Quaint Lake Cottage

Loved every moment of our stay. The owner has clearly worked hard to create a beautifully decorated lake/cottage experience. Hope to return to this location again.

The perfect escape

My husband and I needed a quick getaway to unwind and connect. Sandy's place was perfect! it's less than 1 hour from Chicago and is so peaceful and serene. She provided ice and water bottles which really came in handy. The lake was beautiful, the house had everything we could have needed. We've already talked about making this a quarterly escape to connect and unwind. We'll be back for sure.

Definitely recommend

Sandy is an excellent host. This home is so well stocked and furnished. It is well thought out and so comfortable. Down to the electric powered chairs in the LR and adjustable queen bed. The view from the 4 season room is beautiful, relaxing and inviting. You will want to nothing here. We did not use the downstairs but there is a great movie watching space and another table for four and a full bath in the basement with a washer and dryer. Don’t think just book.

Very cute lake cottage. It is heavily decorated, almost making you feel like you’re living in a showplace, not a cozy cottage. Overall price is very exorbitant, and the Wi-Fi did not work the 2nd Day I was there which is a real problem because cell service is very poor. Not a place I would stay a second time.

Birds, birds, birds

I don’t often miss vacation rentals, but this cottage we do. It’s like a clown car…..didn’t seem very big, but once you get inside there are all kinds of rooms and spaces to hang out. This place was so clean and beautiful, plus the views will make your jaw drop. I’m local to the area (we were having renovations done) and have never seen so many water birds up close. it was a thrill….eagle, cormorants, terns, great blue herons that landed on the pier in front of us and was there to greet us in the morning. We simply love this gem and Sandy is the ultimate hostess; warm, kind, and clearly generous given all she provides to guests. She made this lake life experience unforgettable!

Breathtaking!!!

By far, this was the most beautiful home i have stayed in to date. I couldn't be more appreciative of the hospitality that Sandy had offered. Pictures do NOT do this place justice. Gorgeous home, breathtaking views, extremely cozy, and it was extremely hard for me to pack up and leave. I felt like I was "Home"! Now I'm looking into buying a lake house for myself. Thank you so much and I hope to stay here again in the near future.

Beautiful house

Our family enjoyed our stay overall. The house utilizes its space really well and feels larger than it is. Decor was great. The room overlooking the lake makes for a relaxing morning and evening (when others on the lake aren't bumping their music, which did happen for a few hours the first night). Kids really loved the little putting greens. Was a great stay for a family of four. Only issues were there were a lot of pest bugs outside, including two active yellow jack nests right on steps near the lake and wasp nest right above the front door that led to a wasp coming in when we first entered. Lots of spiders as well made it difficult to fully enjoy the outdoors. Owner said lake attracts spiders and they tried to clean them away, but many were prominent and had clearly been there for some time. Wifi also went out after first night and was unable to be turned back on.

Location!

We needed a place close to Crown point and this home didn’t disappoint! The house was decorated as a lake house and the view to the lake is beautiful and peaceful! We didn’t get to spend a lot of time at the home but the time we did we spent mostly on the porch or in the basement in the media room. The bunk room was smaller than we anticipated but the basement made up for that! Our teenagers made the basement work and they enjoyed the big TV and the space to themselves. I took advantage of the porch and spent my mornings looking over the lake and enjoying the views! The sitting room had plenty of room with the pull out couch and offered cute seating as well. The bathrooms are both updated and spacious. The washer and dryer was a great option for us being softball parents we were able to wash uniforms!!! We only had a few small things that were not so great the thermostat is newer and was not user friendly in my opinion. Also it was difficult to override the settings. But we made due and kept an eye on it after day 1. A few other items but nothing we didn’t handle on our own and communication with the owner was great. Overall we loved it! I will definitely be looking to visit again! Oh another great amenity is I was able to park in the attached garage! How great! Definitely a place to relax or as we needed perfect location! Thanks for the opportunity to stay!

Luxurious accommodations

This is one of the nicest places we've ever stayed with VRBO! It is clear that the host Sandy has taken a lot of care to make it the most chic and comfortable home. We loved being right on the lake - looking out at the water from the sunroom at all hours of the day, swimming, fishing off the pier (and we were only there 3 days!). It is probably more suited to a family with two parents and a couple of kids, as our friend staying with us found the bunk beds too small for an adult, but she just slept on the couch in one of the three living rooms.

Lovely, Immaculate Lakefront House

My husband and I were extremely pleased with this lakefront house. The house was immaculate when we arrived. Very nicely decorated with very comfortable chairs/couches, etc. Kitchen had pretty much everthing you might need for meal prep and service for a couple or family. Do bring spices/herbs, etc. if you are planning serious cooking. The house could easily accommodate a family, with separate areas where kids could hang out, even though the house is not huge. Definitely not a "party house". Was a perfect place for a much needed getaway.
