The company provided a detailed manual of instructions, attractions, and notes (Wi-Fi, lock box) prior to check-in. We were also surprised with some sweet treats and a bottle of wine upon arrival. The Black House on Beech is a small stunner called The Starling. Perhaps The Startling might be more apropos because it is a 2-story 3BR, 2BA house on a small footprint painted a pure matte black. Inside is modern and simple, decorated in black and white. They've considered every comfort -- there's a sauna, a hot tub, fire pit and hammock-- outside. Connect to the house Wi-Fi, watch a movie, play some tunes on the turntable, challenge your companions to a few board games--inside. Or walk a few minutes to Staymaker Restaurant at Journeyman Distillery, stock up on staples at Froehlich's Kitchen & Pantry, or enjoy a casual lunch/brunch at Oaks Eatery. This is a fine getaway for a small group or family. We only had a small mixup with the Wi-Fi but they were very responsive and this was cleared up right away. All the amenities at a small and quiet oasis. We didn't use the sauna but will be ready to try it on a return visit.

The house was beautifully appointed, with a fantastic pool, hot tub, and breathtaking views. But more important than the house was the service and the "little extras" provided by Juniper Holiday + Home. From start to finish, they communicated everything we needed, making the trip easy and enjoyable. When we asked questions about the area and concierge services for our celebration, they were attentive and helpful. I can't say enough great things about the entire experience--my friend loved every moment of her celebratory vacation!

Water, Water Everywhere, Leaking from the Ceiling and Up From the Floors - 400 Beachwalk, Michigan…read moreCity, Indiana If you're searching for a Michigan City vacation rental, Beachwalk Community rental home, Indiana Lake Michigan beach house, or a family-friendly vacation home near the beach, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere before booking Take It Easy at 400 Beachwalk. Unfortunately, our stay was impacted by multiple major maintenance and water intrusion issues that made large portions of the property unusable. The most concerning issue was large amounts of groundwater leaking up through a floor drain on the ground level, resulting in standing water and creating an unpleasant environment. Additionally, groundwater was overflowing from the ground-level toilet, raising significant concerns about the property's drainage, plumbing, and overall maintenance. The problems became even worse when we discovered that a cracked shower in the upper-level bathroom was leaking substantial amounts of water into a first-floor bedroom below. Water drained through the ceiling for over 12 hours, causing visible damage and making the bedroom unusable for the duration of our stay. As a result, we also lost access to the upstairs bathroom, significantly reducing the functionality of the home and creating a major inconvenience for our group. When you book a premium Michigan City VRBO, Beachwalk resort rental, Lake Michigan vacation home, or Indiana beach getaway, you expect a clean, well-maintained property that is ready for guests. Instead, we dealt with groundwater intrusion, plumbing failures, water damage, moisture issues, and the loss of critical living space. These issues negatively affected our vacation and did not reflect the quality advertised for a Beachwalk Community rental property. For travelers looking for a Michigan City beach vacation, Beachwalk Community lodging, Lake Michigan rental property, Northwest Indiana vacation home, weekend beach getaway, or luxury beach house rental in Michigan City, I would recommend thoroughly researching alternatives and staying far away from this property. The management company, Third Coast Vacations, had to send maintenance people out on four separate occasions to deal with the above issues, further impacting our stay. On the fourth occasion, one stood in the main room, patted me on the shoulder, and told me, "We would be taken care of," insinuating they cared about us. However, after checking out, that could not have been further from the truth. Communication had to be initiated by us for any resolution, and that resolution is a far cry from making up for all that we experienced in this trip. The combination of groundwater flooding, toilet overflow, ceiling leaks, water damage, unusable bedrooms, and loss of bathroom access made this one of the most disappointing vacation rental experiences we've had. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Take It Easy at 400 Beachwalk, Michigan City, Indiana, and would not consider staying here again or recommending anyone else risk a vacation at this house. EDIT: The owner mentions a "healthy refund" in their response. I guess we have different definitions of what "healthy" and "taken care of" mean from this rental company.

It's absolutely the worst customer service I have ever encountered in hospitality. They have nice properties listed, but don't count on your vacation sticking. We received an *email* two weeks before our rental that it was canceled due to "scheduling issues." (It had been reserved since November for week in July.) That's it, no call, no explanation, and no effort to try to remedy the situation. Despite the email saying we would receive a full refund, we have not. I have left over a dozen voicemails and no one has returned my calls.

I went here for a winter weekend getaway with some girlfriends, and we all had the best time!!! -This cottage is located walking distance from downtown and the beach. So, it's right by all the shopping and restaurants. It's even walking distance to the grocery store if you need to pick up a few things. It's located in a small neighborhood, at the end of a quiet street. -The interior design is absolutely amazing! It's such a cute gem of a place. It's so farmhouse chic... with fluffy blankets, adorable pillows, candles, wreaths... and just everything to make it perfect! The second you walk in, you 100% feel like you're home! The interior design of this house was my favorite aspect of staying here! -Some awesome things... there's an indoor fireplace, essential oil spray for the bedding, a fully stocked kitchen, an upstairs little hidden attic... and then bikes and a pool to use in the summer! I cannot recommend this place enough! Do yourself a favor and take a little vacation here!

I had a minute to look at the menu while my bf already saw the raspberry lemon non dairy so I had my mind set on something orange creamsicle but wasn't sure if I'd get the shake or the cone so I opted for the shake since we were walking. Omg the flavor and everything about it took me back to my childhood memories of summers by the public pool and the simpler times. It was very satisfying! I did try the raspberry lemon and it was quite delicious as well, but I'm definitely an orange creamsicle gal. The young ladies were very sweet and helpful I love their kindness and I especially appreciate the young lady who rang us up and her patience since I was undecided at first. Thank you for a great experience and tasty treat!

Do not go near this woman or her services!…read more I contracted with her to check on my Michiana home and use her cleaning and other services. She ghosted me several times--not answering when I called to ask her to check on the house. I even had a friend call to ask her to contact me and she said "I never heard of her!" She billed me more than she advertised. When I asked her to check on the house she told me all was well. But a few weeks after she said that when I asked to have the house cleaned...she told me my house was over run with rodents and her staff ran out screaming. How could the house be over run with rodents when weeks before it was fine? The answer--she wasn't really checking on my house. Then when I came out to investigate it turns out that her team or Lisa herself had left the basement door WIDE open during the polar vortex weather. Of course mice got in!!! She also had the temerity to charge me $90 for that aborted service. When I sent a handyman over--he found the back door WIDE open! And several windows cracked open as well. Avoid her like the plague!!! She is a charleton. She was very prompt only in sending bills--not doing the services that she promised to deliver. Stay away.
