Lake Wawasee waterfront home overlooking Johnson's Bay. New Renovations for 2024

New renovations for 2024. New flooring and paint. This home overlooks the Johnson Bay portion of Lake Wawasee perfect for water skiing and is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths and an open kitchen and living room area with a view of the bay. The master bedroom has a queen size bed. The second bedroom has a queen size bed as well. The third bedroom has two triple bunk beds. It also has a fireplace, patio, washer/dryer and an outside grill. This year-round home sleeps 10 (new 2021) and is fully furnished. The property includes ninety feet of pier available for guest boats. Walk right outside to the piers - no stairs up and down from the water. A great location for a vacation on the lake. Kayaking in the channel or a quick dip in the water is possible from our pier. Reserve your boat rentals early in the off season as they tend to run out quickly. Discount for weekly or extended stays.

Great location
Our family completely enjoyed our stay on Lake Wawasee. The house was easy to get to and located in a great location to get right out on the main lake. The home is family friendly and had everything available to meet our needs.

Not a good stay
15+ years of our YaYa sister trip and the accommodations were so much less than satisfactory. It's just business when you expect cleanliness when you open your home to others. The statement Please no shoes in the house was a joke...the carpet appeared to be spotted with dirt and an area of what appeared to be mouse feces. It was very disturbing that there were no blinds on the one portion of the living area and kitchen to the front. I did not sleep under the quilt and neither did two of my other sisters...I always travel with a sleeping bag and blanket....the other sister who folded her quilt on the bottom of her bed..discovered a disturbing stain on the underside..appeared to be old blood..perhaps something else. One evening we played our own game at the kitchen table and the lighting was very poor. I will submit, by email to the owner, some pictures of what we felt was not any businesses acceptable practice. Please feel free to contact me and any of my family to attest to our feedback. We loved the location...but felt uneasy touching anything in the home. Thought you needed some true feedback.

Great Property with water access
Extended family week the kids/spouse and grandkids. Focus was boating and water activities. The house does have some age as stated in other reviews but the property was clean and comfortable for our needs. House sets 30ft off of a protected channel with plenty of dock space for the boat. This made it extremely convenient for loading/unloading. Brian was great with his communication and knowledge of the area. There are a number of great bars/restaurants close to the property either by boat or car. We would stay again!

Dry and wet
When we checked in the well was not working so we had no water pressure, the temporary fix was to run a hose from the neighbors house to the rental house, which ended up being the case for all 5 days, water pressure remained low for the entire stay. Also arrived to find a note that stated remote for tv was lost and a new one would arrive in 2-3 days. A leak was found under the sink in the main bathroom when a large cup someone left to catch the water filled up and began to over flow, also lasted during the entire stay. There were no towels, beach or bath, as advertised. The owner promptly responded to all calls and texts, but believe he was trying to make the fixes in abstentia from a long distance.

Great location - and property manager
Brian was very helpful and communicated every step well. Appreciated his thoroughness. Property was a paddle board away from Johnson Bay. Perfect if you have a boat, paddle board and/or kayaks. Our kids were able to swim in the channel while being mindful of passing boats. Calm area compared to main lake body. And there is a loop around channel you can take via paddle board or kayak while avoiding the rocky main lake waters.
