Another terrific stay in a perfect location to visit family in the south Chicago suburbs and in NW Indiana. Great communication with the host throughout our time in Miller Beach. The house had everything we needed, plus more!

The home and area were beautiful. Unfortunately, the attitude of Elena was not as desirable. There was a gas leak and while Elena did call the gas company, she refused to her have her maintenance man visit the property on the first night. Instead he came on Saturday morning and disturbed sleeping guests for a bit. We had to have our own person stop by to say they were maintenance to avoid having the gas completely shut off until morning. We had to pay our local person for his inconvenience which Elena said she wanted to at least tip him, and this never happened. On Sunday we honored an 81 year old guest with outdoor music from 5 - 6:30 pm. Shortly before 6 pm Elena called and said she received complaints. AT 6 PM? I verified noise ordinances are in place beginning 9 pm - 9 am. Seems quite odd that we were called around 6 pm when it was early and not very loud. We asked for a bit of a refund for our inconvenience and Elena declined, offering a menial amount, refusing to negotiate and then discontinuing communication. I have never used VRBO before and since all communication was with the host I did not even think that we would be looking for alternate accommodations. Elena tried to blame guests about timing if notifying her and such. There is no blame for people who paid in advance and could not even turn in the stove to cook for senior citizens either health concerns because of the gas danger. Elena was interested in her review rather than guest comfort/safety.

The house was very nice. The set up was laid back. Only a small walk to the beach. Elena loves her art which made my boyfriend love the stay even more bc of his appreciation for art. We will most definitely be back. Thanks for welcoming us! See you soon!

Elena was a very helpful and responsive hostess. The home was located next to an easy path to the beach. It took just a few minutes to walk, even with young children and a wagon. The outdoor shower made sand removal quick and easy. The patio/backyard was a wonderful place for the children to play while we cooked meals. We spent time visiting and playing games with family at the large tables. The parking area was level and had plenty of room. The home amenities exceeded our expectations. From dish soap to Kleenex, this home was ready for guests to relax and enjoy. We hope to see you again! ~ The Petty/Johnson family had a wonderful time!

This was our yearly 4th of July family vacation to Miller Beach. This house was awesome!! Elena has everything you need in her home and it was super clean, which was super important to us. Her home is located across the street from the beach with a super easy path to the beach. She is always a text or phone call away if you need anything. Perfect for family with kids. She has a great patio for grilling and hanging out, bikes to ride, Beach Toys, etc. We will definitely love to rent her house again. My only suggestion is that if you plan on renting and you like to watch tv or movies, bring something to watch on, because this home only has one tv in the basement. We knew this ahead of time, so we all would watch movies at night on our ipads/phones/laptops etc. It was such a great time, cant wait to do it again :) Thank you Elena for sharing your home with us.

We loved staying at Elena’s beach house, just steps from beautiful Lake Michigan! The house is absolutely lovely—plenty of space for our family to gather for meals, lounging, and to play games, both inside and out (the patio is gorgeous!!). The artwork and decor are very cool and make this home a definite step up from other rentals we’ve had in both Miller Beach and Union Pier, MI. Comfy beds, updated bathrooms, and an excellent stocked kitchen (great for cooks like us!) made the stay extra enjoyable. Elena is very welcoming, helpful, and responsive. Our teen and tween both said her beach house is their favorite place we’ve stayed in 10 years! We can’t wait to come back!

Couldn't ask for a better location for a beach vacation. The beach and water was great. The neighborhood was nice. The kitchen was fantastic for a large group. The outdoor shower was nice when coming back from the beach. The outdoor space was nice and provided a good place for meals and hanging out. We had a couple of home maintenance issues that could happen at any home while we were there and the host was responsive. The host is very accommodating and will let you know of home procedures as well as local suggestions. Our family had a good time together on our vacation here.
