The Sanctuary on Golden Lake is where multigenerational families make memories that last.

A private, wide sandy beach with shallow water keeps grandkids happily occupied for hours. Adults get the massive lighted Trex deck, large screened porch, and free firewood fire pit for coffee at sunrise, grilling at sunset, and quiet evenings under the stars. Four spacious bedrooms (smart layout with main-floor rooms perfect for families with kids and an upstairs suite with a huge jacuzzi for the adults), two living areas, a fully stocked kitchen, and lake toys (kayaks, canoe, SUP boards, paddleboat) mean everyone has what they need without the usual vacation scramble.

No rocky shoreline and a calm no-wake lake make swimming, floating, and peaceful paddling easy and safe. Pokagon State Park, affordable local golf, Shipshewana, and Trine University are all nearby. Guests consistently say the house is even lovelier and more comfortable than the photos.

Perfect for grandparents hosting the whole crew, three couples, or a quiet friends’ weekend. All seasons shine here — beach days in summer, firepit evenings in fall, cozy retreats in winter. No pets, no parties, max 8. Come once, and you’ll already be planning the next visit.

ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES

The property has steps throughout, and the concrete and yard are uneven. The property is not especially accessible.

THE SPACE

Main floor: open living and dining spaces, two eating areas, a popular puzzle table, one King bedroom, one bedroom with two twin beds, and a full bath/shower — ideal for the family with kids so the little ones (and their parents) are close to everything.

Upstairs: oversized King master with walk-in closet and a large Queen bedroom, separated by a massive bathroom featuring the big jacuzzi tub that adults love. Both upstairs bedrooms open onto a second living area with couches and a smart TV (streaming or device connectivity). This level becomes the peaceful adult retreat.

Outside on the double lot: a large private yard, the massive lighted Trex deck, a big, screened porch (morning coffee heaven), and a firepit area with free firewood. The wide private sandy beach has shallow water that kids adore, and the calm no-wake lake and the Pigeon Creek system are perfect for the provided kayaks, canoe, and SUP boards.

The home is thoughtfully stocked so you don’t have to pack half your house. Fast Wi-Fi, central heat and air, and attentive hosts. Quiet hours 10 pm–8 am. Maximum 8 guests. Keycode arrives 24 hours before check-in. The entire property is yours except the upstairs garage.
