The Perfect Family Getaway for All Ages
This was the perfect place for a greets getaway from the busy life of Chicago! This home is on the lake which was perfect for fishing, having a bond fire 🔥 or just playing family games outside. It was also located close to Indiana Beach, but the best part was just the peace and tranquillity of the property. The Hosts were very friendly and accommodating to our family!

Incredible Retreat
Rave reviews for this property! My wife & I, along with our teen daughter and 2 of her friends, visited over a long Fall weekend. The house is fantastic - very nicely updated, extremely well appointed with anything we needed (well-stocked kitchen w/ coffee, plenty of linens/towels, comfortable beds & furniture, etc), awesome layout allowing the girls to have a separate living area downstairs to hang out while my wife and I were on the main level w/ our dogs (pet-friendly… huge plus!). Outdoors was even BETTER - amazing views & access to the lake, plenty of seating along the lakefront (deck, gazebo) to relax and rejuvenate, outdoor games on-the-ready (cornhole, etc), and an excellent fire pit. Close to food, not terribly far from town. This was EXACTLY what we were looking for and needed. The hosts live next door - they were kind, and helpful. We will be back!

Great place to relax
There were multiple outdoor tables to hangout around. Downstairs was like a bedroom suite. Neighbor is the owner so they are there for whatever you need but they definitely kept their distance so you could enjoy your stay. Kitchen was fully stocked. Multiple plate sets, multiple pots and pans.

Lovely cottage for weekend getaway
What a charming little lakeside cottage! We planned a weekend getaway with another couple, and this house was perfect. Everything was clean and the owners are very thoughtful. Every light switch was labeled, plenty of linens, and easy to find instructions. We rented a boat on the lake and had a great time. We hope to stay here again next year.

Would stay again
The house was very nice and looked pretty much like the pictures just slightly smaller. There was a lot of wasps in the area. The beds were fine to me but a couple of my family members said the beds were hard. But overall we had a great time. Would stay again but being your own pillows.

Beautiful home..
It was a beautiful home had everything we needed during are stay.. Restaurant and stores were very close.. The owners were very nice they came over and introduced themselves and help us with directions and anything we needed.. The lake was so amazing, we watched people swim and enjoy the water, and also watched the fireworks over the water.. It is definitely a big lake wish I would have bought my boat, but we still had a blast.. Thanks so much!

Honestly a gorgeous getaway. Owner Bob was super nice! He has a couple other cottages and lodge on the property he is working on a let us take a look. He does awesome work. The backyard is awesome. Great for yard games and fires and enjoying the deck. Lots of water access for fishing! Inside they were very thoughtful having anything we would need including dog towels and bowls and cooking items! We highly recommend!

Short family get away
We totally enjoyed our short stay at this waterfront property. It’s clean and well maintained with a beautiful view of the Tippecanoe River. This property had plenty of room to accommodate our family of 6. The beds are very comfortable as well as the furniture throughout the house. The only suggestion I would make would be to add a sound bar to the tv on the main level and add a Xfi pod Wi-Fi range extender which will help the reception on the tv in the lower level which kept giving message of low Wi-Fi connection. We would definitely consider renting this property again in the future.
