Loved the location on the lake. Close proximity to Indiana Dunes National Park. Quite a few restaurants nearby which was convenient. Right off the highway but couldn’t hear the traffic, which was optimal.

Clean room, loved the balcony & watching sunset over the pond! The deck chairs were outdated, partially broken and sit too low- so the deck railing blocks the view from the second floor if you sit in them. Staff worked hard and were very friendly! The pool was perfect for our 4 & 11yo, the sauna was a nice addition but the seat needs fixed in it. We found the BEST hidden gem restaurant- a drive in restaurant called The Port- homemade root beer, HUGE menu, and SO nostalgic! The root beer and food were delicious with large portions! We loved how close we were to the sand dunes and Lake Michigan!

Great location - very close to Indiana Dunes NP. Awesome breakfast and lots of parking spots available. Lake view rooms. Hotel condition is pretty rundown - the chair in our room was in tatters. But overall, an overnight stay works!
