Songbird Haven, 3 min from town, Pumpkinvine, MEC,concerts. 3 bedroom, 2 bath.

Unplug from the outside world ! No TV, wifi or internet makes this place a Haven of rest, relax and rejuvenate. Inside it looks a bit like my amish gramma's house did, very plain and simple, with more modern conveniences then my Gramma had back in her days !! Only sounds are the songbird, neighborhood children's laughter and the clip clop of horse and buggy. Happy laughter & sounds from the happy coiple residing in the basement. Watch the orioles and hummingbirds from the front porch ! Sit around the fire pit on the back patio or backyard. Feel the peace and quiet of a country, while being right outside ( 3 min) the town of Shipshewana.

We have big back yard for children to run & play. Board games, Dominoes, Racko, Marble Board game.

Jason, a young Amish guy, the property manager/maintenance, resides in the basement. He keeps to himself, but if you happen to see him doing yardwork, feel free to have a chat with him, otherwise he will stay to himself. He has his own private entrances.

Pumpkinvine Bike trail is 1 mile from this house.


Blue Gate Theater and Concert is 3-5 min .

Flea market every Tuesday and Wednesday

4-5 min from MEC Center, go the back roads & by pass town.

Lots of Lakes, fishing, jet ski, boating

We stayed in this lovely home for 2 nights so we could go to a few concerts at the Blue Gate. The home was everything I hoped it would be. It was as warm and welcoming as Miriam is and in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

Beautiful home with ample space and a lovely feel! Front porch swing and patio were great for AM coffee and PM relaxing! Miriam is a wonderful lady and her story is familiar…you must read the journal! Also, check out the cookbooks and Amish information!! We loved it!
