Lovely week at the lake

JAG House was perfect for our family. Beach and dock for swimming were really convenient, and we used them daily. Nice kayaks to use, also. Storm rolled through and lost power but we were provided a generator to keep food cold and have light until power returned. We are definitely planning to go again next summer.

Our stay was fantastic. The cottage was very clean.Host went over and above to make sure everything was what we expedited.Cathy took us down memory lane with a pontoon ride around all the lakes and past the cottage are mom use to own. Cathy is a very hard worker keeping all of her properties in tip top shape. She is the kind of host you want to call a friend.

Amazing rental experience!

We absolutely loved our syay in this cottage. Our group of friends spent the weekend here for a local wedding. There were 9 guests in all and it was absolutely comfortabel for all of us. There was plenty of room and a great living space. Communication with the host was always easy and steamlined. They worked very hard to give us a good experience! Would be happy to book this again!

Excellent Grandkids Week

We all enjoyed the time spent at Big Barbee. From an amazing host Kathy to time spent with five cousins together for a week. Tennessee and Middlebury apart and thoroughly enjoy this cottage. Clean, beautiful, and no problems at all. Thanks Kathy for the experience!!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Selby

Host profile image
We live in Ft. Wayne but hope to retire at the Lake. We spend a lot of time at the Lake. It is so peaceful and we love the wild life, fish, birds, dear, turtles, turkeys, etc.
My Grandparents bought their first cottage here in 1958. I grew up at the Barbee Chain of Lakes. My grandparents rented many cottages. They taught me a lot. I have happy vacationing people come and visit what is not to love! I hope you grow to love the lakes as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

I bought my first cottage in 2000. It was a cottage my Grandparents had owned and rented. Three month’s later I bought the cottage my Grandparents lived in. Over the years I have had the opportunity to buy more cottages. We are blessed to have yard space and parking for 3 cars. Lake lots are small in most cases.
