Beautiful place
Sweet Retreat is a gorgeous place to stay. It had everything we needed to have a wonderful relaxing stay. The kitchen is well stocked. Beds were comfy, and the front porch was a fun place to hang out with our morning coffee.

Great, stay in vacation town!
This Stay was amazing! Tbh the pictures don’t give it justice. When I finally arrived at the property, I got way more than what the pictures described. There is a very clean large and spacious bedroom in the basement that is not shown in the pictures. Large enough to fit 12 of my friends and I. I definitely recommend

Wedding Weekend
Sweet Retreat and its companion property Sweet Inn are the perfect place for a family gathering. We were there for a wedding in nearby Michigan City, so the location was ideal. With the two houses rented together, we had the right amount of space to gather as a group but also have some privacy when needed. The smaller house is great for older family members or those with young kids who need a separate quiet space. It was cold and chilly, so we didn’t use the outdoor space, but it looked lovely as well. Both houses were well stocked with kitchen supplies for cooking for a large group. The host was responsive, flexible and helpful and made sure we had what we needed for a great stay. I left a nice review on Sweet Inn but forgot to click the stars—it was 5 star as well! Would definitely rent again!

Great Reunion House
We had 4 families staying here, coming from all around the upper midwest for a friend reunion (8 adults and 10 kids aged 3-10). Each couple had their own room, and the kids camped out in the basement (or in their parent's rooms). We utilized many amenities of the Beachwalk resort (yoga class, pool, playground, tennis, shuffleboard, bocce ball) and spent a day at the BEAUTIFUL Lake Michigan beach down the road. Be sure to bring everything you might need for the beach (sand toys, chairs, shade, etc). There was a wagon to use to help cart it all. The kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of towels to go around, plus we used the washing machine to keep things freshened up! We had a great stay here and would not hesitate to recommend it to another fun-loving group!

Nice family reunion
Beautiful location with lots to do in the community … the house was clean and kitchen has plenty of equipment/dishes. Assortment of spices… but brings everything else needed for food. Great communication of how to check in… be aware everyone must wear event wristbands and cars need parking passes. Ours were missing in arrival… but they brought them quickly. We enjoyed the pool, pickleball, beach access. They have local live music in the evening. Would recommend for groups wanting space both inside and out!

Great Getaway!
A great spot for a getaway - large friend group or family reunion. Lots of beds, comforts of home. Neighborhood was veer cute - loved to see the house names and colors. Only recommendation would be to coordinate cars - parking was a bit troublesome - host did provide instructions and permits, and we were there on a holiday weekend so I am sure that contributed. Communication with host was always prompt and pleasant. Would recommend this property.
