Yellow house
The inside was nice. Our only complaint was the shower, very poor water pressure. The outside front porch and back less than desirable. Surrounding area very iffy at night to be outside. Overall, nice stay it was close to our regular stops- cherry beach, new buff etc.thanks for having us.

August getaway
The weather was beautiful. Location was great; right next to the outlet, 5 minutes to beach and restaurants, and the train station. We spent time at the beaches and also took the train into Chicago for a day. Nice place to spend a few days.

Best Spot in Michigan City!
We loved our stay at the Cozy Getaway! We brought our two large breed dogs and their dog-sitter, Furbo. If you have dogs that react to noise you'll want to be aware this space is one of 4 units in this lovely remodeled century home. We had to make the owner aware of an issue with the air conditioning not working and they promptly sent their handyman to save the day! If watching tv in bed is your idea of romance, you'll have to move the only tv though. The location is top notch with the shops and strips right outside the front door, we felt like all of Michigan City was at our disposal. We can't wait to come back for another weekend away from hustle and bustle of the city!

All in all great, but one small thing(s)
Everything was pretty stellar. Communication. Amenities. Location! All on point. One small thing, which I feel bad for even sharing because I enjoyed communicating with Michelle and enjoying the home.. but there was ants. I had them crawling on me.. while I was on the couch a couple times.. which had me paranoid etc. They ruined the mood a couple times. Their handymen came in and did a treatment for them.. but yeah, still found and killed dozens the day after etc. So yeah, Unfortunately there was ants. They were really tiny and you can tell they probably just started venturing out with the weather warming up a little. But I had to deal with them for a week. And I wish I didn't have to. Everything else was on point though.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
My husband and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway and really enjoyed our time here! We easily walked to nearby restaurants and bars as well as the lakefront and shopping. The unit was as described, clean and offered a very comfortable bed. We had absolutely no issues and our host, Michelle, provided excellent communication throughout the entire process. We'd stay again without hesitation!

VRBO retreat
House was clean and as expected inside.Host was pleasant also. I guess our disappointment was in the area. Sadly lots of people walking by who appear without. Not their fault but so much of Michigañ City seems run down. I was really surprised. I can see improvements being made on old homes possibly for vrbos, but I wouldn't go back.

Perfect getaway
This small apartment seemed spacious with the higher ceiling, and was perfect for my husband and I with our small dog. Very clean, comfy bed, and kitchen had everything we needed. Safe neighborhood to walk in. It was a couple minutes drive to the beach. Thank you Michelle for the quick responses to any questions. We will be back!

We spent most of our time touring, the marina area is nice as is the beach. The Main Street is filled with cute little stores/restaurants. You probably could walk to Main Street but we drove and parking was no problem. Thanks Michelle for a great place to stay.

Great place to stay!
It was clean and had all the amenities needed. The bed was very comfortable! We enjoyed the front porch in the afternoons, but the view of the back of the shopping center was less than spectacular! 😂 It was close to everything we wanted to see, Mount Baldy State Park, the Botanical Gardens, the Zoo, and the Lighthouse Museum. Best of all they welcomed our two little dogs! We had great stay and would definitely recommend it to others.

Great stay! Came for our 4 month olds first vacation. Perfect amount of space. Easy access to the dunes, right across street from shopping outlet, and quick walk to the arts district. Loved that it was pet friendly too! Easy communication with owner, she even checked in after the first night to make sure everything was good. Would definitely recommend!

Great location
Perfect size for the wife and I with our 2 pups. Property was clean, cozy and quiet. Bed was comfortable and had plenty of storage. All the restaurants nearby had great food and service. Loved we were close enough the beach to get a beach day in and the neighborhood was well suited when it was time to walk the dogs. Overall great place to stay. And if you love shopping the way we do, the mall is a stones throw away!
