It was a great location for my friends and as in we meander a bit around Michigan and Indiana this summer. The home was lovely and incredibly comfortable for four adult friends! Claudia was really great to work with and so hospitable! Saving this location for a future stay!House was more then adequately stocked probably better than anywhere I’ve ever stayed!

A true cozy home away a from home

We came up from Cincinnati for a little get away before school started back for the year. Everything was perfect. Claudia is amazing and the love and work she has poured into the house shows in every inch of the house. We plan to return in the future!

Claudia is very hospitable, and her "Home Away from Home" is quite lovely. Not only did Claudia take the time to meet us and personally explain the unique details of the property, but she also offered to make a grocery run for us! Her property is unique and full of character. She keeps it clean and well-stocked with supplies for the bathrooms and kitchen. Having baby items available to use was also very thoughtful. We would have loved to have used the fire pit and tandem bike amenities, but time did not allow. Thank you, Claudia, for providing a care-free and comfortable stay.

Neat house and great host.

My wife and I and four teenage girls were traveling from southern Illinois to northern Michigan and needed a place to stay that had enough beds and rooms to handle our group. We were fortunate to find this really cool house. It has lots of character and plenty of room. The host, Claudia, was amazing. She communicated with us throughout the process and made us feel so welcome. The neighborhood and the town were really cool. We wish we had more time to stay and joy the house and area. We would definitely recommend

What a fabulous home to stay in! Rich in history & full of all the amenities you could need, provided by the owner. Tandem bike was so fun and the bonfire at night in the yard was a hit with us too! I honestly can't wait to visit again! Highly recommend !

Victorian Grace in LaPorte

We passed through LaPorte on our way to N. Michigan for one night only, and this listing made it very reasonable to do for our family of six. The fees were very reasonable making it a better value than multiple hotel rooms. Claudia couldn't have been more gracious and we were able to enjoy the nearby main strip and Pine Lake views during our short stay. The house has been well restored and the kids found it very interesting. Enjoy!

Charming home in historic neighborhood

We stayed at this home for a long weekend to attend a softball tournament. Our group included my family with kids and my parents. The home was well appointed for all of us (however, the staircase is steep, which may be a challenge for older guests). The home is spacious with all amenities needed for a large group. Comfortable beds and bathrooms. We had a lovely stay. Claudia went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. She’s super communicative and made our check in and out a breeze. The home itself is in a lovely neighborhood with beautiful, historic homes. We enjoyed walking/biking the neighborhood in the evening. I’d highly recommend this home.
