About this property

Family-friendly Comfortable Lakefront Cottage on beautiful Lake George

Experience all that lake living has to offer on one of Indiana's most beautiful spring-fed sports lakes which runs through the MI/IN border. Enjoy swimming, boating, skiing/tubing, jet skiing, sailing, fishing and relaxing while staying in a 1,440 sq ft 3 BR, 2 Bath open concept lakefront home. Kitchen is fully stocked with all utensils and all appliances including double oven, microwave, toaster, Keurig & Mr Coffee coffee maker, and extra full size refrigerator/freezer for cold beverages and food. Option for bed linens, bathroom & kitchen towels and washcloths provided, or bring your own. Full size high efficiency washer/dryer, dishwasher, and gas grill. 60 ft of frontage with great sandy beach perfect for children to play in the shallow water, along with far reaching views of the lake. Large dock for fishing and boat docking. Full width open deck provides plenty of room for everyone to lounge around and enjoy the outdoors. Nice size yard allows for plenty of outdoor games and sun lounging; wrapping up the evening with a nice lakeside bonfire. You will get the best of both worlds by enjoying the sunrise each morning on the front of the cottage and the beautiful sunset on the back side of the cottage. Two kayaks are available for your use. Pontoon Fishing Boat (17ft with 25 hp motor) available for weekly rental.
Enjoy the Lake George Sailboat Race each Saturday and Sunday. Watch folks reel in the big catch at one of the many fishing tournaments (the lake is fully stocked with Blue Gill, Bass, Walleye and many others). Enjoy a lake that allows time for no wake fishing and casual boat cruising. During the weekdays especially, the lake is quiet, which allows for non congested hassle-free boating, jet skiing and fishing. The cottage sits on a quiet cul-de-sac which also allows for a relaxing, peaceful stay. Many neighbors are full-time residents, so we encourage renters who are looking for a quiet, peaceful week. If you are looking for a rowdy, party-filled week, this is not the right property for you!
Located just minutes from fun dining. Also just a few miles from Indiana’s best state park, Pokagon, which features beaches, hiking, and a toboggan run in the winter. Also nearby are a variety of places: ice cream shops, theaters, antique shopping, mini-golf, go carting, Fremont Outlet Mall, Satek Winery, Wild Winds Buffalo Preserve, and golf courses.
The property is also a short 30-minute car ride to the Auburn/Cord Duesenberg and WWII Victory Museums. Another popular attraction just 45 minutes away is Shipshewana. Blueberry picking is 20 minutes away.

Magical experience
Terri’s lake cottage is the most perfect vacation. My family and I enjoyed every second of the lakefront property. We boated, swam, jet ski’d, kayaked, and enjoyed the fire pit and patio. Our kids had the time of their lives. This neighborhood is just so perfect and we can’t wait to come back next year. Thanks soooo much Terri!

About the host

Hosted by Terri & Matt Jenks

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 and purchased our cottage right after our first child was born. We wanted to provide a place for our family to build memories for a lifetime. A place where our kids as well as adults would have a great time. That has certainly been the case!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Lake George after visiting friends who owned a cottage on the lake. We live in the Metro Detroit Michigan area so going "south" to Indiana may seem strange. Yet after spending years fighting the bottle neck traffic up north each weekend in MIchigan, we welcomed the opposite commute. Getting to a beautiful lakeside home in 2 hours rather than 4-6 was most appealing!
Lake George has generations of families and that is reflected all around the lake. Everyone takes great pride in the lake and their homes & cottages. Lake George is rated one of the cleanest lakes in the area as it is spring fed and the residents are on top of weed control.

What makes this property unique

We chose our cottage first and foremost for the view! Nothing but boundless lake view with beautiful trees as a backdrop, which is spectacular in the Fall! We also loved the hard, sandy beach that extended out, which has allowed us hours of play time in the water over all these years! The open flat yard was also a requirement in order to spend all the time sun lounging, playing endless family games, and nightly bonfires - no matter what the temperature! The size of the cottage was perfect for our family. Having two bathrooms and all the amenities of a washer/dryer, dishwasher were a welcome bonus. The open concept was perfect for entertaining and a sleeper sofa in each room added extra sleeping. We fell in love immediately and have enjoyed our place since 2000!
