2 bdrm/1bth house/boat dock

ToniaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Lacy’s place is awesome and so is Lacy! The house was super clean and exactly what we wanted for a quiet relaxing vacation. We really enjoyed the kayaks, the fire pit and the deck on the water. My husband was fishing all the time! We ran out of propane for the grill but within 5 minutes Lacy had her dad bring one to us! What great service!!! Would definitely go back

PatriciaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
The cabin was clean and cozy. Had everything we needed for our stay. Appreciated the ability to control the heat in each room. Although Mother Nature didn't cooperate during our stay (cool, rain, cool), we enjoyed the time away. So VERY quiet!!! A number of cabins/houses on the lane, but we definitely had plenty of 'breathing room' - not right up side by side of each other....I like to have some space. We probably didn't see a dozen people the day and half we were there, and didn't hear another voice the entire time. So very peaceful and quiet and relaxing!!!! Just the birds and other sounds of nature. My grandson and I really enjoyed playing cornhole - on the screened in porch (since it was cool and rainy, grass/ground wet after rain did stop in afternoon). And, we had so many laughs taking turns asking each other questions from the Family Feud game available at the cabin. Christine was very responsive to the questions I had after I reserved the place.

Sunshine, Daydream

AndrewRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We had a great peaceful five days at the lake, very quiet and relaxing. The steps were a challenge, but we handled them. We made use of kayaks and fire pit which both had the equipment needed. We will definitely return but later into summer next time as it was kinda chilly our first few days. All and all it was a great vacation get away.

Lake house in Rochester

AmandaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I can’t say enough wonderful things about my stay at the lake cottage. I came to town expecting to stay just a couple nights. When my plans changed due to unforeseen circumstances, the host was quick to help me extend my stay which eased the stress of the situation. The view is absolutely stunning, and the deck is a great place to watch it from. One couldn’t ask for a better view from the main bedroom, living room, or kitchen. The bed was very comfortable, as was the rest of the furniture. The home is beautifully decorated, and well taken care of. The kayaks were a nice addition. This became a soothing place for my soul, and was the perfect retreat. I loved this home and hope to visit again.

The Ice House

JeffRating, 5 stars10 months ago
So glad I stumbled upon Steph's Ice House listing. Had a peaceful, almost secluded stay yet close to the many Shipshewana attractions. Impeccably clean and decorated, with modern amenities which would be fantastic for an extended stay. Steph sent a greeting message immediately after my booking and followed up with detailed instructions and area tips. Was pleasantly surprised with doughnuts and popcorn when I arrived, a very nice touch. Looking forward to booking with her again!

Lakeside Cabin

SydneyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The most unique place I've ever stayed! My family was in town for a wedding at Oakwood Resort which was very convenient. We lucked out with the weather and in our free time spent a lot of time walking, sitting in the chairs out back, and hanging inside with the screen door open. We also utilized the movie theatre upstairs in the loft area & hosts provided candy! Very cozy weekend. Slept great with the train noise. Bring headphones if you fear it will keep you up, they are frequent! No issues, would definitely come back!

Wonderful place to stay at for the weekend! We had gloomy weather, so we weren’t able to enjoy getting outdoors, but it was so peaceful so we just curled up with a good book! Make sure you check out nearby Dygert Nature Preserve! There was a break in the rain and we made good use of it by stretching our legs on this short hike!

This was our second stay at Wildwood and it was just as lovely as the first time. We wanted to spend some time in Shipshewana, Middlebury and Goshen and this location is perfect for all those places. It's so peaceful and has everything you could need. The cookies Lynette leaves are DELISH and she's so quick to respond if you should need anything. I'm sure we'll be back again some day!

Your guide to Winona Lake

All About Winona Lake

Winona Lake is a small town in Indiana nestled on the shore of its namesake, sitting a few hours between the major cities of Detroit and Chicago. With more than 100 natural lakes in the surrounding area, this is a wonderland of water, where people come to sail, swim, and relax on the shore. Anglers are in their element here — the lake’s calm waters are home to over 30 species, including longear sunfish and bluegill.

Winona Lake is a popular spot for kayaking and mountain biking on the Winona Lake Trail, which winds its way through dense woodland and over twisting purpose-built bridges. There’s also a splash pad right at Limitless Park on the shore of the lake, where locals come to cool off during baking Indiana summers. The restored Village at Winona offers plenty of pretty waterfront spots to linger over a coffee, indulge in ice cream, and pick up some nautical-themed homeware.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Winona Lake

During the summer, warm, sunny days attract visitors looking to get out on the lake with their paddleboards and kayaks. This also tends to be the busiest time of the year, with local events including the four-day Mermaid Festival held in the nearby town of North Webster. During fall, the trees that frame the lake burst into a kaleidoscope of red, yellow, and orange. The winter can get very cold, but this is a great time to cross-country ski or ice fish out on the frozen water. In the spring, the ice starts to thaw and the flowers begin to bloom. On Memorial Day weekend, the Northern Indiana Lakes Festival is held at Center Lake Park in the neighboring city of Warsaw, complete with adventure races, entertainment, and fireworks marking the beginning of summer.


Top things to do in Winona Lake

The Village at Winona

Located on its own little island just off the shore of Winona Lake, the Village was in a state of decline in the 1970s. The community pulled together to restore many of the old wooden summer homes and transform them into boutiques selling artisanal foodstuffs and mom-and-pop eateries looking out over the water. Locals come out to watch the cardboard boat race on Canal Days in August.

Scenic lakes

Winona Lake is surrounded by more than 100 lakes, providing ample opportunities for water sports and even a ride on one of Indiana’s oldest sternwheel tour boats at Webster Lake. A 10-minute drive away, Indiana’s only competitive water ski team performs regularly throughout the summer on Hidden Lake. The state’s largest natural lake, Lake Wawasee, is home to wooden boats galore, which join together for a weekly parade called the Thunder Run.

Winona Lake Trails

Starting a few streets back from the water’s edge, the Winona Lake Trails started life in 1902 as the Chicago Boys Camp, which offered children from Chicago the chance to immerse themselves in nature. The camp is now a well-maintained park with undulating trails leading you through tranquil wilderness, from babbling creeks to rolling meadows. Look out for mountain bikers — this is a popular route for adventurous visitors on two wheels.
