Lake Front Home close to Nashville IN, Bloomington IN and Indiana University

Relive the 60's in our Strawberry Fields lake house. Nestled in the Monroe/Brown County hills on beautiful Lake Lemon. Serving families as a guest house since 2001 and was a residence since 1957 making it a very old lake house, nothing fancy! We love pets so bring your dog or cat or parrot!
Outside there is a boat dock and swimming/beach area, as well as a large yard and a panoramic view of the lake. Strawberry Fields is perfect for families and gatherings. It offers the ultimate in kid-friendly accommodations with its gently sloped access to the lake, and a large but flat backyard that is ideal for throwing Frisbee or playing croquet. There is a fire pit, a charcoal grill and plenty of chairs on the deck. Great place to watch the sunset!

This whimsical Monroe County getaway comfortably sleeps nine with a queen bed on the main floor, a queen, single bed and a trundle in the upstairs master bedroom,and a queen and single bed in the other upstairs bedroom.

It is conveniently located 11 miles from both Bloomington and Nashville. Note that after four guests there is an additional $7.50 per person charge. Check calendar for current prices, they fluctuate.
20 hours a week is spent on just this house cleaning, yard work, shoreline attention. We opened in 2001 and an average of $3000/ year has been spent on maintaining and improving property.

There is a shared dock, we might have our boat on one side and will come down to use it occasionally. The other side of the dock is available for a boat.
The outdoor pool listed is actually the LAKE! There was no way to check for lake.
We previously offered a hot tub but do not anymore,sorry.

Lovely Lake View
Absolutely loved the outdoor space - double swing on the shore, fire pit, back deck off the dining room & kitchen, gorgeous view of the lake! Indoors is very 1960s - Beatles and LOTS of memorabilia from the time. If you're an old hippie, you'll love it. If you're fancy, not so much. It's all a matter of what you like. It was just fine for four women who were born in the early 1960s and raised on farms near a small town. Love the owner, honest and down to earth, great communication, very responsive to our requests. Lots of sleeping spaces for families and welcoming to pets. Enjoyed our time there.

Great location - needs attention
The water is beautiful and the yard is nice - we wished we would have brought tents and just slept outside. The house is old and old is ok - dirty is not. While i appreciate the work the owner puts into keeping up with the property, the home needs a professional deep clean.

Girl's Trip
The lake view was outstanding. The kayaks allowed us to see the lake and sounding area better. We had a great time. We knew the place was an old farmhouse, but the house needs updating. There was a lot of stuff in the house which made it cluttered. My suggestion would be to remove most of the decorations in the living room and dining room to allow for space to congregate.

Just what we needed
We needed a place with multiple bedrooms for family weekend at IU and this home provided us with everything we needed. It was a quick 20 minute drive to campus plus we had space for our family and dog and a great view of Lake Lemon. If you are looking for something fancy, this may not be your answer, but if you need space for extra people, a pet, and enjoy lake life, this may be for you.

Little Slice of Lake Heaven
Overall property exceeded our expectations. Photos don’t do it justice as the back lawn and beach area were much more accessible and fun filled then we thought it would be! There was a boat but we had been drinking so we didn’t take it out but I didn’t see that mentioned in the description. Overall a great time.

It is what it is
This house is what it says it is. The pictures and description are not misleading. It's an old, lived in lake house. My family and i had a great time. If you are the "camping" or "outdoorsy" type this house is probably your vibe. We showed up on Friday and had no power until Sunday morning due to terrible storms in the area. The signal is...not great in the area, but when the power is on, there is wifi. There are a bunch of water toys. We loved the kayaks that we were able to take back into the channels on Lake Lemon. There was also a great foam water mat that was awesome in the lake after a long day of hiking in the nearby national parks. Despite not having power (which we were accommodated for), we had a great time. And Sura, the owner, came down and said hi and told us about the area. She handled the situation amazingly and I would definitely come back.
