Victorian Grace in LaPorte
We passed through LaPorte on our way to N. Michigan for one night only, and this listing made it very reasonable to do for our family of six. The fees were very reasonable making it a better value than multiple hotel rooms. Claudia couldn't have been more gracious and we were able to enjoy the nearby main strip and Pine Lake views during our short stay. The house has been well restored and the kids found it very interesting. Enjoy!

Brought the grandkids to my homeland for the week. We did a lot of things in and around LaPorte most of which involved water but when I asked my oldest granddaughter what her favorite part was she said it was the house!

Charming home in historic neighborhood
We stayed at this home for a long weekend to attend a softball tournament. Our group included my family with kids and my parents. The home was well appointed for all of us (however, the staircase is steep, which may be a challenge for older guests). The home is spacious with all amenities needed for a large group. Comfortable beds and bathrooms. We had a lovely stay. Claudia went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. She’s super communicative and made our check in and out a breeze. The home itself is in a lovely neighborhood with beautiful, historic homes. We enjoyed walking/biking the neighborhood in the evening. I’d highly recommend this home.

Fantastic!
Stayed for a long weekend with my groomsmen/groomswomen for my wedding! The place was absolutely lovely. It was clean, the house is bigger than it seems in the pictures, and Claudia (owner) was super kind and thoughtful. She gave us a wonderful tour of the place when we first checked in and made sure we knew that if we needed literally anything, all we had to do was reach out. Definitely recommend!

This old house needs help
Claudia was a great communicator and basic areas of the house were clean. Other than that, we cannot recommend this property. The online photos were misleading. The air conditioner, dish washer, and bedroom TV did not work properly. The furniture was run down, the house was only partially painted and patched together with poorly done tile, woodworking and wallpaper. There was an odd musty smell that might have come from garage sale items everywhere, especially in the formal living room. My husband and I are experienced rental property hosts. Our opinion is that this old house needs a lot of work to justify the listed price per night.
