Nice hotel in a very pretty area near the Indiana Dunes National Park, Chelberg Farm and lakeshore attractions. Hotel is nice but can be cumbersome to get room cleaned for extended stays. Housekeeping only cleans rooms on checkouts. Pizzeria Unos is next door for dinner which is great.

This is a lovely, vintage style resort hotel next to the E Calumet River and a few minutes from the Dunes National Park. The rooms are large and comfortable. (Though the beds are very high). There is a Pizzeria Uno on the property and a meeting or bridal center. Breakfast is the same hot breakfast and do it yourself pancakes or cereal that you get in many similarly priced hotels. I did appreciate the 24-hour coffee, tea and hot chocolate machine. Excellent WiFi. Lovely pool. Great staff.
