A lovely decorated three season room has a cozy seating area and dinning area where you can enjoy a relaxing morning coffee or a bottle of wine.

The Master bedroom has a king size bed and ensuite bathroom, walk in closet and a seating area for you to relax and enjoy before you start your day. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and access to a large balcony with a seating area. Perfect for taking in the sun or watching the stars at night. The third bedroom located on the lower level has a twin bed and bunk bed (twin and full beds) perfect for kids. Need more sleeping space. We offer two queen size air mattresses for up to 12 guest at an additional cost.

It includes a 50" wide flat screen tv, large and comfortable couch, wood burning stove, foosball table, board games, bar, full bathroom and laundry room. The sliding doors lead to the outdoor area. The outdoor patio is ideal for alfresco dining with table, gas grill and seating area.

Location:
The house is located in Mentone, Indiana. Mentone is a small town in Indiana’s Kosciusko County. It has about 1,000 residents. You get small town hospitality, plenty of corn and soy fields and of courses eggs. Mentone is a self-proclaimed "Egg Basket of the Midwest" for its commercial egg production. This area is a hidden gem. The home is centrally located too many other attractions such as golfing, winery, breweries, tons of other lakes, hiking trails, bike trails, full sport lakes, beach access (Winona Lake), ferry boat dinner cruise, dinning, shops, grocery stores (Warsaw) and so much more.

A quick note on our nature neighbors: We are tucked away in a beautiful, wooded area surrounded by trees! Because we share this gorgeous green space with mother nature, you might spot some outdoor friends like mosquitoes or spiders during your stay. We recommend packing your favorite bug spray so you can fully enjoy the great outdoors!
