Great location

Our family loved this rental. We all had our own rooms and bathrooms. The kitchen is great for cooking and also the gas grill. The furnishings of the home were great and we all enjoyed the home. We visited the Barker Museum, the Outlet Mall, Sheridan Beach and we rode go carts. The weather was perfect. The host responds right away to your questions. Perfect weekend getaway.

Wedding Weekend

My bridal party and I stayed at the property over my wedding weekend. The house was absolutely beautiful, and the listing photos do not do it justice! The house is so spacious and was perfect for us to spread out while getting hair and makeup done and still have plenty of room to sit around and hang out. When we arrived the dining room was set up beautifully with flowers and homemade cookies that were just wonderful. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Katie was so responsive during the check in/out process and even gave us a lovely nearby coffee recommendation. I can’t wait for another chance to stay here again!

The Parsonage is a great spot!

Katie was excellent and communicative before and during our stay. Loved the location, which is walkable to the beach. Plenty of shopping if you like that; however the house was perfect for our family as everyone had their own room and bath.

Great Stay!

The parsonage was so beautiful! Perfect in every way. We loved the jet tubs, nice TV's, plenty of toys, books, and games to keep us entertained. Parking for the beach, splash pad, zoo was 8$ daily, but the pass was good for the entire day. The beach was great too. Very clean and family friendly. The outlet mall was also larger and had better stores than expected. Overall, this was a most excellent vacation

Birthday Celebration

The property was beautiful--plenty of room for the family. The location was perfect, close to the beach, shopping--and the arts district. We ate out and cooked great meals in--stove and grill. Loved Renew consignment shop. It was a wonderful way to spend time with my adult children and grandchild AND celebrating my birthday. The hosts were quick in responding anytime I reached out.

PERFECT! This home is gorgeous, great floor plan, walkable to everything.

We stayed three nights, and have family memories to last a lifetime. The home's location is fabulous. It's a block from the outlet shopping, coffee houses, restaurants, and shops. The beautiful sand beaches are minutes away, Washington Park, and marina. The home was well equipped with kitchen cooking items, children's toys, plenty of comfortable seating, a very relaxing atmosphere. The neighborhood is quiet and has sidewalks. We will definitely stay here again! Thank you Katie.

About the host

Hosted by Katie Stack

I grew up in Michigan City and always admired The Parsonage from my school bus. My husband Joe and I have had a beach home in the area for 17 years now and we enjoy all the seasons in Michigan City with our entire family. Great beaches, shopping, casino, restaurants and all of Harbor Country close by. We met the Hoovers this past summer and were wowed by this property and saw this as an opportunity to own this very special property while involving ourselves in the exciting changes happening in Michigan City.

Why they chose this property

Why The Parsonage? You know why when you walk into the front hall. The sweeping staircase and grandeur of an age gone by is evident with the soaring 12 foot ceilings and beautiful wood floors. Furnishings have been updated to provide comfort and style. Gracious common rooms and private bedrooms with private baths make this the perfect gathering for a family or groups of couples and friends. You will never forget your stay at this special property.

What makes this property unique

A stay at The Parsonage provides the unique opportunity to vacation in a stately historic home that has been maintained to perfection throughout the years.
