Highly recommend this VRBO. My euchre club (7 ladies) stayed here while exploring French Lick, West Baden and Wilstem wildlife. Could have easily accommodated more people.We couldn’t have found a nicer place to stay. Convenient and private location. One of the nicest VRBO’s I’ve ever stayed at. Must be professionally decorated. Loved the outdoor space for our cocktail hour, the kitchen table was large for our dinners and, the living room was great for game nights. Dustin responded to our request to adjust the thermostat within minutes. Thank you!

We had such a wonderful stay at this cottage! The place is not only spacious but also so cool and beautiful, with thoughtful touches everywhere. I loved the little details like the copper plaques for everything and the custom memorabilia coin they left for us—it really made the stay feel special. The cottage was stocked with everything we needed and more, making it super comfortable for our family.The owners were incredibly kind and allowed us to check in early, which gave us the chance to spend some time out on the lake before it got dark—such a memorable experience. We truly wished we could have stayed longer. I would highly recommend this space to anyone looking for a relaxing and unique getaway.

Fantastic family cottage
Copper cottage is beautiful! It has lots of bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms. The large kitchen table was so fun to sit down to a family meal ! The owners were very easy to work with and had detailed instructions with clear labeling for ease of stay. It’s very close to Patoka lake along with several other attractions in the area. One of my favorite VRBO’s to date!

Unique decor inside the property, tying in the Copper Cottage theme. Comfortably accommodated our group of 11, which included several children. Our visit was intended to introduce our grandchildren to nearby skiing, but weather didn’t cooperate - too warm for snow. However, the nearby water park proved to be a nice alternative.

Week of Rest and Family
Everyone loved the "Copper" theme. Including copper coffeemaker and pizza cutter. Large table made for great family times. TV's everywhere but we didn't put them to much use. Senior members of the group (wife and myself) were sick all but 1 day so we got full use of the house. Others got to boat, golf and enjoy some of the dining in the area. Youngest almost learned that you cannot win in tic-tac-toe. House was well equipped including magnets for the fridge message board.

5 Star Stay at the Copper Cottage!
Spectacular! We had 3 families up for a long weekend at Patoka Lake. Location was better than perfect, quick 1 mile drive to the boat ramp, restaurants were close, town a short drive. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the property. Attention to detail was top notch: super comfy beds, plenty of kitchen utensils, appliances, and serving ware for grilling out. The fire pit was awesome-thank you for the s’mores and a lovely vacation spot! Communication with owner was easy with quick responses. We misread the instructions and they were super patient and friendly with us :) Will absolutely rent again-everyone loved the Copper Cottage!!
