Monticello, Ind., has it all. Fishing, golfing, horseback riding, antiquing and even an amusement park are all just a small sampling of what this town has to offer. Add the friendly atmosphere you expect from a small town as well as lakes Shafer and Freeman, it's not surprising that much of the town's revenue stems from tourism. There are several reasons why visitors, time and again, choose to stay at Victorian Bay Resort when visiting the Monticello area.
One of the primary reasons Victorian Bay Resort continues to be the lodging of choice for visitors is its beach location on Lake Shafer Bay, which is perfect for water enthusiasts whether they like to fish, swim, boat or just hang out at the water's edge and relax amid the 270 feet of lakefront, featuring a welcoming grass lawn.
In addition to the peaceful lakeside setting, Victorian Bay Resort is located near other attractions, including Indiana Beach Amusement Park, with rides including a roller coaster, Ferris wheel and even a water park. Other nearby area attractions include High Speed Naskart Go Kart Racing, horseback riding at Crooked Creek Trails and even an authentic Lakeshore Drive-In Theater.
Victorian Bay Resort also features a variety of amenities that keep guests coming back year after year. Each cottage has a fully equipped kitchen, including a stove, microwave, refrigerator and cooking utensils; air-conditioning; grill for barbecuing; cable; and Wi-Fi.
Plus, visitors have unlimited access to free rowboats and paddle boats as well as a swim dock, fire pit and picnic area. Docks also are available for visitors' boats.
Four cottages are available at Victorian Bay Resort. Light and airy, these Victorian lake cottages sleep between seven and 10 people. With immaculately clean cottages and well-maintained grounds, this is the perfect place to take the extended family for a long weekend or a few weeks. Although not fancy, the decor is meant for function and comfort and suits the lakeside cottage setting. However, what truly sets this resort above the rest is the quality of customer service you'll experience.
The owners, John and Barbara, will make sure your stay is the best possible. Friendly, warm and inviting, making their guests feel comfortable and welcome is part of the secret to this resort's success. You will not find two nicer innkeepers in the region.
Victorian Bay Resort is also very affordable. The owners even offer a discount for multiple rentals. You can take the entire family and include extended family and friends for a fraction of the price you'd pay for multiple rooms at a hotel. In addition, the included kitchenettes and grills can save families even more money, compared with dining out for every meal, making Victorian Bay Resort not only a fun and comfortable place to stay but an affordable one as well.
