About this property

Newly updated lake cottage on one of Indiana's cleanest lakes! If you're looking for rest and relaxation this is the place!

North Twin lake is a non sport private lake, making it perfect for your family to swim, kayak, fish or just relax. There are no speed boats or jet ski's and we have boat rentals available! Message me for details.

This adorable cottage sleeps 4-6 people, we offer 3 Queen size beds. One full size bedroom and two lofts each with a Queen bed. Keep in mind that to access the lofts you will need to be able to climb a ladder for access. The lake is just steps away and we have a private deck to sit and watch the kids play or just soak up the sun!
We are only an hour from Kalamazoo, MI, South Bend, IN, and Fort Wayne, IN. Shipshewana is a short 10-15 minute drive. You'll get to know some of our Amish neighbors when you visit Shipshewana. Shipshewana has a flea market and authentic homestyle Amish cooking and even horse drawn carriage rides!
The 80-90 Tollroad is about 10 minutes from the house. Shopping is conveniently located 15 minutes north in Sturgis where you'll find a Walmart, Meijer, Walgreens, CVS, and many restaurants!

Our home is smoke free and pet free and we vigorously disinfect the entire home after each stay. We wash ALL linens and bedding, including comforters after EVERY guest!

Quiet Lake Getaway

We enjoyed our time on this quiet lake! The house was great and the lake was beautiful. We loved taking the pontoon out and my son loved catching and watching all the frogs in the evenings. My only complaint is that we couldn’t find a wine opener.
