This vacation property is a fisherman's paradise. Three private ponds are abundant with large-mouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish. All ponds boast easy access from the entire shoreline. The largest pond has its own pier and is a short walk from the back-door. Use the on-site paddle boat or rent a larger boat one mile from the property.
This new home has every convenience to make your stay carefree. The open floor plan features a large kitchen, adjoining great room with 22 ft. windows, beautiful 2-story fireplace, and large plasma T.V. The open loft and upstairs bedroom gives a lodge-like appearance, while the downstairs bedroom is next to an open recreation room with pool table, table tennis, and bar. The master bedroom is just off an extensive library, packed with numerous books for hours of reading.
Just want to relax away the hustle and bustle of city life? The large wrap-around deck overlooks acres of amazing beauty. Meander around 26 acres of well-kept grounds and keep an eye out for deer or wild turkey. Add variety by fishing some of the 120 lakes in Greene-Sullivan State Forest, all within a 10 minute drive. Most have boat ramps, two within 1/2 mi of the property.
Want to combine hunting and fishing? The State Forest has several areas where hunting is allowed. Bag fox, coyote, raccoon, turkey, squirrel, deer, pheasant, quail and rabbits in their specific seasons (go to the Indiana department of national resources web site for season dates).
Everywhere you look, this quiet retreat beckons you to fish, hunt, hike and relax with nature! Come ... your paradise awaits.

For the pass two years my wife and son and grandsons have stayed at this property. The property more than met our expetians.The house and property were better than we though it would be and the fishing was GREAT! The property mgr and his wife made sure we had every thing we needed. I would recommend this property to anyone who enjoys nature.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children.

5 of us took a fishing trip here last year. House was nice as well as fishing. They double booked us on our last day, so we had to give up 1 day and 1 night of our planned vacation. We were told this the day before our trip. The property managers for the rental are very poor. The lady property manager is very unpersonable. We went to rebook for this year regardless of her and found out that the owner would not rebook us. She had claimed we left fish scales in kitchen and mashed in carpet. Totally false! No fish were cleaned inside the home. In fact, we were refunded our initial damage deposit, so we didn't think anthing until we went to rebook. Home was left with deck hosed off, linens removed from bed, everything brought down to the laundry room. We even got part of the linens washed. Counter tops clean, floor was swept, garage cleaned, etc... I have never been so appauled by such a 100% lie from the lady manager. Unfortunately the owner believed her. Still wondering why our damage deposit was refunded if that was the case???Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

My husband and my daughter and I stayed at the house this past summer. It was truly one of the best family vacations we've ever had. The house was exceptional - exactly as described and more. I think the best feature of the house was the extraordinary and caring service we received from the property manager. Such thoughtful touches at the house to address every one of our needs! We had a 14 year old teenager with us who didn't want to leave! The fishing was excellent! The grounds were very well taken care of...regardless of the unavoidable drought conditions, the views were beautiful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing and quiet family vacation. We are planning to return next summer.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

I have been a guest at this property several times, most recently in April of 2010. The accommodations are beautiful, new and clean. The most enjoyable part of my visit was fishing the three well-stocked ponds. Unlike other fishing experiences, I was able to catch fish with nearly every lure from my tackle box. It is not uncommon to catch 3 lb. bass and large bream and crappie. It is such a relaxing environment. Sitting out on the deck at night with a cold drink and the sounds of the wildlife is something I rarely get a chance to do. I look forward to returning.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Dugger:
This rental has been my home for five years. I now work and live in Louisville, KY much of the time. So, even though I do go back and stay at this property, I have decided to allow renters to experience true country life with abundant fishing opportunities.
The Unique Benefits at this Lodge:
Very little noise other than wild-life. Wild-life is abundant and can be often seen on the property. The house looks out over the bulk of the 111 acres. At night, the stars can be easily seen, as there are no surrounding lights. There is a pier to fish or swim from. I keep 26 acres mowed and well-kept, so strolling around the property is very easy and relaxing. There are raspberries and blackberries all around the property in their season. Mushrooms can be found in the spring. In the heat of summer, one can relax on a large concrete patio shaded by the wrap-around deck above.
