Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Portage

This location was clean, quiet and comfortable. Perfect spot for enjoying the Dunes, hiking and birdwatching. I own a non-Tesla electric vehicle and there was a reliable set of chargers (6) at the Meijer store 5 miles away.

We had an amazing time staying here for our joint Bachelor/Bachelorette weekend! It is a beautiful property that comfortably fit all 13 of us! We miss it already! It was a great time :)

This is such a beautiful home! Got the chance to unplug and feel right at home within the trees. Lots to do in the area too, went to the zoo, winery, and a brewery. Laurel was great and had a bunch of notes around the home that were super informative and helpful. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who’s looking to slow things down and connect with nature.

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent stay at this home. The home itself was filled with everything we could have needed and saved us from trips to the store when we needed something quickly. It also felt to me like it was nicer than the photos and felt extremely safe and comfortable. All in all I would 100 percent stay here again!

Very comfortable and lovely home to stay in. My birthday overlapped with the Indiana Migratory Bird Watching festival this year at the Dunes which was a fun way to celebrate with family and our dogs. Great home for nature lovers and birders alike. The hot tub is comfortable but if it’s windy do expect debris. Courtney was very responsive with all our hot tub needs. We used both AC and heat and both work well. Wifi is very easy to connect and troubleshoot. Very comfortable screened in porch. Overall a lovely stay and would highly recommend!!

Great private space on a quiet street. Lots of breweries and restaurants a quick drive away. Amenities were just as described and the space is in great condition.

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 stayed for almost a week with three dogs. Sarah's place was perfect for our needs - great backyard, comfortable beds, clean and equipped kitchen, and awesome location - close to Chicago, Indiana dunes and easy to navigate thru, no traffic. Sarah and her family (and their amazing dog Chandler) are super friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay there again once back in the area.

This place absolutely perfect! We were back and forth from Navy Pier for a tournament. The apartment was the perfect escape from the noise. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to the city. I can’t recommend this apartment enough. The price, for Chicago, is totally worth it!! Host is very quick to respond. The distance from the Pier to the apartment is an easy, short drive.

We had an amazing stay at Kitty’s place! From the moment we arrived, she made us feel so welcome. She even decorated the house for my fiancée’s birthday and left us treats, which was such a sweet touch. Her recommendations were super helpful and made our trip even better. The house was full of books and art that made it feel really special, and the beds were super comfy. The separate entrance was great for privacy, and street parking was easy to find, which was a big plus. Thank you so much for all the little things that made our stay unforgettable. We would love to stay here again very soon!

Tiffany was friendly host and made sure to communicate with us to make our stay enjoyable. The place walkable distance to public transit and the neighborhood was safe enough to walk at night. It was clean and as pictured, there was coffee, utensils, plates, etc if you needed prepare food.

We had a wonderful stay. The apartment was just as advertised – clean, quiet, and comfortable. Very nicely decorated. The host provided great communication throughout. Nice location, with easy access to plenty of dining, bars, and shopping. Highly recommend!

We stayed on the third floor of the complex and enjoyed Matthew's attention to detail. He gave a lot of thought to all components of his property.

We truly had the best time staying at Alec’s. The space is lovely, comfortable, and has everything you’d need. The outdoor spaces were beautiful and private with a high fence surrounding it. We enjoyed spending time by the fire and the neighborhood is great. Our favorite part by far were Alec’s two lovely pups Molcajete and Lobita. They were absolute ANGELS and made us so happy- we hated leaving them. Alec was a great host- super communicative, friendly, and just what we needed. When we come back to Chicago, we’ll definitely stay with him again.

Very nice clean space, host provided clear and concise instructions on check in/check out, etc. Would definitely recommend!

very kind and responsive host. very clear instructions. apartment is large, sunny, spacious and has the coolest retro vibe with super cool decorations. Good AC and very close to public transportation in case you want to explore the rest of the city or get downtown. Very quiet and safe neighborhood, and she even provided a parking pass for you at no cost. thank you Antoinette!

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.

We had an amazing 5-star stay in Chicago! The home was spotless, artfully decorated, and full of thoughtful touches like a piano, guitar, and a welcome gift. We loved the 360° rooftop deck with a fireplace and the fully equipped kitchen with a balcony. Beds were super comfy with high-quality, clean bedding. Though close to downtown, the home is on a quiet street and offers keyless entry — very convenient. We also appreciated the private garage with EV charger, 3 TVs, 2 fireplaces, and a great Nespresso machine. The location is unbeatable—near top spots like Swift & Sons and City Winery. Natasha was an excellent, responsive host. We’re already planning to return!

We had an excellent time here. Our whole dance team was able to stay comfortably and safely. We managed to fit 5 cars in the parking which was essential to us. It was all clean close to everything we came to Chicago for. The communication with the host was great and always prompt. We loved it here.
