Red Zen | HotTub-all yr | Firepit | Grill | DogsOK
Your oasis for beachy fun and relaxation is just a road-trip away. You'll love unwinding in the 8-person hot tub, grilling and dining on the deck, and gathering your group around the firepit in the private backyard. Roast marshmallows with the Smores Bar included. Enjoy the convenience of a walk or short drive to Michigan City restaurants, coffeeshops, wineries, pubs, casino, and shopping at the local outlet mall. Best of all, the beach is about a mile away. The ideally located retreat provides the perfect getaway with friends or family. You'll welcome thoughtful touches, responsive hosts, and the relaxed, mellow, vibe.
The Space:
The essence of Red Zen Retreat is embodied in the warmly welcoming brick façade. The slogan – "Leave Your Worries Behind" – on the wall of the cheery glassed-in front-porch/sunroom captures the Zen ambiance of this charming getaway; here, you can truly escape in a quiet, friendly neighborhood and have a blast with your group. You'll feel right at home and enjoy a vibe that marries vintage coziness (wood trim and floors!) with updated convenience.
Enter through the front door – with its inviting wreath – and find a convenient desk for any work-from-home needs in the foyer. Chill out on the spacious, light-drenched living room's super-comfy furniture. Relax and enjoy your own streaming subscriptions on the 55" Fire TV. You'll also find extra sleeping space here in the form of a queen-size blow-up mattress.
You'll love the convenience of a fully equipped kitchen with convenient coffee station. The best cooks value a gas stove, and that's what you'll find here. Be sure to grab your morning coffee or tea and sip it on the front porch.
Dine in style in the dining room, where the sideboard is perfect for setting up buffet meals. Both kitchen and dining room are flooded with cheerful light.
At bedtime, head upstairs and choose from four bedrooms for your quiet and comfortable night's sleep. You'll find two bedrooms with luxurious queen beds. A third bedroom offers two full-size beds, while the fourth provides twin-size bunkbeds. All bedrooms offer storage options.
Refresh yourself in the upstairs bathroom with its unique tile and bathtub-shower combo.
Guests love the convenience of the basement laundry area, with washer, dryer, ironing board, and laundry supplies.
Outdoors, luxuriate in the hot tub in the secluded fenced yard and reflect on your day as you chill out on colorful Adirondack chairs around the firepit.
You'll appreciate your hosts' reputation for solid communication and rapid responses when contacted.
