Come back anytime! We will send out a message with a discount for returning guest who book early.
If you don’t mind me asking. Did you rent the pontoon next door?
Nice very clean house inside. Outside needs power washing. An animal dug into yard on side of house. Don’t know what kind, never saw it. We stayed inside very nice
My family stayed at this beautiful home last weekend for a Grace College Graduation.Plenty of room for the 8 of us and gathering areas for us to visit. Kitchen well stocked with cooking items ( I do most of the cooking at the homes we stay)Good communication with the owner, easy to get in the home. There is so much to do in nearby Winona Lake, beautiful area!
The property is well kept. Great amenities, quite spacious, and perfect for enjoying time with family. Thanks very much for all the information given and welcome notes.
Family was looking for a large place to get away to and found it. Host was great with communication. Easy in and easy out just as described in the listing.
We enjoyed our stay, the house was clean & comfortable. We especially enjoyed the Foos Ball, Ping Pong & Monopoly. The host was responsive and accommodated a few special requests.
The house was very clean with several different spaces for visiting with friends. The kitchen and breakfast area had all the needed items. The windows both upstairs and down were perfect for viewing the lake.

Michael,
So glad you enjoyed your stay. We love the view to the lake too.
Come back any time.
The amount of space is wonderful and the property was gorgeous. It's tucked away a bit but I think that's the charm. Wonderful for a weekend getaway! Thank you to the owners for making the stay easy.

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and for being great guest!
We too love the fact that it’s a little hidden gem. It’s a way for us to get away from the big city.
The pictures are exactly what you’re property is- however - the pictures don’t do justice to the cleanliness, size and accommodations! We stayed and were overly impressed with the setup of the downstairs and family room!
This house is right on the lake with great windows facing it. The house was very clean and well equipped. It must be a good lake for fishing as each day there were several determined fisherman trying their luck.
Our group, two retired couples, spent four days reading, binging movies, and reading.
It is a good place to relax.
The rental was immaculate! Excellent accommodations, and exactly what our mixed group of friends needed for a long weekend. Beautiful lake, kayaks and paddleboat available for use. Very peaceful and we enjoyed the firepit. We did not cook anything but the kitchen was very well stocked. Virginia kept amazing communication through the whole visit and we hope this property is available for future visits! Thank you Virginia & Ben for sharing your little slice of Indiana paradise with us!
