Lake Retreat With Hot Tub
The Cozy Nest is an adorable three-bedroom, pet-friendly cottage with amazing views of a quiet, no-wake lake. There is a private, 4-person hot tub overlooking the lake. The kitchen is fully stocked and ready for your use. Fiber optic wifi will keep you connected. There are a couple of bicycles available for exploring the surrounding countryside as well as a canoe, tandem kayak, and paddle boat to venture out on the water. Shipshewana is a quick 15-mile drive away.
Cedar Lake is great for fishing or enjoying the water. It isn't good swimming off our shore. But the views are amazing!
The main bedroom has a king-sized bed plus a day bed with a trundle. The second bedroom has a queen-sized bed with a desk. The third bedroom has two twin beds.
The hot tub runs all year and accommodates four people.
We do our best to provide a full-service and friendly stay!!

Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality! My wife and I had a great stay at the Cozy Nest. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We would defiantly love to stay again.

Nice view of lake, hot tub was nice, it had plenty of room for the 3 of us. Was a nice quiet/ relaxing place to stay.
Beautiful view of the lake, clean, cute house with everything you need. Ease of communication with the hosts made us feel like we were staying at a friend’s house.

This property is wonderful, comfortable and clean. We were delighted, the host was responsive and helpful. Cannot wait to stay again when we can be on the lake.
We had a wonderful, relaxing time together while at The Cozy Nest. The sunrises over the water were absolutely beautiful! The abundance of turtles that gathered on the dock kept us entertained. If you need a relaxing getaway and a place to stay while visiting Shipshewana this is the place for you!
We were there for the rodeo and we chose this close location. The location is incredible so beautiful.Very nice hot tub outdoors but private. Would love to stay again.
Overall this is a nice place to stay. Plenty of spices for cooking available as well as mixing bowls mixers spatulas Etc. The hot tub was nice and we got to take the paddle boat on the lake. This made for a nice getaway for my granddaughter and I.
Stayed here for my daughters 17th birthday. It was perfect. The view was great, hot tub was a hit and the space was cozy. The bed in the single queen room was uncomfortable to me but it would not deter me from booking again!
The location on the lake is perfect and being pet friendly was an added bonus! The inside of the home is very cozy, lots of amenities, and the master room is very spacious! The host was extremely responsive and helpful regarding info about the property. The overall cleanliness was fair in a few areas. Our master sofa bed had a lot of dog hair left behind so if you aren't people who have shedding dogs it was a little discouraging. The fridge had several food items left behind, some of which were expired. And unfortuantely the shower isnt very inviting. The bottom half of the shower liner was covered in mold and mildew so you tried not to touch anything while using it. Would I re book and return? ABSOLUTELY! The location trumps all!
This property was as advertised. Location was so peaceful and clean. Host was a great communicator, had property ready for our check in early, and went above and beyond by having some food and water available if we needed it. So appreciated. I can’t think of one thing that wasn’t perfect for our night there! Thank you Greg!
This home has it ALL! Our trip was to Shipshewana and we chose this home based on its proximity. Also close to Michigan where we enjoyed an Italian dinner.
Greg made sure we had all the amenities including coffee, tea, and even items for S'Mores. Also provided bikes, boats, & wood for campfire.
It rained while we there, but no worries...Greg had plenty of games and TV with Internet and You Tube TV.
We will definitely be back!!
View is gorgeous of Lake. Hos
What a cute little place! Perfect for our family and dog. It looks out at the beautiful lake and comes with all sorts of extras like kayaks and bikes. We stayed in the winter so we didn't take advantage of any of the water items but we did make a campfire and s'mores (ingredients provided at house). We also chilled in the hot tub. We had the most relaxing time! The location of this property is great - a few.minutes from stores for groceries, the amish town of Shipshewana and a short drive from hiking trails. Greg was so welcoming and kindly checked in via the app to see if we needed anything. Looking forward to coming back to the cozy nest next summer!
Such a lovely place to stay with so many personal touches. Owners reached out to check in and make sure our trip was really nice! I would love to come back!
My husband and I stayed here for a much needed getaway from the kids! It was so peaceful - we didn't want to leave! We enjoyed all the amenities of the Cozy Nest, especially a sunset canoe ride around the lake and the private hot tub!
The house was decorated nicely and clean. It was perfect. Great view of the lake. The hosts were checking in the entire stay to make sure everything was good. All we had to bring was clothes and food. Everything else and more was provided. It was also the best checkout ive ever had. No cleaning or stripping beds. The checkout instructions were simple, put the watercraft and outdoor furniture back where you found it and lock the door. I will definitely rent from them again when in this area. And they are pet friendly but you wouldnt know it. Great place. Thank you
