Welcome to your dream lake vacation experience. Overlooking 800 acre Mill Creek Lake, this one-of-a kind contemporary lake retreat boasts a two-slip boat dock, jet ski lift, and Tiki Bar. That's right a TIKI BAR on the water. Bring your boat, jet ski, bike, and fishing and hunting gear, or just pack a bag and prepare for complete relaxation. The 1600 sq.ft. open living room/kitchen provides space for gathering around the large granite island, sharing a meal at the 10-person dining table, and enjoying the lake views year round. In this Midwest paradise your group will enjoy a master bedroom with marble en-suite on the main floor and two large bedrooms plus full bath in the walkout basement. The kid oriented basement includes complete toy room, tree with a tree swing, fort, rock wall, reading nook and twisty slide. An upstairs loft provides additional sleeping quarters with gorgeous views of the lake and surrounding woods. There is an office space with high speed internet in the loft. Outdoor living space includes wrap-around deck with dining table and two separate lounge areas, a large yard, charcoal grill, and a Hot Springs hot tub sunken in the deck off of the master bedroom. From a monthly stay to a three-day weekend, this will be your group’s new happy place.

Family Birthday

We had a fantastic time at A Luxury Family Mill Creek Lake Retreat. There isn't a single thing I can really complain about. The property is stunning, well stocked and maintained, and straightforward to get to. Ample seating for dining, playing board games, and relaxing by the fire. We'd gladly stay again with our extended family.

Would Stay Again

Amazing house and dock. Boat lift was a nice addition. Golf carts are worth the extra money to get to and from the dock. Hot tub was nice. Quick responses when I needed to reach out to host.

Mill Creek Luxury Lake House

We have stayed on Mill Creek a number of times. We do not come on weekends. The beauty of the lake and privacy of Sunday night through Friday will exceed your expectations. The house, the dock, the children’s playground and the landscaped grounds provided a lovely memorable experience. Thank you TJ.

The pictures of this property do not do it justice, the home is lovely and perfect for a family getaway. We have small children and the basement kept them more than entertained. The property manager was extremely helpful! One of the best VRBO experiences we’ve had!

Had a great time!

We were really the first ones to stay for the summer season. The house was wonderful! The dock was a beautiful place to hang out. Since we were the first ones the tiki hut wasn't really ready to go quite yet but TJ called Bryan his handy man and he got right on it! Everything was wonderful and we had a great time.

Excellent place for a family get away

Overall excellent location, home, etc. Would recommend to any family trying to get away for a long weekend. Only critic of the property was a few areas of cleanliness. The ice maker was a bit dirty as was the fridge down stairs. Other than that, great spot and excellent host.

Beautiful Family Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at this Mill Creek home. The home is beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable. The child-friendly basement was perfect for our two grandchildren (ages 2 & 3). The location is beautiful and quiet. TJ was quick to respond and meet all of our needs. We wish we had been there long enough to take advantage of all the property had to offer. We would definitely recommend this beautiful home.

Beautiful Lake Home

The home was spacious, updated, private. Nice size bedrooms, large bathrooms, huge gathering areas. We loved the lake the most- pristine water, privacy, fun spaces to entertain or just lounge by the water. My friends all gave me 5 stars for finding this place. One of the best we've stayed at over the past 5+ years. Owner was great too- very accommodating, responsive. Took a fun visit to nearby Casey, IL (about 15-20 Mins) and saw all the BIG things they have in town. Thank you for a nice vacation!!

Amazing Home

Our 3-generation family had a great stay! The home and the lakefront area are beautiful and exactly as described. Very clean! We especially appreciated the golf cart to go back and forth to the lake. Communication with the owner was excellent. We have rented on VRBO for over 15 years - this was our favorite!! Highly recommend. Vicki T.
