Comfort Inn La Porte

10/10 Excellent

"As expected- excellent!"

The Blue Heron Inn

8/10 Good

"Very friendly staff, spacious room, beautiful lake view, slightly dated room with jacuzzi in main bed area and real keys to the door. Had all you need (refrigerator, microwave, buffet breakfast with real scrambled eggs and variety of food - yogurt, waffles, pastries, coffee/juice). Small exercise area upstairs. No elevator. Lovely walking area / Unity Park right next door with about .25mile loop and can walk right next to water!"

Blue Chip Casino Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great place, rooms were clean! Close to restaurants and the Lake."

Hampton Inn & Suites Michigan City

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel room was huge and beautiful, however, the refrigerate didn't keep our food and sodas cold; no one was on site to look at it so we just dealt with having to drink room temperature drinks. Other than that we really enjoyed staying at the hotel, it's only 20 minutes away from the Four Wind Casino, which was our reason for coming."
