Retired older couple that loves to travel. We have been to 49 states and parts of Canada. We love nature, and quaint places. We like knowing about areas we are traveling thru, the people that are in area and interesting things off the beaten path.
We love exploring areas we visit. We preferred less traveled areas.
No pets
Have not yet Done any boondocking as we have traveled. Going to try it out on next vacation. Have hosted some campers and really enjoyed having them.
Northwest Indiana
We are a self contained 20 foot turtle top van. Cream and maroon in color.
Our hosts were very gracious and made us feel right at home. We appreciated the electric and water hookups. Learned about NY, how to play 5 crowns and a bit about ebay selling.
First time we used Boondocker Welcome and had a great time with our first time hosts Richard and Susan, had a good conversation with both of them, if we come back thru there we would love to stay again, highly recommended.
We arrived later than planned. Our hosts' had a wonderful place waiting for us. So we felt safe and cared for and had a good night's rest.
We are so grateful for Travelinglollyand pop's place to stay. Very convenient to the Indiana Dunes, shopping, etc. Played Farkle and learned Five Crowns. Great folks and highly recommend them to all. Stayed an extra day as it was so great.
Because there was an error in the system we got the invitation too late.
Pity, but communication with the hostess was protrude
Kind regards
Mia & Clemens
We only stayed one night but our hosts made us feel like family! Beautifully landscaped property in a rural setting. We hope we can host them on their future trips!
Thanks Sharon and Todd
Our hosts were so wonderful! They welcomed us like friends or family. We were late getting in and got lost trying to find their place, but a quick phone call and they helped us out and greeted us in the driveway with flashlights and helped us back in to the driveway in the dark. We chatted for a bit before turning in. The spot was a wonderful respite from a long journey. We will definitely stay here again when passing through. Had electric hook up and was a peaceful night of sleep for us. Lovely hosts. It was our first official boondock experience. Went smooth.
Such a jewel! Lovely parking spot and lovely couple. I didn't venture into the city, I did sit on the beach, short drive(Indiana Dunes national Park) watching the sunset over Chicago!. Loving the sound of the waves and the nice cool breeze π.
Less than a mile away I bought fresh eggs from a neighbor π.
Thank you, lollyandpop!
This was such a relaxing stay for us. The property is gorgeous and the hosts we beyond friendly. Their yard is like a small park in size, landscape, and wildlife-birds especially!π The hosts were pleasant to talk to, and we had numerous great conversations! And being able to hook up to electric was VERY nice.
We wanted to stay near Indiana Dunes to be able to explore. This site is very close to Indiana Dunes state and national park and all the beaches in them! We had a great time at Kemil beach, which was beautiful and dog friendly. There are also numerous vegan friendly restaurants in the area, which was a pleasant surprise.
We enjoyed our stay with Travelinglollyandpop. Very friendly and helpful hosts. The access to park is very easy and level. Nicely landscaped property with beautiful big trees surrounding us. Great location. Two thumbs up for this host!
We had a very nice stay here. Their home and yard were very neat and clean. We parked on a pretty level paved driveway. We felt very safe and comfortable there. They were both very nice to talk to and down to earth.
Richard and Susan were very gracious hosts and kindly offered some tips for getting to the Indiana Dunes NP. Their property is fantastic, very pretty with beautiful landscaping. Thanks Richard and Susan for your kindness!
We appreciated being able to park easily in a quiet spot overlooking a lovely yard...even in the rain! Our hosts greeted us and made us feel welcomed. We enjoyed chatting with them.
A very lovely setting, very quiet and peaceful. Google maps worked great to get us here and the house number sign on the road was easy to see. Wonderful hosts in a beautiful setting. We would definitely stay again.
Very kind couple. I just needed a level, safe place to stay overnight. This was a perfect location.
Thanks for opening your property for this overnighter.
The hosts were very friendly and provided us with some history of the surrounding area along the train ride we took to Chicago. The property was well kept, clean and just outside of Chesterton. Close to the dunes national park as well as the train station. We also had some tasty food at the tiger Lilly cafe in Chesterton, they had vegan and traditional options that were delicious! This was our first experience with boondockers welcome and so far it has been worth the membership fee! Travelinglollyandpop was a great host, very accommodating and we would definitely visit them again if we come through the area.
Enjoyed 2 peaceful nights at Travelinglollyandpop's beautiful property. We had a warm welcome with helpful information of the local area. Took the train into Chicago also explored Chesterton and the National Lakeshore. Thank you Travelinglollyandpop for your hospitality, so happy we were able to stay with you. Dundee Girl.
We ran into some trouble on our trip and were delayed. They let us come in late which helped us out a lot on a bad day. The road was very quiet at night. There were train noises which I found soothing. We backed into the driveway which is longish but straight and wide and pretty easy to back into. Didn't get a chance to meet them, but will definitely stay again if we are back this way.
Thank you for your hospitality.
You where a big help to use.
What a beautiful sunset.
Hannah likes your yard.
We stayed two nights at Travelinglollyandpop's place and it was wonderful. Super kind folks with a beautiful piece of land. Kids loved being able to use their baseball goal. Thanks again! We enjoyed our stay.
The hosts were very nice people. We enjoyed sitting in the shade of the trees on a hot humid late afternoon. We are glad they are BW Hosts.
Thanks again.
Our hosts were absolutely wonderful! They met us as we pulled up & helped us park. We visited a few nights and shared stories and experiences. They were extremely accommodating and generous. Their yard and home was beautiful and our kids loved playing in the wide open yard. We would stay here again if we are in the area! Highly recommended.
We had such a lovely time at this beautiful country setting. The hosts were beyond welcoming and gave us lots to information on the area. We loved the amazing gardens and the bird species visiting their property. The location is filled with many great places to visit. We loved visiting the National Seashore and nearby towns. We hope to return to this area to do more exploring and of course to visit with our hosts/friends.
We had such a lovely time at this wonderful oasis. In the country but close to many beautiful sites. The hosts went beyond welcoming and gave us lots of information about this area of Indiana. Had a great time enjoying their garden-filled property as well as visiting the nearby National Seashore. We hope to return to further explore this amazing area.
We had two delightful nights here with our gracious hosts. Nice level spot and thanks for the power. Hope to see you again.
We enjoyed staying some nights at Travelinglollyandpop's site. They are very kind people. We appreciated every discussion we had with them. They gave us useful documentation about the aera, dump stations and the train going to Chicago.
We were fortunate un being their First guests.
We wish to see them again.
