It was a pleasure having your family stay at Tippy Cottage!
This was the First Vacation in a long time with the entire family. We Had a Great Time. The House was fantastic. It had plenty of space and the views of the lake were Great.
This is our 3rd year staying at Tippy Cottage. We always enjoy our time and the hosts are so accommodating and friendly! We plan on coming back next year!
Our group had a grear time staying here. House was well equipped. Had a great porch view of the lake and a great fire pit too. House is well decorated. Beds were comfortable. The lot is super private with plenty of wildlife. Plenty of parking. Overall an A stay.
Was absolutely amazing. Cottage provided maximum comfort while we were enjoying the beauty of the lake and its surroundings. We loved the decor, the balcony, and the fire pit. It was a wonderful little vacation for us.
What a wonderful cottage… we absolutely loved the location, the view and all of the amenities. Thank you Cindi, for making the rental process so easy. We will definitely come back!!
We absolutely loved our time at this Tippy home. Wonderful property and quiet location. Everything we wanted for our family gathering. It was perfect and our hosts were always available if we had any questions. We’ll be back!!
This family vacation was one of our best! Bob and Cindi were delightful! The Tippy Cottage was clean, efficient and a bit whimsical! The screened in porch provided a bug free gathering place
We chose Tippy Cottage because it was close to the wedding venue of one of our sons. Cindi was great to work with & promptly responded to messages. The cottage is very well appointed - lots of kitchen utensils, towels, pots & pans; plenty of bath and beach towels. The beds were comfortable and it was nice to have 2 family room areas with sectional seating. We used the pack-n-play and high chair for our grandson - was nice nice to not have to bring those. We would love to stay again!
This was our second stay. Like our previous stay, our host owner was extremely responsive to questions I had about the property. She was also very helpful in making sure my elderly dad is safe and can easily get around. The fishing in the lake is also very good, and especially in the bay the house is located in. It’s a great property run by excellent owners - we’ll be back again in the future!
My family and I been doing lake trips for the last 8 years and the Tippy Cottage is by far the best lake house we've stayed at. It was incredibly clean and comfortable. It has a great open family area on the top floor that was perfect for many family dinners and game nights. The fire pit was a perfect bonus. We really enjoyed our stay. Cindi was kind and responsive. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Our kids and grandkids really, really enjoy our stay at Tippy Cottage!!! The cottage is just perfect for our situation and the weather was much better than our first stay(October). The place is in excellent condition and the setting couldn’t be better. The kids and grandsons did some fishing, relaxing, s’mores and more, just perfect. The owners are terrific folks, friendly, quick to respond, just awesome people.
Everything was just as listed. Beds comfy, lots of space to relax. Screened in porch is where we spent most of our time. Plenty of room to tie up 2 boats! Owners super nice and accommodating. We will be back!
This cottage is just off the channel to Lake Tippecanoe--so you have the quiet view of the smaller lake and are 5 minutes away from big lake fun! The cottage is well equipped and our family had a great time. Easy parking at the pier, especially loved the fire pit and the screened in porch. Xtra table and chairs provided was so nice! Thank you so much for sharing your special lake space!

We live in Northwest Indiana. We have a year round cottage on Lake Tippecanoe near by Tippy Cottage where we enjoy all four seasons.
Why they chose this property
We like the spacious setting of the cottage in the trees and the 100 ft. of lake frontage. We enjoy the our cottage at the lake and want to give others the opportunity to enjoy Lake Tippecanoe like we do.

Flat yard going out to the lake. Spacious, quiet area.
