Tranquil Treehouse in the Dunes 2011 (wi-fi) in Beverly Shores

Enjoy the treehouse in the dunes. Very cozy mid-century chalet-style home. Great room with a fabulous stone fireplace in the center, pecky cyprus walls, and cathedral ceiling all set snug as a bug high in the tree canopy. Perfect seclusion on a very large long wooded lot. Floor to ceiling north windows glow in the late afternoon. Absolutely wonderful during the fall. Mother nature is all around in Beverly Shores, located in the heart of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore. We don't have a lake view, but our beach parking permit will let you enjoy night after night of gorgeous sunsets.

Open March-November only.
