About this property

Lake life the way it used to be. Sweet cabin on a private and serene lake.

Construction plans have changed and we are able to open up our cabin summer of 2020. We have updated our landscaping to provide a gentle and even slope to those guests who may have difficulty with uneven surfaces.

If you enjoy waking up listening to birds and chattering squirrels, sitting in your adirondacks enjoying a morning coffee while watching the sun rise and feeling the morning mist, then this is the place for you. This is a private 179 acre lake which does not allow motors of any kind, strictly canoes, kayaks and rowboats. Peace and Serenity abound. Come for warm summer days and nights, or beautiful fall colors.

3,569 acres of Tri-county fish and wildlife adjoin the property and provide opportunity for bird watching and exploring. Nearby towns offer antiquing and amish crafts. Notre Dame/South Bend is an hour's drive.

2 Kayaks available for use, with a 2 seater paddle boat upon request. Gently sloping lake front allows for safe children's swimming. Life jackets provided.

Completely restored lakefront cabin with original hardwood floors and open concept floorplan. Adorable kitchenette with slate backsplash and butcher board countertop. Queen size bed. Futon has a very thick and comfortable full size mattress. Refinished sliding barn door closes off the bathroom with tiled, glass enclosure shower. Water/drinking station provided since this is well water.

We've put a lot of our own love for this place into restoring this cabin and hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do.

Your booking requests will be returned with details about us and our own pets as we live next door. Please watch for your replies!
Thank you.

Perfectly Peaceful with Fun Fishing!
Joanna has an awesome experience ready for anyone looking to relax, fish, kayak and enjoy the beauty of lake life! The cabin is rustic with the finer comforts. It really gives you all the comforts while bringing together a cabin-y feel. Joanna is awesome as well. She goes above and beyond to help you figure things out that may not even have a thing to do with the property itself. She is kind and wonderful. We recommend this property. We will be back. Our two boys (11 and 13) who fished their heads off and caught plenty will see to that too! 😉

Wonderful
The cabin is very cute. Joanna and Darby are just next door for any questions. Directed us to some good fishing spots. They have 2 dogs that are very well behaved. And fun to watch Joanna throw toys in the water for them to retrieve. Cabin is just so cute and comfy. Loved our stay.
