About this property

Lakeside Cozy Cottage - w Fishing Dock, Relaxing Lake Freeman, close to Purdue

**** freshly painted and all new carpet in 2023!
A peaceful retreat for those who would like to get away from the hectic work week or city life. The cozy interior of this cottage is welcoming and comfortable for traveling guests to feel right at home. Bedrooms include 1 master with queen, 2nd bedroom with queen, bedroom 3 has full daybed with full size mattress. (3 total beds) along with living room couch. And maybe the best part is the relaxing deck back - perfect for board games, as well as the fire pit and deck chairs and table for outdoor dining - and even fishing. It’s the perfect oasis away from it all!

The neighborhood is super friendly and walkable! You can walk all along the lake side front for a scenic stroll. And we even share the neighborhood with Indianas Largest Boat, the Madam Carroll (which operates several days of the week dockside so stop on over for a cold beverage and maybe some live music). Steps away is also The Sportsman Inn for food and drink. We are only 6 miles from Indiana Beach!
Conveniently located - Purdue 30 min.

Get away from it all in this quaint 3 bdrm cottage (on the inlet) leading into lake freeman. peaceful views, fantastic deck with fishing access. No direct swimming access.

Why they chose this property

A peaceful retreat for those who would like to get away from the hectic work week or city life. What a lovely surprise this lakeside cottage is, once you walk inside - you are instantly greeted with a warm welcome with the feeling of getting away from it all. The interior of this cottage is super welcoming for guests. Bedrooms include 1 queen primary, and 1 queen bedroom, along with 3rd bedroom with full daybed. And maybe the best part is the great deck out back - with deck chairs and table for outdoor dining, perfect for card games, as well as the fire pit and grill. All facing an inlet/canal for Lake Freeman! It’s the perfect oasis away from it all! The dock is just steps away, and perfect for fishing. You can fish or even dock your boat.

This neighborhood is super friendly, walkable, family friendly and pet friendly! Walk along the lake shore!

We supply majority of basic kitchen needs / linens / the basics. If you have any specific questions on what we have stocked, please let me know! (Dishes, utensils, coffee maker, even some boardgames for fun!)

Large flat-screen TVs in living space, if you must come in from the relaxing deck... and because part of the lake life is unplugging, we have a nice library of books for your enjoyment as well as board and card games also.

Kicking back with your feet up to watch the peaceful sunset is always great & relaxing too!
