Great stay for our needs
We needed to house a few people for a work trip. Host was very responsive before and throughout our stay. House was clean and comfortable. Would stay here again if needed and recommend the house to anyone else looking for a good location close to the nice beach.

Very Accomodating
Me and 3 of my "girlfriends" stayed at the house. We found everything to be as stated in the info. It was nice to have the larger comfy beds and all the baths to accommodate. The house was well supplied with everything we needed ( except I couldn't find a liquid measuring cup). Lovely place to stay at and lots of towns to visit close by for choices to eat at some unique restaurants. Oh and so close to the beach with great access!!!

A Wonderful Family Vacation in a Beautiful Home on the Lake
Elena's home was lovely equipped with al the thoughtful amenities for the kitchen, game room, dining area and sitting room. Her outside Zen patio was such a highlight for outdoor gatherings. Her interior home is spacious and beautiful, only a stone's throw away from Lake Michigan. The swimming was fabulous too. We are deeply grateful for our stay in this beautiful home.

Miller Beach Lake Home by Elena
Elena's home at Miller Beach was the perfect home and place for our family getaway. The house was AMAZING, clean, very updated and had all the space we needed everywhere. It is a block from the beach. The neighbors and area are beautiful. The sunrise and sunsets are AMAZING. Elena is a fabulour host- we will return!!! :)

Beachy Art Museum Fun House
My sister and I rented the house for Thanksgiving week because our 91yr old Grammie lives in NW Indy. We needed a 1st floor friendly space to host turkey dinner and hangout with aunts uncles and cousins. Elena’s house on the beach was PERFECT for us!!! The basics started at clean updated bathrooms with nice linens, comfortable beds with newish pillows, functional kitchen that 2+ people easily fit, and plenty of seating that didn’t feel crowded. All that and then some. Just a few of the bonus awesome features we loved are the hat collection in the giant bathroom, all the wonderful eclectic interesting artwork, the large capacity washer & dryer, and all the unique serving ware and dishes tucked into the huge kitchen cabinets. Thank you. We loved it, and I know we will leave Texas again to come visit this house for sunny warm summer beach days very soon!

Loved the king size beds, expansive kitchen, and amazing artworks throughout the house. Lake Michigan is visible from the house, and just a short walk to the beach. A five minute drive takes you to Indiana Dunes National Park with miles of trails and more beach front.

Getaway
Our family of 7 stayed and enjoyed thoroughly. Not only is Elena most accommodating, her home is beautiful and comfortable. Lots of room for everyone to have their space if wanted. Short walk to the most beautiful beach. To say this was a great family getaway is an understatement as it was above and beyond my expectations.

Perfect for a Spring Break getaway!
Perfect location to enjoy the beach and visit the Indiana Dunes! The house is super close to the beach access and our kids loved walking the beach every day. It was an easy trip over to Chicago and South Bend, and we spent a day enjoying the Indiana Dunes NP. The host was very accommodating and friendly. She was responsive in her communication and sent recommendations of restaurants and other things to enjoy in the area. We look forward to staying here again!

Great place to relax
The house and amenities were great - the best amenities I’ve seen at a rental. Everything you need is provided and top notch. From a Ninja blender to facial cleansing clothes and aluminum foil, we had everything we needed. The beach was so easy to get to, and was far away from the public parking so it was not busy at all. My only suggestion is to update the entry doors (main door and basement door) to a lock with a code for entry. Using the traditional lock box and managing a key was not ideal. We really enjoyed the gardens and art inside and out. I especially loved the railroad tie art in the garden…gave me inspiration for my own yard.

Beautiful place and very well appointed. Large private patio off the back with multiple sitting areas. Landscapes lended to the peacefulness. Then there’s the beach with the entrance path just across the street. Elena was great with instructions to get in and quickly answering our questions. Strongly recommend.

What a wonderful time at the Lakeshore beach house!
We came here to celebrate my daughter’s Sweet 16 and had absolute amazing time. The home was comfortable and clean. It is very spacious and allows for you to move around the home freely. The girls loved it and have already asked to go back again! Elena was simply wonderful. I will definitely be back. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy your home!

Pretty much the beach house of your dreams
This Miller Beach home is a very short walk away from one of the most beautiful and uncrowded beaches in the Dunes. The sunny, airy house offers beach toys (but not beach towels!) galore and an outdoor shower. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is super well-equipped, and the house is full of personal touches. It is very well kept up. Our host, Elena, kept in touch, which we appreciated. We enjoyed eating outside on the large, lighted patio, and the kids loved the rabbit who hangs out in the back yard. There were 6 of us--larger parties should know that the two downstairs bedrooms are dark and feel isolated. Shopping is about a 20-minute drive away; the only nearby restaurant is not family-friendly. These are quibbles--we spent 10 days there and enjoyed every minute.

Sibling Trip.
We had a great time at this house. Other than a little hiccup at check in everything else was fine. The 3 bathrooms in the house are upscale. Full body shower was amazing. Other than sleeping we spent most of our time on the patio. Weather was great. Mentioned to Elena about how nice it would be to have a firepit on patio. Would stay there again if we are back in that area.
