About this property
Lake Shafer Country Cottage with Magnificent View
Located 15 minutes outside Monticello on Lake Shafer, this fabulous, historic country cottage offers a cozy retreat for guests. It was once a dwelling for Sally Rand, a famous burlesque dancer, and her entourage during the 1933-34 Chicago Worlds Fair! The 'Eagles' Nest' cottage offers a complimentary coffee bar. With two bedrooms featuring a full bed and a futon, plus a living room with a sofa bed, there’s plenty of space to relax. The newly updated bathroom includes a walk-in shower with complimentary toiletries . Guests stay comfortable thanks to heating and air conditioning. Whether you’re unwinding after a day of exploring Indiana Beach, taking in a kayak trip up river (available to rent), fishing off the sandy river's edge for walleye or bass, or enjoying quiet moments around a beach campfire, this marvelous property provides a fantastic home away from home. This cottage property has plenty of room to park 2 trucks with fishing boats too! We hope you enjoy what our place, Lake Shafer, and all that Monticello has to offer.
