Description
This rare opportunity is the only waterfront home located within the Middle Fork Waterfowl Resting Area of Lake Monroe! Known as “Crooked Creek Retreat”, it is the only waterfront residence along a 4-mile stretch of the lake. This home is a turnkey short-term rental that comes fully furnished, an excellent investment for this quiet corner of Brown County! This unique positioning places the property in a quiet area with direct waterfrontage, in an area managed for wildlife.
The home offers approximately 1,544 square feet with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The interior features an open-concept kitchen and living area, designed for functionality and group gatherings. Large lake-facing windows extend low toward the floor, allowing for clear water views from a seated position while bringing in consistent natural light throughout the main living space. The entire home looks like brand new construction.
This property has been utilized as a short-term rental, including Airbnb-style use, with a history of recurring bookings. Its location near Bloomington and within a recognized recreational area contributes to the ongoing demand for waterfront homes and vacation rentals in the region.
Outdoor features include a rear deck overlooking the lake and a gazebo positioned closer to the shoreline, providing additional space for outdoor use and lake viewing. The home is safely situated on elevated ground and is not located within a floodplain.
Lake Monroe spans approximately 10,750 acres and includes nearly 24,000 combined acres of land and water, and is supported by multiple state recreation areas, public access points, and boat ramps.
This offering combines a waterfront home, recreational property, and established short-term rental opportunity on Lake Monroe. The property may be suitable for continued residential use, recreational enjoyment, or Airbnb and vacation rental use.
