Waterfront vacation rentals in Gary

This property is beautiful and cozy, and it's within walking distance to many attractions. The beach and coffee shops are just a couple of examples. Our host, Amy, provided excellent hospitality; she is very informative, friendly, and checked in periodically to ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible. I would definitely come back to this place again! 🤍

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is great - right across the street from the river, with a river view from the apartment. The place was well stocked. Every room had a power strip with multiple plugs, so it was very easy access for charging devices, etc. It is the 2nd floor of an early 20th century building with nice, historical character. The furniture suits the period, there are plenty of beds and a TV in each room. The place was well stocked with plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. Tom was very helpful and accommodating for our stay.

Cozy condo on the lake! Kitchen was stocked, and even had a treat basket!

Great place, and area. The place was clean and very spacious!

Great place to stay! Can get anywhere in the city, its right off the "L". Not far from Michigan Ave, either. Would highly recommend this place to anyone who is traveling to Chicago.

This place was beautiful! The furniture and decor were so pretty and very clean as well! Nothing was dirty, it felt very homey as well! Craig was an amazing host, our designated spot was being taken up by another vehicle but Craig informed us very quickly about the unmetered parking on the street! Will definitely have to stay with him again!

This was a beautiful place with an excellent view of Lake Michigan. Both rooms had comfortable beds and setup with everything you need. Kitchen is well stocked, but we mostly ordered Grub Hub, lol. Loved spending time here and great place to hangout and chat with friends. It is right on the water and we really enjoyed watching the waves crash against the barrier. It is on the 2nd floor, but the stairs are not bad at all. Felt very safe and having the parking space is a great perk. Very commutative and checked in with us to make sure everything was fine. Would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay!!! The unit is spacious, clean and comfortable! Lots of natural light! Carla was very responsive to our requests and questions. We loved walking through the park, and the location is very convenient to many areas. Definitely hope to return and stay longer next time!!

I loved the place, the location, everything was amazing!!!

The location was great—lots of things to. And such a beautiful view! We had everything we needed and I especially appreciated the very nice cookware.

Very pleasant stay over Thanksgiving while visiting family. Quiet, peaceful lake setting (even though it was very cold out and no swimming in the lake at 20 degrees!).. It was a good place to rest after the noise and activity of our large family 3 day gathering!

We greatly enjoyed our week at Lakeside and highly recommend it. The home was beautiful and the views of Lake Michigan are pristine. We highly recommend this home. One note for future renters: there is a steep walk up the sand from the beach to get to the stairs. Pretty typical for the area but it was more difficult for the grandparents than just stairs - even with handrails.

this was so perfect! i came here to celebrate my birthday with my friends and we had so much fun ! everything was clean and organized when we got there and it was such a cozy and comfortable place !

The River House is a real treat. We loved our stay there and Rhiannon was a very responsive and friendly host. We had everything we needed and being right on the Kankakee River was a bonus. The decor in the house is really cute and stylish. The beds were comfy and the shower was nice and hot with great water pressure. We felt right at home.

We love this property! Cozy, restful and beautiful are an acurate description. I appreciate being right on the water. It is a gorgeous retreat and beautifully appointed for a lake house. Our host was very responsive and welcoming. Thank you, Jeremy! We would love to come back and visit again. Jenny, Clair and Seth

Lovely stay, as always.

William has a fabulous place that was perfect for what we needed. Clean, plenty of linen and towels for when we needed it, and every supply we could ask for. Yes, the train was next door, but surprisingly didn't interrupt anything for us, so I'd say that description was accurate. We would absolutely stay here again.

Alexa was an awesome host. Her location is even nicer than the photos show. The indoor parking was a great amenity and the living room had great views of the river. Easy drive/walk to downtown with lots of restaurants and breweries. Alexa is very responsive and made check in/out very easy.

We had a wonderful week in this condo! All of the extras - snacks, spices in the cabinet, extra beach towels, several different types of coffeemakers - were greatly appreciated. The cabinets had many choices of mugs, glasses, plates and bowls. We also loved that there were several locations with a light on a dimmer (Dining room, living room). Having a washer and dryer available down the hall was also a plus. The porch is fantastic! So relaxing,. The sofa cushions for the porch are perfect and easily accessible. The gas grill was also great for cookouts and dinners watching the sunset. There is a really nice overlook area if you don't want to walk all the way down to the beach, easy to get to by walking around to the other side of the building. We got some great northern lights pictures from that lookout. Patty was always helpful and easily accessible - answering any questions I had within the hour, sometimes in just minutes!

Kaye was a great host! apartment was as advertised, bonus that she had coffee pods, bottled water and some snacks. we were in town to visit Loyola, which was an easy walk. convenient to train, as well. street parking is tricky if you come in late, but that is typical for the neighborhood. would definitely stay here again!

My best friend celebrated her birthday this weekend and we were looking for a relaxing place to getaway. Our condo was exactly what we needed! Joel was helpful and quick to respond to every question we had! The location was very private and we felt safe. There was absolutely no disruptions! Our favorite part of the weekend was after our adventures during the day we had a lovely environment to return to and the fireplace to sit by and unwind. Thank you for this amazing location......highly recommend!

Great place for a girls weekend! Nice and spacious perfect place for family as well. Would definitely rent again!

WWWWOOOWWW!! This host team was EXCEPTIONAL! I’ve stayed in plenty of AirBnBs, and I’ve NEVER encountered a host that was so EXTREMELY accommodating, responsive, and kind! Other hosts should take a page out of their book! The only thing I would change, and it’s not a bad thing (just a matter of preference); I would have some type of blinds or drapes over the living room windows. This will allow for privacy when you’re sitting in the living/dining room areas at night with the lights on inside. Hands down, we would without a doubt book with this team again! Thank you Wendy, Matt, and your co-hosts for helping to make our time in Chicago wonderful!

Cannot speak highly enough of this space! It was HUGE! Beautiful and very convenient! The Red line and Green Line train stations are both within easy walking distance. From either we could get to anywhere we wanted to go with transfers. The Hosts were responsive and flexible with an early check in(with a fee) and understanding when we woke up late and checked out 20 minutes late. They had several recommendations for places to eat, see and things to do. Hope to be back!
