About this house rental

Loch Sechrist Cottage is a modern (2010) home on Sechrist lake part of the Barbee chain of lakes. Fantastic boating and swimming.

The property is Ideal for families. The house has 3 floors of living space. Great for entertaining and socializing. Sechrist is fed by spring water and has a sandy bottom. In our opinion it has the clearest water of the other lakes in the Barbee chain. In front of the house there is a private sandy beach. The water is shallow so ideal for children.

The Barbee Lakes chain is composed of seven interconnected, natural lakes situated west of North Webster, Indiana. The lakes include Kuhn, Big Barbee, Little Barbee, Irish, Banning, Sawmill and Sechrist. They are interconnected by Grassy Creek which extends upstream from the chain to Ridinger Lake and downstream to Lake Tippecanoe. The lakes’ watershed stretches southeast into Whitley County, encompassing approximately 33,150 acres or 52 square miles.

Sechrist Lake - Deepest of the Barbee chain, Sechrist Lake covers 105 acres with a sand bottom, maximum depth of 70 feet and average depth of 35 feet. Principal game fish are large-mouth bass, small-mouth bass, pike, bluegills, perch and crappies.

There is a pier for your boat. There are local boat companies who hire boats. Please note the pier is taken out in the winter months but you can still launch a small boat from the beech. We have additional parking for boat trailers

There are excellent restaurants, golf courses , antique stores and tourist attractions. Or just come and relax

    I grew up spending summers at a lake cottage. This home welcomed us with so many features and experiences that brought me back to the days I spent on the lake growing up! It was the perfect blend of comfort and peaceful relaxation, with a stunning view, we were looking for. We loved that the lake was just steps from the cottage door, so you could dash in for a refill on snacks or drinks with ease! What a great bunch of neighbors, too! We love this home and hope to return!

    My husband and I stayed for 8 days, brought our boat, fished and cruised all 7 lakes. The water was crystal clear, the perch and bluegill were the biggest we've ever caught. The home was nice, not over/understated in the listing, but pretty well on point. We felt right at home, everything we needed was there. Running into town for groceries or bait was all we needed to do. A pleasurable week at a pleasurable property. The Scottish accents around the home were also a nice touch. Tammi & Marty M

    Everything about this place was great. If you're not accustomed to lake properties the smell of the water in the house will take some getting used to as my family found out. But that is life at the lake. The house is super comfortable, roomy, well-equipped and the views and activities can't be overstated. Kayaking all over the lake was a personal favorite. I would highly recommend this place to anybody looking for a fun and relaxing getaway.
