Couples getaway

Great property. Access to water easy to get to xompared to some properties in the area. Communication with owners was timely and easy as they live adjacent to place. Plenty of space for our party of 6 plus 2 dogs. We loved that they were pet friendly. Beds are too hard for my liking. Very clean. Kitchen had great cooking essentials. Fire pit and grill was wonderful.

It was a great stay. The hosts were very nice and accommodating. Greated us upon arrival. We did have a small issue that was not very upsetting to us at all, but they stopped by anyways and talked to us about it and were very friendly. House had just about everything we needed. Thank you!

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.

Great for yard games and fires and enjoying the deck. Lots of water access for fishing!

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.

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.

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.
