About this property

Gorgeous Waterfront Home on Crooked Lake w/Hot Tub, AC, Dock, Swim on 2nd Basin

Enjoy a beautiful lake vacation in a modern home with all the amenities on beautiful all-sports Crooked Lake - second basin (best kept secret in the midwest!) Bring your own (or rent) a boat, jet ski, kayak and enjoy sunny days on the lake and perfect nights in the hot tub on the deck and around the firepit roasting marshmallows. Shallow solid bottom swimming area is steps away from the deck where you can grill out on top notch grill directly connected to gas. Fall asleep in dreamy beds with luxury linens and then wake up and head down to the famous Tom’s Donuts before doing it all over again. Hike, bike, ride horses in nearby Pokagen State Park… or just relax and enjoy the beautiful views over Crooked Lake. Backlot with plenty of parking available. Also enjoy our garage game room with full size Golden Tee and Buckhubter, bar tv and, gaming consoles, and much more

Great trip!

The property is beautiful and they provided everything you need. The lake is shallow enough for the kids to play which was awesome- they also had a great game room for when weather didn’t cooperate! We had a wonderful stay there. Thank you!

Great place for family time.

Plenty of space for 8 adults(from 21 to 85 years old). Time to relax, float on the lake and great swim area. Large grill that was very clean! Huge under counter ice maker is very convenient. We plan to book again !

Perfect family vacation

We had a great mini vacation! Everything was clean and accurate just like the description. The spacious kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and the outdoor dining area fit everyone around the table. (The gas grill was perfect!) This property is very quiet (no traffic noise) and the neighbors were very kind. This property provides parking across the street for multiple vehicles, boat trailer, trucks etc. Overall, great memories were made and we would highly recommend this lake house for hosting a family vacation!

Vacation 2022

We had a great family vacation at Crooked Lake in this gorgeous home. Lots of upscale amenities and the property manager was very quick to respond to our questions. The house is just steps from the water on the 2nd basin and the water trampoline and lily pad were favorites of the children. Would definitely consider staying here again next year!!

Beautiful home on Crooked Lake!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! We spent the week in the water, on the deck and enjoying the sunset views! The neighbors are really close… but are very kind. Our boat broke down and one of them towed us to the boat launch as well as offered to take our youngest kneeboarding the day after. We thought for the price, all the amenities (esp the hot tub), comfortable beds, stylish decor and plenty of dishes, beach towels etc. made it worth it, however they did not provide shower soaps or extra toilet paper for the bathrooms. The host did take longer than normal to respond at times and no check-in or check-out instructions came to my inbox until I asked. Overall, we enjoyed our week and made lots of great memories!

Ideal Lake Property

We had a wonderful week at the lake cottage! It's a beautiful lake home. It is spacious and comfortable. There is a beautiful view of the lake from the main living room. Children can play in the water right off the cabin. We boated in our pontoon, enjoyed the nearby beach and playground, and enjoyed watch the kids swimming and playing outside. All bedrooms have TV's and with internet streaming services. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Great Stay

This was a great place to stay and we will book again! We had 5 kids (12-18) and 4 adults. This house had it all: beach/bathroom and kitchen towels, ice machine, filtered water, wonderful washer and dryer, and any kitchen appliance you’d want. The showers had great water pressure. The family room was large enough for all nine of us to watch a movie one night. All the TVs are smart and the WIFI was strong. The owner was easy to work with and responded quickly to all questions. We could tie the boat up at the house and it’s easy to just walk out and float! It’s perfect!

Owner doesn’t acknowledge VRBO’s policies

Stay was great until the owner contacted me asking about my service animal after our stay. The owner refuses to follow VRBO policy on service animals and has now charged me extra fees post stay claiming damage… when asked about the “damage” she is talking about, she sent a picture of brown grass spots where my service animal urinated. According to VRBO policy, this is not considered damage. The policy also states that she can ask if the animal is a service animal, she did not, I offered that info and she said that her VRBO doesn’t allow service animals. She has yet to supply any sort of proper justification “above and beyond reasonable usage” caused by my service animal to justify an extra charge. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

Incredible Stay

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful home on Crooked Lake. It's better than any cottage we've stayed at on any of the lakes in the areas. It's modern and chic yet very family friendly. We will be back for sure.

Weekend Away

Great location and beautiful home. Ideal for our two families who were in town for Trine Graduation and preferred more that a standard hotel room to spend time with good friends. Very quick response from owner when question came up while we where there. Very clean and well stocked with everything you need. Would definitely stay here again.
