    There is a partial fence still standing I was notified of a wind storm that came in the week before our stay and told it affected the fence. I was not informed of the state it was in, even after asking. I looked up past reviews that mentioned the fence and the need for repair. One from 2022 was replied to stating there was a vinyl fence on back order obviously not true. Others from 2024 mentioned the need for repair. Please google the property to see the shape of the fence if bringing kids or dogs. We did while there and it is totally misrepresented on the rental site. Yes has a hot tub but not private since the fence isnt there. The cover is big and heavy and the bar to fold it over isnt there to help Wifi not great, we did get another login that was better. The property is in a quiet neighbor.

    wonderful Home and hosts that allow you to feel like you are at home. I stay in rental houses all the time as I travel frequently because I have family scattered around the United States. My stay at sandhill Flats in Gary, Indiana has been amazing and I will continue to request to book this home every time I come to Chicago to visit my family. The home was clean., had everything I needed to enjoy my stay, extra towels, extra extra linens, coffee, and an espresso maker, which was my absolute favorite. Amazing hot tub that made the 20° nights. I feel not so bad! I give sandhill flats a 10 out of 10 for their courteousness quick responsiveness for any questions that I have no matter how minor and the overall cleanliness and exceptionalism of the home…
