About this house rental
Come and enjoy yourself in our semi-detached cottage during your stay in the heart of Amish country. Located close to everything while still being on a quiet street. Enjoy your morning coffee on our newly constructed covered deck located at the back of the house or take a quick walk down the street and allow the Bluegate Restaurant to make it for you. We are close to multiple playgrounds, miles of beautiful paved walking and biking paths, downtown shops and of course the flea market. There is a full service kitchen including a replica vintage stove. The master bedroom is located on the main floor off of the kitchen diner. It contains a queen bed and en-suite with both a shower and stand alone tub. While located on the first floor the master bedroom does a have a slight 2" step up. The second bathroom can be found at the bottom of the stairs just off of the living room. There is a queen bed hidden in the sofa. Up the stairs you will find bedroom #2 with a double bed and bedroom #3 with 2 twin beds. While these bedrooms are not connected with the central air system, each room has a window a/c to make sure that everyone sleeps comfortably even on the hottest night. Through the kitchen we have a recently renovated laundry room.

I spent 2 nights with my friends from college (We are turning 70 next year. The peaceful atmosphere, beautiful back deck, and easy walk to shopping was just as promised. Stairs were steep but we knew that going in. Thank you

Nice, clean and loved the covered back deck! We didn’t stay at the home too much, out and about shopping on the 2 night stay.

House was in a great location and could easily walk to all of the shops. House was very cozy with a lot of room and amenities. Back porch area was very pleasant to sit out on. Was told that we could park on street; however, street is not overly wide and with it being Labor Day Weekend, there was a lot of traffic so didn't feel comfortable parking on street. Able to park in lot one block over but not convenient. Would be nice to have additional parking in back. Thanks for a great stay!!!

The house was cute & very clean! Location was perfect for walking to things! Will definitely recommend to friends. Big enough for 2 couples to stay if spouses were to go with us.
Only awkward thing was parking on the street. I drive a Suburban & I was the only one parked on the street the whole time. I took up half the lane. Ha!

Friends were coming up to stay in the Shipshe area, see a concert one night, and just unplug and relax. This home was absolutely PERFECT. It had enough room for everyone to have their space, but areas to have combined fun and play games in too! It was clean, had everything we needed, and the host was communicative with questions about best places to park and whatnot. When I stay up in the area in the future, I'll do my best to plan around using this property each time. Thank you!!!

Perfect place to stay for a girls weekend. House was very clean and well furnished. Within walking distance to almost all shops. The back porch was especially nice to sit out under at night. Very easy instructions for arriving and leaving. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable!

Property was amazing, great location. Kitchen was missing a couple of basic staples or we couldn't find them (knives was biggest issue). We will absolutely stay again!

My adult daughters, cousin, and I rented this cottage for a ladies weekend away. i highly recommend both the cottage and the property owners! The house was clean, comfortable, well maintained, and well stocked. The owners were responsive and concerned about us having a relaxing and enjoyable time while we were there. The cottage is right around the corner from the Blue Gate Restaurant and the Subway/Gas station, so everything we needed was within walking distance, except for when we wanted to travel further down the road to explore. We are a board game family, and there was plenty of room to relax and enjoy some games in the evenings. The new covered deck on the back was a pleasant place to sit and relax. If you have issues with stairs, be aware that 2 of the bedrooms are upstairs, and the stairs are slightly steep and narrow. Both bathrooms are on the main floor. Window air conditioning units were in each upstairs bedroom, so we were able to stay comfortable on a very hot weekend. Overall, I highly recommend this cottage for your next stay in Shipshewana!

We highly recommend staying in this lovely home! Everything about this home is wonderful. The host was very welcoming & responsive. The home was comfortably furnished-so cute! Everything was spotlessly clean.
Possibly the best part was the fantastic location on a quiet street where all you could hear was an occasional clip-clip of horse hooves as a buggy would travel nearby. The house is located within east walking distance to many shops, experiences, and the best ice cream in the USA!
We highly recommend booking an experience with Buggy Lane tours, eating ice cream at Vanilla Bean creamery, breakfast at Corn Crib Cafe, learning about the history of the Amish community at the Menn-Hoff Museum, and shopping/browsing at the Flea Market.
For us, this was a girls’ trip of four retired educators, and we loved every moment!

❤️The location is wonderful, the owners are very accommodating, the house is well appointed, the beds are comfortable, and we bring our sewing machines and have a quilt retreat. This is our second time here and we’ve booked for two more mini-vacations. Highly recommend!!!❤️

This property is absolutely beautiful and CLEAN. There was plenty of room for 5 people to move around. The newly completed covered backyard deck was impressive. So relaxing. Loved hearing the horses when they went by the house. This property is close to everything in Shipshewana. We walked everywhere, even to the flea market. We were so impressed with this property, we would like to stay here again in the future. You need to stay here too!

The house was exactly as listed. It was in a great location, and we had fun walking from the house to many locations. It was clean, and we really enjoyed the new covered deck on the back! We would absolutely return to this house next time we are in Shipshewana! It was exactly what we needed for our weekend there during my daughter’s volleyball tournament!

Only concern was that the pictures did/ could not show that there was a step up from kitchen into bedroom on ground floor. One of my friends who was with us uses a walker and she fell. I was looking for a place that was all one level and was not able to see it in the pictures. Other than that it was a lovely place to stay and we enjoyed it.

We carried in two tables and spent four nights/three days machine piecing our quilt projects. The house was so clean and there’s a bed and bath on the main floor which was perfect for our friend who couldn’t do stairs. We’ve already booked a five night stay for next year and would highly recommend it to others. It’s a perfect location to walk to Lolly’s and other shops.

We have stayed at many VRBO homes over the years, and this home was the absolute best! From the beautiful decor to the warm hospitality of the hosts, it couldn't have been better. It was obvious that much thought and caring went into the home to make it just right for the guests. The Christmas tree and decorations were an added touch! Thank You, Jessica, and family for a wonderful stay. We will see you again!

Property was as advertised, just a couple blocks from downtown, and owner was responsive. We would stay there again!
Appreciated the nice sized kitchen table for playing games, and the spacious living room. It was also great to have two bathrooms.

The reviews of this home give a very accurate accounting of the home - we walked everywhere in Shipshewana, it’s super cute, calming, all we needed for a weekend with family. We appreciate the attentiveness of the owner, and had no issues. We would stay here again and we’d recommend it. Upstairs is better for younger legs but we were a multigenerational group and planned accordingly.

Cozy home, nice bedding and towels. Beds are a little squeaky and the stairs are steep, but overall a great place to stay. Only 1 roll of toilet paper in each bathroom so bring your own. Plenty of room for the 5 of us and there were extra blankets and pillows if needed.

Perfect setting and lovely old home. The only issues we had were the steep stairs and the soft mattresses. Not the best for 4 senior sisters that need to get up several times to use bathrooms that were downstairs. Maybe need an instruction book on how to operate TVs and other info. Hostess responded quickly.

Very nice little house to stay in, close to shopping/restaurants. It does have steep stairs, but we had seen this in the reviews. I would suggest more light in the separate downstairs bathroom. Host was available if needed questions answered. They were redoing the curbs/sidewalks/roads around the house, so this made it difficult to get in/out of the house(nothing the host can do about that), but she was accommodating about that. We enjoyed our time there.

The property was just what our group needed. It had a nice kitchen supplied with pans/utensils we needed. We spent a fair amount of time at the kitchen table playing board games and eating. The living room was comfortable and nicely decorated. When I needed answers or a couple of requests, Jessica responded quickly. My girlfriends and I had a lovely visit to the area.
