The setting is rural and the lake view is good on a small lake. It is close to the toll road, which is convenient but audibly noticeable outdoors. We would stay again. The cottage is lovely and well-maintained.

Beautiful quiet getaway

The place was cozy and beautiful. Very clean with great amenities. Host was very responsive and everything went smoothly. It was nice and close to the Shipshewana flea market and was a welcome relaxing place to be after the hustle of the markets. We used the kayaks provided which was great but even without that option the view was amazing. The only downside side was 1 bathroom for 5 adults and 1 teen was a bit challenging but we worked it out and the bathroom provided is so big and roomy it really helped make up for that. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Lake Retreat

While visiting family in the area for Thanksgiving, we were looking for something different than a hotel stay. We found it on Fish Lake! The property was perfectly located for us and on a beautiful lake setting. We were able to enjoy the bonfire, the rowboat for a chilly fishing attempt and swan migration viewing. The house was set up nicely for our family of four, but could easily fit more. My young boys enjoyed staying upstairs by themselves in beds of their own, while my husband and I appreciated the quiet of the main floor bedroom. The view from the living/dining/kitchen was amazing and I really enjoyed drinking my coffee and watching the sun come up. Probably the best part of this property were the hosts. Tori was very quick to respond to any questions and added special touches specifically for our family (including snacks, firewood, having the rowboat ready with lifejackets and cornhole in the yard). I would recommend this property to my family and friends.

Two-night stay for a Notre Dame football weekend

My son and I stayed two nights during a Notre Dame football weekend and it was ideal. After the crowd and activity on campus, this was a perfect retreat. We were welcomed with a cute sign and tray of snacks! We didn't notice the sign for the wifi password, so we texted the owners who responded immediately. They were so kind and helpful. It's a charming place and the location is absolutely serene. Highly recommend a visit!
