Guestbook comments from the manager
Steve, here’s our review from our stay at the cottage (Memorial Day weekend). I could not create an homeaway account at work, so thought I’d send this to you directly so you could add it to the reviews. 5 star stay and a value for what you get. Hope you are all well and happy!
Catherine
“This is the perfect cottage for lake fun! There is plenty of room for your boat and a wonderful view of the water. Especially liked the large lawn and the large patio area! while the space is cozy, it definitely provided all that we needed. If only we'd had more time-off from work!”

Other Activities: If you love the lake here are other activities:
1. Free use of Row Boat, Paddle Boat, and Canoe, to be shared with the cottage next door.
2. Motor Boat rental at local Marina.
3. People love this location for it quietness and space. Many places are 50 feet properties all along the shore, but with 75 feet of frontage you have much more space and privacy.
4. This location on the lake is know for great water to water ski on, because the waves are small due the hills and tree line that keep the wind down. If you like it a bit bumpier with waves for tubing, just go around the corner fro some good size waves.
5. Spring and fall are great times for fishing and there have been many bass tournaments on Crooked Lake.
6. Known for Great Golf courses in the local area!!!
7. Pokagon State Park has it all, hiking, fishing, and a great 400 foot beach with a diving platform, life guards, and concession food.
8. Canoeing the Mongo River nature preserve is out of this world!
Golf: The local golf courses are highly rated and a fair values. Please Google, 'Northeast Indiana golf courses', for a large variety to choose from. We have many guests who come year after year as a guy or girl get away week end to play golf.
Ski: There is plenty of water skiing right out the front door only 75 feet from your lake shore. A dock is provided for your boat. Also, here are many places to rent water craft in the local area. When you call I can help get you in contact with boat rentals.

Great Family Getaway!
Beautiful Lake and private friendly atmosphere, I have three kids and they were able to enjoy spending time in the Lake which was pretty clean and caught frogs by the dock and we brought a motor for the rowboat so we were able to go out on the Lake and fish. Cottage was very clean and all the amenities worked out great, there are local supermarkets and gas stations very close by and a great Pizza joint Tasty Pizza I would highly recommend them if you were looking for takeout. We loved the covered swing in the back and me and my daughter spent a lot of time watching the lake and boaters go by while relaxing on the swing. Neighbors were very friendly and the whole place seemed to have a very family friendly vibe to it. We brought our two dogs they both had a great time and made friends with the neighbors dogs. I would highly recommend this cottage and this lake it was a great experience and we all made a lot of great memories here and will be back!
The first impression wasn't the best because the grass wasn't cut and the beach area was weedy.
My husband cleared the weeds from the beach so the grandkids were able to enjoy the water a bit. Other than that it was perfect! The view is amazing. Will definitely look at renting again next year.
The cottage was well-kept and had lovely front yard with patio and furniture
There were so many rules! I appreciate that they are trying to keep the property neat and a minimum of upkeep. Although the rules specifically say to take trash out, trash can was half full when we arrived. The gas grill needs to be replaced. The lowest temp we could get was over 400 degrees. Totally ruined 5 steaks. The burners are completely burned up. There was not enough silverware or cups for 6 people. However, we were able to overcome these deficits with the good weather, terrific patio and fire pit.
Our family enjoyed the stay. We met with the owner and they were nice and supportive
The property is situated on a lake close to all facilities. The house was very comfortable for a family.
Family vacation
This small cottage is perfect for a single family. We have been renting it for 4 years now, along with the larger cottage beside it. It is always very clean, well supplied with a nice kitchen, and comfortable interior. The updated pier and sandy area on the beach is very nice. Picnic tables, gas grill, canoe, paddle boat, along with a big yard to play games, and a fire pit makes for a lot of family fun. 3rd basin is great for skiing and tubing. You may want to bring flotation toys to float out in the water, because the lake bottom is soft. Steve is great to answer any questions or concerns promptly, and keeps the yard and cottage very nice. We are planning to rent again next year. Thanks Steve,
Loved it
We had a great stay at this cottage. Very clean, and supplies that go beyond expectations. We had boats available at no additional costs. Everything works, and the lake property and view were everything we could expect. A wonderful time for me and my wife. I retired just this year, and this is just the ticket for a relaxing visit, with so many places to go for food and entertainment.
