When a train goes by, you will probably hear the whistle. Train schedules vary greatly so there is no telling how often you will hear it while vacationing. ***Note that if you are bringing infants/babies/young children, the unit is NOT baby-proofed. (Furniture is not secured to walls, outlet blockers are not included, cabinets/drawers are not locked, etc.) You assume responsibilities for all guests. You will have access to the entire house. All of the beach toys, wagon, chairs, 3 kayaks and stand up paddleboard will be in the shed. The garage is used for storage and will not be accessible for guests. As your hosts we will be available to communicate through the AirBnb app. If you need to contact us in an emergency, cell phone numbers are provided in the guestbook. Quiet, residential neighborhood mostly occupied by families. Walking distance to the beach at Stone Lake. If you're looking for a great starting point to explore all of the great beaches, wineries, restaurants and adventures available in Northwest Indiana and SW Michigan, La Porte will not disappoint! Michigan City is just 15 minutes away, New Buffalo is 20, The Journeyman Distillery is about 25. Even Notre Dame Stadium is only 40 minutes away! Avoid all of the South Bend craziness by staying here! Park in the driveway or some street parking is available on the block. Beach, walking and biking trails nearby. Just a short drive to chain restaurants, grocery stores, independent shopping and family owned restaurants in downtown La Porte. Due to the location of the dishwasher, it needs to be pulled out and at a slight angle to open the door full. If it's not, it will bump into the stove. This will be addressed in a future remodel.
