The Lake House, a contemporary getaway cottage located in Hoosier National Forest, is situated on a secluded bluff overlooking the protected watershed of beautiful Lake Monroe. The cottage has three separate decks, all with great views of the lake and abundant opportunities to spot eagle nesting grounds, herons and waterfowl (www.eaglesatlakemonroe.com). A short hike down to the lake offers paddle boating opportunities (2 provided) and splendid kayaking venues (bring your own). Hike the four wooded acres that surround the cottage or take a leisurely stroll in either direction along the lake or on the picturesque country gravel road. Bring your gear for fishing along the bank or from the paddle boats (Indiana fishing license required).
The Lake House has a main floor with family room and complete kitchen separated from a living room, full bed futon bedroom, half bath and two viewing decks, one covered. The cozy upstairs loft offers a king size bed, full bathroom with shower, reading nook with futon and its own private balcony. Watch a beautiful Brown County sunset and relax to the sound of silence. Or enjoy one of the many board games provided or your favorite Satellite TV stations and DVDs in the living room or comfort of the loft bedroom.
The Lake House is centrally located. It is just 13 miles from Bloomington (www.visitbloomington.com) Indiana's most vibrant arts, culture and dining community as well as Indiana University one of America's leading public universities (www.iub.edu). Nestled in the hills of Brown County, the cottage is just a short 15 mile drive to Nashville (http://www.browncounty.com) with its quaint shops and restaurants, The Little Nashville Opry (www.thelittlenashvilleopry.com), and the Brown County Playhouse (www.indiana.edu/~thtr/facilities/bc/index.html). You can even launch your power boat at the Crooked Creek Boat Ramp located just 5 miles away and moor it in front of the cottage. (Pull through parking at The Lake House makes trailering your boat a breeze). Or visit the T.C. Steele State Historic Site (http://www.tcsteele.org/site.asp), studio of the famous 19th century impressionist painter, or the many artist studios of the famous Brown County Art Colony.
The Lake House is a short 10 miles from Brown County State Park (www.browncountystatepark.com) Indiana's largest with playgrounds, swimming pools, tennis courts, hiking and mountain bike trails. Even closer, nearby Yellowwood State Forest (www.browncountystatepark.com/yellowwood/forest.html ) offers back country hiking, picnicking and canoeing. Horseback riding is available at nearby Schooner Valley Stables (schoonervalleystables.homestead.com ) as well as Brown County State Park. You can even enjoy country/western dancing at Mike's Music & Dance Barn ( www.thedancebarn.com ).
The Lake House is your place to relax and reconnect with nature. You won't be disappointed.
The Lake house is next to Soaring Eagle and makes a GREAT duo for a mid size group. Both properties are 100% private from each other, yet within easy walking distance
SPECIAL NOTE: The Lake House is located on a well maintained gravel road and has easy in and out access. Premier, however, is not responsible, nor will it issue refunds for road conditions due to weather.
