Had a wonderful visit

This was such a charming lakefront cottage with absolutely fantastic views. We loved sitting on the front porch each evening, watching the beautiful sunsets over the lake. The cottage is located in the heart of Amish country, and it was a unique experience to occasionally see horse-drawn buggies traveling along the road in front of the property.The host was wonderful—friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and appreciated how conveniently located the cottage was to so many local attractions and activities.The lake itself is gorgeous, with a sandy bottom and easy access for swimming and enjoying the water. It was also nice to have plenty of other activities nearby, including the Pumpkinvine Nature Trail for biking (with bike rentals available in Shipshewana), horseback riding near Bristol, quaint shops, Amish markets, and great local restaurants. We especially enjoyed visiting Dutch Creek Animal Park, which was a fun experience for all ages.Between the beautiful lakefront setting, the comfortable cottage, and the abundance of nearby attractions, this was truly a fantastic stay. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to others looking for a relaxing getaway in Amish country.

The best part of our stay was the Amish community & seeing their horse ridden carriages everywhere! The rental was quaint. And yes, there is a street that you have to cross to get to your part of the lake which mind you had some a tad aggressive driver's coming through. I was also kind of disappointed that when I specified my son who has Down Syndrome was scheduled to have surgery a day before our scheduled leave which ,unfortunately required us to cut our stay one day short I did not even get an email saying sorry about our situation, not even offered a credit toward another stay for a future stay or even half off for that one day. I get it was a week before our stay that our situation changed beyond our control but, having empathy as opposed to always being about profit speaks volumes..it left a bad impression. David did say we could utilize the paddle boat/kayaks that he does normally charge for free since we were leaving a day earlier. Yes we used paddle boat but the control & rudder were out of sync & impossible to maneuver! We just turned back! I also wish I was informed prior to our stay the policies of what a renter is required to do before we head out. When we were texted in the morning at 10:45 am asking when we would be heading out I told David that we were heading out the door in 2 min, only then did he tell us we were to strip every bed/pillow we used during our stay & put all plugs back in sockets! His reasoning was "O I wasn't sure when we were heading out!" Um you knew we had to cut our vacay one day short so a text the day before would have made sense but, we never got one!! Communication was lacking! Overall, the rental was clean & the view of lake was eye pleasing no doubt. I did keep my cool despite these frustrations! Please buy or bring all your spices and cooking oil if you plan to cook!!
