The Pannings are gracious hosts, making sure that all our needs were met! The Little Otter Retreat is very clean and comfortable! Kay and I had a wonderfully relaxing time!
What a lovely home, looks exactly like the pictures. Everything very clean and well appointed. Communication excellent. Nice and quiet. Beautiful view. Will look forward to returning!
The cabin has new features, clean, and extremely close to the water, which we loved. Having lake access and using their row boat and kayaks were a blast. The lake is small but has great charm and is connected to 5 different lakes. We loved visiting the Pokagon State Park and walking to the beach and hiking trails. Tom's Donuts was a pleasant stop for a quick snack. Dave and Tammy were outstanding hosts and extremely friendly and accommodating. Thank you for an amazing stay!
Went for work and somehow still felt like a vacation!
I booked this for a work trip, and somehow it still felt like a vacation reset when I left! The cabin is lovely, cozy, and so clean. The hosts were wonderful! We saw otters, caught baby turtles, rowed the boat and took in the views. Thank you for a wonderful trip, Little Otter Retreat!
My husband and I wanted a cabin near Pokagon State Park. This cottage was perfect for us; one bedroom, very clean, close to the park (rode our bikes there) and nice view of a lake. The hosts were friendly and very accommodating. We enjoyed our time hiking and biking and recommend staying at this place.
Words canât describe the relaxing experience, the home the view is fantastically beautiful and peaceful tranquility. The hosts are extremely friendly and welcoming. We were celebrating our anniversary and couldnât have picked a better place.
If I could give more than 5 stars to the property and management I would! In many ways this place was the nicest VRBO I have stayed at by far and the property management was exceptional. I will be staying here next time I am in town.
The hosts were so friendly and gracious! The house was absolutely spotless! Perfect location. Beautiful architecture and decor! Couldnât have been any better!
We booked this for a 3 night birthday getaway and to explore this lake area. The State Park is really nice, Satek winery & Tomâs donuts are nice to visit. Little Otter Retreat is really nice and has everything to make it feel like home. We loved relaxing on the deck with a glass of wine.
We love our little Lake Cottage. We are both teachers at local schools here in Indiana and love time away at the lake. We have been on the Lake James Chain through relatives for over 35 years. However the Little Otter Retreat is a place we can call our own.
This property offers everything you would want in a cottage. From the quiet shores of Little Otter Lake to the fun and excitement of Lake James, this 60 foot of lake frontage property has it all. We love the beach which is great for swimming, and fishing off the dock. Inside is neat, open, and inviting with great views of the lake along with an amazing deck with awning. Everything is new, clean and modern.
Little Otter is a great fishing lake and is accessible to five additional lakes. It is also one mile away from the entrance to Pokagon State Park. The cottage was built in 2020 with a new appliances and a modern feel. It is cozy, comfortable, and a perfect get-a-way home for two.
