Wonderful!
We had a great time at this lovely home. The house was very clean and nicely updated and decorated. The basement area was an added bonus. Kyle was quick to respond to any questions. I highly recommend this home!

Nice updated house
Kids liked the pong pong. Kitchen and table good size for a group . Beds are new, but too low to the ground. J&J pizza place was amazing.

Family gathering
Inside was nicely decorated. One chair in the living room was sagging when you sat in it. The outside wasn't as nice. Grass needed cut and the weeds needed pulling. There were lots of maggots in the outside garbage can. Grass did get cut while we were there, but not the weeding. This house was not as nice as others we have stayed in.

Sweet and convenient
The open living area and full kitchen was a huge plus for our family group of 9 adults. We loved the big table and made good use of the kitchen for breakfasts and for preparations for an extended family holiday. With 3 couples and 3 singles, it was a bit tight, but it's hard to find a place that has enough bedrooms, and this one is a great value at the right location. Please note that the 3rd bathroom does NOT have a shower. We would stay here again and recommend it for the right size group!

Cute & Close to Town
My family of 5 were in town for our kids’ swim meet. We prefer to stay in Valparaiso for all the great dining options. Kyle, the owner is attentive and quick to answer any questions or concerns. Home was stocked with all the basic essentials and was quite comfortable for our stay.

Everything we needed!
The house was perfect for a group of 5. Had everything we needed. The host answered all of our questions and was very accommodating. Location was near downtown with all the restaurants and shops, but still quiet. Couldn't have asked for much more!

A lovely home for an expanding family
We were in town for Thanksgiving visiting family. This home was a perfect place for my immediate family to be able to spread out as we (our wives and children) no longer fit in our parents' home.

Reading Escape
Had a group of friends and book lovers who all joined together for a weekend of reading! Had dinner at a library themed restaurant, Stacks Bar & Grill that was phenomenal! (Make reservations!) Also checked out the downtown area and shops. The house was perfect, accurate descriptions, clean, very responsive and helpful owners. Highly recommend!

Great space in Valpo
We came with our 3 adult kids to explore Indiana Dunes NP and the two cideries in Valpo for Labor Day weekend. This property was fantastic! It looks pretty small from the outside, but it was anything but on the inside! 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and great community space on both floors, with ping-pong and football downstairs. Downtown was easily walkable and the neighborhood was quiet. Communication and check-in/out with the owner was easy. We would absolutely stay here again!

Good time in Valpo
Very nice place to stay. Five adults stayed comfortably, could have easily accommodated more.
A couple of minor quibbles: TV was a pain...you can only watch streaming services with your own accounts (free Roku channel doesn't really cut it), and a couple of missing nice-to-haves...no corkscrew, for example, that we could find.
Neighborhood is OK, and the walk is a bit to downtown, probably not an issue for most people, but too far for some members of our group.
