Shipshewana: soggiorni in cottage

It was a great little getaway place for my husband and I. It was smaller than expected, but still worked out perfectly for the 2 of us. The hot tub was great! Kitchen is well stocked, and the place was very clean!

We loved our weekend on long lake. We had a nice relaxing time hanging out, fishing, enjoying a fire in the evening, etc. Also very much appreciated how stocked the house was with small things we needed, but wouldnt think to bring, like ziplock bags or just common kitchen tools. Overall, a great spot to chill on the lake and Laura and Steve are great hosts who respond quickly if there are any issues.

Had a fantastic family vacation at Diamond Lake. The cottage was perfect - cozy, clean, and VERY well stocked. Check in before you go to the grocery store because you won’t need anything other than food and drinks - all other supplies are provided. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of board games for rainy days. And the front porch and yard allowed for some family fun in the evenings after being on the beach on sunny days. Thank you for hosting - - we will be back next summer!

Absolutely needed that! The view and sounds of the pond is all we needed. Every morning I could sit and listen to the swans, ducks and cranes. The muskrats are cute as well. Perfect place. Not too much but everything you need. Would definitely stay here again. Heidi is nearly at the other side of the world but she always responded within minutes. Sorry Heidi for giving that away, you’ll have to stay on your quick response game now😁.

What a great stay! Very clean and well-appointed. It was a very comfortable stay. I would definitely stay here again!

It's a beautiful location with the lake right out the front door. The place could use some updating, especially the mattresses and bathrooms, but it was definitely what we expected for a charming little lake house! We had a wonderful time, and you can tell Karen and her family love their home. Lots of things to do, right by a grocery store, and plenty of room for a comfortable stay. We'll be back!

Thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Don's cottage. Plenty of space for four people, and the kitchen had much of what we needed. The area was quiet and easy to get to, both from the road and the lake, via the channel. We brought our own boat. I would recommend renting Don's if you don't have one. Don was very responsive leading up to and during our stay. We would defintiely come back.

We had such a phenomenal time at the cottage. The family that owns the place is incredibly kind and welcoming. Truly made us feel at home and it’s an incredible location for a small get away. We’re very appreciative of the hospitality and opening their home

Great little charming cottage!! Easy communication with the host. Close to so many great restaurants like the Flipping Cow, Chubby Trout and the Root beer barrel. Lake access with kayaks! Little fire pit out back and a table w umbrella! Super hot water for shower!

This was a great place to stay. It was clean, modern and spacious for our family.

It was just what our family needed to get connected again.

We booked last minute due to other plans falling through due to floods in Kentucky. Jo was amazing and got us booked quickly. The cottage was comfortable. The lake was beautiful and peaceful. We will be returning when it's warm. We had an enjoyable trip exploring Shipshewana. We read in the sunroom and loved relaxing with a beautiful view. Thank you Jo for hosting us!

This is a great place. The house was clean and accurately portrayed but what really set it apart were the amenities. Sam thought of everything we would need and had it. Plenty of towels, blankets, kitchen items, condiments, cooking utensils and so much more. The best part were all the lake items. We had kayaks and a boat, two floating mats and plenty of life vests and toys for the kids. He had torches for the bugs, everything was clearly marked. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We spent lots of time in the water and it was right in our backyard. Sam had aluminum foil, off spray, shampoo, and even a basket in the bathroom with toothpaste, eye drops, make up wipes, etc. in the kitchen we had popcorn bags, granola bars, and plenty serving dishes. Everything was there. And also the check out instructions were manageable. Nothing outlandish. Loved that place!! Thank you!

John is a great host! Very responsive and communication was great. Everything was as described with lots of room for the kids to play games both inside and outside. We have family in the area so we will most likely stay again!

The location was great for us. The reviews are correct that the stairs are steep but they were okay. Quiet neighborhood. I would return if we were back to this area.

Lovely cottage on the lake. I spent lots of time on the covered deck with a book and some coffee. Short drive to both Shipshewana and Middlebury. Clean cottage with a very well equipped kitchen.

We enjoyed our stay very much! Jane had a nice note and cinnamon rolls waiting for us when we arrived! It was peaceful and relaxing, very easy to get the boat in the water and great access to the lake. We caught a lot of fish from the dock! Thanks for letting us stay!

this place was very quaint. very clean. Lake was snowy and frozen but beautiful! the indoor porch my favorite! easy check in and easy check out instructions, owner extremely nice. couldn't ask for a better stay! shipshewana only 15 mins away, a MUST SEE. Will be back when weather is better! Thank you for a great stay!

Had a relaxing long weekend with my wife and 3 kids. The kids loved fishing off the dock, playing in the sand, being out on the water on the kayaks, and wading in the water looking for clam's. fishing was good off the dock but didn't have any luck out on the water, but we saw them jumping so theyvare in there. Boat launch was easy to get innand out of. The location was super peaceful with a beautiful sunset over the water while enjoying the fire pit and making smores. House had everything we needed and was super clean and organized. Neighbor's were friendly and even tried to help me fix my boat while it was having issues. Host was responsive but also didn't need to chat much as everything was perfect. would love to stay here again for a long weekend!
