1) This is a cottage, not a five-star hotel. We use a professional cleaning service, and maintain the house in good condition, but parts of it may still feel rustic to some guests. 2) This is a part-time rental, not a full-time Airbnb. Please understand that there will be owner items in the closets, cupboards, and fridge. 3) Please see our house rules about parties and occupancy limits. 4) Propane is provided, but firewood is not. But you can buy it at most gas stations, grocery stores, and hardware stores in the area.
Private Boat Pier from May to September (All Piers removed in late October for offseason in the MidWest. Max length of boat not to exceed 27`. Pier Access fee may apply. Renters responsible to properly tie up and protect their boats with fenders.)

We had a pipe burst in our home and had to be out of the house for almost 3 weeks with our 4 dogs. The Sheridan house was accommodating for our puppies and it worked out fantastic.
Great spot with plenty of sleeping space, right on the water

Great location on Beautiful Lake
Lake house with a split bedroom layout perfect for friends or extended family. Gorgeous view from living area and ample outdoor space. Roomy kitchen for food prep and adjacent space for dining. Newer bathrooms and amply furnished bedrooms. Multiple outdoor spaces which are usable but not recently updated.
Great location and home! Very quiet neighbors. Easy to communicate with the property manager. No real issues or questions arose, one of the better homes we have stayed in over the years. We only wished there were more and softer furnishings in the dining/great room area. People congregated most here and would be nice to have a few more comfortable options for lounging or sitting other than the table and chairs. Great outdoor spaces and plenty of yard space for activities. A few yard games provided would be nice since it was rather cold and windy for swimming or fires the days we were here. We would love to come back to this home if the opportunity presented itself.
We had a lovely stay at this lakefront home! The highlight was definitely the beautiful lake—it offered peaceful views and a relaxing atmosphere throughout our trip. The sunroom, with its large windows overlooking the water, quickly became our favorite spot to unwind. The kitchen was impressively spacious and well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals and gather as a group. The bedrooms were a comfortable size, and the bathrooms have clearly been recently renovated—they were clean, modern, and very functional.Another pleasant surprise was the friendly neighbor to the right, who greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome in the area.One thing to note: outside of enjoying the lake, there isn’t a whole lot to do nearby unless you're up for a bit of a drive. Vegetarian dining options are also pretty limited in the immediate area. On cooler days, we drove out to the Volo Museum and Gurnee Mills mall, both of which were fun outings.Overall, if you're looking for a peaceful lake getaway with great amenities and don’t mind a bit of driving for activities or dining variety, this is a wonderful place to stay.
