Gray Goose Inn
-
Surrounded by century old oaks the Gray Goose Inn has been welcoming travelers for 20 years. The cry of Canada geese and soft shrill of songbirds fill the air setting the mood for Dune Countries Premier Country Inn.
aahh...the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and baked goods waft through the inn. Calling you to a sumptous breakfast being prepared especially for you and served to your table. Panoramic views of lake Palomara while watching the ducks and geese playing on the lake only add to your unfolding experience.
What's on the menu today? Homeade cheese filled crepes with fresh raspberry sauce and our special tasty, plump pork sausage. Your coice of juice from orange, tomatoe, grapefruit or cran/raspberry to cool crisp apple juice in the fall and winter. Muffins and fruit cup, coffee or tea complete your three course breakfast.
The Lon Schneider Suite with panoramic views of Lake Palomara evokes a feeling of comfort and relaxation. A queen four poster bed and a crackling fire sets the mood for romance and dreams of another time. Memories to last a lifetime.
The Gray Goose Inn overlooking Lake Palomara is home to a wide array of bird and wildlife. From Canada geese to mallards and Blue Heron. A Great Blue Heron sits stoically here among the trees.
A visit to the Indiana Dunes and Lake Michigan are an experience not to be missed. Massive sand dunes remenants of an ice age long gone are unique to Northern Indiana. Hike the many trails, climb the highest dunes. Take a refreshing dip in the cool refreshing waters of lake Michigan.

The Gray Goose Inn, Country English in style sits on 100 wooded acres overlooking private Lake Palomara. As you enter the front door you imediately sense the spirit and tradition of our Colonial heritage. A mixture of antiques, fine reproductions, tapestries, and old prints set the stage for your stay. A gourmet breakfast is served in our dining room reminiscent of an English pub. While dining watch Canada Geese, Ducks, Blue Heron and other wildlife. Walking trails ring the lake for the nature lover or for just a leisurely walk. Guest rooms are individually decorated from Shaker, 18 century English, French Country to English Victorian. A truly unique corner of Dunes Country.

Gray Goose Inn is beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful. The grounds are lovely. I learn more birds every year. I love the fireplace in the suite. The food is always outstanding. If you are interested in adventure you can hope the train into Chicago, go to the Dunes State Park or shop at the Outlet maill. I chose this over Florida this year even though it would be cold!!!!!

January 10, 2013
So close to our home, but it seemed like we were miles away from it all! Our 3rd stay here...this time we brought our friends with us. We've stayed here twice during the Christmas season and the decorations are just beautiful! Beautiful rooms, beautiful Inn, beautiful view (we had a light snow!) Stay here....you will love it! Plus, Chesterton is a lovely town with many things to see and do!
4.4 out of 5A great cozy place to relax!
January 08, 2013
The Gray Goose Inn is a wonderful cozy comfortable place to relax. The staff was wonderful, the food delicious, the rooms very clean and comfortable. The Inn is lovely, on lovely property. Only minutes from the Indian Dunes which is a beautiful place to visit and hike, even in the winter. We truly felt at home there and hope to visit again very soon! The Inn was still decorated for Christmas when we went and it was beautiful!
3.8 out of 5Annual New Year Stay 2013
January 05, 2013
Of course, the service and quality are unquestionable. However, I would recommend the public areas at the establishment be fully cleaned and aired out. The smell of pets were extremely noticeable and even came through the room's heating vents during our stay. We love pets but were disappointed by the odor. Other than this, he Gray Goose is a great place to lodge.
