Had a great time. House was very clean, host was very hospitable, location was verry quiet with no traffic on the lake. Kids enjoyed the provided kayaks. I definitely recommend this place if your looking for a peaceful and relaxing place to stay at affordable pricing.

Cute, quaint and comfortable, and fit the four of us. Loved the kayaks on the quiet lake. Great stop in Angola (hit the arts fest and farmers market). Friendly neighbors too with the cutest dogs. And Fort Wayne definitely worth a visit - especially Promenade Park!

We were so pleased to have you! Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Angola and basically anywhere around has lots of things to do. Ft. Wayne offers a huge variety of events.

Serene! We had an absolutely lovely time. The cottage is cute and cozy and was spaced out to fit 5 guests surprisingly well. The lake was so calm and beautiful, hardly any boats, and lots of wildlife to see. Christin was a marvelous host; she was very speedy with all responses, and super accommodating.

The property was really nice. 9 out of 10 I'd recommend it. The owner lives next door and was incredibly nice and helpful (especially when no uber would show up by checkout). Kayaking on the lake behind the property was an incredible experience. My wife and I kept hearing strange noises at night (like a door was swinging open, but there wasnt). Other than that, no complaints.
