About this property

Entire place

Full House on the Lake with Free kayaks, paddleboats and a fishing boat.

Very quiet and scenic 1500 square foot 3 bedroom cottage just 5 minutes from Angola and 35 minutes from Ft. Wayne. You'll have the entire furnished cottage to yourselves! No need to bring anything except food. Take advantage of the free use of 2 kayaks a paddleboat and a fishing boat complete with life preservers. There are two charcoal grills for your convenience. Explore Long Lake and maybe throw out one of the several fishing poles that are provided! In the evening sit back and take in the stars around the campfire or enjoy our 300 ft deck. We are on Long Lake in Pleasant Lake.

**Girl's Weekend - SUCCESS!!**

Robin and Charley were wonderful to work with and we were able to easily access the property. It is a cozy little lake cabin that feels like family. There is so much more room than it looks like in the pictures!! And the treats that were left for us was even more of a bonus! We slept like babies and awake to a cool crisp morning with coffee on the deck. It was a terrific time and we may have to plan another girls weekend here!

Overall, we found the house comfortable and generous with welcoming gifts (s'more fixings and popcorn, for example). Neither of us noticed that there would be no dishwasher, so only one of us could do dishes because of mobility issues. I'd also recommend telling people that they might want to bring their own drinking water if they are put off by mineral tasting water.

Women’s Weekend Getaway

The house on the lake was the perfect place for four friends to spend a weekend getaway. Everything was easy- location, getting to, and checking in and out. The Hansons are great hosts and were easy to message with and answered any questions we had about our stay. While the weather did not cooperate we still had a wonderful time hiking and photographing nature at the nearby Wing Haven Preserve and dining out in Angola. Everything was clean and perfect, lots of great space, and being dog-friendly was the icing on the cake. We will definitely be back! -Michelle & Company

What a great getaway. Right on the water, plenty of room, lots of water “toys” (boats/kayaks). Owner was great to work with and provided more than the basics. Even had some dog treats and beds. Well worth the price!

Great location, good fishing. The owners thought of lots of little details like having ingredients for smores ready to go, coffee, and popcorn. Our sons loved the paddle boat the most. Great value.

Very clean and roomy. It was too windy to take the boat out, but the fishing was excellent right off shore, immediately behind the house. Had a great time.

Family weekend

Family converged from 3 different directions to spend a weekend of re-connecting here! So many different things to do together. Kayaking, pedal-boating, bonfires, yard games, etc! Everyone of all ages loved our time there! Hosts were extremely responsive to all questions before we came and while we were there!
