Lake Lemon Retreat, formerly known as East Chelan (she-LAN) Cabin
Tucked high on hill on a pretty country drive sits the cabin called East Chelan - named after the breathtaking city in Washington…a place where the nature lover will find numerous outdoorsy things to do. A small fishing pond (catch and release only) just outside the front door is stocked with small mouth bass, and grass carp for the fisherman who brings along their favorite pole. Access to Lake Lemon, as well as Yellowwood State Forest are also close-by. Located halfway between Bloomington and Nashville, East Chelan is well situated for folks who want to attend sporting events at Indiana University, as well as hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking in Brown County State Park.
Lake Lemon Retreat comfortably sleeps 4 people within its two bedrooms upstairs on comfy queen beds and for larger groups, additional sleeping space is available on a queen air mattress which is stored in the upstairs closet. There is one full bath on the main level. One of the bedrooms has a TV.
Both bedrooms are upstairs in a loft type setting on opposite sides of the loft with curtain doors. One bedroom has TV with high-definition antenna with Apple TV allowing guests to log into their own subscribed programs.
The living room with 65" smart TV with high definition antenna, dining area, and kitchen share a common space, which makes it nice when cooking and visiting with your companions. Here is where you’ll gather to socialize, watch TV, or cuddle up in front of wood fireplace with logs a-blazin’. There is a sitting area of all windows for lots of conversations to be had.
The cabin also provides high speed fiber.
The Lake Lemon North Shore Marina is 2 miles from the cabin where you can rent a boat from them. You can also bring your boat to the marina and have a great time on the lake. Driveway not designed for boat trailers.
