Our family had a great time! We had a large group-8 adults, 9 kids…plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. Cannot beat the short distance to the beach! Kitchen is very small, but we made it work. We could have definitely used a second refrigerator, maybe in the basement for drinks to take to the beach. House was well-stocked, layout is kind of odd, but no complaints. We had a great time!

Family reunion beach stay
Such a fantastic home to spend the holiday with 3 generations of family. Andy and Amy are the most lovely people to share their dream beach home with others. House is even better in person than any picture could show.

We had an absolutely amazing stay with my big family. We ranged in age from 1-68 and everyone had a comfortable bed and no problem finding a bathroom near every bedroom. The kitchen was stocked with dishes, pots and pans and any other kitchen item you might need. There is an easy walk to the beach and a walkway that made pulling a wagon and pushing a stroller easy. The beach is gorgeous. I definitely recommend this beautiful home that easily accommodates 18 people.

Great Space for Family Vacation!
This home was perfect for a large family group. Our family got together for some summer time together. The location right at the beach was wonderful, it was a very easy walk to the water each day. The basement was stocked with beach towels and chairs and everything you could need. The rooms provide a lot of sleeping space for a large group. The large dining tables assured everyone had a seat. Overall we had a wonderful time, definitely going to ear mark this location for future trips!

Overall everything was great. Plenty of room for the whole family. Everything we needed was available in the home. Walk to the beach was easy & close. Hard time with internet, kept having to reset router daily. Very limited cell service.

Family Beach Weekend
I stayed here with my siblings, their spouses and our 13 children. This house was perfect-it was SO close to the beach…literally a 2 minute walk to the sand and another 3 minutes to get to the waterfront.
The mudroom was perfect to dump all the towels, chairs, sand toys and keep the rest of the house clean.
The dining area has 3 tables so plenty of space to sit and eat. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms making it ideal for a large group so everyone had their own space. The neighborhood was cute, clean and safe.

This house was great! We had 18 in our group…8 adults and 10 grandchildren ranging from 1 to 16. Plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of beds. The beach is just a very convenient short walk to the beach and no steps!!! We absolutely loved our week and already have booked for next year. Cari, the property manager, was easy to work with and very attentive to our needs. If I could I would give it 10 stars!!! Highly recommend.

Great location and house for a large group!
This was a great house for a family get together of 16 people! The location is great - quick and easy access (really couldn't be any closer) to a beautiful Lake Michigan beach. Cute neighborhood and friendly neighbors.
The kitchen is small and the bathrooms could use to be updated but nothing that impacted our stay negatively. We had 7 adults and 9 kids ranging from 1-16 and there were plenty of beds and easy sleeping space.
Owner/Property manager was very responsive and easy to work with. We would rent this house again!

Family Tradition
We had a great time! Andrew responded quickly to our every question, a couple of them because we failed to read the manual, lol. A small repair was needed on a railing (safety) and it was fixed almost immediately.
Pro’s; plenty of bathrooms, super easy walk to the beach, beach toy room, plenty of seating for meals, lots and lots of dishes, sunny gathering area.
Cons; not a cooks kitchen, very small kitchen, need to time showers to not lose pressure, limited outdoor space.
We’d stay here again and made some beautiful family memories here.

Family vacation
This is our second straihjt years for staying at this location. It is so ideal for our family. We have eight adults and 10 grandchildren and the house is very comfortable with plenty of room to play games, eat, sleep, relax, etc. it meets all of our needs, and then sell!
The closeness of the beach is a big selling point. It is about a 100 yard walk to the beach, which makes it very convenient for the parents to bring home their children for lunch, restroom breaks, naps, etc. plenty of room on the beach for our family of 18.
The owner is very easy to work with and always returns emails, phone calls, etc. immediately.
A big thumbs up from the Webber Family and we would give it 10 stars but we’re limited to only five!!!

Plenty of privacy but also great communal spaces for 14 adults to enjoy
Our family reunion brought together 14 adults (and one teen), who had a variety of needs and requests (1st floor bedrooms and baths; quiet, private corners; plenty of couches and large dining tables for hanging out and eating together, but also quiet, private corners). Everyone appreciated the quick walk to the uncrowded beach and the ample beach chairs and towels--and, on a day that turned dreary and rainy, lots of room to spread out comfortably for simultaneous board games and conversations. The host was graciously responsive to a couple of requests we had. Good A.C. overall and strong wifi, easy for everyone to connect to. We wished there had been a couple of beach umbrellas and, ideally (but we accepted as not possible on the lot) more outdoor space for our large group to gather outside. All in all, 117 Louisiana proved the best accommodation we've ever found for our family reunions, also for its convenient proximity to Chicago and airports.

Steps to the Lake
This was a perfect spot for walking to Lake Michigan. Steps away from the beach made the location ideal. Lots of seating for meals was helpful. Main floor and upper level bedrooms and bathrooms were adequate and clean. Upstairs sitting area was calm and peaceful.
Basement space wise was nice, however, when going into the basement there was a musty smell. The bathroom in the basement had a drain with standing water in it. When turning on the sink, water would gurgle in the drain. This drain also had a horrible smell that permeated the whole bathroom. If needing to use the basement space, would not recommend but if space in basement is not needed, this is a perfect spot for lake access. Neighborhood was also very quiet.
Host was very responsive when finding out about the drain, etc and sent a handyman to check it out.

Amazing location, great rental
This was a fabulous rental. The location is just a short walk (less than 1 block) to a really beautiful stretch of beach on Lake Michigan, and a 10 min walk from a cafe with outdoor seating and playground.
The house was well stocked with beach supplies (sand toys, beach chairs, beach towels, etc), and there was a hose outside by the stairs down to a basement mudroom and bathroom which really helped prevent sand from getting tracked all over the house.
The downstairs has a large open common room with three large tables and two living room seating areas - perfect for smaller groups to hold separate conversations during a large gathering. The entire wall on three sides of the downstairs is windows, facing the lake, so that you can have the lake breeze flow through the common room while you socialize. :)
The bedrooms were very comfortable and there were lots of bathrooms. There is also a cute deck and small garden area.
Our only critique would be that the kitchen is quite small and lacked a few cooking supplies. There are a lot of good restaurants in the area (e.g., nearby cafe, pizza/italian, mexican, jamaican), so the house seems set-up best for folks that mostly want to play on the beach, socialize, snack, and then either go out for meals or get take-out.
We would definitely come back - it was a wonderful vacation.

great little spot, close to beach
We had a great time in Michigan City and look forward to staying here again. The hosts were very helpful. The house on the website is portrayed accurately. Lots of sleeping space. Also, really liked the dining space. Our family group of 12 fit nicely. Multiple tables provide a game area, kid area to play and another table to dine at. Our favorite part was the very close walk to the beach and a great walkway to the water.. Very easy with little children. Also, the host had lots of beach towels, beach chairs and toys. Very convenient. The basement was a great area for a family w/ 3 kids. Overall, no complaints at all, and lots of praise for a great house close to beach. We also visited the zoo, splash pad was closed.

This home provided a bed to everyone in our large group and the location to the beach was ideal! The wifi was a little spotty with so many people in the house but overall the stay was great.
