We came in the off season, so quiet lake, and great family campfires. Had a fun time at the Whyte Horse Winery for Singo Bingo. Would like to return to see the summer madness.

This home exceeded our expectations!!

Not only was this a beautiful home, it was comfortable, well equipped kitchen, gorgeous yard including deck and gazebo on the river front. Our young grandsons enjoyed watching all the boats, jet skis on the water and exploring their surroundings. The homeowners were very welcoming and gracious.Our trip went to fast, but the memories will last forever and we hope to be back again!

The Perfect Family Getaway for All Ages

This was the perfect place for a greets getaway from the busy life of Chicago! This home is on the lake which was perfect for fishing, having a bond fire 🔥 or just playing family games outside. It was also located close to Indiana Beach, but the best part was just the peace and tranquillity of the property. The Hosts were very friendly and accommodating to our family!
