Our Hours

We are Closed.

Due to a devastating structure fire on January 4th, 2026 the Lake House Inn is now closed. We want to thank all of the patrons over the years that made this place a spectacular destination.

Our History

The Lake House Inn property traces back over 180 years to 1835 when the land was purchased by Isaac Bronson of New York from the Federal Government, however the story of the land has much deeper roots as it served as part of the Native American Village of Tay-e-he-dah which generally was inhabited by the Winnebago Band of Natives. Tay-e-he-dah was considered an abandoned ancient village by the government surveyors by the beginning of the Black Hawk War of 1834. As many may know there are many existing and destroyed Native American Mounds located in the area.
