This luxury modern lodge farmhouse offers nearly 6,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space across three levels, set on a peaceful, private property backing up to the St. Joe River, just north of Fort Wayne.
With three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, multiple spacious living areas, and an expansive open layout, the home provides an exceptional alternative to traditional hotels. Guests enjoy fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs throughout, a full kitchen, and ample room to relax, gather, or work comfortably.

The Space:
Lengacher Lodge is a nearly 6,000 sq ft modern farmhouse-style lodge designed for comfort, flexibility, and longer stays.
The main level features an open-concept living room, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen, all positioned to take in expansive views of the backyard and tree line. This level is ideal for shared meals, conversation, and gathering together.
The upper level offers a large lounge area well-suited for movie nights, games, or quiet downtime, providing a separate space to relax away from the main living areas.
The lower level includes additional living space with walk-out access to the backyard and direct access to the garage, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Throughout the home, guests will find modern furnishings, comfortable seating, smart TVs, and fast, reliable Wi-Fi. The layout allows groups to comfortably spend time together while still offering plenty of room to spread out and enjoy privacy when needed.
Outside, the backyard opens to peaceful views along the St. Joe River, offering a quiet, secluded feel that pairs beautifully with the home’s spacious interior—all while remaining within easy reach of Fort Wayne.

Guests have full, private access to the entire lodge, including all three levels of the home, kitchen, dining areas, multiple living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, garage, lower-level walk-out patio, and backyard.

About the host
Hosted by Joe Stark
I’m a professional short-term rental operator based in Northeast Indiana, focused on creating high-quality, well-managed stays that feel effortless from start to finish. I believe great hosting is less about flash and more about thoughtful systems, clear communication, and attention to detail.
My goal is simple: provide a space where guests can arrive, settle in easily, and enjoy a comfortable, well-run home without surprises. I manage my properties hands-on, use professional tools to maintain consistency, and continuously refine the guest experience based on real feedback.
Whether guests are traveling for work, family time, or an extended stay, I aim to offer a reliable alternative to hotels—one that provides more space, more privacy, and a calmer environment to recharge.

Why they chose this property
This property sits just north of Fort Wayne in a quiet, rural setting near Leo, offering a rare balance of privacy and accessibility. The area is peaceful, spacious, and surrounded by nature, yet still within a comfortable drive of Fort Wayne’s hospitals, downtown, and major employers.
What stands out most is the sense of calm. There’s room to breathe here—open land, tree lines, and river views—without feeling remote or disconnected. It’s ideal for guests who want a quieter place to stay after full days of work, events, or family commitments in the city.
The location also works exceptionally well for longer stays, providing a stable, comfortable environment that feels more like a home base than a temporary stop.

What makes this property unique
This home offers nearly 6,000 square feet of modern lodge-style living space—something that’s genuinely rare in the area. Designed across three levels, it provides multiple large living areas that allow guests to gather comfortably or spread out with ease.
The layout is especially well-suited for families, work-related stays, and extended visits, with thoughtful separation between shared spaces and quieter areas. Large windows, open sightlines, and natural surroundings create a setting that feels both spacious and grounded.
Unlike many rentals that maximize occupancy at the expense of comfort, this home prioritizes livability: generous room sizes, quality furnishings, fast Wi-Fi, and a private setting along the St. Joe River. It’s a property built for guests who value space, privacy, and a calm, well-managed experience.
