We came down from Grand Rapids to see a concert at Four Winds Casino New Buffalo and decided to stay at the victorian home in Laporte. We loved this beautiful home, our stay was just wonderful and the host is one of the best people I've ever met!

Family Reunion
Brought the grandkids to my homeland for the week. We did a lot of things in and around LaPorte most of which involved water but when I asked my oldest granddaughter what her favorite part was she said it was the house!

Victorian Grace in LaPorte
We passed through LaPorte on our way to N. Michigan for one night only, and this listing made it very reasonable to do for our family of six. The fees were very reasonable making it a better value than multiple hotel rooms. Claudia couldn't have been more gracious and we were able to enjoy the nearby main strip and Pine Lake views during our short stay. The house has been well restored and the kids found it very interesting. Enjoy!

Claudia's place was the perfect spot for our annual family meeting, lovely living room, dining room, and kitchen areas. We enjoyed our stay and loved the history of the spot. Beds were all comfy and the home was clean and fresh for our arrival.

We stayed here for a couple of days so that our older son and his wife could join us and our other children for a day at the beach. We enjoyed the home very much. Claudia is a gracious host; she takes excellent care of her guests,

Fantastic!
Stayed for a long weekend with my groomsmen/groomswomen for my wedding! The place was absolutely lovely. It was clean, the house is bigger than it seems in the pictures, and Claudia (owner) was super kind and thoughtful. She gave us a wonderful tour of the place when we first checked in and made sure we knew that if we needed literally anything, all we had to do was reach out. Definitely recommend!

Claudia was the most gracious hostess. Her home was beautiful, clean, well stocked. I wished I had been able to stay longer. Quiet neighborhood. Bunnies and birds and I even saw a raccoon scurry down the street!! Close to everything. Old charm is so relaxing!!!
