Vacation rentals in Shipshewana

Had a wonderful stay! Scott was very quick to answer any questions I had, prior to arriving. He also reached out during our stay, just to check in/ask if we needed anything, which was very kind and thoughtful. The house is adorable and cozy! The entertainment/movie room was everything and made us want to duplicate the setup at our own house! We are local to the surrounding area and usually visit the area in the summer, but this was a perfect spot for our son's 10th winter birthday celebration! ❤️ PS - the trains didn't bother us! They are quick stints and we thought it was cool/fun to listen for their arrival!

LOVED it! Was there on a business trip in late winter, and wished it was for pleasure, and in a warmer month, so I could enjoy the lake it sits on, and get to relax while there. However, I was overwhelmed with prep for television and radio appearances and a live cooking show, so I only had the pleasure of using the AWESOME soaking tub to de-stress from super long hectic days, sleeping very well in oh-so-comfy bedding, and tossing together breakfast in a charming kitchen stocked with basics, as well as a well-stocked coffee bar. I thought the fresh creamer in the fridge was a nice touch, and I loved sitting at the kitchen table enjoying my coffee and the beautiful lake view. I hope to return some day -under less stressful circumstances- so I can get to enjoy all its outdoor amenities in warmer weather, too. I also want to mention that I felt very safe staying there alone (owners live next door) and the place is so cozy I felt like I was at home throughout my entire 3-day stay.

We had a beautiful, peaceful stay at Karissa’s cabin. Lots of natural lighting, spacious unit, and lovely amenities like WiFi, jacuzzi, kitchen appliances, and washer/dryer. There are a lot of nearby stores for any last minute groceries or shopping. The views were absolutely stunning. I would recommend staying here and would absolutely come back again but in the warmer season to explore that trails here! Thank you for having us at your cabin! We had such a nice, relaxing stay.

Tonya was an exceptional host, always going above and beyond to ensure my stay was as comfortable as possible. She was incredibly helpful, promptly attending to any requests I had, whether it was providing local recommendations or assisting with the amenities in the apartment. The space itself was impeccably clean and thoughtfully equipped with everything I needed, from kitchen supplies to cozy linens. Her attention to detail truly made a difference in my experience.

Such a serene & peaceful cottage! Perfect for an anniversary getaway! While the cottage could sleep a larger family easily, we found the place perfectly cozy for the 2 of us. The natural fireplace added so much to the ambiance! The very clean cottage provided everything we needed for my husband & I to enjoy a lovely time away. We also noticed that the hosts went above & beyond to stock all you might need if traveling with children or your dog. Their communication was excellent! We didn’t venture far from the cottage, but that was our plan. Nice place to get in a good walk with the hilly road. The stairs to the lake were sturdy, but it is steep as they clearly state. Being able take in the lake views from the gorgeous upper deck on the comfortable outdoor couch was a highlight! (The afternoon sun was so inviting!) We wish the weather could’ve been nicer to enjoy the kayaks/paddleboat more… and also the fire pit…maybe next time. :) Thank you for a lovely stay!

My family has been here before and it was during the summer and we loved it sooo much that we came back but this time it’s during spring, we definitely prefer going during the summer but we love this place so much!!! My kids love it ❤️ we loved using the grill and the paddle boats. Would definitely suggest it for families!

This was our third year staying at Chris’s cottage. The cottage was spotless as always, equipped with snacks, water, plenty of towels and amenities. The cottage is on Fish Lake, beautiful and peaceful but also fun to watch all of the water activities and wildlife. The weather was perfect. The mark of a fantastic place and location is never having to turn on the TV to pass the time. We will be back next year if it’s available! Thank you, Chris!

This house was perfect for our girl's trip to see a concert at the Blue Gate Inn. We walked right across the street from the house and ate dinner at the yummy Blue Gate Inn restaurant then walked the 1 mile walk all on sidewalks/safe to the concert. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend this house for a weekend getaway!

Great host! Very friendly and helpful. Beautiful place to get away and relax. Enjoyed our stay and Amanda and Tim made it perfect for our family.
