We stayed here on a recent trip back to Chesterton to visit family. My wife and I were a bit reluctant to stay at a B&B with a 14 month old, but Rich and Ann Marie (and dogs Jackson and Chloe) were welcoming all of us. The Riley's have done an excellent job with this B&B. The rooms and lounge... More

This is an awesome B&B right in downtown Chesterton. Food, hospitality, and ambiance are all excellent. Unique and quaint with two adorable dogs to keep you company. You will feel right at home as long as you don't mind the trains that go by once in awhile.

Very kid friendly, fabulous breakfast, and excellent hospitality. The bed and breakfast is close to the beach and restaurants within walking distance. The decor is so cute and interesting-- all trains.

I'm not a train fanatic, but I always love the idea of a place that builds off someone's passion. The B&B is really cool. Even if you are not a fan of trains, you can appreciate the level of detail and attention that goes into maintaining this Bed & Breakfast. The great room is friendly and welcoming. The guest room...

You really have to see this to believe the reviews you are reading online. The Railhouse has been a labor of love for the Rileys, and the benefits of staying there go way beyond the nightly price. From the earplugs in a jar by the bed to the walking sticks and umbrellas by the door, they have thought of everything.... More

This bed and breakfast is child-friendly and we had a wonderful stay. Our son, who described the room as "train heaven", was asking if we could come back before we even left! We stayed in the upper berth and our son situated himself on the balcony overlooking the tracks for much of the stay. He was thrilled by how many... More

My toddler daughter loves trains, so when I found this place I booked it immediately. I didn't know it was as close to the railroad tracks as it was. My husband was not pleased to say the least. :) That being said, he, I, AND the toddler slept soundly and had awesome nights rest! The place is so neat with... More

We stayed at the Railhouse for two days and could have stayed longer had our plans allowed it. Our kids just loved it. It has something for everyone. I loved how it was decorated and the open air feeling of it. My husband and son loved the trains, inside and out. My daughter loved the owner's dogs, Jackson and Chloe,... More

Glad I chose to look at the positive reviews and ignore the cranky one. I loved my visit to Riley's Railhouse and not only did I enjoy the rail action, the almost museum like railroad decore and comfortable accomodations but the atmosphere was very relaxed and FUN! I plan to book another stay as soon as possible!
