Great location to go to Indiana Beach. First arrived smelled very musty but once got the dehumidifier going helped alot ( had to empty it 7 times on our 2 day stay ) Got back from a long day at the Beach and found ourselves locked out because I locked the inside of the door.not reliezing was suppose to lock the deadbolt. Luckly the neighbor had the door key to get use in. Overall was a nice stay.

Little Lakehouse
My friend and I stayed at this location for a chill girl's weekend. The couch was very comfortable for reading and chatting. In warmer weather, the deck would have been a great spot, but we were still happy with the windows that let in plenty of sunlight. There were quite a few stairs, which surprised me, but might have been somewhere in the listing I missed. The only other inconvenience was the height of the table with the bar stools. The stools were too high to comfortably sit at the table. I was able to pull up the coffee table to the couch for meals, but other activities that would have been better at a table, like board games or coloring, were not really comfortable. Overall, I would stay here again for a small get together.

Great place to visit when heading to Purdue
It was about 35 minutes of of West Lafayette, but perfect for avoiding the crowds on a football weekend. Nicely stocked kitchen so I could prepare food for a tailgate. And cozy living room for chilling out after the game.
The reviews on this property are outstanding, so we must have caught it on a down weekend. It had rained quite a bit before the trip, and the inside was very musty; the small dehumidifier wasn't up to the task. The bathroom was not particularly clean, neither shower nor stool. It was also a 45-50 minute drive to the Purdue campus, not 30-35. We had a good weekend - it could be a great spot for a lake weekend, but our experience was just okay.
Exactly above & beyond af many basic needs could imagine! I wanted a cottage camping with luxuries was just !!! Price was perfect for fixed income vac with kiddos. They are still releasing the great experience with thier parents!!! Took alot of stress as the kids had space for their privacy chill areas. Thanks for making this happen for my family!!!prive

Holiday Weekend Getaway
My family and I loved this little cottage. Perfect size for 4 adults, and the outdoor space on the deck was great for relaxing when we returned from our planned adventures!

Very cozy/relaxing spot
It was very cozy which we enjoyed. Being right by the water was neat and everyone around seemed pretty friendly. Its just a short drive to indiana beach which was very nice and a walmart is only a few mins away also. The property owner was very prompt whenever i messaged her with any questions

Weekend for Purdue football .
The property was perfect for a place to sleep while visiting son at Purdue. The drive was easy from campus and about 30-35 minutes from campus. The host gave some restaurant options and we chose Anglers Restaurant. We really enjoyed.

Great home off the beaten path!
We had a great time at this home. First, our communication with Maggie was incredible; she went above and beyond what we've ever experienced by way of host tips and recommendations, and without ever having to ask. The house itself was cute and cozy, and - must importantly - clean. (Can I get an Amen for being able to walk around barefoot or in socks without dirty black feet afterwards?!) It took a few winding roads to find the house but we quickly got used to it. The neighborhood was also super friendly - you don't feel like an outsider getting the "side eye." Great experience!
