Relaxing 8 acres, Large Family Getaway plus Giant Pool, Hot tub, Sports Complex

Hot tub will remain open all year round. Added a brand new two person infrared indoor sauna as well.

Backyard seclusion overlooking a heated pool and apple and peach orchard. We keep the pool about 86 degrees until around Thanksgiving time then we shut it down and reopen in early Mid-Late April.

The batting cage and baseball diamond are a treat along with a rock climbing wall, indoor half-basketball court, movie theater, outdoor basketball hoop, kids playground, swimming in the heated pool or lounging in the hot tub - both salt water systems so less chemicals.

Dining room table seats 10-12 and there are comfy couches in the living/dining/kitchen areas to chat. The most comfiest couch ever that holds over 14 people on it with an oversized 90 inch flatscreen TV with surround sound. This couch also doubles as a bed that will sleep 2 adults and/or 4 children very comfortably.

Or venture into the finished heated pole barn that houses a gigantic 40 foot movie screen with surround sound. Play on the rock climbing wall. Or let your kids play various large and small toys like an indoor jungle gym.

Short drive to Pine Lake, and Stone Lake Public Beach just under 2 miles away. You can rent pontoon boats for Pine Like, hit up the beaches while you are there, or enjoy the various hiking trails. Our kids love to catch frogs on the property and go hiking/fishing/swimming at Stone Lake.

Newly remodeled bathrooms throughout the house as well as 80% of house has been newly renovated. Safe. Super Clean. And you won't see any neighbors - it's a private space. NO PETS ALLOWED INSIDE THE HOUSE/GARAGE/POLE BARN. Pets are only allowed if they are kept outside.

Fire table on upstairs patio and another wood fire pit on property. * Propane tanks are supplied, however you may need to refill at gas station if needed for the fire pit(s) or the Blackstone 36 inch Griddle.

Every bit as much fun as expected
The pictures make this place look amazing - and it surpasses the expectation! The heated pool is great for everyone, the indoor playspace is awesome for the kids, TONS of room indoor and out. The hosts were also fantastic, quick to respond to questions, made sure we knew what we needed to and really just went out of the way so we were comfortable. Can't recommend this place enough.

Jason’s property was everything my friends and I were looking for! The backyard pool, open grass, and barn areas were all better than advertised in the pictures. Jason was very easy to communicate with and very helpful. I would recommend this space to anyone!

The Perfect Getaway Place
Our extended family of fourteen, ranging in ages from 5 to 77, loved this place. We spent most of our time in the HUGE warm pool, in the pole barn and the extensive yard. The home was beautiful with lots of supplies left for us. It was the perfect set up for making family memories we'll never forget! The host was very responsive to any questions and super helpful! THANK YOU!

Memorial day weekend last minute trip.
Such a beautiful home and property. The pool was the perfect temperature for my 6 month old granddaughter to have her first swimming experience and the waterslide was pretty cool. The adults loved the jacuzzi in the evening and the fire table (be sure to read the instructions). My sister loved the sauna. I now NEED a bidet in my life. The blackstone grill was really nice for outdoor cooking. Surprisingly the game table in the living room was quite a hit. We played trivial pursuit, battleship, and cards. I even caught my grown kids playing Chutes and Ladders. I loved morning coffee on the deck watching cardinals, blue jays and deer with the smell of lilacs wafting in the breeze. The pole barn is really cool, the guys played some basketball and watched a movie on the projector screen. My family had a wonderful time. Thank you. We would live to come back.

Labor Day Family Fun
We had a great time. The heated pool and slide kept both kids and adults busy for hours. Rock wall was great as was the batting cage. Only disappointment were the 5 empty propane tanks. For the price it would have been nice if we could use the black stone for burgers. There were no instructions at the property for anything. Not even a contact to reach the owner.

Indiana house-great pool, hot tub, and basement features
We really enjoyed our stay at the house. The pictures online are exactly what you get at the home, which sometimes doesn't always apply. The pool was a HUGE hit with all the kids ranging from 12-15 and the parents as well. We didn't realize that the slide was a water slide which was an added bonus (you turn on or off the water for the slide which was nice). The hot tub worked GREAT and was also a big hit. The property is located sooo close to Pine Lake, so we were able to rent a pontoon boat for the afternoon and then headed back home for more pool time. The pole barn was great for basketball as all the kids loved playing indoor bball when the weather wasn't the best. The basement was the teens favorite hangout for movies and chilling-great space. The only downside was access to the pole barn was hindered by wasp nests/wasps as well as under the deck. We alerted the owners and they said they'd take care of it-so hopefully the next family that visits won't have that issue. It didn't keep the kids from trying to get into the pole barn. They have a golf cart you can use to roam around the property which is an added feature. We would definitely return to this location as we wished we could have explored Pine Lake more with more time.
