of 17 stayed for 4 nights, the house was perfect for us - plenty of very comfortable beds and space. Kitchen was very well stocked and house was very clean. The owner Colin was very quick to respond to the few questions we had. It was too cold to be at the beach but water was literally across the street. I would highly recommend this house!

Great House and Location

This was a great spot for a beach vacation--the house was spacious and an easy walk to the beach. We'd stay here again if pets were allowed. The hosts were very responsive--there were a few minor things that would have been nice to have (salt/pepper shakers, dishwasher pods, laundry detergent), but the hosts had more pods delivered when we asked about their location. They also had a new coffee maker delivered when the current one stopped working.

This location was perfect and the home was large enough to meet our group’s needs. The common areas were also large and open, easily accommodating our size group. We enjoyed the beach! The hosts were responsive when we had questions. The home also left a bit to be desired - it was clear there was some water damage to the home at one time and many areas that had been patched, but not sanded or painted. TV and fan remotes were either missing or didn't have batteries. There were some drainage/plumbing issues in the upstairs bathroom. The furniture was worn and dated. Cleaning service also appeared to have skipped an entire bathroom.

Tidy but microwave didn't work!

The home is tidy and stocked at the level expected of a rental but not super clean. The microwave by all appearances should function - timer runs and it makes noise but doesn't heat anything which is tough when eating out and with children. Overall a nice stay, easy check in and out, and great access to the private beach a short walk away.

Great house for large group

Property was great. Host was very quick with responses. A 2nd refrigerator would have been very helpful with a large group. We agree with others about the towels. Definitely need an upgrade. We all felt like the towels were so old and picked up at the Goodwill from an estate sale. Air conditioner worked great since it was very hot and humid during our stay.

Book Club 20th Anniversary

This house was huge and the bedrooms and bathrooms were most sufficient and comfortable. The host was very easy to work with and accommodating on a few small issues we had. The access to the lake and beachfront was so easy and accessible. Beautiful beach. There were 10 of us and this property was more than sufficient for us. It does need a bit of tender loving care though. The sun porch was dirty and the metal strip on the stove was coming off. A few towel racks had come down and not been replaced but just left with the mounting hardware. Little things like that which made it good not excellent on the review
