Museums, antique shops, mall shopping, water parks, bowling, axe throwing, archery, movie theatres & other great places to eat are nearby. Linens, towels & washer/dryer are in the home so just bring food & drinks & you're set.

Cozy up on those cold nights with 2 stone fireplaces & a 2 person jacuzzi tub in the master suite. Feels like Wisconsin & similar to Paw Paw or Sister's Lake in Michigan.

    Bill was amazing with our accommodations. We stayed with 2 other families with kids and every need was met! The kids loved swimming and fishing in the lake. We hope to come back every year!

    We were there for a week with a family group of 12 and really enjoyed the lake and house! It was 90 degrees the whole week and the air conditioning kept up beautifully. Enjoyed the restaurants around the lake and the kids loved the ice cream shop down the street.

    Bill and his property were amazing. They came in clutch with a flexible and accommodating last minute booking after a different reservation cancelled a few days before our trip. The place fit our group of 11 perfectly, with plenty of indoor and outdoor space to relax and enjoy.

    Our group of 8 came to this wonderful Log Home for a week in order to see our grandson's nearby baseball tournament. That was a lot of fun, but what appealed even more was the relaxing time we had inside cooking and playing board games, or the many hours fishing and swimming from the dock. And the sunsets were amazing! The owners were great to work with, too. Regardless of baseball, we plan to return for another relaxing time!

    Last minute booking for our family for a long weekend. Great property and location. Will look to book for a longer stay in the near future.

    The home was very clean, had plenty of space for our group of 10, and was conveniently located right on Cedar Lake. The dock was perfect for watching sunsets and easy to dock our boat. Close to the public beach and shopping/dining in nearby Crown Point. Bill was a great host and we would definitely stay here again.

    We spent a long weekend at the Lakehouse. There were 10 of us for a family reunion; still, the house felt comfortable and spacious. The extra living area upstairs was a bonus, as everyone had their space. We had a wonderful time and wished we had booked it for a more extended period. The view of the lake at the bottom of the beautiful, sloped lawn from the house was out of this world. Although the lake is relatively shallow, we had fun swimming from the dock. The pictures of the house are very accurate. The owner, Bill, contacts you after you book the house. He is very approachable and accommodating. We cooked all our meals as none of the restaurants in the town had a better view than us. There is a well-stocked kitchen with all the pots, pans, and utensils. The barbecue was very handy, and having a family meal on the large deck was wonderful. The beds are very comfortable, and the three full bathrooms are handy. We took many card and board games along, but Bill already had a large stock in the house. We also want to recommend the local museum, which is just 5 minutes away by car, and was a fascinating look at the region from the ice age to the present! There is also a convenient canoe and kayak rental nearby. We highly recommend this Lakehouse and would definitely visit again.
