Our hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. The check-in was extremely easy. The lake house was very clean and comfortable. My family had a very nice stay. After our trip, we discovered that my mother forgot her iPad in the Lake house. The hosts were so kind and helpful, we got the iPad back without any issues.

Home away from home, clean & very comfortable. It was nice floating in the lake on hot summer days, cooking out and playing games with the family. The perfect vacation spot… half way point for meeting up with our son. We absolutely loved it and plan to go again.

This has to be one of the most relaxing family getaways we have been on. The house had all of the amenities needed and was very comfortable, true Lakehouse feel. The lake was very warm and shallow getting in, perfect for the kids to play. Ronda, our host, was super sweet, thoughtful, and quick to respond. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend!

Fabulous Lake House for 6

This lake house was the perfect spot for my family to celebrate July 4. The house is right on the water, which is shallow enough to wade/swim in. The house came with everything we could have asked for- paddle boards, kayaks, floaties, chairs, and more. The house was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. 10/10 would visit again!

Great family lake house

This location is the perfect spot for a family getaway! The sandy beach and shallow water was the ideal lake access for our family aging in range from 4 months old to 72 years! We spent most of our days playing in the sand, swimming, fishing, and kayaking and the evenings sitting around the campfire - it was fun and relaxing for all :)

Family Getaway

This is our second time staying at Edgewater and our stay was amazing yet again! We were there with ages 2 through 74 - perfect lake house for kids of all ages. The sandy, walkout beach (no seaweed in the swimming area!!) was where we spent the majority of our time and is a rare feature with lake houses. The lake was also great for paddle boarding and kayaking. The home was clean and very comfortable. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Ronda

Host profile image
We are thrilled with the opportunity to open our Lake House to other families who can use and enjoy Edgewater as much as we do.
When traveling, we almost always stay at VRBOs and have had the most wonderful experiences using them. It was our dream to one day own a lake home and provide an opportunity and experience for other families and guests to cherish and create memories there too.
We found this perfect home, fell in love with everything about it and kept its name, Edgewater! We're confident you'll love it too.

Why they chose this property

We've prepared Edgewater with everything you'll need and a lot of extras too.
From a fully stocked kitchen (even a crockpot) to full laundry and bathroom supplies. An assortment of life jackets, beach toys, floating tubes and even fishing poles. There are Binoculars to bird watch and a telescope for nighttime star gazing. There's a Propane Grill, fire Pit and plenty of outdoor seating too. There's even a giant wooden carving on the property - his name is Captain Ahab!

What makes this property unique

Edgewater is very conveniently located in South Bend, Indiana. It's close to so many attractions and yet removed from the busyness of the city. Provisional shopping options are close by (less than 10 minutes away) and Notre Dame and Down Town S.B. are about a 15-20 minute drive.
