About this property

Frankie’s Waterfront House at Indian Lake! The nicest VRBO on the lake!

Be our guest at the sister house of Phoebe’s lakefront home. This wonderful place was recently, fully renovated by a prominent Columbus architect. No expense or detail was spared. Open first-floor layout with gorgeous views of open water. Enjoy our outside screened-in patio with a couch, table, and chairs. Outside enjoy a gas grill with propane overlooking the water. We try to maintain full propane but in the event it’s empty, there is a refill station at Lakeview Hardware. (10 minutes away) Send us the receipt for full reimbursement. You will not find a nicer home or a better view of the lake. Come see for yourself! You can also stay at Phoebes Lakefront house 8 minutes away and also lakefront!

Rent a boat and hook up to our sea wall with dock cleats. Bumpers for your boat are required.

-Limit three small cars or two larger cars at this property. If this rule is broken you can be asked to leave due to upsetting our neighbor's space. They will let us know. Ask about options for additional cars.

-If boating, the no-wake zone is 100 yards from our seawall. Please respect this rule as if it's broken it affects all our neighbors and you can be asked to leave. They will let us know! We also have a shared dock with a sister property next door. Please be courteous with our neighbors:)

-Our neighbor’s peace is of utmost importance to us and this will be appreciated by them and us. Please be respectful and treat them like you would your own neighbors.

House was amazing, fishing was great, loved the screened porch; wish we could have used it more but that was the weather 's fault. The owner was very quick to answer questions and very helpful. Hope to come back again soon

Thanksgiving Gather

Very nice house. Beautiful view of lake. I was however a little disappointed with a few things. The fireplace did not work, no shampoo, dish soap, or paper towel provided as indicated. We thought the house could have been cleaner overall and the parking was very difficult to get in and out.

Fabulous house, spectacular sunsets!

The property was excellently appointed, everything is modern and updated! The house has a great flair and style, with well thought-out lighting and decor. This house has everything you need appliance-wise to make your stay comfortable, with a great kitchen if you want to cook, lots of restaurants/diners if you don't, and the screened in porch is very nice and comfortable! Lake view is amazing! Had a great time!
