Idyllic Lake Cottage on Papakeechie Lake

Lovely 2-bedroom 1-bathroom cottage on beautiful Papakeechie Lake. Master bedroom has a queen size bed with a view of the water and the second bedroom has 2 bunk beds. A lovely kitchen, living room and dining room, with plenty of views of Papakeechie Lake. There is a fire pit and a nice patio area with a great dock and beach just steps from the cottage door. Papakeechie Lake is a tranquil non-motorboat lake where kayaks, paddle boats, paddle boards and sail boats are the way of life. The fishing also is great. With plenty of crappie, largemouth bass and blue gills to be caught. You can enjoy the peace and quiet of the lake or if you would like to bring a motorboat and launch it at Lake Wawasee, this cottage is just minutes from the public boat launch. The cottage is just across the road from Tri-County Fish & Wildlife Area, where there are more ponds for fishing and hunting happening. It can also be a great place to sightsee and bird watch. With so much to do or not to do you can't go wrong with staying at what we like to call the Harvest Moon.

Peace on the Lake
Harvest Moon is the perfect cottage for an unplugged weekend with your spouse. It is small, and on a non-motor lake- so if you’re looking for luxury on a party lake- this isn’t it. We enjoyed having coffee and watching fish jump and turtles swim by- it’s so quiet you can hear all types of birds, too. And there’s plenty to do in the area- great restaurants and breweries. If you’re up for fishing off the pier, kayaking and time spent around a campfire, you’ll love Harvest Moon.

A wonderful weekend getaway
The property was the perfect place to get away for a weekend of relaxation. We can't thank our host enough for allowing us to bring our 13 year old lab who loves water and swimming along. We enjoyed our trip with him and will have those memories forever.

Get away!
The house was very clean. It had everything needed to cook meals. Cute decor. If you have back or knee troubles the walk from the parking area and the steps down to the patio by the lake are hard to do. But not their fault. We did catch some fish. Wish we could have put our boat in the water. All and all we had a nice relaxing weekend.

Quiet, clean, great view inside and out
It was very cozy and very enjoyable. A great get away with peaceful setting. We found fun things to do close as well as just enjoying the lake, watching the swans and geese. The host was fantastic. Only down fall is dark in area where you park car. Thanks so much for a wonderful mini vacation!!
