Holiday rentals with lake access in Michigan City

We stayed at Casita del Lago for our honeymoon and couldn’t have been happier with it. The little house was incredibly clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything thought through and taken care of. How clean it was was a huge bonus to us and Vic and Jess were awesome every step of the way. There were so many nice little details; we really enjoyed how there was everything from a toaster and a coffeemaker to kayaks and bikes. The area is definitely a hidden gem with tons of great food, lakes and parks, and nice things to do close by (go visit Little Chocolates if that’s your thing. It’s a cute shop with wonderful handmade chocolates and caramel). We would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again for our next trip to Dune-land!

This house was so beautiful and was a perfect place to spend a girl’s weekend! Would recommend over and over again and would definitely stay here again! Mike was also very quick at responding (even on the weekend) and when something wasn’t right he was very quick it fix it.

Nothing but great things to say / check-in was seamless and communication was perfect. The place was also top notch of course.

We had a wonderful stay at Heather & Lydia’s home! Their customer service is top-notch! The space was peaceful, beautifully and thoughtfully designed, and surrounded by nature—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The location is ideal, just minutes from biking and hiking trails, and close to New Buffalo, MI—one of our family’s favorite spots for great restaurants. It was Mother’s Day weekend, and I truly appreciated the welcome gift—a heartfelt and personal touch. Their clear, concise instructions made check-in and check-out easy and stress-free. Every detail made our stay feel special. We loved every minute and can’t wait to return. Wishing them many more happy guests!

Incredible home! Had everything you might’ve forgotten available. Tracy was wonderful to work with!

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!!!!!!

We had a girl’s getaway weekend at this lake house . We needed a place to simply relax and unwind, and Polly’s place provided just that. It is in a very peaceful location. We all enjoyed having our coffee/tea in the sunroom in the morning while listening to the birds. A couple of questions came up during our stay, and Polly and Jack were responsive and helpful. Polly even came over to be our photographer when we had an idea for some pictures on the staircase. She was a great sport. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the home was spotless. The fire-pit area and access to firewood was great . If there was any suggestion I could share, it would be to devise an easier way to utilize the paddle boat. We didn’t attempt it, because we don’t believe we could have got it in and out of the lake easily. Other than that, we had a great weekend. I would definitely recommend the property to anyone looking for a peaceful place to stay.

We come to this area often to see family, often for larger gatherings, and this is the second time we spent time at Courtney & Garrett’s place - last time, other out of town family stayed here and we all had dinner at their house. The hosts were always quick to reply to our messages, and offered several suggestions for things to do and places to eat. Their place is clean with personal touches, and my favorite design mix of modern and vintage. It has newer architectural elements and appliances, along with antique/classic furniture and design pieces so it doesn’t feel sterile like you’re sitting in a showroom at a furniture store but still feels clean and modern. The house has all the things one might need, is set in a private and beautiful location & is literally surrounded by nature, viewable through tons of floor to ceiling windows. We had a lovely stay and I’m sure we’ll come back again!

I was looking for a cozy spot with a jacuzzi for a weekend celebration for my husband’s birthday and it was so much more than that. Carlo was super helpful with recommendations and quick to respond back. Such a great area to walk around and explore. We loved staying here and are looking to book later again this year!

Really nice, remodeled home! We loved our stay, the beds were comfy, and we loved relaxing in the living room after our jobs were done. We ate at the bar that was next to the home. AMAZING FOODIES‼️🫶 HIGHLY recommend this place, and look forward to staying again in the future.

My two girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights and it has the most beautiful view of Lake Michigan! We arrived later in the evening and were so thankful that our host left us with restaurant menus and recommendations, we loved the pizza. Place was clean and very well stocked with linens and even coffee and some water in the fridge. The beach is a steep staircase away (it was a bit rough, and my legs hurt, but it’s worth the trek). Also thank you sooo much for letting us use your beach chairs! We stayed on the beach from sunrise to sunset. It was magical and the views are to die for! Our only complaint would be the lack of communication that the host would be staying on site during the same weekend as us. The listing brags about a private beach and yet at one point the hosts wife appeared 15-20 feet sitting directly behind us reading a book. We felt like teenagers being watched by our mother. We decided to take a walk, and when we came back she was gone, but it was weird.

