Welcome to your Michigan City getaway! This newly renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage is perfectly located just 5 minutes from Washington Park Beach, the Zoo, the historic Lighthouse Pier, and 99 acres of stunning lakeshore.
Step outside and you’ll spot the Blue Chip Casino & Spa right from the front yard, just a short, well lit, walk over the T.C. Bridge.

Even better, the cottage is just 42 minutes to the University of Notre Dame, 30 minutes to Valparaiso University, just over an hour to Chicago, and only 14 minutes to Dunes State Park and the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore -home to world-class bird watching, endless hiking trails, the famous 3 Dune Challenge, and The Pavilion Rooftop Dining (Excellent Sunset Views atop the recently renovated park pavilion).
