Bed & Breakfasts 

If your idea of a getaway includes homemade breakfasts, slower mornings, and a place that feels more like home than a hotel, the South Shore has plenty of spots that fit the bill. Local bed and breakfasts here tend to be small in scale but big on personality—each with its own quirks, comforts, and character. Think creaky floorboards (in the best way), porches made for reading, and innkeepers who’ll remember your name.

Try the Miller Beach Vacation Rentals if you want to stay steps from Lake Michigan with your own rooftop deck and beach access. Blue Heron Inn in LaPorte pairs cozy accommodations with views of Pine Lake and an on-site wine bar. For something more tucked away, The Brewery Lodge & Supper Club near Michigan City gives you farmhouse charm with trails, meadows, and a breakfast that usually includes fresh-from-the-garden herbs.

Historic Bed and Breakfasts for a Cozy Getaway

History buffs and vintage-lovers, you’ll feel right at home in places like The Brewery Lodge & Supper Club, a 1900s-era estate turned upscale inn with private trails and fireplaces in most rooms. Or check into the Blue Heron Inn, where original woodwork and antique details mix with modern comfort. If you’re into architectural details and period touches, these Indiana bed and breakfasts will hit the mark.

South Shore B&Bs with Scenic Lake Views

Lake Michigan isn’t just for summer crowds—it’s a view that transforms with the seasons. Stay close to the water at Miller Beach Vacation Rentals, where you’ll find private homes and cottages with panoramic lake views and quick access to Indiana Dunes National Park. Beachwalk Vacation Rentals is another option for larger groups or families, offering full homes with beach access, porches, and space to spread out.
