House Rules This Vacasa Guestworks vacation rental is operated and managed locally by an independent host. Prior to your arrival, you will receive local host contact information, who will manage your guest reservation. Your local host will provide in-stay support, secure entry, and arrange pre- and post-stay housekeeping services. The two parking spots available for the boathouse are side by side so vehicles pulling boat trailers will need to disconnect the trailer and place it in one parking spot and the vehicle in the parking spot alongside it. The parking and dock pier will accommodate a boat no longer than 20 feet. If you need anything during your stay, the home’s independent local host is ready to help 24/7! Guestworks is a service offering of Vacasa that allows homeowners to smoothly and efficiently manage their own properties. Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles. Dock details: Tie up a boat at the brand-new dock that can fit up to a 20-foot boat. Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book.

Great location, very serene. Off the dock caught some largemouths the size of armadillos. The water sparkled like that neon blue Slurpie flavor 7-Eleven used to sell in the 1990s around Memphis, TN. The air was a perfume of suntan lotion and the cry of killdeer and burbling trolling motors. Great place to stay. I was overall happy as a seagull with a French Fry. ##### Sean and Denise L.

Jul 28, 2024 #### The Boat House on Lake Wawasee We really enjoyed our week-long stay at the Boat House. This is a new, updated (immaculately clean) home located on a channel on Lake Wawasee. The location is quiet and the other properties surrounding it are well maintained. The kitchen is well stocked (new appliances, cabinets, and countertops), decor has a “lake life” vibe, bathroom is spacious annd updated, and both queen beds were comfy with nice bedding. Mike (host) is super nice and really goes out of his way to make sure his guests have everything they need. Our family has stayed in 5-6 different rentals (all which were nice) on Lake Wawasee over the past four years- and our two teenage daughters felt this one was by far their favorite. ##### Susan M. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Inn-Suites.h17932.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Big Splash Adventure Indoor Water Park & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/French-Lick-Hotels-Big-Splash-Adventure-Indoor-Water-Park-Resort.h4857069.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Jasper by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Jasper.h1802413.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Chip Casino Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Michigan-City-Hotels-Blue-Chip-Casino-Hotel-And-Spa.h2991209.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Clarion Pointe](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Jasper.h24170.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Anderson Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Muncie-Hotels-Anderson-Inn.h996273.Hotel-Information) > > [Belterra Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Madison-Hotels-Belterra-Casino-Resort.h1152807.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Jasper](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Jasper.h9970.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information)
