About this property

Lake Front Home close to Nashville IN, Bloomington IN and Indiana University

Relive the 60's in our Strawberry Fields lake house. Nestled in the Monroe/Brown County hills on beautiful Lake Lemon. Serving families as a guest house since 2001 and was a residence since 1957 making it a very old lake house, nothing fancy! We love pets so bring your dog or cat or parrot!
Outside there is a boat dock and swimming/beach area, as well as a large yard and a panoramic view of the lake. Strawberry Fields is perfect for families and gatherings. It offers the ultimate in kid-friendly accommodations with its gently sloped access to the lake, and a large but flat backyard that is ideal for throwing Frisbee or playing croquet. There is a fire pit, a charcoal grill and plenty of chairs on the deck. Great place to watch the sunset!

This whimsical Monroe County getaway comfortably sleeps nine with a queen bed on the main floor, a queen, single bed and a trundle in the upstairs master bedroom,and a queen and single bed in the other upstairs bedroom.

It is conveniently located 11 miles from both Bloomington and Nashville. Note that after four guests there is an additional $7.50 per person charge. Check calendar for current prices, they fluctuate.
20 hours a week is spent on just this house cleaning, yard work, shoreline attention. We opened in 2001 and an average of $3000/ year has been spent on maintaining and improving property.

There is a shared dock, we might have our boat on one side and will come down to use it occasionally. The other side of the dock is available for a boat.
The outdoor pool listed is actually the LAKE! There was no way to check for lake.
We previously offered a hot tub but do not anymore,sorry.

Lovely Lake View
Absolutely loved the outdoor space - double swing on the shore, fire pit, back deck off the dining room & kitchen, gorgeous view of the lake! Indoors is very 1960s - Beatles and LOTS of memorabilia from the time. If you're an old hippie, you'll love it. If you're fancy, not so much. It's all a matter of what you like. It was just fine for four women who were born in the early 1960s and raised on farms near a small town. Love the owner, honest and down to earth, great communication, very responsive to our requests. Lots of sleeping spaces for families and welcoming to pets. Enjoyed our time there.

Great location - needs attention
The water is beautiful and the yard is nice - we wished we would have brought tents and just slept outside. The house is old and old is ok - dirty is not. While i appreciate the work the owner puts into keeping up with the property, the home needs a professional deep clean.

About the host

Hosted by Sura Gail Tala

Host profile image
I moved here January 1984 after growing up at a lake 10 miles from the White House and was happy to find this unknown lake, almost abandoned and no one valued it. I started buying land and houses in the area, hanging onto them and slowly remodeling them.I have worked extremely hard to keep these houses and I continue to work hard keeping them going along with 4 other full time rentals and my mini farm and 34 acres of mostly wooded land. My partner found me in 2020 and he jumped right in to help maintain and improve it all!