Irene and Martin were very helpful and friendly. The place was cute and clean. It was exactly what I needed, peace and relaxation. The beach was a three minute walk and it wasn’t crowded. We brought firewood and outside by the fire pit there’s nice furniture and it feels like you’re in a little woodland area with nobody around.

Sameena was wonderful and extremely responsive. This was one of the cleanest Airbnbs we have been to. We had three toddlers with us and weren’t worried about the cleanliness of the floors, walls or surfaces. The very pleasant cleaning woman lives close by if anything comes up. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal. The only inconvenience is that there isn’t a washer and dryer in the home but there is one available to use down the street with clear instructions on how to get there. Overall this was a wonderful experience with plenty of space!

This unit was very comfortable and very spacious. It really has everything you need - towels galore, pool and beach amenities (chairs,noodles,cooler,etc), cleaning products, extra mirrors, cords, kitchen stuff - even those toiletries that you might have forgotten. The beds and bedding were very comfortable which is always lovely on a vacation! Patricia was so easy to work with and always answered my questions quickly. The pool was nicely heated and clean. The beach was mostly deserted so I felt like it was my private beach! The walkway down to the beach is paved and renting the golf cart made it even more of an adventure to go up and down that hill! I plan to be back!

Erica's listing was great. I would stay there again for sure. amazing communication and since the place was not booked before or after she gave us early check in/late check out if we wanted to utilize it.

The host was very responsive and friendly. He gave recommendations on where to eat. The recommendation of a tiny restaurant named Cool Runnings ended up being a HIT SENSATION! I was HAPPY that he recommended the restaurant. The home is nestled in back at a dead end street. Nice neighborhood and quiet! Waking up to the view of the beach was great. Literally a 3 minute walk down a path will get you to the beach. That walk alone was definitely worth the money spent. I loved the arcade games. When visiting Michigan City again we will stay here. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

We LOVED this place! Quiet, safe and friendly neighborhood which made it wonderful to relax and take several walks. Even a Nice short leisurely walk to the beach. We used the campfire pit a lot, since it was a cooler weekend than normal. The place was super clean, cute, cozy and comfy! Close to everything we wanted to do restaurants, ice cream, bike rides, etc. Peter was a wonderful host and even had a bottle of wine for us in the refrigerator to help celebrate our anniversary! We will be back!!

Really beautiful place in a great location. The pictures don’t really do it justice. Very relaxing and peaceful. Short walk to the beach. Great restaurants close by. It was perfect for a weekend getaway. Highly recommend.

Easy check-in and felt right at home. Jennifer was always responsive to messages. She also gave great suggestions for food etc. The house is located perfectly for walking to the beach, market, restaurants, coffee. It is also a great location for quick travels to New Buffalo, Three Oaks, Michigan City and more. We will visit again for sure!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The hosts were incredibly hospitable and flexible, making everything so easy and welcoming from start to finish. This home holds a lot of sentimental value for our family — we spent many years vacationing in this area growing up — and it meant so much to be able to return to the area and create new memories in such a beautiful, well-kept space. We couldn’t be more grateful and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, meaningful getaway.

We had a great time staying at Amy's place! It is the perfect size for a couple. It feels very cozy and like you are actually staying at someone's home vs. the sterile Airbnbs that are owned by corporate entities these days. The property is as described. It is very private, yet close to everything! I would recommend staying here if you're in the area.

I would recommend this place to anyone!!! Truly an above and beyond host and space was clean and inviting! Cannot wait to come back

What a beautiful location! Loved all the trees, beautiful yard to play games, super big fire pit, deck and grill was spotless! The inside was nice and spacious for the size. Great kitchen and bathrooms. The basement was large! We had an incredible time. Would come back for a longer vacation!

Great place to stay. Christine is a really good host. The house was clean, and the back yard is great. The only thing is that the access to the beach is a bit challenging than described. But, overall, we had a great expereince at Christine's place.
