We liked the room at the end of the hall. The room was full of windows and chairs. We used the room quite a bit while at hotel. We also enjoyed the fire pit area. Breakfast area was clean, and spacious. Location worked out perfectly and it was nice to have UNO’s next door. Hotel had some areas that need upgrades (windows, doors). Hotel staff could have been more engaging. Overall experience was good.

The property is older but charming, nestled up against a wooded area. On each floor there's a sitting room at the end of the hallway with walls of windows on two sides, allowing a view of the woods, a river, and occasional wildlife. The rooms are clean and comfortable. There are some minor things, like an alarm clock that couldn't be reset or no instructions on how to operate the TV, and one room didn't have a TV guide. In one room the door to the balcony didn't lock. The staff is friendly and eager to please, though not always reachable by phone from one's room. Still, overall I would highly recommend this place and will stay there again if I'm in the area. Very close to the Dunes and not far from downtown Chesterton!

Great Experience!

The front desk was so very friendly and the place was so clean! It is very close to one of Lake Michigans beaches. The continental breakfast was good and hot every morning. The indoor pool was warm and not freezing cold. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back soon!

The hotel was low to average quality. Trains are going through nearby and blowing horns audible in the rooms 24x7. Room 310 did not have a hair dryer and the front desk was not helpful in finding a spare or providing a solution (access to a different room that had a hair dryer). Pillows were hard and, although we had hiked all day, everyone in our party had a sleepless night due to discomfort of the beds. I will not stay here again and do not recommend.

Very nice change of pace.

This place was beautiful. It was a welcome change from the traditional chain hotels. The location was great for our stop at the Indiana Dunes Nat'l Park. We only stayed one night, but knowing now how nice and quaint it was, I wish I had booked it for 2 nights. It did have a restaurant in the same area. We weren't really impressed with our meals, but that's just more of a personal taste/preference. The restaurant is separate from the Inn so that isn't any negative reflection of the Inn itself. It was beautiful.

A wonderful experience.

Great place to stay near the dunes and lake. Easy to get almost anywhere in the area. Can walk across the parking lot to get to Uno Pizza. The continental breakfast includes a waffle maker, eggs, sausage, cereal, yogurt and pastries. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Had a wonderful stay and will definitely include this hotel when I return to the area.

Charming location. In the woods so there are bugs but it’s part of the woodsy oasis experience. There are places to eat on the property and walking or driving distance to the Dunes park. Rooms are spacious but dates. We had a balcony that was weathered a bit so I did not feel comfortable going outside to stand on it. The view from the balcony window was beautiful and peaceful. There’s a nice size pool and sauna. Breakfast was redundant but decent: egg patties. Sausage links, continental breakfast item, and waffles. Overall, I would stay here again.

Woodsy experience

Awesome location in the woods, like the rustic style lodge overlookibg the woods. Bring binoculars to look for wildlife in back. They have some nice swinging chairs and a fire pit.
