Had a wonderful time!
Loved our stay! The house was nicely furnished, clean, and very well equipped with everything we needed to be comfortable. My husband and grandkids had great luck fishing from the dock. The swimming area was shallow and safe for the kids. The lake (and view from the porch) was beautiful! David was easy to reach and very accommodating.

Lakefront Living
What a perfect location! This is a great property on a lovely little lake. Very quiet and a peaceful lake community. Just what we needed to recharge and unwind. We’ll definitely be back! (We don’t want to leave.)

Feels like Home
This is our 3rd time renting with Dave and hopefully will not be our last. We absolutely LOVE the location, the front porch which affords a wonderful view of the lake and spectacular sunsets. It's nice to find a rental that is not too big and one we can afford. We are very comfortable while there and feel like we're coming "Home". Over the years, we've become very comfortable with Dave, feeling like he's more of a friend.
Feel free to leave this out of the review . . .
If we could change one thing, it would be the mandatory potential damage fees. After 3 rentals, he knows we are trustworthy, don't drink or smoke and will naturally not damage anything. That would help financially. I suppose it could be a VRBO requirement, but there should be instances where it could be waived.

Our yearly family vacation
The house was clean, comfortable and had everything you needed to cook with. David has a big closet with plenty of hangers I like that little touch. He really does have all the supplies you need. We especially liked the front porch and the comfortable chairs and pillows. The water is super clear with a sandy bottom. What we didn’t like about it. To rent any of the boats you had to go through PayPal. There’s no other credit option.

Our OK stay
The best part of our stay was the Amish community & seeing their horse ridden carriages everywhere! The rental was quaint. And yes, there is a street that you have to cross to get to your part of the lake which mind you had some a tad aggressive driver's coming through. I was also kind of disappointed that when I specified my son who has Down Syndrome was scheduled to have surgery a day before our scheduled leave which ,unfortunately required us to cut our stay one day short I did not even get an email saying sorry about our situation, not even offered a credit toward another stay for a future stay or even half off for that one day. I get it was a week before our stay that our situation changed beyond our control but, having empathy as opposed to always being about profit speaks volumes..it left a bad impression. David did say we could utilize the paddle boat/kayaks that he does normally charge for free since we were leaving a day earlier. Yes we used paddle boat but the control & rudder were out of sync & impossible to maneuver! We just turned back! I also wish I was informed prior to our stay the policies of what a renter is required to do before we head out. When we were texted in the morning at 10:45 am asking when we would be heading out I told David that we were heading out the door in 2 min, only then did he tell us we were to strip every bed/pillow we used during our stay & put all plugs back in sockets! His reasoning was "O I wasn't sure when we were heading out!" Um you knew we had to cut our vacay one day short so a text the day before would have made sense but, we never got one!! Communication was lacking! Overall, the rental was clean & the view of lake was eye pleasing no doubt. I did keep my cool despite these frustrations! Please buy or bring all your spices and cooking oil if you plan to cook!!

What a cute and comfortable place!
We spent a week at this cozy cabin and it felt like going home to mom's. Very clean, well supplied in all ways, close to local activities, great porch for rain or shine, and beautiful sunsets! Kitchen is supplied with everything you need, including sharp knives! The cabin is not large but there is plenty of space for everything we brought for our own convenience. There are new stainless kitchen appliances and a new washer and dryer. We only used the master bedroom and can say it slept mighty good. David was awesome to work with and promptly answered our questions. Upon leaving, he asked for input to improve the place. Only thing I could come up with is that more washcloths would be helpful, the water is very soft so a bathmat and handicap bar would be safer and the loft stairs may be a bit challenging for for old folks like us. The place is just plain great! We hit the sights in Middlebury and Shipsee but also the Rise N Roll Bakery and dinner with friends at Jay Walkers, at David's suggestion. (Menu is in the basket} Recommend it all! Steaks and peppered bacon from Yoder's Meat and Cheese were great hits, too!

Relaxing location
We had wonderful weather, and the neighborhood quiet. It does not get much better! Owner was very helpful. The only negatives, which did not affect our stay greatly: the screens on doors and windows are damaged so we could not let in fresh air without letting in bugs and the kayaks/canoes were not something we would choose to use.
The patio is wonderful - fire on the beach and sunset amazing, just all very comfortable.

Peace and tranquility
We just left beautiful Stone Lake and already miss it. We've enjoyed our stay more than we can express and are already looking forward to next year. Dave is wonderful to work with, and always responded quickly when we needed information. He shared valuable tips about the area and even though we knew it well, we discovered a great new restaurant. Sunset views off the awesome new deck are spectacular. Recommend highly!

