A place that has always brought people together

ABOUT LONG LAKE MEMORIES

Long Lake Memories began as the Long Lake Hotel more than a century ago. Today, the property has been restored as a private lakefront retreat where families and groups can stay together under one roof.

With nine bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces, two kitchens and more than 6,000 square feet, there’s room for everyone to be together without every moment having to be spent together.

Outside, the lawn leads down to a private beach on Long Lake, with plenty of space for mornings on the patio, afternoons on the water and evenings that stretch a little longer around the fire.

A historic property made for the way families gather today.

LAKEFRONT PROPERTY

Long before it became Long Lake Memories, the property welcomed guests as the Long Lake Hotel. Built in 1910 along the shores of Long Lake, the hotel was a destination for vacations, lake weekends and time spent away with family and friends.

More than a century later, that tradition continues. The former hotel has been restored and reimagined as a private lakefront home, preserving its historic character while creating a comfortable place for today's families and groups to stay together.

The name may have changed, but the reason people come here really hasn't: to get away, gather together and spend a few days by the water.

Before Long Lake Memories, there was the Long Lake Hotel.

SINCE 1910

EXPLORE THE PROPERTY

Long Lake Memories is the kind of place where everyone can settle into the weekend their own way. Mornings start slowly with coffee in the sunroom. Kids head for the beach while someone gets lunch started. Afternoons are spent on the water, and evenings bring everyone back together around the table or outside by the fire.

With room for up to 30 guests, the property makes it possible for grandparents, cousins, siblings and friends to share a vacation without every moment needing to be planned—or spent in the same room.

Come for the lake.
Stay for the time together.

Long Lake Memories feels tucked away once you arrive, but you don’t have to go far when you’re ready to explore. Downtown Valparaiso is just 10 minutes away, while the beaches and trails of Indiana Dunes National Park are about 20 minutes from the property.

Venture a little farther and you can explore the lakefront towns and wineries of Southwest Michigan or spend the day in Chicago—all while coming back to a quiet place by the lake at the end of the day.

Close to plenty. Away from it all.
