Lake Freeman house w/boat dock... Minutes from Indiana Beach/Lake Shafer
Surrounded by lush evergreen trees in the front and side of property with seasonal trees and foliage in the backyard that provide plenty of privacy, this quaint property is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and Twin Lakes tourism. Fish off the private dock, lounge by the lake or shove off at the nearby boat launch. Simply enjoy the overall scenery whichever time of the year you choose to visit. It will be a relaxing experience where you may enjoy the outdoors by the water, on the balcony or in the patio and garden areas.
Inside the home, there are multiple rooms ideal for families or a group of friends. There is a cozy open layout allowing for easy flow between the living and dining/kitchen areas, which makes it perfect for spending time with loved ones. Or, you may opt for quiet time and retreat to the lower level den and/or its walk-out patio with seating areas. The adjacent garden and the sound of wild birds will welcome you outside. The rental provides basic necessities to start you off.
Overall, it is an ideal get-away location that encourages relaxation yet it is close to a variety of local shopping and attractions for when you desire to be more active. Like golf? Amusement park? Winery?... each only 10 minutes away!

Nice house right on the river with beautiful views! We enjoyed staying here. The beds and couches were very comfortable and there’s plenty of space in all the rooms. My kids had fun fishing right off the dock, and my son actually saw a deer crossing the river. I also like that it’s close to restaurants, stores and Indiana Beach Amusement Park. We would definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay with 6 adults and 2 children. Plenty of places to sleep comfortably and close to Indiana Beach. Home and amenities were as described, would definitely stay again.
Wonderful place! The house was clean, beds were comfortable and we loved playing the games. Can’t wait to come back! The location is great for visiting Indiana beach theme park!
Great place for our family gathering! House is close to everything and had everything we needed, with a gorgeous view of the river. Host was very helpful and responsive.
Great house for our trip to Monticello. Near to Indiana Beach and restaurants. Nice to be on the water for the view, fishing, and boating. Pleanty of room to relax.
We loved the house! The location was beautiful. Plenty of room and very clean! The only bad thing was the awful stairs down to the water and falling tree limbs (someone could have been seriously injured)
The house is very cozy and has a great old fashioned vibe but with a lot of modern amenities. The home looked as it does on the site and everyone was comfortable. Would definitely look to utilize the property again if we come back to the area!
What a wonderful time we had celebrating our daughter’s graduation from Purdue, the location was perfect and it was an opportunity to tour the area while we’re there. Wonderful river house very flexible for our needs.
Great fishing spot! Very peaceful and relaxing.. not a lot of traffic coming through on the lake. We took kayaks out and had no problem. The trees surrounding porch gave nice shade and we really enjoyed our morning coffee on the porch.
Great waterfront property! Layout was ideal for two families with young children. Kitchen and patio were well appointed, plus 3 mins to grocery store. Communication with the host was prompt and thorough. Recommend!
Thank you for considering our place for your home away from home. It is the essence of our relaxation. We hope you get to experience it in the same way.
Why they chose this property
We enjoy the quiet (lack of traffic), seeing a variety of birds (and deer during winter), hearing the sounds of nature, local taverns accessible by short walk, Walmart, Kroger, ACE, and other shops nearby but not too close and availability of a variety of entertainment points (downtown, Indiana Beach, sports bars, etc.) all within short distance!
What makes this property unique
The property is two lots large with an abundant front yard and plenty of distance from neighbors on each side to provide privacy. The back yard has an open grass space amenable for outdoor games, a garden, patio and stairway to the (Tippecanoe River)/beginning of Lake Freeman. Dockside has a large grassy area with bench and lounge chairs to hang out by the water!
