Top Wykes-Plampin Nature Preserve Hotel Reviews

Furness Mansion

8/10 Good

"This was the first property I had stayed in that had a bidet and a heated towel bin, and a massage chair. Let me start by saying everything was lovely and the “Superior suite” accommodations worked out for my husband, son and myself. However, the advertisement for the accommodations on Expedia is incorrect. It states that there are three beds including a king, full, and sofa bed. In reality, there was only a king with a twin daybed in the same room. There was no sofa bed, and in fact, no sofa. Instead of a sofa, they had a reclining loveseat that was missing a cord or broken. I like attention to detail, and they need to work on the landscaping as the grass had been mowed when it was allowed to get too tall, and there’s a lot of weeds and trees allowed to grow out of control. The neighboring yards looked much better. Some of the flowerbeds however were beautiful."

Spring House Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Once again great value, I'll be going back next time I'm in the area."

Best Western Indian Oak

10/10 Excellent

NEW! Beautiful Riverfront Home on 10 Acres!

10/10 Excellent

"The place was quaint and quiet. We had a bit of trouble finding the correct driveway because the address was hard to see and the garbage cans were in the way. Speaking of the garbage cans, they create a blind spot when you're pulling out, so please be careful. Overall, it’s a great and comfortable place to stay."

"The location was fantastic-convenient to both the state and national parks, and in walking distance of Chesterton where we were able to walk to the European Market and later to get ice cream and look around. The home was perfect for our family-so comfortable and spacious. We really enjoyed the natural landscaping and the back yard! Everyone is already talking about what we will do next time we stay there which means the place was great!"

Indiana Dunes Getaway on 2 acres! Truly unique 4 Bedroom, 4 Bath home!

10/10 Excellent

"The house was beautiful…exactly as shown. The host, Jen, was very responsive to my many questions. And I appreciate her kindness. The property is huge so if you have children, there is a very big yard to run and play. Kitchen and grill area were very well stocked. It’s very close to both the state and national parks. Wonderful place to stay while visiting. Looking forward to making a return visit!!"
