Quiet getaway located in remote forest.
This was a relaxing vocation me and my family took together. The house is spacious and very interesting. I love how the house stayed exactly the way it was left. I enjoyed hearing the families background and how it stayed in the family. An amazing overall experience

Family wedding in the area
It was close to Eagle Pointe but tucked away to make you feel like had left the rest of the world behind. Great location and worked wonderfully for our family. Even the 10 month old enjoyed exploring. Erin was great.

Hoosier Lakehouse Review
This property is beautiful and relaxing. Even the pictures online can't do full justice to the incredible scenery. We were all impressed with the setting, and the views from inside and out are nothing short of breathtaking. The house itself proved very comfortable for seven adults over a 3 day span. And I cannot sing enough praises about our host--she was kind-hearted and courteous. Even when we had a question about some lighting after 9pm, she got back to us within about 5 minutes. Absoultely above and beyond! It truly felt like we were guests in a cherished family home, and I would absolutely recommend this destination to any groups or families. I imagine it is especially beautiful in autumn.

Our family had a wonderful time for our Labor Day weekend. This house was wonderful, interesting, and welcoming. Everywhere you turn there are interesting places. Would highly recommend this home if you are wanting nature and quiet. We saw several deer. That’s for sharing your home with others

Lake House surprise
1st time renting . Didn’t expect to have to clean my own towels or coffees pots etc… thought that’s what the cleaning fee was for. Having a late check in and early checkout is unfortunate. But the house is beautiful. There is no path to the lake but there is a beautiful view. And the host is very nice about helping and trying to make your stay as good as possible. Seemed like everyone needed to go to sleep at the same time because of the lack of insulation inside the house. Also the bathtub doesn’t drain properly and we had a huge water problem in the basement which had obviously happened before. In the end we paid a lot of money between parties( verbo, the home owner, cleaning etc..) for this place and being a 1st timer kinda left a bad taste in my mouth. But it is beautiful and the host was very kind and thoughtful she really did try to make thing’s as good as possible. There are lots of kitchen amenities, outdoor chairs and firewood. which I would have know about also.

If you love nature, bonfires, swimming, hiking, reading, playing games and a great view this house is great for you and your group! Sleeps up to 12!!

What makes this property unique

5 acres with expert trails down to the lake shore. Fairfax beach just a short drive away with boat rentals and other fun stuff to do at the park!
