Great porch!
The porch was wonderful although we couldn’t sleep out there because of air quality! The lot was beautiful. And location just off the lake was great! We enjoyed the bbq and fire pit. The home itself is dated and could use some freshening up but we were mostly outside or in the porch! It was wonderful to have the pontoon and my grandkids surely enjoyed that! Greg was there when we needed him! Our family loves Wawassee!!!!

A really awesome lake rental!
Our family had a fantastic stay here and made some phenomenal memories. The location and large lot were really nice. Plenty of room for sleeping for the whole family as well. Being right off the lake in the channel and not on the lake shore was nice, especially a couple days when it was windy. The fact we could bring the whole family (including the dog) is something that’s always great. I thought the place had a good charm. We stay at a lot of rentals and this place was as well stocked as any place we’ve ever stayed. Fishing poles, tube, extra fridge in the garage, paper towel, sunscreen (bc our kids lost our one day), tons of bedding, etc. You name it, it was there! Greg was a very responsive host and was great with communication from the get go. The gas grill on the deck was 5 times as nice as any grill I’ve ever used at a rental and made for a few great evenings of making dinner. Kids really enjoyed fishing out front and the fish in the channel seemed pretty active. The turtles on ‘Turtle Point’ provided a lot of entertainment for them too. The pontoon was a huge plus and we used it all but one day. If you’ve never been to Wawasee, it’s really one of Indiana’s best lakes. Can’t say enough good things about our stay. Definitely looking forward to another stay!

Loved the location
Overall we liked it…some things could be done to improve the experience. If you’re a neat freak, you’ll have the urge to clean cobwebs off the porch screen, change the furnace filter, organize the garage. But sitting on the decks watching the boats head out to the lake was very enjoyable.

Great Location!
The location of this house is its best attribute! The fact that it comes with a pontoon boat was the icing on the cake. It’s a five minute ride to the sand bar, which is a perfect location to hang out. It’s also a short drive by car to groceries and restaurants. We also boated one evening to The Frog. My two critiques are the house is in need of updates and the yard needs a geese prevention,

Great Summer Vacation
The cottage was well stocked with anything one might need for an enjoyable stay. The information in the binder was most helpful in navigating the lake and cottage functions. We will definitely return to your family summer home. Thank you for hosting a great getaway.

Made for Fantastic Vacation Memories
Our family vacation with kids and Grandkids, there was plenty of room for us all to stay comfortably and lots of storage space for all our bags and clothes. The pontoon and kayaks and paddle boat were a huge plus that we got lots of enjoyment out of. Fantastic location right off lake in a quiet channel with a great pier and sandbar not far away. We highly recommend! Thank you so much for allowing us to spend time in your family’s lake home.

Bungalow with great outdoor space
Old but wonderful...had to put away the outlet plug ins and candles when we arrived because it was too overwhelming and that brought out the old wood, lake smell by the end of the week. Greg was a great host and easy to communicate with! The house was well stocked and the outdoor space and boat was amazing, as we arrived late on Friday and hopped right on for an evening boat ride (easy to navigate and park on the huge pier)! Neighborhood is quiet and nice for walks!
