Our Family Has Stayed Here 10 Times and We Love IT Our…read morelarger family has had our annual family vacation at the Blue Door Cottages since 2009. We normally book 6 - 8 cottages. This year was the best ever! The Blue Door Cottages are now owned and operated locally. The rooms are very clean and constantly being updated. The grounds are beautifully maintained. The manager Brent is be commended. He really goes out of his way to make all guests feel very welcome. He even drove out of his way to a local restaurant where we were having breakfast to say good bye to our familyl after our 3 night stay. Our whole family really loves the Blue Door Cottages and will be back in the summer of 2019. We would highly recommend a stay here if you happen to be in the area.

We rented the Squach House for our Independence Day wedding and reception. It was a multi day…read moreevent with our two very large families staying at least three days. The venue was a great value compared to all the other places we had considered. Plenty of space for the reception. We held the ceremony outside behind cabin 1 (Red Log Cabin). We rented six cabins for the week. Our wedding procession consisted of nearly a dozen vehicles rolling into the park immediately after the ceremony. The staff was nothing short of phenomenal. They went above and beyond in every possible way shape or form and stopped at nothing to make everything run smoothly and as easily as possible. They truly seemed as excited to have us as we were to be there for our big day. We were scheduled to leave on Thursday the 6th but Wednesday night all of our family was having such a great time, nobody wanted to leave. While not all the cabins we had been in were available to extend, they shuffled us around and got everyone accommodated and we ended up staying until Saturday. We'd originally been considering a Downtown Indy spot which would have run us well over $60,000 to host 100 people for 5 hours. We ended up with a much more fun, exciting, safer and friendlier place for less than a third. We decided to make it an annual event and have our families get together every Independence Day week. Check out Off The Trail for any weekend staycation or holiday getaway. You'll be nothing short of overwhelmed at the great time you'll have and the incredible value. We're going back in August and looking at possibility a Thanksgiving or Christmas getaway as well. Our deepest heartfelt thanks to everyone at Off The Trail for making our wedding day truly epoch. This level of excellent customer service is so rare anymore.

So, camping at the Bad Lands you don't have much of a choice but to stay at this campground. So of…read morecorse this is what we went with. We got a "premium spot" for our RV paying a lot more per night than the regular pull through sites. The site was larger than the regular sites but had no gravel parking spot and no picnic bench. Also it only had a tire rim as a burn pit. The other "non premium" sites have gravel, a picnic bench and a nice fire pit with cooking grates. It's currently pouring and when we step outside the RV we are in mud and puddles. We expressed our concerns with the office and were told that the sites were not finished. Which is fine but why with an unfinished site were we scammed with higher prices? My other issue is when you check in they make you wear a wrist band for your entire stay (for everyone). To camp, you have to wear a wrist band for your entire stay or they won't let you back into your camp. I've never stayed at a place that required that. It's ridiculous.

The people here are amazing and there's never a time where you don't know what to do. LCR is close to New Buffalo, so you can just drive to town and go shopping and get food. There are also awesome woods and dunes for you to hike nearby. LCR is really an awesome place!

We spent many hours outside on the screened in deck. A personal fire pit was available for our use. The swimming pools & lake provided a respite from the heat. The management schedules games & activities, and there are shuffle board & pickleball courts for pickup games. The bright stars lit up the night sky. I felt a nostalgic feel of camp days I experienced as a child. Book next summer's getaway weekend at Lakeside Cabins Resort today!!

Spider webs were so bad and they positioned the beds closed to them. The bed frame gave in on my my wife. They stapled straps to hold wood underneath the mattress together. The air conditioner looked like it was about to come out the wall and the recliners looks dirty as as shit. This should be a homeless shelter, not a resort.

I recently made the mistake of staying at this place during a family vacation. This is by far the…read moreworst hotel I have ever stayed in. We booked a 2 bedroom suite with access to a grill for cooking. Our grill was literally located in the gravel parking lot of the resort. The room was filthy and there was an infestation of yellow jackets under the porch light of our suite. The air conditioner broke on our second day. The maintenance man finally came at 10:30 at night to attempt to fix it. He cleaned the filter and told us to let them know if it is not cooler by morning. It was 88 degrees in the main room at 10:30 at night, and even worse in the other rooms. When we told him that was unacceptable, he got angry and yelled at us about going to buy a new air conditioner from walmart. I told him that he should go buy one becauase we cannot stay in rooms this hot. They wouldn't move us to an empty room because they said that their cleaner didn't finish cleaning any of the rooms that day, so there were no clean rooms available. THe maintenance man finally returned with a new air condidtioner, and installed it. This air conditioner worked. However, in the process of installing it in a rage, he cut himselft. THere was blood on the wall and on the door. While removing the old air conditioner, it leaked dirty water all over the floor and the futon. He replaced the futon and tried to wipe off the water on the floor with a bath towel. He left he blood for us to clean up though!. To top if off, the front desk said they would clean it up when we left. This place should be shut down. Disgusting, filthy, infested and incredibly rude staff. I am giving this place 1 star because it won't let me give zero stars.

The two houses are fantastic. We have stayed in both for different occassions and can't really decide which one is my favorite. They each have charm and comfort. If I had to make complaint it is there is little cell service for my kids ipads. And that means we have to play games, build fires, take walks and maybe read a book?! But really, is that a complaint when you are meant to enjoy the surroundings and getting away from the your hectic world? ps. Going to the surrounding small towns for lunch in free wifi is the perfect excuse for day excursions :)
