Recently renovated country cottage, 2.5 miles from Shipshewana
Relax and enjoy this recently renovated cozy cottage just 2.5 miles from the heart of Shipshewana. Close enough to enjoy all this small town has to offer and just a short drive back from a busy day at the shops where you can enjoy an evening relaxing under the large shade trees by the wishing well in the secluded back yard. From the front porch is a nice view of a neighboring farm and you can enjoy seeing the many amish buggies as they stroll by. If you have a sweet tooth, another perk is the cute little frozen custard /ice cream stand within walking distance of this cozy getaway. Inside you will find wireless internet, dish tv with all your favorites, DVD/Blue Ray player, a gas log fireplace with comfy seating space to unwind after a long day as well as a cozy nook for reading or having that morning cup of coffee. A Keurig coffee machine highlights this bright full size kitchen stocked with all the dishes, pots and pans needed to prepare your favorite gourmet meal if you choose. Microwave, electric skillet, toaster, electric griddle and hand mixer as well as oil, salt & pepper and a complete spice rack are all provided. A sound machine is provided for each bedroom for those light sleepers who might need a little something extra to help them doze off at night. This property is less than ten miles from the 80/90 Indiana Toll Road and only 43 miles from Notre Dame, making it not only attractive to football fans but to anyone looking for a nice quiet getaway. And another great perk; (No space heaters allowed)

Cozy Spot not far from town
While we didn't spend much time in the home as we were in town for a business show, our time there was really comfortable. We had snow on our visit which was shoveled off and brushed around our vehicles as well.

Second time around
This is one cozy, clean,safe place to stay. Located about 3 miles from downtown shipshewanna easy access to shopping, blue gate theater, restaurants. It has dish washer, washer and dryer, small outside front porch. We returned because we found it so peaceful and clean. Kitchen with all you need. We stayed here before and hope to return.
It was a lovely cottage and a great location close to Blue Gate Theatre, Shipshewana and Middlebury. Very clean and comfortable.

Lovely little home in Amish Country
Pleasantly surprised with the overall cleanliness and comfort the home had to offer! Great location to downtown Shipshewana. We went to the Bluegate theater, so just a short straight shot, maybe 5 minutes from the house.
