College friends get-a-way

Great house for our group to spend the weekend catching up and relaxing! Really enjoyed the extra bonus of watching three deer in the back yard every morning during breakfast after we enjoying the quick stroll down to the beach.

Vintage Lake House Michigan City

Great space that easily accommodated our family of 16. Nice backyard deck in quiet wooded setting. Our kids loved exploring the woods behind the house. Nicely decorated space and well equipped kitchen. Walk to beach was manageable with small kids and wagons. Great memories created!

Beautifully wooded back yard

Alegria is well maintained and furnished. We enjoyed the close walk to the beach, which is huge and fun!! The private back yard is great for early morning coffee and evening dinner and relaxation. So enjoyable!

Sweet & short weekend stay

Our families second visit to the area and we brought friends along with us this time! Perfect location for us- short trip to the amazing zoo, walked on the pier and the kids loved the beach (even though it was kinda cold& windy), and had an amazing lunch at Dunebillies. The back deck was great and we saw deer on the hill behind us every morning and evening.

Walk to the beach on Lake Michigan

Home was clean and had everything you need for your stay. Well stocked kitchen, gas grill. Private back deck. Walk to the beach on Lake Michigan and had beach chairs that can be used. The only downfall is there really is no yard for the kids to play in. We spent a lot of time at the beach and had a wonderful family vacation.

Nice place that we would like to come back again.

Plenty of room for the 3 generations to gather for meals yet separate for different activities. Enjoyed the front and back patios. Close walk to the beach. Had a problem with a leak in the basement but it was fixed with a new water heater.

Yellow house

Lovely home. Lots of amenities. We thought we were going to be closer to the beach. The 3 of us thought the cleaning fee was excessive.

Great location

The property was easy to find. It was in close proximity to the beach, the zoo, a large park, and other places of interests. We had a good size group and there was ample space for everyone. Parking was limited but the neighborhood was quiet, and the people around the area were very accommodating it solved our parking issue. Todd was really quick to respond to our inquiries and request.

Family time!

This is a great place for a larger family. We have twelve, including six adults and six younger ones from kindergarten to 17. Plenty of sleeping areas. We needed a porch light replacement for our late arrivers and Todd was right over to replace it! We had a wonderful weekend.

Appreciated Todd’s flexibility regarding check in time! Charming, clean home with outdoor spaces. Well stocked kitchen. Very close to the lake. Mattresses in a few areas super hard for sleeping. This may not be a negative for some, but hard on my back.

Location, location, location

This house was close to perfect for us - three families with kids sharing a getaway. We walked to the beach, to the zoo, and to the lighthouse. A short drive to the dunes and outlet mall. Great living and dining space. The big table doubled for evening games. The kitchen worked well - we fixed all our meals at the house. Great to have a dishwasher. The first and second floor sleeping spaces are wonderful. The basement ... is still a basement, and the bedrooms down there are certainly functional, but not as inviting as the others. Very helpful to have three bathrooms! We were very satisfied!

Family Vacation

The house worked perfectly for our 4 families. The kitchen was exceedingly well supplied. The proximity to the beach was great. We loved the deck and backyard especially the treehouse! The yard could use a little work there is a large limb hanging from a tree that should come down and the deck flowers and beach chairs had been neglected but we cleaned it up and enjoyed all of it. We’ve been staying in the area for 3 years now and we all felt this house served us the best. Thank you Todd!!

Perfect place to stay

I want to thank Todd and Joy for opening their home to us! It was a perfect location for an out of town wedding spot for our family and friends. The layout was perfect for different people coming and going throughout the week. We even hosted a rehearsal dinner there that was perfect with the outside deck and the kitchen setup. The three levels was great we never felt crowded or even had trouble with everyone getting ready the morning of the wedding. The short walk to the beach was perfect - many trips to the beach for walks without having people in our backyard. Would definitely stay there again and suggest to any family and friends as the perfect place - always felt safe even at night when walking.

We really enjoyed our time together.

The house was very nice and clean. We enjoyed the deck and the nice walk to the beach. The beds were comfortable. The one thing we didn’t like were the bedrooms downstairs. As I know this is a basement, there were way too many bigs and spiders! Going to bed knowing there are spiders and bugs crawling around made me uncomfortable. I killed quite a few of them.

Great Family Getaway

The cottage was very well decorated with a beach theme. We especially liked the long dining table!! The back yard was very comfortable & beautiful! Seeing the mother deer & fawn were special events. We loved the short walk to Lake Michigan , park, & zoo. ( beach was even nicer than we expected)The loft was perfect for the grandkids. The lower level ( basement) was a little disappointing as it was chilly until we turned on the heater. The full bed in the room with bunk beds was not comfortable as you could feel the mattress springs. We had a wonderful time using the grill & well equipped kitchen !! Many happy memories were created!

Christmas Family Reunion 2015

Had a large group stay from Jan 1-3 2016. We also had several friends stop by as well. Had a great time. Our Christmas celebration with family was most enjoyable. It was nice spending 2 days together with our family members as many traveled from out of town to attend. Sleeping worked well, but lower level a bit chilly this time of year. Small space heater would have been a big plus. The main floor and loft were perfect. Fireplace was awesome, we used it our entire stay. Great kitchen, and our walk to the beach on Sunny Saturday was excellent. Owner was very nice in assisting us on whatever we needed.
