Great value, super cute, close to the lake
Made use of all the beds- including the pullout couch. Nice space, open and clean. Only 10 minutes to town, about 1 mile to east shore and the lake. Great location to bike around the lake. Helpful and communicative.

Perfect spot for alumni weekend
We loved our stay in the converted barn. It is a meticulously converted space with countless small, well thought out touches. It was perfect for our family during alumni weekend. The hosts were gracious and wonderful. The location was fantastic! As the cherry on top, our 4 yo loved the boat bed! We will absolutely return in the future.

Country gem
Everyone fell in love with the rural setting so close to Lake Max, which is truly a unique area. We rented both spaces and the layout gave us space to relax while the little ones fell in love with Dora the donkey and her sheep. The Loft was very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen is awesome and we had great meals around the giant island. Would definitely rent again when in the area.

Great location for Culver/Lake Max
We stayed in the Barn and it was great. Very unique place that met all of our needs during trip. It's only 2 miles from Culver Academies, so it is a great location for Alumni/Parent's weekends.

Beautiful family getaway
Beautiful property and cute town with great beach for kids. Easy, relaxing stay and clean space. Studio is very bright so eye masks or portable blackout curtains would be helpful for light sleepers to bring along.

Darling Lake Max Retreat
This cute Barndominium was perfect for dropping off our daughter to start her journey at Culver. The lake theme was fun, and overall a very comfortable stay. Highly recommend!
