Review Submitted: October 25, 2007 Date of Stay: October 2007
Coming from Minnesota, we are always hopeful that when we travel some distance our VRBO selection meets our expectations. Being that this rental was in one of favorite places, Beverly Shores, we anticipated having a great time. Our expectations were exceeded. The Marys have provided a retreat as warm and comfortable as any home you may find. From the cozy living room with a great fireplace to the bright and cheery kitchen to the private outdoor spa, it all made for a great long weekend. If we could arrange for more trips, we would like to soak in the views and soak in the spa each season.

Thanks Mary and Mary for opening your special place to us.

Our ninth stay!!

Review Submitted: January 1, 2012 Date of Stay: December 2011
So many great family memories have been made at "our" cabin!! It feels like home every time we enter.

It's half way between our Michigan and Illinois homes ~ couldn't be more convenient.

Thanks to the two Mary's who own it! Very easy and pleasant to work with.

Everything a chef could want!!

Review Submitted: December 3, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
Our way too short stay was amazing. I cooked an entire Thanksgiving Dinner and there was everything I needed to prepare the feast. Most places I've stayed in the past have had limited kitchen supplies. The house was stocked with everything I could of wanted. Very quaint cozy and warm home. The fireplace and hot tub are the obvious special amenities, but the entire place was filled with all the comforts of home!!

Owner's Response: If I had known you were cooking I would have stopped by. Thank you for the great review and I hope you'll choose our property again. Happy Holidays. Mary & Mary

HI Mary,

We had a fabulous time - even with the iffy weather. It was a great space and the kids loved it. They even had good naps each day, which is an achievement! LOL. We found everything we needed. We would definitely love to come back again - maybe even in late Spring or Summer.

Thanks again for everything. I'll be in touch when the time comes for travels again.
cheers, Janet

Great Anniversary!!!

Review Submitted: September 28, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
My wife and I needed a place near Chicago to spend our 6th anniversary. We lucked out with this great house in the Indiana Dunes! The house is seriously comfy. The hot tub was great, even if the weather wasn't perfect (rain...a lot). But we still were able to hike the dunes, cook a dinner, and enjoy our time together. We also got to bring our dog, which was a key to this vacation. Michigan City is nearby and allowed us some quick shopping and a great dinner and brew at the Shoreline Brewery. Our only problem was the gas grill either didn't seem to be working properly, or we were too stupid to start all the burners. Maybe the gas was low. Other than that, the weekend was great and we certainly hope to stay there in the future again! It's a clean, well stocked cabin. Fantastic!

Owner's Response: Nathan,

Thank you for the review. I will check on the grill. It is an electric start so perhaps the battery needs replacement. I appreciate you letting us know. I hope you will return to our property and I appreciate the great review. Happy Anniversary.
