Wonderful!

Beautiful cottage, very comfy beds, lots of sand for kids to play in…paddle boards, kayaks, and inflatables provided…LOVED the decor and the towels/linens were very cute! This cottage had everything we needed and wanted! (The only note I have is if you have toddlers, a gate might be helpful with the stairs - mine kept trying to climb, haha). Thanks Lauren!!

Perfect Lilly Pad Place

Because most of our family are local but son John travels for work and only gets back here once or twice a year so we try to do a VRBO every summer. This was everything we hoped for. Beach area was perfect for little sand castle builders. The lake and weather we just the best. We were very pleased with the cottage with all the cozy amenities. Wish we could have stayed longer

Weekend getaway

My wife and two of our close friends stayed here for a parents weekend away. I was very pleased with how beautiful the lake was, we sat around for hours visiting out on the deck. Plenty of restaurants near by as Niles is close to South Bend and Mishawaka. Although the best food we had was a Iron Shoe Distillery right in Niles. The house itself we honestly didn’t spend much time in, but the overall feel was welcoming. It has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, the bedroom upstairs got pretty warm at night even with a/c going but wasn’t too bad at all. Check in and check out process was easy and the communication was very good when I had questions. Would definitely consider staying again.

Adorable Place

Perfect place for a few days away at the lake! We brought all our own food, used the grill and house was stocked with what we needed. The extras are so nice- towels, phones chargers, etc!
