Sylvan Lake escape for 2: private island, indoor hot tub, 84' pier

Rome City, Indiana, United States

Coffee on the deck while mist lifts off Sylvan Lake. The whole property is yours, just the two of you. A queen bedroom with ensuite bath, a vaulted great room facing the water, and an indoor cedar hot tub off the game room. A 72-foot footbridge crosses to your private island... nearly 300 feet of shoreline, an 84-foot pier, and a stone fire pit beneath mature trees. Coffee at sunrise, sunset cocktails on the pier, fire on the island after dark. The entire property to yourselves.brbr⸻brbrHilltop Haven is a 5-bedroom lakefront home offered in three flexible layouts to fit different group sizes. The 1-bedroom layout, built for couples, opens the full property for the two of you. Whichever layout a guest books, the home, island, pier, and grounds are theirs alone... never shared with another guest.brbr⸻brbr **A slower kind of stay**brbrDays move slow at Hilltop Haven. Slow mornings in the great room with the lake filling the wall of windows. A walk to Sower's Tea Room (five minutes on foot) for coffee and pastries, or a 15-minute hike through the gardens at the Gene Stratton-Porter Historic Site (Limberlost). The chef's kitchen handles whatever you brought back from town. Afternoons in the game room over a long pool match, or curled up by the great room TV.brbrEvenings start on the pier. A cocktail in hand, the sun dropping behind the far shoreline, the lake catching the last of the light. Then a fire under the trees on the island... 10 chairs and your choice of seat. Dinner at Dock's Landing, a sit-down lake bar with full dinners just around the cove (paddle over in summer, short drive in winter). Back inside for the hot tub, with the lake dark and quiet beyond the windows.brbrThe cedar hot tub runs year-round, indoors in its own room off the game room. Fall colors over the water, a winter morning watching the lake freeze, the first warm days of spring with the deck doors open. Soak with the snow falling outside or the leaves turning red.brbrWhen weather and the season cooperate (early spring through October), you'll also have the kayaks, paddleboards, pedal boat, and bikes. Paddle out to Boy Scout Island, a short trip from our pier, for a wooded loop trail and a public dock. Or ride the Fishing Line Trail just behind the house... 12 paved miles to Kendallville and back. The pier is in by mid-spring and stays through fall.brbr⸻brbr **What you get**brbr**Sleeping**br- Bedroom 2: queen bed, ensuite bath, lake viewsbr- Lake View Sitting Room: loveseat with twin pull-outbr- Great Room: queen sleeper sofabrbrBuilt for couples, with additional sleeping options if needed.brbr**Bathrooms**br- 2 full baths (ensuite to BR2, plus main level with walk-in shower)brbr**Living spaces (all yours)**br- Vaulted great room with wall of windows and 65 HDTVbr- Chef's kitchen with double oven and live-edge dining tablebr- Game room with pool table, kitchenette, and TVbr- Indoor cedar hot tub in its own room off the game room (year-round)br- Wraparound deck with Weber grill and lounge seatingbr- Laundry roombrbr**Outdoor (yours alone)**br- Private island with nearly 300 feet of shoreline, stone fire pit, 10 Adirondack chairs, and picnic table beneath mature treesbr- 72-foot footbridge connecting house to islandbr- 84-foot pier with built-in benches (in by mid-spring, removed by November)br- Wraparound deck overlooking the lakefront gardens (garden paths open spring through fall)brbr**Recreation (complimentary, seasonal)**br- 1 double kayak, 2 single kayaks, 2 SUPs, 1 pedal boat, 1 floating matbr- 4 adult bikes, 2 tween bikes, 2 kids' bikes (helmets included)br- Life vests in all sizesbr- Firewood year-roundbrbrPier, kayaks, and pedal boat return in early spring.
