Great place for our family gathering! House is close to everything and had everything we needed, with a gorgeous view of the river. Host was very helpful and responsive.
Wonderful place! The house was clean, beds were comfortable and we loved playing the games. Can’t wait to come back! The location is great for visiting Indiana beach theme park!
We had a great stay with 6 adults and 2 children. Plenty of places to sleep comfortably and close to Indiana Beach. Home and amenities were as described, would definitely stay again.
Great house for our trip to Monticello. Near to Indiana Beach and restaurants. Nice to be on the water for the view, fishing, and boating. Pleanty of room to relax.
We loved the house! The location was beautiful. Plenty of room and very clean! The only bad thing was the awful stairs down to the water and falling tree limbs (someone could have been seriously injured)
Great fishing spot! Very peaceful and relaxing.. not a lot of traffic coming through on the lake. We took kayaks out and had no problem. The trees surrounding porch gave nice shade and we really enjoyed our morning coffee on the porch.
The house is very cozy and has a great old fashioned vibe but with a lot of modern amenities. The home looked as it does on the site and everyone was comfortable. Would definitely look to utilize the property again if we come back to the area!
What a wonderful time we had celebrating our daughter’s graduation from Purdue, the location was perfect and it was an opportunity to tour the area while we’re there. Wonderful river house very flexible for our needs.
Great waterfront property! Layout was ideal for two families with young children. Kitchen and patio were well appointed, plus 3 mins to grocery store. Communication with the host was prompt and thorough. Recommend!

Nice lake house please bring lots of off being on the lake lots of bugs overall nice stay wish deck was power washed and windows lots of spider webs there were bugs around sinks and windows maybe due to lake small town mice stay
Love the little things that made us comfortable. It’s a home away from home!
Nice and neat place with plenty sleeping arrangements. Love the location, quiet and secluded! Love the backyard set up where we can just sit outside listening to wild birds singing!
Thank you for considering our place for your home away from home. It is the essence of our relaxation. We hope you get to experience it in the same way.
