Our room at the Furness Mansion was spotlessly clean, tricked out with everything we could imagine needing for small meals (fridge, coffee pot, coffee, a few plates/bowls/utensils), a bidet!, well-appointed bathroom and shower, and comfy beds and linens. We loved being close to the Dunes National Park. A lovely place to stay for an evening or two.

Our visit to Furness Mansion could not have been better. The room was spotless and very welcoming with a personal note from the staff. The bathroom was well stocked and had a wonderful waterfall-style shower head…so soothing. The keyless entry codes worked perfectly every time. The staff kept us up to date about our reservation and reached out to us afterwards. The location is very convenient to all the National and State Park dune locations. I look forward to visiting and staying at Furness Mansion again!

This was an absolute gem of a find! We stopped in for one night on our way to Milwaukee. It was very clean, welcoming, comfortable beds and had everything we needed. It was nice to have the laundry available! Super easy check-in and out. Great location. Close to Cuyahoga National Park!

We had a comfortable stay at the Furness Mansion. Very close to Indiana Dunes National Park and also nearby points of interest. The unit is spacious with free use of washer & dryer located at the entrance of the building. The only thing negative is the response time from the hosts. I sent a couple of messages and never received a response. My inquiries were not critical but a simple response would have been nice as a courtesy.

Darling building in good location. This right on freeway and train line though. It was clean but one big found in bed- pantry beetle- not bed bugs. Nice heated bidet in bathroom. Reasonable price. Could be really great with good mattresses, linens and antique furnishings and paintings. It is such a cute house.

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.

The Furness Mansion was lovely! First thing I noticed when I walked it was how good it smelled and how clean it was. Our room was the same. We stayed with our young kids after visiting the Dunes. Little noise from the road out front but not terrible. Comfortable, quaint stay! Would stay again.
