Cottage on beautiful Lake James

Location, location, location! Walking distance to restaurants and activities. On private lane leading to four corners, Paradise Cafe, Tom’s Donuts, The Corner Landing, The Waterfront Bistro, and more.

3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage on the second basin on Lake James. Sandy beach and dock. Fully furnished with cable TV, WIFI, A/C, washer and dryer. Front and back lot. Dock for boat, jet skis. Trailer can be stored on back lot. Plenty of parking spots.

Family neighborhood so tenants should be adult families, kids and relatives, friends. Not recommended for young people desiring loud partying. If you want to rent after Labor Day until Memorial Day contact land lord so special arrangements can be made.

Who’s got it better than you? Possibly no one if you rent this place!

This is our second stay and just booked for next year!! The property is perfect as there are not a lot of stairs and the beach area right at the property front is awesome! Mike is a class act host and we couldn’t ask for a better find for a vacation close to home!

Great Beach
The property has a great beach and we ended up using the beach more than going out on our boat. It was a great place to bring our 14 month old Granddaughter. He had a great time.

Nice Cottage
The location is perfect, with a nice flat yard extending to the lake. If you like soft beds, you will love this cottage. The only problem we encountered was that the book listing all the details (garbage pickup day, instructions to operate TV, etc.) of the cottage was missing.

Lake James Getaway
Wow!! We loved staying at Mike’s place. The views of the lake, boats and seaplanes were amazing as we sat outside on the deck! The cottage has a beautiful flat front yard and very little steps which was perfect for my older parents to join us. We rented a pontoon for the week and had our own dock. Being so close to Tom’s doughnuts, Club P and The Corner Lansing makes this place that much more special! I’m definitely coming back!

A Very Relaxing Place!
I was looking for a waterfront relaxing place for myself and 2 roommates from over 40 years ago to get together! This place was perfect! 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and the most enjoyable front room and outdoor patio. It was very clean and cozy and the owners MIke and Linda were so accommodating and friendly. They recommended two very nice Restaurants we hadn't heard about... The Village Kitchen and The Hatchery, both in Angola! They were excellent. There were also many great eating places walking distance from the cottage. We look forward to returning next year!

Vacation Week
The house was clean. The pots 'n pans were greasy and nasty. The beds were just ok. The screens need to fit the windows. We had an awful time with bugs in the evening! The setting was what we had hoped it would be. Peaceful, nice neighbors, easy access to all three lakes.

3rd stay and as always, a thumbs up!
We love our yearly week stay and as always booked for the next year already. Mike is always extremely responsive to any questions or issues that pop up. We love renting this house as it suits our needs for limited stairs, close to aging parents ( Fort Wayne), beautiful beach, clean lake, friendly neighbors, great rental owners, close to amenities and such a relaxed vibe!!

Great location!
We enjoyed the large yard and the sandy beach. The location to food and shops is within walking distance. We didn’t need to use our car the entire time we were there. The cottage is very open but dated. It could use some serious updates but love that it is a true cottage. We will be back next year! Thank you!

Great Family Vacation
We really enjoyed coming to this lake cottage for the week - it reminded my parents and I of the lake cottage we had growing up. The beach was 10/10, sandy and easy to wade into the water and play. The location was great as well, easy walk to restaurants and get donuts in the morning. The owner was quick to get a hold of with any questions leading up to the week and was available during our time there if we needed anything. We could come back again!
