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.

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!

Beautiful Roomy Cabin in the Woods

The Lincoln Log Lodge was the perfect spot for our little family gathering. The setting is pretty and near to lots of attractions. The house itself was very spacious with lots of room to spread out and relax. Beds were very comfy. Bathrooms were clean and in good condition. Our favorite room was the beautiful screened in sun porch. We loved sitting out there and listening to the sounds of the woods in the evening or drinking coffee there in the morning. Lots of comfy seating. We also loved the fire pit area. We really enjoyed the house and would definitely stay there again.

Great location for visiting Indiana Dune National Park

This was really a wonderful place to stay. Lots of room. Clean. Kitchen fully equipped. Our only complaint was the water which smelled like chemicals. We Googled the water quality which confirmed levels of a number of chemicals were high. We bought several gallons of water at the local store; once we did that it was not a problem, but you might want alert renters that they will want to bring their own drinking water.

Perfect Christmas Lincoln Log Lodge Stay

We had a great Christmas at Lincoln Log Lodge - the openness was perfect for our family - we shared food, games, laughter & made memories to last forever. The lodge & property are better than photos! We would recommend this for an off-beach season place to stay and it would even be more amazing in summertime. Bottled water jugs were provided & we brought more of our own for drinking / food prep. For showering, etc. the water is fine.

Great place off the beaten path for friends/fun/craft weekend!

The living/kitchen/dining was spacious. Lots of outlets for crafting. The light during the day was amazing ..grabbed a few table lamps for late night crafting. I would recommend bringing filtered water as the house has well water. The check out instructions via email compared to the ones on the refrigerator are slightly different but pretty close anyway. After checkout we went to Sophie’s for brunch…highly recommended!

water pressure

It was fine except for the water pressure, which was very weak. It would have been helpful to have more instructions about how to work things, like the stove top and the dishwasher. We figured it out, but by trial and error.
