The kind of place that gets everyone together.

Long Lake Memories was made for the trips that can be hardest to pull off and easiest to remember. Grandparents on the patio. Kids racing to the beach. Coffee in the sunroom before the house wakes up. Late nights together after a full day on the lake.

With nine bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces and room for up to 30 overnight guests, the whole family can stay together under one roof.

Spend the morning gathered around the kitchen table, head down to the lake for the afternoon, then come back together for dinner as the sun goes down.

With more than 6,000 square feet and spaces throughout the property to gather, play and relax, being together doesn't mean everyone has to do the same thing.

There's room for everyone at the lake.

The kind of weekends everyone talks about long after they're over.

Bring the whole family.

Long Lake Memories makes it possible for large families and groups to stay together without sacrificing comfort. With more than 6,000 square feet, nine bedrooms and gathering spaces throughout the property, everyone can be part of the weekend—from grandparents to grandkids.

EXPLORE THE PROPERTY

No itinerary required.

Slow mornings, long meals, afternoons by the water and plenty of time for whatever comes next.

The lake is at the heart of a stay at Long Lake Memories. Start the morning with coffee by the shore, spend the afternoon paddling, fishing or cruising the lake, then come back together as the sun starts to set.

A private beach sits just steps from the house, with complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, a canoe and fishing boat ready for guests to enjoy. For full days out on the water, our pontoon boat is also available to rent.

Days are better on the water.

 Loved the house, the little beach, pontoon boat, kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. And well stocked with games and puzzles. Likely go back again. Very clean and comfortable.

Great property for family reunion of 12 adults and 13 children. 

The homeowner was wonderful to work with, and the house was perfect for a large group. We made wonderful memories here and would absolutely stay again. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a beautiful, relaxing place to gather with family or friends.

We had an incredible stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place for our family reunion!

As large group of 27 spanning two generations, the space accommodated everyone with ease. Kayaking, boating and beach soccer kept the energy high, indoor games provided quieter moments of friendly competition and bonfire gatherings brought the whole group together. We left with full hearts and cherished memories. 

From the moment we arrived, the property made a lasting first impression.

The pontoon boat, gardens and waterfall pond made for a perfect, relaxing weekend. The house is spacious, well equipped and ideal for groups—plenty of room to cook, gather, and unwind.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront home!

We enjoyed boating, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding and outdoor walks, as well as indoor games. It was easy to connect with the host; he was very responsive to our requests. We are so thankful we had an opportunity to enjoy this beautiful, historic home on the shore of Long Lake.

Our group of 22 had lots of room to spread out.

Long Lake Memories feels tucked away, but some of Northwest Indiana’s favorite places are just a short drive away. Spend the day along Lake Michigan, wander downtown Valparaiso or discover something new with every season.
