What a beautiful retreat! I felt as though I walked into a Pier 1 store as the furnishings are bright, clean and "beachy". The hosts are extremely responsive and the view from the sun porch is stunning. Thank you!

Thank you for the lakeside stay! Overall we had a great experience. The small private lake was perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding and swimming. We bring our lab along because she loves swimming in the lake as much (or more!) than the humans so we appreciate the pet friendly environment. The furniture was comfortable as well during our stay. A few suggestions, the home could use a deep clean. Would love to see the master bathroom redone with a larger shower and remove the tub all together. Close to local grocery stores, ice cream and restaurants. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect winter getaway
There is nothing like relaxing in a hot tub while it’s snowing and looking out over a frozen lake during a full moon. Our stay at the Water’s Edge was exactly what we needed. The cottage is beautiful, modern and the area is quiet and serene.

Winter Getaway.
This was the perfect winter getaway. We visited our nephew at Trine University for his weekend volleyball tournament. The location was a short drive, which made it ideal for a Trine visit and tobogganing At Pokagon State Park. Afterwards, we brought home pizza and enjoyed warming up in the hot tub. Our stay was perfect and enjoyable. The host communicated well and the house was perfect for our stay. Plan to book next year!!!!
