My two children and I stayed here while we were visiting Indiana Dunes. The hotel is old, yet really sweet and adorable. Our room was very clean and the staff were friendly. The pool is pretty small and old, but my children loved playing in it. The hallways and cool furniture and decorations made me feel like I was going back in time. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Bugs!! I understand this is a rustic property and close to the woods. Still, the n 10 minutes in the room my family located five bugs of various types. There is also a strange smell throughout the place. Separately, when booking they were extremely ridged with the cancelation policy. Expedia was almost not help and very inflexible with this as well. The staff when we were there were calm and kind. The confirming of our refund was also understanding and smooth. In the end, I wish I was aware that part of the charm was bugs and a general lack of cleanliness.

My family stayed here en route to Indiana National Dunes Park to visit relatives. It was charming, clean, and a wonderful getaway from the other crowded hotels.

Went there for new years eve. Stood at front dest using their phone to call for asst. Finally after 10calls i used my personal phone and the two staff members finally came to the front. By this time 4 other families came in behind us. One staff stood there while the other staff checked people in. We had a little dinner and we broke our lid and cleaned it up but asked. For a vacuum to make sure it was completely cleaned up. Lady came upstairs very upset and said wheres the broken glass and what of ours/hotels was broken. We stated downstairs when we asked for vacuum. Then all night we were fighting with our door to close and it wouldnt. We were told all rooms were booked. So finally my husband went downstairs after the 2 ladies left and complained again the gentleman came upstairs and tried to fixes it and offer us a different room at 1:30am. Well we told him we were told there was no other rooms or less we would have taken it. Finally with looking at the door we seen you had to lift the door up for it to lock. Luckily it did cause i have a 3yr who likes to go in and out. We didnt take the room cause all of our stuff was already in the room and kids were asleep. This hotel isnt a kid friendly hotel. The pool was green green. The sauna once again didn't work. My family was going every year for the last 13yrs. This was our last year there cause we will not be returning more so due to rude staff.

This property is not good and clean for kids under 2years, carpet is too bad and so dirty, corner chairs are pathetic, too much dirt. Please make sure this is all taken care ahead of guests arrival. Thanks

We stayed for 2 nights. Lodge was nice and clean, very cozy feel. Room was nice as well. The only slight negatives is we came in from out of town and arrived a bit early. We were told that check in was strictly at 3pm. Front desk didn't even offer to see if our room was ready when we got there. Also, Sat night there were children staying there and we could hear them running around and being quite loud. It was before quiet hours started so I can understand but I know if they were my children they would have been told no running....they were also up and running quite early as well making it difficult to sleep but again quiet hours were just about over as it was about 7am.

Overlooking/in the woods from the room balcony. Large room, plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 kids. Fireflies in the trees at night. Nice warm indoor pool. Homey large attractive lobby. Close to the Dunes. Convenient location, near restaurants and Superchargers (seems like everything is 8mins away)
