The Gemini was super cute, a true hidden gem. The hosts were super accommodating! The tv had all the streaming services logged in so we were able to do a movie night in to relax after visiting with friends. The bed was so comfy and I swear I slept like a baby. The retro pink bathroom was a cute touch. I definitely will book The Genini again the next time I'm in Elkhart

Even though it’s attached to the main house it was very private. Our only issue was the size of the refrigerator, but we made it work and we enjoyed our stay.
