2 Night Minimum. Welcome to the “Miami,” Sheridan Beach’s lakefront apartment with hot tub, ( OPERATING ALL YEAR ), Jacuzzi, steam room, and panoramic views of the dunes, surrounded by wilderness, beach, and Michigan City’s famous Lighthouse. There is nothing between you and the fine, sandy beach except a short "3-MINUTE WALK" down the footpath through the sand dunes to the lake. Beach chairs are provided. The sand is so fine that when you drag your feet, it actually squeaks. Open either the six French doors in the living room to access the hot tub or the four French doors in the bedroom and step out onto the expansive deck or stay inside and listen to the soothing sounds of Lake Michigan’s surf ( when the waves are up) and the songs of the crickets in the dunes. Let the sounds lull you to sleep. The master bedroom features a king-size/four-poster bed; and an additional queen-sized hide-a-bed with an extra 3-inch foam mattress topper. This is a 5-star accommodation at an awesome, natural 5-star location. Pets OK.
The floor is covered with a super plush 90-ounce carpeting that you can really sink your feet into, a master bedroom with a grandiose four-poster kind size bed worthy of a King or Queen, and Two sided gas fireplace. Extra-large bathroom with a three-person Jacuzzi tub, flat screen TV, beach sand toys for children, glass-surround dual shower, dual basins set in blue pearl granite, bidet, and an antique vanity dressing table. Truly a five-star feeling. You will also find an invigorating steam room with dual showers. Treat yourself to an outdoor shower on the deck and a large "PRIVATE" 8-foot x 8-foot hot tub ( 'AVAILABLE ALL YEAR' ). Comcast cable and high-speed wireless internet are included.
Wave Runner rental & 90-minute excursion boat ride, Yoga Sessions & Massages ( extra charge).
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a sofa bed, and a fenced private yard.

We recently stayed at “The Miami” and enjoyed the quirky, well-equipped space, especially the private deck and arcade machines. The location near the beach and dunes is beautiful, and the property has a lot of unique amenities. That said, there are a few important details that future guests, especially pet owners should know ahead of time.First, this is not a standalone house. It’s the top-floor apartment of a three-unit building. Access is via a shared stairwell, and a live-in caretaker resides on the bottom floor. Some of the amenities described — like bikes, kayaks, beach wagons, and the soda machine — are shared with the other units, which wasn’t entirely clear in the listing. That’s fine if you’re expecting it, but worth knowing in advance.We booked this rental in part because it was listed as dog-friendly, but the reality didn’t align well:There’s no grassy area for dogs to relieve themselves.The sand can reach very high temperatures (over 100F), which isn’t safe for paws.The yard contains cactus and poison ivy, and there were LOTS of ticks.During a required phone call, the host let us know that dogs aren’t allowed on the beach, and to take an umbrella to hide them. We were also told that if our dog might bark at all, we needed to take them with us at all times, which is not very practical.This property has some standout features and could be a great fit for couples or small groups without pets.

Miami

We absolutely loved our stay at the Miami. The location was private and beautiful. The deer came right up to eat and we watched them from the patio. We had many family competitions on the games and enjoyed the quick access to the beach. Everything worked properly and it was the cleanest place we have ever stayed. We all agreed we would definitely stay again!

Our third time here! But….

Overall , this is a fantastic condo! If there was a loft area over the entrance for a second bed for friends to stay, what a value it would be!- (Hideaway just doesn’t cut it!) Otherwise same as trip to Vegas! Also, as others have mentioned, little ladybug type incests falling onto bed at night unacceptable

Quirky Fun Stay

We're torn on how to comment on this stay. In some ways it was awesome - the fact that it has a video poker machine, a feeding station for deer (that you can watch in your room), that the beach is right there, a massage chair, the fireplace can be turned on with a flick of a light switch, the bed was super comfortable, the host is very attentive (maybe too communicative), there's a hot tub, and it's clean. However, the game room is in a very small closet; you have to have them all running at once (the sound is loud); they didn't check between guests to see if they were all working (which the game we wanted wasn't; so we had to call and it seemed like that's their preference - on us to call); all the bathroom light switches are timer based; there are bugs (mostly ladybugs and beetles) that drop through the skylight; the dogs on the first floor bark a lot; and for some reason you have to call the host ahead of your stay and have a long drawn out call (would have preferred to just had a keyless entry situation and communicated over the app). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and our pup enjoyed running on the beach. This is a one and done place for us, especially because of the price and the fact that it doesn't seem like they care to modernize things.

Great place on the beach

We stayed here for the weekend. We are originally from Michigan City and it was great to have a place to stay nearby that was not a hotel. The arcade games were a nice touch. Didn’t get a chance to use the hot tub, but it was an added bonus. Everything was clean and in good working order. Would definitely stay here again!

The place has everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing stay. I can’t think of one thing we could have needed (except maybe a few more days there). It was so clean and the view!!!!! Loved sitting on the balcony and waking up to that same beautiful view! Will certainly be back when we’re in the area!! Thanks for a great couple of relaxing days!!
