"Staff was super helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and the kitchen was good. However I booked a non smoking area room and signed a paper for that but unfortunately it smelled like cigarettes in my room. The couch had the smell and it was very strong all around not pleasant. There were fights in front of my door at night sometimes and someone did knock on my door at 2 am and left randomly making me feel unsafe."

Top Indiana Dunes Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Spring House Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Spring House Inn is definitely somewhere that my family will stay again. It was clean, the staff was friendly, breakfast was good and we loved that we had a balcony, even on the ground floor! It has a nice pool with a whirlpool and sauna. It is an older building, but is well kept. There are plenty of nice places around the building to sit outside and enjoy the weather. Inside has many places to sit and enjoy as well. I loved the decor - all of the antique items on display. The fact that it is close to the Dunes and several places to eat is a plus! We live in a nearby city, but needed a place to get away to when our power went out in the big storm that hit NW Indiana. We are so glad we chose Spring House Inn!"

Quality Inn Chesterton near Indiana Dunes National Park I-94

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel and clean"

Furness Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"We had a comfortable stay at the Furness Mansion. Very close to Indiana Dunes National Park and also nearby points of interest. The unit is spacious with free use of washer & dryer located at the entrance of the building. The only thing negative is the response time from the hosts. I sent a couple of messages and never received a response. My inquiries were not critical but a simple response would have been nice as a courtesy."
