The neighbor was rude and complained that people were walking on her grass. There has to be a right of way easement for people to walk on sidewalk so they are not in the street. Snow covered the area so there was no way of knowing so we just followed the prints in the snow. Complained cause we had a pony keg on the porch. There was no rules on that so why was I told after she complained that not to do it again. Very cold the first night in the house. Themostat dropped to 59 in the middle of the night. Temps outside was in the single digits so it got very cold in the house. Overall not impressed with the property so will not be staying there again.

Great place for getting together
Met up mid- way for our yearly gathering. Home was great for us to hang out and spend time. Cold weather was a bit of a struggle, as the home is older (which is understandable), but nothing that caused any issues. Plenty of room all of us, great location.

Relaxing
My stay was relaxing the bed were very comfortable, Wasn’t please with the entertainment room being in the garage no heater for the winter however for the summer it would be nice. Over all the place was roomy it had all utilities for a kitchen. Plenty of extra blankets. It was a lot of blue tape on the walls where repairs were being done but it didn’t interfere with our stay. The hospitality was outstanding Mr.Eddi communicated every step of the way. I had no bad experiences my stay was just fine. Neighbors had no issues with my guests. I would come back there again. that was needed in the kitchen Extra blanket.

Lots of potential...
House was very clean and easy to move into for the weekend. Game room in the garage was a bit disappointing...darts not in working order, air hockey had no air. So we stayed inside most of the time. Great little yard though! Felt private even in tight neighborhood.

Michigan City
This house has been very nicely rehabbed. It is well equipped, very clean and the beds were comfy. May not be in the best neighborhood, but none of the neighborhoods in Michigan City we saw looked that great. The city looks run-down but they're trying to revive some areas. We were there off-season (Oct) so it's probably better in the summer. Eddi was a ve reresponsive host.

Ideal Stay
Home was very clean with plenty of beds for guests. Has everything you could possibly need, including stocks of coffee, oatmeal, spices... Great yard with a fire pit and chairs, outdoor table for dining. Excellent area if you're looking to go shopping, or a day trip to Michigan's many activities. We greatly enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Summer Spot
Eddi was fantastic and has a very charming rental right near the lake. Everything we needed was available and Michigan City is a quiet town with a picture perfect beach. You won’t regret booking this place!
