This is a family cottage at O'Connor's Point, on the rural eastern side of Indian Lake. In 2007, the cottage was built replacing the original "Zettler Cottage" built 1927. It is just south of O'Connor's Point, near the former site of O'Connor's Landing, and can be reached via the Covered Bridge which crosses the south fork of the Little Miami River. The lake is the headwaters for the Great Miami River.
It rests along 6000 acre Indian Lake facing west, green space to the north, and farm land with a network of country roads behind it for an early morning jog, walk, or trip on bikes during wonderful sunrises to the red covered bridge, just 1.5 miles away. Great lake and sunset views will be enjoyed from the lakefront covered porch and sunny patio. In 2024, this patio was completely replaced, and now has 4 levels of lake views via the porch, the dining and gathering level, the bar and fire pit level, and then the lakeside level for water’s edge seating. You’re really going to love it.
It is fully furnished. Four bedrooms, each with a full bath, and a first floor half bath, means a very comfortable stay for 8-10 people. All four bedrooms have a full bathroom (new for 2021), thus offering four full suites. A large recreation room is above garage with a flat panel TV. The main family room has 75" TV and the bedrooms have TV's as well. ROKU devices for all, and a property (complimentary) subscription to YouTube TV streaming for all of the regular channels. The kitchen has granite counter tops, an island, wet bar, and bead-board cabinetry.
Indian Lake is a fisherman and boater's paradise. Fishing, boating, tubing, swimming, and water skiing are all permitted on the lake. There is extra parking for cars, boats and boat trailers right next to the cottage. A complimentary Universal Tesla Level 2 EV charger (NACS & J1772) is mounted in the garage. It will charge both Tesla and non-Tesla EV's.
Although summer is fun in the sun, many locals regard the fall as the best time of year, thanks to the tranquility along with the gorgeous fall foliage. For the winter, it is located 15 minutes from Mad River Mountain Ski Resort and there is plenty of room for snowmobiling. With spring comes the fisherman and many participate in the lake's numerous bass tournaments. Saugeye, a fish similar to walleye, are also sought after and have gained the lake national attention.

We had a girl’s week and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Zettler Cottage. The property is beautiful, clean and has spectacular views of the lake. The sunsets are amazing. We highly recommend this property because it had everything we could ask for and more.
Wonderful property. Our Quad Squad got together for a fun weekend. We visited in November, so not much “lake” time. Enjoyed the wrap around porch and the fire pit. The room above the garage was great for watching football. It’s a great spot with beautiful views.
This place is fabulous and the view every morning and evening was a special gift. Chris was very accommodating of our request and it was much appreciated. Plenty of room to roam and relax and also a full service kitchen at our disposal. Looking forward to booking again soon.
My family and sisters family had a great time, spent hours on the lake each day boating, paddling and floating. Wonderful outdoor space allowed us to spread out and have a great time. Sunsets are stunning and it is a quiet area.
It is not Memorial Day without a stay at Indian Lake. Our family loves Zettler Cottage and we are looking forward to returning in 2026 with our first grandchild.
Everything was beautiful. One area of conversation ncern was the railings outside weren’t secure in spots. This is a concern for an older group. Thanks for your efforts to keep this a beautiful family get together. The views are stunning.
The house is very nice. The location is great and easy to find. The back patio is awesome. We got to enjoy it between the rains. The dock was perfect for the the guys's fishing boats. It was a relaxing stay. We would definately go back.
The house was roomy and was situated with a near perfect view of the lake. The three tier patio and porch really made it feel like resort living. It was perfect with plenty of seating on all levels. Access to the water was so easy and fun with our rafts. It also accommodated fishing from the dock. I wish the gathering room inside the door was larger, but, other than that, it was a great vacation place. So great that we already booked for next year!
Always enjoy our family weekend at Zettler Cottage. Great location, lots of room for everyone and you can’t beat the view! Especially loved the new outdoor area with built-in fire pit and additional seating areas. Totally recommend!
A weekend reunion for seven cousins was held at Zettler House. There was plenty of parking and the gathering space was perfect. The large table accommodated ten people for eating and games and we loved the living area with a direct view of the lake.
Zettler Cottage is a great place for your family or friends getaway. Plenty of room for all, whether you are inside or outside. The 4-tier patio is a great way to watch lakelife or swim, fish, play games, sitting around the firepit, or just relaxing in the many chairs, especially the rocking chairs. The kitchen is well stocked with whatever you might need to cook or just want to make a special cocktail. You can't go wrong in staying here.
We had a wonderful weekend at Zettler cottage. We have used this property numerous times for our weekend getaways. The house is a perfect size and has a wonderful view.
