About the host
Hosted by Katie Ward

For over 30 years, my mother- and father-in-law have cherished the beauty of Little Tippy Lake, calling it their beloved summer retreat. Over the decades, the cabin has hosted countless friends and family, creating memories across generations. Children have splashed in the lake, grown children have returned with college friends, and now grandchildren are discovering the magic of this special place. The cabin has seen birthday celebrations, summer cookouts, lazy afternoons on the dock, and evenings filled with laughter and storytelling.
They also love dogs—especially Labs—and believe our furry friends deserve a lake vacation too! This dog-friendly cabin has room for pups to run on the lawn, splash in the lake, or relax while their families enjoy all that Little Tippy offers.
Now, they are ready to share this cherished retreat, inviting guests to create their own memories at this private lakefront haven. Whether you’re coming with family, friends, multi-generational groups, or your four-legged companions, the cabin offers a welcoming space for everyone. From the sparkling waters and private dock to the yard for games, picnics, or camping under the stars, this property is designed for fun, relaxation, and connection.
I’m Katie Ward, and I love caring for the cabin and our guests. A lake resident for over 15 years and visiting Little Tippy for more than 40, I have deep knowledge of the area and am always available to answer questions. Located right by YMCA Camp Crosley, the cabin is ideally situated for exploring the lake and local attractions.
From grandparents to grandchildren, friends, and new visitors plus their canine companions—this cabin is a place where laughter echoes across the lawn, boats glide along the water, and families return year after year. Our hope is that every guest, two-legged and four-legged alike, will feel the same warmth and joy my in-laws have experienced for decades—a true home on the lake where memories are made, cherished, and shared.
