Great property and location for fishing, fun, and relaxation. This house is on a canal, so we rent a boat at a local marina and dock it right outside the house. We’ve stayed at a lot of places, and we keeping coming back to this one because it has a great shaded patio, dock, two bathrooms, and an awesome host who is available by text to ensure you have everything you need. There are several good local restaurants if you don’t want to cook. The area itself does not have great cell or internet service, so that’s inconvenient if you need to be able to communicate with your workplace, Even so, would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful family Lake House

The property was an excellent condition and very clean. Access to Indian lake was easy. We docked our boat in the canal along the seawall for easy access. We enjoyed our time on the lake and playing games on the back porch. The owner, Chad, was very helpful, friendly, and easy to reach.

Space and views

The house was great, plenty of room, and met our needs for a family of 4 staying for the week. The kids had activites to do near by or within short drives. (Longer drives to zoo, museums but not horrible). They loved the kayaks and cornhole and fisbing righy off the dock.

Perfect Getaway

Wonderful location right next to moundwood boat launch. Docked the bass boat up all weekend against the seawall. House is beautiful and spacious and comfortably houses and slept 6 adults and 2 infants. Outdoor covered patio and lakeside patio are hard to beat and give options for poor/fair weather! Owner is fantastic and welcoming, just a phone call away if you need anything!

Absolutely perfect!

My family of five loved everything about our stay. We had plenty of room and loved the large upstairs room and recliner for watching Netflix on the huge TV. The Keurig was a plus and nice to have a starter supply of k-cups, Kind bars and popcorn waiting for us. My husband enjoyed fishing out in front of the house while our daughters and I enjoyed watching the boats and beautiful lake views. We definitely hope to return.

Lazy, Hazy, Days of Summer

Wow; upstairs suite with outside porch to sit and catch a breeze or watch sunset with a cup of joe or whatever. Inside, a huge large screen tv with sitting area. Downstairs has a lovely roomy sitting and cooking area with all cooking essentials provided. Outside nice conversation area with grill and short walk to waters edge. What more could you ask for especially if you just want to be lazy and enjoy the day doing nothing. beautiful place.

Amazing and cozy place!

We loved this little house. I will say with all the adults, there wasnt as much room in the common area, but we just alternated. We will absolutely stay again. The second floor was amazing with the own bathroom and beds, cant wait to see the upgraded beds this year! The bunk bed was a little rough with a 6 foot 1 husband and myself. Lol. The host was so helpful and very communicative. He was very acommondating. Thanks Chad for everything!!!

Loved this property! Communication was fantastic. We were able to contact him and get in on a short notice. Everything was perfect for us. Location was what we needed to go out and be able to cast a line for a little weekend fishing. Can't wait to go back during warmer weather and bring the ski's.

Relaxing Fall Stay at the Lake

Try out the lake in "off" season and enjoy a different aspect than summer. We very much enjoyed our relaxing stay at the lake. Everything we needed was available for convenience and comfort. The beds were very comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Our teenaged boys very much enjoyed the upstairs loft area. We really liked that there was a king sized bed such as we have at home which put this place at the top of our list. Any questions we had were answered immediately. I particularly enjoyed walking in the still neighborhood and enjoying my coffee on the back porch.

About the host

Hosted by Chad

Host profile image
I enjoy the lake and the relaxation that comes with being around or on the water with family and friends. Simply looking to share that with family, friends, and new friends who are able to come and enjoy your time at Sunset Hideaway. As a full time resident of Indian Lake I take pride in what the lake has to offer those close to me and would like to share that with others. So offering the Sunset Hideaway for those looking to unwind, relax, and create some memories with those closest to you is a win for all of us and if I can in some small way help to facilitate that for a family, a young person on their first vacation, or be a part of a growing tradition....well that's just pretty cool!

Why they chose this property

Location at Indian Lake is perfect for friends and family to join and enjoy the lake life on occasion. One thing that is really great about the location and property is that on the land side traffic is not able to go through, its a turnaround; thus limiting the amount of traffic. However on the lakeside, the canal gets a good amount of no-wake traffic so waving to boaters and enjoying the view is peaceful and never boring. Hopefully you can find time to visit Indian Lake as well and relax with your friends and family.

What makes this property unique

Access is key with this location. Via car or boat, you have quick access to many things the lake has to offer in and out of season. If you need to get away by simply throwing a few personal items in a bag and leaving, this is a location for you. Local grocery, restaurants, and watering holes bring conveniences with entertainment, food, and comforts just minutes away. Great local shopping and food around the lake or even more of it 12 minutes East in Down Town Bellefontaine and in the Winter time, snow skiing, snowboarding, and more at Mad River Mountain just 20 minutes East and your on the slopes.
