Old friends of 70+ years (yes, that’s 70+!) had a delightful stay at TIPPY COTTAGE. It’s a beautifully sited, immaculate, spacious-yet cozy- home on the water. We enjoyed a campfire, many long discussions on the screened porch, restful sleep (very quiet), and lovely dinners at restaurants on nearby lakes, only 10 minutes away. We also met the owners who were very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend and would love to return.

If we weren't out on our boat, we spent most of our time out in the screened in porch. The home was roomy enough for 6 adults with room to spare. We liked that this home did not sit right up against neighboring homes and it had a large outdoor area and fire pit. Cindi was prompt to address any questions or concerns. We brought our boat and 2 jet skis. Lake Tippecanoe is a great water sports lake.

We absolutely loved our time at this Tippy home. Wonderful property and quiet location. Everything we wanted for our family gathering. It was perfect and our hosts were always available if we had any questions. We’ll be back!!

Great quiet location and very clean well stocked house. Perfect yard and fire pit with a dock. Pictures do not do it justice - plenty of room for 11 of us.
A few packing tips: nothing lacking inside the house - lots of towels, blankets, pillows - fully stocked kitchen. You should bring whatever outside yard toys and floats your groups wants. Yard is perfect for throwing a ball or playing bags - just bring your own!
We hope to be back!

Perfect Cottage for our family
This is the second year we have been able to rent Tippy Cottage and have booked it again for next year. It works well for our family. The nice grassy area with a large shade tree is a wonderful place to play yard games and sit and watch the activity on the lake. The hosts are very friendly and live close by.

Great Oswego Lake retreat
This cottage is just off the channel to Lake Tippecanoe--so you have the quiet view of the smaller lake and are 5 minutes away from big lake fun! The cottage is well equipped and our family had a great time. Easy parking at the pier, especially loved the fire pit and the screened in porch. Xtra table and chairs provided was so nice! Thank you so much for sharing your special lake space!

Fantastic property; even better owners!
Bob and Cindi went out of their way to make sure their property worked for my elderly father who has mobility issues. The property was great in all respects. The location on Lake Tippy was also perfect - allowed for easy access to the entire lake with our boat. We will likely be back in the Fall!

CLEAN AND ALL THE COMFORTS OF HOME
The Tippy Cottage is a great retreat! Great location with beautiful views of the lake. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you would need for cooking, if that's what you want to do. The owner met us at check-in and showed us around and how to run things. I just can't say enough about how clean and fresh this place was. The owner was quick to respond to all of my questions.

Tippy house review - Great place !
Place was great! Great location on the water with plenty of room outside and inside the house. Was impressed how cleaned the house was. Only concern was the concrete slope by the dock that was a little slippery for the kids and the muck and vegetation of the water made it difficult for the kids (and adults) to swim in the water by the dock. Strongly suggest renting a pontoon and using that to go out to the sandbar to swim.

Beautiful, clean lake house with everything you need for a great stay. Lake is nice but lots of sea weed right in front of house so unable to swim or enjoy water right off the pier. Owners were very accommodating and went above and beyond by lending us tools to help change our boat prop. Side note: beware of Tippy Ballroom boat launch. Upon launching our boat, we hit a huge rock at the end of the dock and ruined a prop.

Siblings/Spouses Honor Father
My siblings and their spouses try to plan a special celebration together to honor our parents, whom have departed us years ago. Dad would have been 101 years old and was a avid fisherman so we chose Tippy Cottage. Such fun!

Good for Families
We so enjoyed staying at the Tippy Cottage over July 4th weekend with our family. Bob and Cindi were wonderful hosts and very accommodating! We enjoyed our time on the boat during the day as well as the nice firepit area in the evenings. Was also nice having mature trees with a nice grassy area to play yard games or sit and relax in our lawn chairs. The kitchen was very well stocked as well as the rest of the house. We plan to come back next year!

Would definitely recommend this property!
