Indiana Dunes announces Cypress Log Cabin is available for lodging

PORTER COUNTY, Ind. -- The Indiana Dunes National Park announced IN the Dunes, a subsidiary of Michigan City’s NWI Development Group, through its collaboration with Indiana Landmarks will now allow lodging at the Cypress Log Cabin.

The historic home, within the Century of Progress National Register District on the shores of Lake Michigan, will now be available for lodging.

Officials say this will offer a unique opportunity for national park visitors from around the world.

The Cypress Log Cabin was originally built for the 1933 Chicago World's Fair. At the Fair’s end in 1935, the home was taken to Beverly Shores where it has stood ever since.

“We are excited to make the Cypress Log Cabin more available to the public” said Indiana Dunes National Park Superintendent Jason Taylor, “Our partnership with Indiana Landmarks and their relationship with NWI Development Group provides a unique option to continue restoring and maintaining an exceptional cultural resource in the park, while enhancing visitor opportunity and experience.”

The cabin served as a private home for several decades before being restored through a leasing program between Indiana Landmarks, the National Park Service, and private parties.
