Perfect Stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at your house on the river! The home was very clean, beds were comfortable and the view was so peaceful! The family really enjoyed fishing and the set-up even allowed a toddler to run around and play in the backyard! Everything was very spacious for us and we had everything we needed! Thank you so much for your hospitality and thank you for the special treats upon arrival!

Graduation weekend stay

It was a perfect place to stay away from the hub bub of graduation at Purdue. Quiet and relaxing after long days of graduation and parties. Loved the fishing off the pier and the large outdoor deck overlooking the river. Much easier for the 85 yo mother/grandmother to enjoy her grand daughter’s graduation from Pharmacy school. Her pride and joy.

Lovely stay

Loved our time here. Great communication & clearly a lot of care had been taken to make sure all aspects of our stay were enjoyable. We had beautiful weather and really enjoyed the outdoor areas as well, got to watch herons, eagles, & a family of baby geese visiting the river. We were also pleased to find a nice fenced area below the top deck for our boys to play that had a yard game & places to relax. Conveniently located too, would definitely stay again.

Awesome family getaway

We stayed for a week, while visiting Indiana Beach. What an amazing house! Every need was catered for with a very well stocked house. Great deck at the back for early morning coffee and sundowners after a long, hot day! Comfortable and big enough for our whole family! It felt like being home- a very stylish home! We will definitely be back!

Beautiful Home Right On The River!

Our family had a wonderful time staying here. The backyard has stunning views of the Tippecanoe River. My boys had so much fun fishing from their dock and they caught a lot of fish too. The house is beautifully decorated, clean and cozy. I really enjoyed relaxing in the hammock in the backyard while looking out at the river. We liked how the house is located close to Indiana Beach park, the bait shop and restaurants. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful home. We're hoping to be back soon.
