My family stayed at this beautiful home last weekend for a Grace College Graduation.Plenty of room for the 8 of us and gathering areas for us to visit. Kitchen well stocked with cooking items ( I do most of the cooking at the homes we stay)Good communication with the owner, easy to get in the home. There is so much to do in nearby Winona Lake, beautiful area!
We enjoyed our stay, the house was clean & comfortable. We especially enjoyed the Foos Ball, Ping Pong & Monopoly. The host was responsive and accommodated a few special requests.
The amount of space is wonderful and the property was gorgeous. It's tucked away a bit but I think that's the charm. Wonderful for a weekend getaway! Thank you to the owners for making the stay easy.
This place met and exceeded our expectations for our family Thanksgiving get together. We had 8 of us total staying ranging from 8-75 and everyone just loved the house. The highlights: The Wifi is fast - you don't usually see that in a rural setting. The ping pong table and foosball table where big hits with all ages. The porch was a great space to enjoy some coffee and reflect while looking out at the lake. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Did I mention the lovely welcome basket that was left for us - amazing! All in all, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Virginia couldn't have been any more accommodating and I can't recommend her and the property enough.
We picked the location so some of the family could attend the Ohio State v Notre Dame football game. We had fans from both sides in the family. No tension though đ My daughter and I enjoyed a quiet evening binging a murder mystery on our prime video account which we had no problem connecting to. Kitchen had everything needed. The lake house was very clean and had lots of room to gather or get away from each other. My sister in law is moving to Australia and gave us boxes of old photos and memorabilia which we looked through while sitting in the screened in porch with a great view of the swans in the lake. We will all have good memories of our stay.
The house is much bigger and nicer than the pictures show. The bedrooms are very roomy, but the common areas are HUGE! And it's very clean. The porch with the coffee spot was a big hit with our family. And the downstairs bar was cool (we stayed the weekend Jimmy Buffet passed, so the neon "It's 5:00 somewhere" sign was very fitting). Downstairs has a foosball table and a large collection of board games. There's also a full laundry room with utility sink and even a sewing kit. The ping pong table in the garage was also a hit. The kitchen is very well-equipped with tools and pots/pans that are much nicer than other places we have stayed. And there are so many activities for the kids that they didn't even want to watch the giant TVs except when it rained. Paddle boat, kayaks, giant lily pad. The dock was nice for fishing...there's a lot bass along the shore in this lake. There was a tournament the weekend we were there, and the fisherman hit their limit and were using scales to release their lightest catch just a few hours in. They used a lot of frog lures. But no big motors, so was still relaxing. We are trying to figure out when we can make it up again. This place is a hidden gem!
The property is very clean, most things are provided by the host. The views are spectacular. Very nice plce for vacation or weekend stay. We were very stisfied during our stay.
Nice very clean house inside. Outside needs power washing. An animal dug into yard on side of house. Donât know what kind, never saw it. We stayed inside very nice
The property is well kept. Great amenities, quite spacious, and perfect for enjoying time with family. Thanks very much for all the information given and welcome notes.
Family was looking for a large place to get away to and found it. Host was great with communication. Easy in and easy out just as described in the listing.
The house was very clean with several different spaces for visiting with friends. The kitchen and breakfast area had all the needed items. The windows both upstairs and down were perfect for viewing the lake.
The pictures are exactly what youâre property is- however - the pictures donât do justice to the cleanliness, size and accommodations! We stayed and were overly impressed with the setup of the downstairs and family room!
