The Potter Cottage - A great family getaway 3 miles from Holiday World

The Potter Cottage is a 1600 square foot home that was completely renovated in 2019 and sits on 4.6 acres. Stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, and a tile shower are just a few of the amazing features of this home! A 50 inch television in the family room and three additional 40 inch television in the all three bedrooms add to the amenities. The home has three bedrooms, two full baths and an additional shower in the basement, the basement also has two sets of bunk beds and queen murphy bed to accommodate the entire family! A tankless water heater adds to the amenities (never run out of hot water)! It offers beautiful views overlooking the lake. Enjoy fishing and the beautiful views! The home has two decks to enjoy the rustic feel of this property.
Serene sunsets can be viewed from the decks. The large shade trees are perfect for picnics. The home is suitable for single families or groups. A two car garage has been converted into a recreational room with a ping pong table, pool table, poker table, and TV.

My friends and I went to Holiday World for my 30th birthday and had a wonderful stay at the Potter Cottage! It was a great house to relax before and after visiting the amusement park. We had lovely meals in the big shared spaces, relaxing chats on the porch and deck, and slept like rocks in the comfy bedrooms. We'd definitely come back for another stay :)

Wonderful location

This is our second year to stay at this house. We love the location. Great grandchildren spend every day in the water park and rides. Because of my arthritis, I take my sewing machine to sew on my quilts.

Wonderful property!

We have stayed here several years and the property never disappoints. Close by to Holiday World. We like coming back to a nice, clean place to stay. Everyone can shower and relax at the end of the day. We don't have to be all crowded together. Plenty of space. The kids loved seeing all the frogs and we saw a couple of turtles in the pond too! The host is quick to respond and very helpful/accommodating. Thanks for creating so many memories for our family. We will be back next year!
