Great Neighborhood & Beds
We booked without any issues, but was surprised 100% was due at booking nearly a year in advance. Loved the location/quiet neighborhood, the beds/bedding and hot hub hangout area. Kitchen sink needed some repairs along with the steps from hot tub to back yard. Upon arrival there was only a roll & half of toilet paper for 6 people for 3 nights😞 I also text the day of our arrival to ask if the golf cart was still available to rent & didn’t get a response. We would still stay again because we loved the home & location.

Beach trip
We booked last minute for a family trip. Location was good in proximity to the beach. The kids liked the hot tub a lot. The neighborhood was super quiet with mainly mid century modern homes on the street. House was great for our family. Thank you.

Close location to Indiana Dunes National Park
Great location if wanting to go to Indiana Dunes National Park or the beach. Naomi was easy to communicate with and check in was easy. The hot tub wasn’t working during our stay and Naomi tried to help with that problem but it was unable to be rectified during our stay to take advantage of it, but is giving us 2 free nights to make up for it. Our adult children did complain of hairs in and on the beds downstairs, so cleaning crew could do better. Otherwise, cleanliness was good. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was furnished fairly well but could benefit from increased glassware and coffee cups for large groups.

Cute Neighborhood...
Overall, we enjoyed our stay as a family in this home.The neighborhood is super cute and quiet and very close to the beach. However, there are a few things that need to change at the price point of this property.1.The house was not clean when we arrived. We had to wash the sheets on our bed (including the comforters) because they were dirty with hair on them).This was time consuming and NO ONE wants to do laundry when they are on vacation.2.There needs to be extra sheets and comforters in the home (CLEAN ONES) that is something almost every home I’ve stayed in has had. There were no extra sheets or comforters in this home.3.Add TVs in every room.This is just a part of the vacation feel! There isn’t even a TV in the living room.4. Directions need to be included on how to enter the home since the lock on the door is unconventional and there may be some people who don’t know you have to actually turn the deadbolt and not the door knob. We didn’t realize this and were waiting to get in after a long drive!5.Add in some more grill tools for the grill use (these can be purchased at the dollar store). 6.The water pressure at the kitchen sink needs to be addressed immediately. It runs from the faucet at a snail's pace and can be extremely frustrating for any family.The things I added here can make the stay that much more comfortable and make people feel like they are getting their money’s worth and that the host actually cares about their guests comfort and enjoyment. TY.

Cute home!
The place was great! Just what we needed. We did notice some cleanliness things, like we moved the couch for something and there was quite a bit of stuff under it. We also saw a chick fil a cup that wasn't ours in the house. However, we had a great time!! I think you are aware, but there it a leak under the sink, it looks like the pipe is leaking. It started spilling out from underneath the sink and it was a little wet under there. Thank you for letting us stay there!

Quick stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Miller Beach. The house was nice and clean. We did not use the hot tub but it appeared to be taken care of. The host was prompt to respond to any questions and even suggested a local pizza place Flamingo Pizza. We had carryout and it was fantastic. We would stay here again.

Another great stay with Naomi!
This is our second time renting from this owner and she’s always such a kind and accommodating host. Her houses have plenty of space, especially when you consider the finished basements and she’s communicative whenever there is something that needs to be fixed. It’s simple and easy being her guest. Would definitely recommend.
