The first winery in the NE of Indiana, open since 2001 at the crossroads of I-80/90 and I-69, in the town of Fremont. Mere minutes from the outlet mall and Pokagon State Park, Satek (rhymes with attic) offers free wine tasting (with proper ID) 361 days out of the year, 10am to 6pm EST.

Satek Winery is a great place for free wine-tasting of its award-winning wines, except for one specialty wine that costs more than $50 a bottle, which costs $4 for a sample. If you buy that wine, however, you get your $4 back. Word of warning: Once you taste this wine, Kriebaum Bay Sesquidecennial Red Dessert, you'll absolutely want to purchase it. It's the best wine I've ever tasted. There's also a small gift shop, plus they ship if you want.

We are a family of 4 couples, each couple stayed in a different cabin. We stayed in Towhee, Flicker both pet friendly one bedroom units with fold out couches, and Snipe and Redwing, Studio units with pullout couches. We also rented the linens and towels. No one complained. These cabins are immaculate, equipped with kitchens, kitchen gadgets, heat, and screened in porches. The beds were comfortable, the towels fluffy and clean and the sheets soft. The windows opened, the doors and drawers opened and shut, the equipment was clean and worked. We used the refrigerators, the freezers, the range, microwave, toaster and coffee makers. We were pleasantly surprised to find kitchen towels and a dishrag along with dish soap. We used the grill located just outside the unit. Upon arriving we were greeted by Ranger Mark who explained everything and helped us get our linens to the units. There are lovely moderately difficult and very easy trails and walkways. The Rolling Oak Trail is about 3 miles and more off-the-grid trail. It has hills, grassy trails, flower fields and lots of twists and turns in the shade and sunshine. There’s also multi-use blacktopped trail which appears it could be manageable for bikes wheelchairs and baby strollers. The Trine Recreation Area is part of the Indiana State Recreation Areas and its smaller and more private than others we have visited. It’s wonderful. There’s the option of boating, hiking, biking and there’s a children’s playground. Just across the highway there is Pokagon State Recreation Area that is much larger with a larger and more diverse trail system along with horseback riding and an Inn as well as cabins and camping. It also has a black topped bike trail. We tried the shorts hikes one day and the 8 mile Devils Challenge another day. Pokagon SRA was busy, everyone was respectful of social distancing when passing. The hours for check-in 4 pm and it is 4 pm! Checkout is 11 am and they request you cleanup your cabin and pack up the linens and towels (if rented). It’s no big deal and as long as you’re respectful of the property the cleanup should be easy. The cabins are 5 years old and on great shape. You can see they are well maintained. My suggestions to further improve the units: one more shelf in kitchen high up on the level of the cabinet above the refrigerator. I struggled to find places for non-refrigerated foods. A full length mirror for those of us who need to be sure we are ready for the public (perfect spot on short wall near the bed head to the right of the pocket door) and some hooks in the bedroom. The dresser is great but without a closet coats, hats and clothes that are worn regularly need hanging. It looks like maybe a few people have tried hanging off the curtain rods? We highly recommend Trine State Recreation Area and it’s lovely cabins.

I have to say I was really disappointed in this outlet. First of all one side has only 3 shops in it. The other side had more, but the pricing was very expensive. They even told us at one of the shops that they are no longer an outlet shop, but a regular retail store. Not happy about that. I really was hoping to score some good deals. Sadly nothing. I went to buy something at Tommy Hilfiger and they wanted $50.00 for a sweatshirt, that was the clearance price and it wasn't even a very nice sweatshirt. It was obviously from 3 seasons ago. All there stuff was. Super disappointed. We also went to carters, no good prices. Justice very high priced. We did end up finding a few good deals at Gymboree but it was still over $10.00. So I would say skip this outlet altogether. It isn't worth the trip.
