A Wonderful Place to Stay

This house is always clean and well maintained. It's in a great location, whether your preference is for day trips to Shipshewana or just hanging out on the deck. Lynn and Trenia are attentive and friendly, and the most gracious hosts. Five stars all the way!

Working with the property owner was great as we were having odd check-in times. The cottage was beautiful and clean, plenty of rooms for another family. The lake was so nice, thinking about renting again this summer to make better use of it. Thank you! We will definitely be back!

Great place to completely relax, very clean, and very nicely detailed. Even had jackets in the closet for those of us that had forgotten when it gets a little cooler on the water. Beautiful view from the large windows and the new deck is beautiful! Thanks, The Harvey's

The only thing that I can think of Is to take the Ouija Board that you have nailed up on the wall, is to maybe consider taking it down cause it may offend some people!! Other than that we feel it was great!!

Oliver Lake Life is so relaxing

Large older spacious home ready for family and friends to enjoy the lake. Very peaceful area and wonderful hosts that live behind the house in a newer home. Our son rented a pontoon boat and it was fun for all. Water is shallow for quite a ways out so it is good for children. We are returning next year which will be our 5th year. Great casual living on Oliver Lake.

Great week at Lake Oliver🌞

Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable! Beautiful view of lake and the cottage had everything we needed. The deck was so nice for meals and relaxing. The home was very comfortable and well maintained with beautiful gardens. Kids were able to swim from pier….loved the games and puzzles and nice fire pit for S’mores! The lake is quiet and several sandy areas to anchor and swim. The cottage was perfect for us and hope to return.
