Couldn't have had a better experience! We rented out both the cabin and the lookout and it was perfect. The cabins are very up to date and comfortable. We were so close to the lake and had a great time walking our dogs along the beach and hanging out by the water. Any little questions we had, they answered immediately. Highly recommend staying here! read more

Water, Water Everywhere, Leaking from the Ceiling and Up From the Floors - 400 Beachwalk, Michigan City, 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. read more

Quick responses from the staff helped me feel more secure and supported. Staying in a new area, it was nice to have the correspondence. The house was adequate for our stay & had everything we needed and more! The location of the house to everything in town and the beach was good! I will rent from this company again. read more

Horrible customer service. The owner treated me like trash when I expressed frustration over high prices and restrictive check in and check out times. He behaved like a child and told me to cancel my reservations and I wasn't cut out for vacation rentals and might he recommended a motel. Such lack of respect. He clearly can't handle criticism of any kind and on top of it people had been complaining of multiple issues with his rentals in the reviews. I do not recommend this company at all. read more

I have rented in Union Pier every summer for at least a decade and Third Coast is among the best. The level of customer service communication before and during the stay is outstanding. Rates for all houses in Union Pier are high - I appreciated that Third Coast's additional fees were not on the higher end. The house we rented was clean and cared for and the welcome bag was a very nice touch. read more

An adorable flat in beautiful Grand Beach. They thought of everything. Perfect for the two of us. A bottle of wine and a bagful of snacks we're waiting for us on arrival and that set the tone for the rest of our stay. A short walk to the beach. A short drive to restaurants and antique shops. We had a lovely time. read more

Third Coast is the best. They walked us through every part of the home, what was available in the area and from them. When we arrived we thought we knew what to expect but the house was beyond anything. Absolutely clean, well equipped, had plenty of room to enjoy meals and down time with our family. Third Coast is now our go-to whenever and everywhere in beautiful Michigan. So appreciate your hospitality! read more

My team and I stayed at the Three Oaks, MI location and could hardly have enjoyed it more. The home fit our needs, with plentiful bed space, a living room and main room, enclosed back porch of and a huge well appointed kitchen. As well as 4 bathrooms! We didn't have hot water the first morning as the water heater was inadvertently turned off, but they came right out and rectified the situation causing us no stress. They are terrific to work with. I would recommend Third Coast Vacations to anyone. read more

perfect vacation home. Spacious, well equipped, comfortable beds and the town of New Buffalo was charming. Third Coast was responsive to all concerns. I would not hesitate to use their service again for future vacations. read more
