What our guests say

We strive to make everything perfect during their stay!

What a pleasant stay!

Our family of five had a great week at The Wawasee Boathouse! Rooms felt a little bigger than they appear in the photos. It was just a really easy house to LIVE in for a week. Good seating in living and dining room (loved the plastic dining room chairs for using when our bottoms were wet from lake fun.) Plenty of storage space in bedrooms and kitchen. All kitchen and laundry appliances worked well. Outdoor space is lovely with a nice outdoor sofa and chair on the upper patio, and chairs and hammock in the lower gazebo. Landscaping and flower pots added charm. Charcoal grill with charcoal and starters and chimney provided to us–NICE! We enjoyed the nautical decor and thoughtful touches like having small bowls or baskets for housing our small personal items, or a portable speaker that fits in the boat’s cup holders. And the boat! What a wonderful convenience, having it ready at the house and not having to retrieve one at a marina. We had a great stay!

Jill

The house is very nice and decorated so tastefully!

Chad was very responsive to any dumb question we had. We had everything that we needed. Even coffee and doggie bags! It was a HUGE bonus to bring our pet with us. Kayaks were another bonus. Sleepy owl was our favorite restaurant. So delicious and nice atmosphere. We will rent this house again. The pagoda was so relaxing to read a good book in a comfy chair surrounded by nature while it rained with our dog.
Good people in this area…
We brought a Sea doo and noticed it was taking on water and was slightly sinking. We called everyone but the only person who accepted our request was Jesse from Swain Brothers. He came to us and towed it to the public access. After helping us he mentions that he knew someone who could help get it running. Pat Higgins from Higgins Power Sports. Pat repairs it and we had it on the lake same day! 😎
Great stay and great experience even though the weather stunk!

Susan - Chambersburg, Pennsylvania

Amazing stay!

We had an amazing long weekend! The house was perfect. We also rented the boat which was great for spending time on the lake. Chad was super helpful and incredibly responsive. We would gladly rent here again!

Elizabeth - Frankfort, Illinois

Lovely!

We recently stayed at ‘The Boathouse’ and it was great! The house is in a lovely, quiet spot near Johnson’s Bay on a wide, clean channel. The home itself is comfortable and clean with a creative nautical theme throughout. We also loved getting out on the lake with the pontoon boat. Chad is a very responsive, friendly and helpful host.
We truly enjoyed our stay at Lake Wawasee!

Ellie - Clarendon Hills, Illinois

We really enjoyed our stay!

The house was exactly as described with fun nautical themes throughout. Chad was friendly, helpful and responded to any questions we had within minutes. The option to rent his pontoon and pet-friendliness were appreciated. Our family will definitely be back!
