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.

This house definitely comes with a love for family and the environment. Little notes from the owner and signs - the "hippie" ones are my favorite - to enjoy your stay whilst also giving nod to Mother Earth.The house is super clean and your backyard is the lake which is amazing. The house is not modern, the linens are fresh and clean but remnants of "another time" and so is all the decor... So if you're looking for upgraded this, and fancy that, this is not your place. The photos are exactly what you can expect so look closely. If you're looking for a cozy spot - amazing views and lake front, you'll love it. We kayaked, fished off the dock, swam in the lake... it was great. "Town" is about 15-20 min away - easy drive to/from. A/C worked great! Plenty of space for sleeping, resting, game room, dining room table, etc. And not a single bug was inside the house. AND DON'T BE SCARED OR SWIPE THE SPIDER WEBS OUTSIDE. They are natures miracle and as scary as they might look - they are wonderous at capturing allllllllll the night critters that fly at night (mosquitos, gnats, etc.)

Looking for a bachelor party / house for an away football game. This place was perfect. Didn’t realize there was a bar within walking distance which made it all the more awesome! Ping pong table was a perfect addition too!

Lake Lemon Stay

Great location and home. No hot tub as listed, not cleaned well, ceiling in kitchen leaked water when it rained. I cleaned everything I touched basically but this house would still be amazing for a low key summer break stay with friends to enjoy the lake.

Great location but bad management

This property has a ton of potential but no care is taken for guests. The house was dated and we knew this from reading reviews but the cleanliness was horrible. Shame on us because there was some mentioning this but , wow . The normal bugs in a lake house is exceptable but when we saw roaches this was our breaking point of dealing with this rental. We are a family of six and can tolerate a lot but this was the first time ever that our whole family was happy to go home from a vacation , kids actually wanted to leave early. We dealt with it because we really didn’t have a choice. This was one of the most disappointing vacations we have taken. Also reviews are not my thing and neither is complaining but I just couldn’t let this go. Do not spend your hard earned money here. Maybe spend a few bucks more , I wish I did!

Charming Lakeside Retreat

My wife and I rented this home while she was in Bloomington for some CE. It’s a great little spot on the lake with a large backyard and tons of quirky charm. It can be a little tricky to find which only adds to the sense of getting away.

Great lake house

We came down to this property for a little girls weekend. It was amazing! We got to ride in The Kayaks and take our dogs down to the lake to swim. It was a very comfortable home to stay in. Definitely a true lake house and a wonderful place to visit. The owner was very friendly and wonderful to work with, definitely plan on coming back year after year

Very cute “hippy” house

We enjoyed our stay at Strawberry Fields. The house is very eclectically furnished with lots of kitsch- a style I love. The property itself was nice, right on a lake in a rural area. I thought it could use a professional deep-cleaning, but other than that it was very satisfactory for our family. I would definitely stay here again.
