Football Weekend Getaway

My husband and I came to Shipshewana to stay for a Notre Dame football game. This property was perfect for the two of us. It was super clean, quiet, and we even got to visit with the dog that lives on the property. We will for sure rebook when we come back!!

An oasis

Lovely, spacious home in a peaceful location, yet close to everything in Shipshewana. Well- equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and very nice bathroom with plenty of towels. The living room was equally comfortable, furnished with recliners and easy chairs. This was especially important because the weather kept us indoors. Ken and Sarah are thoughtful hosts who have created a welcoming space for their guests.

It was a beautiful place well decorated. We had wood for fire pit a friendly dog kept us company. The only thing I'd bring next time is a blue tooth speaker. No Tv or radio.

Wonderful host!

This is such a beautiful property. The kids really enjoyed the scenery and the space itself is immaculate. The host is incredible and responded with such grace when I got my days mixed up and started bothering her prematurely. She even called to make sure everything was okay when I'm the one who made the mistake. The hosts are so friendly and helpful and the town is absolutely charming. Thanks for such a wonderful weekend!

Great country home

We loved our stay at this property. It was a great country setting and very comfortable. The furniture was like new and very comfortable. Many extras like coffee and tea. They provided soaps, shampoo, and plenty of bath towels and wash cloths. The owner checked on us to make sure we were happy with everything and wanted to know if we needed anything. This house is very convenient to all of the attractions and shopping in Shipshewana. You can't go wrong staying here. I would highly recommend this house. Thanks for a job well done.

Beautiful inside and out

This is a beautiful, updated property. This guest house has great beds & plenty of space to move around inside & out. The shower worked great & furniture was very comfortable. Very beautifully decorated and one of the cleanest places I have ever stayed. The owners were responsive & friendly. There is no air-conditioning, but to be fair, the discription did not list AC. The fans worked well & were very quiet. The guest house was a bit close to the owners home & the road. I did not expect this based on the pictures of the home. We enjoyed our stay & highly recommend this property. Thank you.