Awesome place to stay
This home had it all. The loft space with the three beds was an extra bonus. The two beds in the second bedroom was a nice surprise. Kitchen cabinets were well stocked for all cooking needs. My husband has COPD. He could watch our grandchildren enjoy the dock and the lake from the spacious deck or from the living room window. David was always available for any questions. Would definitely stay again and recommend staying here to friends and family.

Peaceful and relaxing
We had a wonderful time this past week at the house by the lake. The view from inside the house and the porch looks right out in the lake which is beautiful. I enjoyed swimming and kayaking each day from the dock. Not sure how people with young children would like that the dock is across the street but for me it was fine. Most times there was not much traffic so it was a very, very short trip down the driveway and over to the dock. Everything that we needed was in the house. For just the 2 of us, it was nice and comfy with views of the lake from the main rooms including the master bedroom. We have already discussed going there again. Can't wait! It is definitely a peaceful place apart from the world.

Peaceful, charming and all the conveniences of home on the lake.
My husband, mom and I just spent a week at this cottage. Very convenient to Shipshewana and other area attractions. The view is beautiful and the cottage had all the comforts that we needed. Dave was very helpful and checked on us during our stay to see if we needed assistance. Mom loved being close enough to family to visit and make many lasting memories. Weather was cooler than we had hoped for Lake use but we plan to return again in summer months to enjoy fishing and boating. If you are looking g for a great home away from home stay and lake as a bonus then I would suggest this place. Thanks Dave and hope to be visiting again soon.

Nice quiet place to relax.
Wife and I spent three days on Stone Lake in September and enjoyed this quiet home. The house was steps from the lake and the large porch had a great view of the sunset. I spent quite a bit of time swimming. The lake deepens gradually and has a sand bottom going out. This would be a great spot for a family to vacation and play in the water all day. It's also close to Goshen and Middlebury if you are looking for brewpubs and restaurants outside the Amish palate. And Shipshewana is right down the road. Owner was easy to deal with.

I'd stay here again!
It was just as advertised. The lake is beautiful, the house is decorated tastefully, the location is near to the Shipshewana sales we came for. My only concerns were relatively minor...The lighting in the kitchen/livingroom is quite dim. And, since we are baby boomers and therefore technologically challenged, we would have liked to be able to watch our favorite shows live. But we could only do that in the master bedroom and then only if we wanted CBS or Fox. There are plenty of things to watch if you're into streaming (which we are not). Dave was very accommodating and spent a lot of time on the phone with my wife trying to make things work. I'm sure those issues will be corrected by the time we want to return.

Peaceful Lake
The home was furnished with all the amenities you'd need to stay for a short vacation. The lake was beautiful and peaceful; however, there is a road in-between the home and the lake. We had two small children so it was an inconvenience with the road; however, this particular lake was nice. Our children were able to swim in the water off of the pier and enjoy the clear water.

A comfortable place
Overall, we enjoyed our experience in the cottage. It was comfortable, had modern appliances, and was located on a beach with a private dock. There was only one bathroom, but it was spacious and had an extra-large bathtub. The atmosphere in the cottage was pleasant, with a cheerful, up-to-date decor. We had use of a canoe, kayak, and/or rowboat for an extra fee; the canoe and rowboat were well-worn but still usable. The location was convenient to lots of interesting activities in Shipshewana, Middlebury, and Elkhart. The owner made himself available to us and responded quickly to any questions we had. We would definitely consider this cottage for a return visit.

Great vacation getaway
Just spent a week enjoying this spacious lake front cottage which I feel is more of a home. The pictures don’t do it justice. There are two full bedrooms and a loft area that the kids just love. The kitchen has everything we needed and more. Appliances are all new and TV/Internet was a big plus. House has central air, which for most cottage rentals you have to deal with window units. Dave was excellent in responding to our needs and very friendly. Neighbors were also very friendly which was another plus. The dock and lake were excellent. Plenty of clear sandy bottom to enjoy. If you have never stayed out Shipshewana way, there is a lot to do (and eat) in this area. From Shipshewana to Middlebury we covered it all. Overall a very good experience. Our hats off to Dave and his wife for allowing us to share your beautiful place on the lake. We will be back.

My wife's parents owned a cottage directly behind ours and it's still a mecca for her and her sisters. Many of them have homes around us. Multiple generations have kids, grandkids, weddings in the area. We currently live in Tennessee and love to come back home to Indiana often.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
The lake is known for its quiet, relaxing environment. There are all sports lakes within easy driving distance if you'd like to enjoy renting a speedboat, jet ski, etc. Our lake is safer and quieter with the 10mph speed limit. Our property sits among family members homes and we bought it 8 years ago to make it our go to summer place. The Amish county of LaGrange adds to the back in the country appeal.
