Perfect Stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at your house on the river! The home was very clean, beds were comfortable and the view was so peaceful! The family really enjoyed fishing and the set-up even allowed a toddler to run around and play in the backyard! Everything was very spacious for us and we had everything we needed! Thank you so much for your hospitality and thank you for the special treats upon arrival!

I had an overall good experience. I'd recommend this place if you're needing a place in the area.
Its a beautifuly kept home with amazing fishing, very close to 2 beautiful golf courses and Indiana beach, For future advice there will be a lot of bugs but only at night so keep the doors closed or the light on the inside off if your going to have a fire

Very good and kind host. Great deck outside for reading.
It was a perfect place to stay away from the hub bub of graduation at Purdue. Quiet and relaxing after long days of graduation and parties. Loved the fishing off the pier and the large outdoor deck overlooking the river. Much easier for the 85 yo mother/grandmother to enjoy her grand daughter’s graduation from Pharmacy school. Her pride and joy.
The trip was great house was clean! Had at a great stay! House was big enough for 5 grown men with one sleeping on the couch! Close to stores and food! We will be back!
This place was absolutely beautiful, next to the river we were able to enjoy the relaxing evenings and mornings! very spacious beds slept very well kitchen had everything you need to stay in cook. Along with a gas grill on deck! I cant say enough wonderful things about this rental
Loved our time here. Great communication & clearly a lot of care had been taken to make sure all aspects of our stay were enjoyable. We had beautiful weather and really enjoyed the outdoor areas as well, got to watch herons, eagles, & a family of baby geese visiting the river. We were also pleased to find a nice fenced area below the top deck for our boys to play that had a yard game & places to relax. Conveniently located too, would definitely stay again.
We stayed for a week, while visiting Indiana Beach. What an amazing house! Every need was catered for with a very well stocked house. Great deck at the back for early morning coffee and sundowners after a long, hot day! Comfortable and big enough for our whole family! It felt like being home- a very stylish home! We will definitely be back!
Loved the comfort of the home. Beds were very good quality, living room furniture was great also. The view from the deck was amazing. Spent our Saturday morning drinking coffee and just enjoying the scenery and nature. Will come back to the area and stay again.
This is a beautiful place to stay with every little detail taken into consideration for your stay. We could not have been more pleased with the home. The back decks and dock are perfect for fishing or just enjoying the serenity of the outdoors. You will not be disappointed.

Absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous lake view. Clean and well maintained. They thought of everything. Little extras. Extra toiletries, first aid supplies, board games, a few toys for the kids. Close to shopping, the bait shop, and Indiana Beach.
Our family had a wonderful time staying here. The backyard has stunning views of the Tippecanoe River. My boys had so much fun fishing from their dock and they caught a lot of fish too. The house is beautifully decorated, clean and cozy. I really enjoyed relaxing in the hammock in the backyard while looking out at the river. We liked how the house is located close to Indiana Beach park, the bait shop and restaurants. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful home. We're hoping to be back soon.
