About this property

The Sanctuary on Golden Lake

PLEASE NOTE: The lakeside yard will be regraded and reseeded in Spring 2026. We will be blocking out certain weeks. Any reservation made for March, April, and May 2026 will have some limited access to various parts of the yard.

This property checks ALL of the boxes for lakeside comfort: Four large spacious bedrooms, a fully-stocked kitchen, a massive lighted deck with a screened-in porch area, amazing lakeside views, a large lush beach, a huge firepit area with firewood, and kayaks and SUP boards. Add in the fact that quiet Golden Lake boasts some great fishing, and you can see why The Sanctuary on Golden Lake is called by some "the best lake house in Indiana."You'll soon discover why families love this place and come back to stay again and again!
The property is perfect for families on summer vacation, three couples who want an affordable and quiet getaway, small office/staff teams for planning retreats, and individuals seeking a tranquil retreat in a high-quality home. No matter the season or the weather, The Sanctuary on Golden Lake never disappoints!

ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES
The property has steps throughout, and the concrete and yard are uneven. The property is not accessible (currently) to those who need a consistent firm footing or cannot use stairs.

About the host

Hosted by Terry & Kelly

Host profile image
Our kids "grew up " on Golden Lake, as our family has had a place here for 25 years. We love to travel and host fellow travelers.! So, it's fun to combine our love for travel and Golden Lake and offer a relaxing place for others to get away. This is a creative, restful place that we hope you'll love as much as we do.

- Terry & Kelly

Why they chose this property

Golden Lake is known as "the grandparents' lake." We like that it's rural and quiet and that folks continue to move here and fix up these little cottages around the shore.

What makes this property unique

A huge yard, lush beach, quiet neighborhood, and peaceful days. The screened porch overlooking the lake, a jacuzzi tub to melt away your worries, and a lake full of fish. Some guests have called it the best "getaway" lakehouse in Indiana.
