Family-friendly vacation rentals in Starke County

Excellent location, great space, responsive host.

10/10 recommend staying here if you’re looking for a place 45 minute drive into Chicago. Hot tub was the perfect addition. Would definitely stay here again

Wonderful surroundings, great views, awesome hot tub, and excellent hosts. We had such a great time! Rob and Carrie were very responsive and very relaxed with our check-in and check-out. They were willing to be flexible since no one else was staying there before us or after us which made everything so much less stressful. Thank you so much and looking forward to staying there again!

Great house with lots amenities. Hilary was very responsive and accommodating.

This cabin stay was exactly as described and super charming! We were only there for one night but the area was very peaceful and we enjoyed saying hi to our adorable sheep neighbors. Linda, the host, gave great instructions and the cabin was easy to access. Wish we had time to stay a little longer! Thanks, Linda!

We loved it here! Easy walk to the beach and 10 mins from the nat park! Insanely perfect!

Loved staying here. Very easy check out

This is my second time coming here! It’s a great place to disconnect and get away for the weekend. Linda is a great host and great to talk to. I will definitely be back again.

Had a great stay with a group of my friends, was a nice private location where we could play music and have fun without complaints. Was close enough to city to be able to get Ubers. Host was very helpful and responsive as well as flexible with the time that we were checking in.

Great place to stay. It's clean and has everything you need. It's just a regular house which is great! It's not some over decorated attempt at being a vacation destination that you feel you have to tiptoe around to not break a bunch of decorative junk. Will definitely be staying here again if needed in the future.

Very clean and as advertised. You can get to the beach either through the scenic route, which is walking over some dunes (hills) or via a sidewalk on a street, with no hills. They have an app that provides a lot of information about the area.

Very nice place to stay--wish we could have stayed longer!

nice clean and debbie is a wonderful host

I recently stayed at this charming 3-bedroom cabin with a loft, and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the coziest vibes. The cabin is beautifully decorated, blending rustic charm with modern touches, making it feel like a home away from home. The spacious open living area was perfect for the 6 of us. Each of the three bedrooms was incredibly comfortable, with soft bedding and plenty of natural light. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials. Overall, this cabin exceeded all of our expectations. Kevin and Vicky were very responsive and kind. Will definately book with them again if in the area. Highly recommend!

Greg was an amazing host. He and his wife are clearly professional grandparents. The home was beautiful for our three generation family. The downstairs playroom was a life saver. The house was clean and well set up for guests. They wrote helpful notes and provided clear instructions. We cannot thank Greg enough for sharing his lovely home with us. We also loved the fairy garden in the trees and beautiful backyard. 10/10 recommend

Excellent location, comfortable. Great porch.

My husband and I spent a wonderful month in this terrific guest house. It was a Winter Wonderland with beautiful views of the lake and nature all around. Deer were routinely spotted in the front yard. Inside, the stone fireplace provided a perfect location for a roaring fire each day! Delightful is the only way to describe the interior of the house. The living/dining area is comfortable and nicely decorated. The house is well thought out for guests with plenty of linens, a complete bathroom for each of the two downstairs bedrooms and a more than adequate kitchen with starter supplies. We especially appreciated the washer and dryer right off the kitchen area. The photos on the website are accurate as to the appearance of the interior. The owner was very responsive to our questions and ready with suggestions as to where to eat, and activities. We will be renting this summer and next winter.

Bruce’s home was exceptionally clean and quiet. The space was perfect for our family of 4, including teenagers, plus guests. The front porch, backyard and yard games he made available were an added bonus. Bruce was quick to respond to questions. I would definitely stay here again when in the area and recommend to others.

Absolutely enjoyed my stay…would definitely stay again! Such a beautiful and peaceful setting.

We enjoyed our stay for the weekend. The home was comfortable and spotless. We'd love to stay here again in the future!
