Always a great stay at Lolo's Lakeside Retreat

It is an excellent place to stay with our family. Beautiful lake and a very comfortable home for the 7 of us. This is our 5th or 6th time staying here for a week. We will be returning in 2026.

The photo of the house from the lakeside does not do it justice. This is a sweet house that has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully appointed. We were at Lolo's for three days to spend time in an area we love and with friends we enjoy. Lolo's was the icing on the cake!

Lots of space on the deck for dining, or just drowsing.
Lovingly cared for flowers and plantings in the terraced yard.

A Wonderful Place to Stay

This house is always clean and well maintained. It's in a great location, whether your preference is for day trips to Shipshewana or just hanging out on the deck. Lynn and Trenia are attentive and friendly, and the most gracious hosts. Five stars all the way!

Great Vacation

This is our second time staying at this house. It is a beautiful house, very clean, and stocked with just about anything you need. Lynn is very nice and very helpful in answering any questions you may have. The lake is really nice and overall pretty quite. We have really enjoyed both of our vacations here and will definitely be back again!!

Excellent experience, will be back!

Working with the property owner was great as we were having odd check-in times. The cottage was beautiful and clean, plenty of rooms for another family. The lake was so nice, thinking about renting again this summer to make better use of it. Thank you! We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Bowen

Host profile image

Long time lake residents in this location. Owners live next door. Retired professionals. The home was previously owned by parents since 1960.

Why they chose this property

Family home. Did not want to lose the home or the eighty feet of lake frontage that goes along with the house. Ski lake for boating. South shore undeveloped and protected. Not overcrowded like so many lakes in northeast Indiana. Connects to other lakes in chain.

What makes this property unique

Lifetime residents of area. Fell in love with all aspects of lake living when we moved here after attending and graduating from college in 1983.
