Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Indiana Dunes National Park

What a wonderful stay our family had in Michiana Shores, Indiana at Greg’s place. Even though 2 of the 3 days were mostly overcast / rain, there was still plenty of activities to do. We hung out in the pool & hot tub areas multiple times, had a fire every night, and cooked all 3 meals each day in the wonderfully maintained kitchen. The kids loved their room setup with the bunk bed and twin bed. The parks nearby are lovely. The backyard was very luscious with tranquility full of greenery and peacefulness. Greg was very responsive and helped us out with questions before and during our stay. Definitely would recommend this spot if you are wanting to take a vacation near the nationally known Indiana Sand Dunes. Overall 5+ stars!

My family and I had a lovely summer Indiana Dunes weekend at Jill’s place. The house was clean, cozy, and well-stocked. We loved the bikes and covered back porch. It was nice to be right on the Calumet trail, in biking distance to beaches. We took a 25 minute drive to Garwood’s and came home with a boatload of strawberries, and took a beautiful sunset dip in Lake Michigan. Thanks for the fun weekend!

Comfortable & peaceful home right on the lake! We enjoyed the cottage for several days while visiting family nearby. It was a great place for our family of 4.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The space is beautiful and we felt right at home. Brooke was so helpful and responsive to any questions we had. Highly recommend!

Crystal's place was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Crystal sent us all the information we needed for check in and responded to any messages very quickly. The house is very nice and lots of room. It had a lot of restaurants nearby and was a great place to stay to visit the Indiana Dunes. Would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Jennifer’s house! It was clean, great location & cozy! We especially loved the automatic pool cover so we could actually relax on vacation with our little ones running around. I also loved the three separate areas outside (pool, fire pit, grassy area). The separate areas offered a nice change of scenery to break up the day without leaving the house. I also loved that it’s a spacious ranch style house, so was easy to keep eyes on the kids. Jennifer was a wonderful & accommodating host & can’t wait to get back to her house soon! Thanks for having us!

This was ur second stay at Andrew’s and it didn’t disappoint. He worked with us last minute to make a reservation so we had somewhere to stay. A friend of ours passed away and we didn’t have a lot of planning time. We love that the place has a pack n play, high chair, and some kids toys & dishes. Things like that make a stay with children much smoother. Thanks again for another great experience.

Our family had an amazing stay here! The design of the home was incredible and it was a great location. Our kids are already asking when we can come back! The close proximity to the beach was amazing. What a beautiful place!

We had a great stay! The house was perfect. It was nice and clean with a great rooftop deck and screened in porch. The location could not have been better, walking distance to everything in town. Everything was easy as far as check in and check out with a book explaining everything in the house. Mark was great at responding to questions. I would highly recommend staying here.

We absolutely love staying here, it is our go to staycation home. Lisa is always available if we need anything. This was our second stay and we plan to come yearly. Our kiddos love the pool and love how close stores and Dairy Queen of course are in walking distance :)

Amazing trip for our family. The home was clean, beautiful and the location was wonderful with walkable restaurants and places to get coffee, groceries. The pool was perfect for our kids. We felt right at home :) Our host was great and extremely responsive to any messages. Looking forward to a future trip.

This was a wonderful Airbnb. It was very clean and the decor was lovely. It was a short drive to Indiana Dunes State Park and restaurants in the area. Very convenient. We really enjoyed the heated pool and the dog friendly atmosphere. My dog loved the yard. Would 100% stay again if in the area.

This home was super cozy for my big family. Everything was clean, comfortable, and the way it is set up makes you feel right at home. This home had everything we needed. TV’s, kitchen items, recommendations, and even fun family games and activities to do. Every time I visit the area I’ll be checking to see if it’s available. 10/10

Great stay! Loved the pool and lanai. Had fun playing the board games from the 80s and 90s. Great, well equipped kitchen - even a blender for smoothies! Linens were amazingly comfortable.

We had a lovely family reunion at St Joe’s overlook. Kitchen came with literally everything- all sorts of cooking instruments (crock pot, air fryer, toaster etc), spices/oils, and zip lock bags for leftovers. All brand new appliances and ample prep space. We got the pool heated and it was wonderful! Very large size to fit all the family kids. The hot tub was a nice save for the adults who were freezing. Beautiful views from the living room of the river with ample and comfy seating. The home was perfect for a large gathering. We appreciate Evan and Claire hosting us they were always responsive and helpful.

Lovely home, many well thought out perks like fans in upstairs rooms and beach toys for kids! Info said it was an easy short walk to beach so I spent a whole lot more than I usually would. With children it would not be pleasant and is really not a short walk (and is on a semi busy road) & beach is down a whole lot of steps. BUT there are parking spaces so it was fine. Within the house, the steps are fairly steep at parts & there are 2?big ones going into house &!these were hard for my 70 year old mom w knee issues. So if person reading reviews is one of those people, this might not be THE place. That being said, it is very short walk to community pool & host is very responsive & house is beautiful! My mom mostly stayed within first floor including an awesome bed/bath on ground floor. There are games (although I didn’t love the Ouija board 🫣😂) . This would be a great place for multiple family / friends to split cost ;) Its very beautiful & community pool & hot tub are great!

Great location—just a few minutes from Indiana Dunes National and State Parks, and very close to a convenient travel center. Michigan City is also nearby for extra exploring. The backyard was a real highlight—peaceful and beautifully set up for families to relax and spend quality time together. Highly recommend!

The house was charming and we loved the mid century modern furnishings. We slept well and easily walked to the beach with our small dogs many times! The kitchen was well-stocked, the yard was lovely, the bathroom pristine, and if you have the need, there are so many dog treats, toys and blankets! The people living in this area are friendly and warm. It felt like home and we would definitely return!

Beautiful place to stay. Layed out great! The most dog frendly place i have stayed at. Loved the little dog shower after a long day at the beach great place to get them all cleaned up. Then relax in the great couches. Would stay there again!

Had the absolute pleasure of taking my wife to Rudy + Deanna's Airbnb to celebrate our first anniversary. Both co-hosts were very responsive, very friendly, and shared a ton of useful local knowledge for us to make our weekend special! The Airbnb itself was gorgeous - pristine inside with all the amenities you could need. The four of us (two dogs, yes they are pet friendly) had a wonderful time and would absolutely recommend this place to others wishing to visit Michigan City! Thanks again!

We had a wonderful time at the Porter house! It was as-expected and it had everything we needed. Proximity to the beach was amazing and the backyard forest was so magical. It felt very secluded but still close to everything. Would recommend.

I have stayed here before and loved each visit. The place is always clean and smells great. Connie is an amazing host, very helpful and pleasant.

It was nice, the host is kind, and the location is peaceful. It's like an adventure. The RV is clean, and well kept, and has the best view of the tree and horses alike. Our mastiffs went up to look at the horses and they did not spook. The horses seem tame and happy. The RV also has a nice deck, and a swing for a great view of the sunset. The bed is very comfortable and check out is flexible, communication with the host is awesome. We accidentally took the key, and the host was very understanding of it. Peaceful spot at the end of the state street. Will def come back.

Simply beautiful! My daughter ( 7 year old) and my goddaughter ( 5 year old) enjoyed themselves! We loved the layout, beautiful scenery, spacious rooms, the updated amenities, the spa bathtub and the outdoor patio swing is amazing! This house is somewhere you can relax and rewind, enjoy yourself and feel safe at! Angie, is the best! I recommend you stay at Angie’s beach house! You will love this house!!!!!!
