Top Wykes-Plampin Nature Preserve Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn Chesterton near Indiana Dunes National Park I-94

8/10 Good

"The fitness gym was under construction so un available to use but everything else was fine for a couple needing a place to stop to sleep."

Comfort Inn & Suites Porter near Indiana Dunes

8/10 Good

"Room could have been a little cleaner but everything was good"

Spring House Inn

8/10 Good

"Overall nice stay. Large room with great view at back forest. Price a little high as room and hotel a little worn. Great location for Indiana Dunes NP exploration."

Furness Mansion

8/10 Good

"Nice place, cozy room. Near a noisy road and railroad - hard to ignore on the deck, but easy to ignore from our room. A part was missing from TV so it wouldn’t work. Help coming ‘soon’ meant 4 hours before a second TV was brought in. Polite but slow response and have seen no sign of the promised discount. But they did ask the maid to bring a box of microwave popcorn for us. Nice to be close to Indiana Dunes."

Waterbird Lakeside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I arrived at the hotel after being discharged from a local hospital. I was traveling from NY to Colorado by motorcycle when I was hit by a truck. After 2 days in the hospital, I booked this hotel to recover, treat my wounds and wait for my motorcycle to be inspected. I ended up staying at Waterbird for 6 nights. The staff was amazing. So kind, caring and helpful. My room was quite large, comfortable and clean. The private lakeside deck was the perfect spot to drink morning coffee and relax while my wounds started to heal. Thank you so much, Missy and Max at the front desk. Thank you to Christina, Jessica, and Tracy, the housekeepers who made sure I had what I needed each day. I am truly grateful."

Fairbridge Inn Express Chesterton

8/10 Good

"Decent rooms with all the basic amenities. Biggest advantage is its proximity to all the major tourist destinations and convenience stores nearby."

Cool Springs Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I wanted something intimate and this litter gem was definitely a good spot just to relax to get away from the city..I loved it"
