Beautiful home and convenient

Did not expect home to be in a neighborhood and outside could use a bit of sprucing up. Bedrooms a bit crowded but living areas quite spacious. Could use a blow dryer. Saw many deer right in the yard. Overall stay was quite satisfying.

Fun getaway with friends

Great space, comfortable beds, excellent indoor/outdoor seating and comfort. We spent a lot of time sitting around the tables playing games and the lighting was the only challenge. Probably nothing they can do about it but if you need more light, come prepared!

Beautiful and comfy

We very much enjoyed out stay at your beautiful house!! Very comfortable, cozy and relaxing. The perfect place for friends to reunite! The only issues we had were with the thermostat and the tv remote. Both of which were minor and may have been operator error. Oh, and there were discrepancies between the check out instructions on the fridge and the email sent the day prior to leaving. Thank you and we hope to get to come stay at your home again.

Lincoln log lodge stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful, well maintained. We walked to the water in less than 20 minutes. When I booked I thought it was near the main complex with ball courts and playground so at first we were disappointed it was off site. But a 10 minute walk to Michiana park we weee pleased to see a very nice facility and much less crowded so I think it worked out better this way!

Lots of deer!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We got to see lots of deer right outside the screened porch! The cabin was nice - TVs in two of the bedrooms, not in third. We didn't use third bedroom but would have been quite cramped had we had ppl in there. A bund bed (double size top and bottom) and a full size futon that probably woulnd't have pulled out but in a pinch could have been used. Again - we didn't use that room at all, so not relevant for us. Nice fireplace - only a few logs provided so buy some if you plan to use it - we did not - not cold enough. Definitely bring extra TP and paper towels - says so in the instructions, but in case you just click and sign :) Overall a good stay. Great location for access to dining, casino, beach access, and plenty of wineries and breweries nearby. Enjoyed our stay.

We were there for a long weekend girls trip, the house was great, had everything we needed, it was clean and well stocked. Enjoyed the backyard oasis along with the screened in porch. We had outside bonfire every morning and night we were there. Best "camping" trip ever! Thank you so much for letting us use your beautiful cabin.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location and layout. Maintenance could use updating. Had a broken tv on check in that never was repaired and carpets needed cleaned in primary bedroom. Outside should be power washed and windows cleaned. Loved the home itself as lots of family space and screened deck was nice. Very quiet and peaceful. Left multiple messages to property management regarding tv with response late in week and all they did was say yep it’s broken. Then they wanted to charge us for reporting it on check-in. Get a new management company because home itself is nice but management company is not responsive and doesn’t keep up property.

Sibling weekend

My sibs and I (and spouses) get together once a year to reconnect and have some laughs. Really enjoyed this woodsy spot, though there were so many light switches and many of the lights were sterile-white instead of warm and cozy. But really appreciated the cleanliness, and all the windows and amenities. Thanks!

Girl's Weekend

This house provided us with a wonderful weekend. The location was ideal for taking long walks & was conveniently located to a winery & the Botanical Garden. The house was clean & adequately equipped. That being said, it was a bit hodge-podge & not necessarily high end, but everything worked & we had a great time. We took advantage of the ping pong table & darts too!

Ultra considerate

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: this experience can be best described as CONSIDERATE. This property is managed by people whom obviously are professionals. There are many nuances of consideration. labels on light switches and remotes, shampoo and soap out, darts for the board, nice paddles and ping pong balls, clean dishes and well stocked kitchen, QR code for the "maual" which has things nearby etc..., there was a sign for the wifi. Just plenty of consideration for the renter whomever you may be.
