Cabin near the lake

Property was awesome! Has lots of ammenities for all to enjoy. There is something there for every age, kayaks, trampoline, fire pit, hammocks, golf cart "addt fee", hot tub, corn hole, out door spaces to be close or get away, etc... Very close to raccoon lake and short drive to the park. Highly recommend this cabin if you like the outdoors.

Blissful retreat within a beautiful area

Truly a place to escape the stress of busy cities. This property has everything you need to relax and unwind, all you need is good company. A unique aesthetic paired with a cozy and efficient layout results in an experience that I could only sum up as perfect. Long talks by the fire, jamming out in the hot tub, indulging in the theater room, and exploring the nearby trails and lakes; there is no shortage of ways to make memories here. I am very grateful for the experience!

Great trip considering the circumstances

We were there for our father’s funeral, but being together helped to deal with the moment. The only thing bad to happen was my brother lost his Seiko watch there, and we didn’t have enough time before we had to leave to catch our flights. Everything else was a great time

Relaxing cabin in the woods

We had a great time! It is a cute cabin in the woods with access to raccoon lake. It was a quick drive to Turkey Run state park. There were two bedrooms with bunk beds in both rooms. We have three kids and our friends have three kids. It was tight, but doable. We rented the gulf cart and the kids loved it. We also enjoyed the hot tub. We would definitely recommend this cabin for a fun family vacation.

2nd time staying at this cabin. Not as clean this year as last year, but we did let the owner know the issues we had and he said he will address them all. Owner is very kind and was receptive to all we had to say and these are fairly easy fixes so i do believe this to be true. Would definitely stay again and see if the issues are resolved because we love the location of this cabin and all it has to offer. Our family of 4 had a great time.

1. The exterior was a mess, had to take my leaf blower and clean things up. 2. The BBQ grill was junk and didn’t work at all after many tries. We had to cook our burgers in a pan. Bad deal!3 One of the toilet seats was broken.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 October 2022
The renter thought it was ok to show up with a dog, cause the home to smell, and then complain about the smell they caused. We have a no pet policy that they obviously had no intentions of following when they booked. They thought it was ok to take apart a high end Jenair stainless steel gas grill and put its parts in the large brick fire pit to cook. I simply showed them how to turn on the gas, hit the ignitor, and it started right up. The cleaning of the grill was missed by the cleaning service. I apoligized for this and addressed with the cleaners so this does not happen in the future. Decorations were taken from their location in the home and found laying scratched up in the driveway. When I asked them to not do this, they wanted to know how they are to determine what items are decorations. The tenant states the host went In to the rental space without them and this is simply not true. We take pride in offering a great rental experience for our guests. All other reviews support this. When a guest does not respect our property, ignores house rules, makes false statements, and complains about problems they caused, they are not a guest we wish to have back. We hope this does not happen to other hosts in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Dustan Ingram

Host profile image

I enjoy woodwork and tinkering around the house. My wife likes to relax and read a book. Together, we love to host. We frequently have family and friends over to enjoy the life that we have built together. We have two elementary school-age friends who are very active. We live right down the road from this cabin and have become very familiar with the surrounding area. Please as us for ideas on how to have fun in the area!

Why they chose this property

My wife and I lived in the suburbs of Indianapolis for 10 years, but both grew up in small towns. We wanted to have a place in a small town by a lake to bring our kids to on the weekend. We stumbled on this property and it needed a lot of work. We worked hard to do the renovations ourselves and we love our little cabin. In 2020, we found ourselves coming out to the cabin more during the shutdown. When school started up in the fall, we decided to stay at the cabin and send our kids to school in Rockville for the year. We fell in love with the area and decided not to move back to the suburbs. We bought property and built our dream house on the lake, but couldn't imagine selling our cabin. We still love to host and are hopeful that other families will enjoy the cabin as much as we have.

What makes this property unique

We live very close to the cabin and love meeting new families. Please feel free to contact us for suggestions.
