A spacious tri-level retreat nestled steps away from Lake Michigan

Escape to Serenity by the Lake — a charming, newly renovated 4-bedroom home in Long Beach, Indiana, steps away from a private beach, with no public access — so you'll have the beach pretty much to yourself.

This tri-level home sleeps up to 12 guests. Bedrooms: two with a king bed, one with two queen beds, and one lower-level bedroom with two twin beds — plus two rollaway beds available for extra guests, each sleeping one.

The main level is open and inviting, with a living room, dining area, and gourmet kitchen with modern appliances, plus a fireplace for cozy evenings.

Outside, you get two porches to enjoy: a front porch with lounge chairs and a table to enjoy the sun, and a back porch with a dining table and lounge chairs, secluded and beautiful, covered with trees, looking out over the backyard. The backyard also has a fire pit, a putting green, and a grill for outdoor entertaining.

The upper level features a king bedroom with a private balcony and views of the trees. The lower level is perfect for families, with its own living room, bedrooms, and private balcony.

The finished garage is a bonus retreat in itself, with a six-person infrared sauna, plus an extra shower and bathroom.

Guests can enjoy swimming and sunbathing on the nearby private beach, hiking in the surrounding forests, and exploring the charming town of Long Beach — a serene, cozy retreat for a peaceful getaway by the lake.

Pets may be considered with prior owner approval; a cleaning / pet fee will apply.

30 day minimum rental.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

My co-workers and I absolutely loved our time in this home. We loved the area, neighborhood and close proximity to the beach. The house had everything we needed. While it was only 3 of us, the amenities exceeded our needs with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. We were so close to a lot of places while staying here. The host Ausra was prompt with all responses and provided all the information we needed. Id love to stay here again if the circumstances lead us here again.

Family Reunion 2024

I had my family that came in from Texas and altogether there was 8 family members that needed a place. There was no space in my house and this VRBO fit the bill perfectly!!!! Plenty of beds, bathreeom and space to eat at as a family. We were only 2 blocks from the lakefront which worked out perfect for everyone to make it down tonthe lake for a bit of fun before watching fireworks from both New Buffalo and also Michigan City !!! This host made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay amazing!!
