29mi from Chesterton · 2 sites · Lodging · Sawyer, MI
I become owner of this property in 2017. The cabins were built in the late 90's financed by the previous owner. The property was vacant for decades prior to that. In the 1950's, the property was a drive-in motel called the 'Harbert Motel'. We have an arial photo from this time period which showed a number of small bungalows for guests, each with its own carport. I love all the stories I hear from locals who have been around long enough to remember how things 'used to be'. Southwest Michigan has an interesting history and has been a 'destination' from city dwellers for close to 100 years. Even Al Capone and his goon's frequented the area as they moved illegal good during the days of prohibition. Learn more about this land: Breweries, Wineries, Berry Picking, Art Studios, Farmers Markets, hiking trails, biking trails, Lake Michigan boating, kayaking, fishing, canoeing.......all those things and more await you in Southwest Michigan. We have 6 'tiny house' style cabins on 1-acre property we call - Harbor Country Cabins. Harbor Country Cabins is located along the Lake Michigan Wine Trail. Our resort offers a unique lodging and gathering location in the center of Harbor Country, near Southwest Michigan’s premier destination for beaches, breweries, wineries, dining and summer fun. With 12 queen bunk and 4 twin bunk beds spaced across 6 cabins, our property can hold up to 28 people. Price in this listing is for rental of all 6 cabins.

Glamping at its best. This lot is at the highest point over looking the lake. This travel trailer sleeps 6. Made for children, the park offers a lake for fishing, boat rentals, beach, swimming pools, game room, mini-golf, kids activities, and more. Air conditioning when it is cold, heat when it is hot, stay dry on a rainy day, inside bathroom. Is this really camping? It is more like Glamour Camping; Glamping. Only 45 minutes from Chicago, and 10 minutes to the Indiana Dunes State Park. This is a nice travel trailer that has two bunk beds in the rear, a dinette and couch that converts to sleepers, and a front bedroom with a queen size bed. Sheets/blankets are supplied, clean towels for up to four people are provided. There is a fire pit, charcoal grill (you have to supply your own charcoal) and gazebo that you can use. Although you are on the lake, you do not have direct access to the lake. Parking is located on the grassy area across the road from the lot. The campground is between the highway and train, so you will hear both day and night with a lot of golf cart traffic. Guest must follow all campground rules, no refunds will be issued. You will have access to all the amenities of the park including use of the pools, beach, and park. Cost of the miniature golf course is not included. There is a restaurant at the park that serves fast food and deserts.

Lakeshore Retreat

3. Lakeshore Retreat

45mi from Chesterton · 1 site · RV · Bremen, IN
Come find your home away from home at our peaceful lakeside campsite! Nestled on the shores of a beautiful all-sport lake, our campsite offers the perfect escape. Wake up to stunning water views and spend your days casting a line for the abundant walleye and bluegill. Whether you're an experienced angler or just starting out, this is a fisherman’s paradise. Beyond the water, you’ll discover a world of local charm. We’re just a short 15-minute drive from Rentown, a small Amish community where you can enjoy a delicious homemade meal and browse unique stores. If you’re visiting in late summer, you’re in luck — we’re only 15 minutes from the excitement of the annual Blueberry Festival in Plymouth, IN, held over Labor Day weekend. And for all the Fighting Irish fans, our location is a game-day dream. You’re just a quick 40-minute drive from Notre Dame Stadium, so you can easily catch the action. Book your spot today and get ready for a memorable camping trip filled with relaxation, adventure, and the best of Indiana’s local culture!
