About this property

Lemon Hill Amish Guest House. . . an Amish themed, whole house experience.

Getaway to the country, yet close to it all! This Amish themed home was built by the Amish church for a widow. It is in the heart of Amish Country, Northern Indiana. Close to Middlebury, and Shipshewana Amish Country. Almost everything in the home was Amish made or comes from an Amish store, sale or our own Amish family. This place is unique in that you can sit in a rocker on the front porch just 28 steps to where the buggies pass, and watch Amish families live out their amazing normal daily activities. Surrounded by farmland, this is a peaceful retreat from the day to day busyness of life. You will be welcomed with a sweet homemade Amish sweet and fresh farm eggs and butter. Goshen, Middlebury, Elkhart, Notre Dame are all within close driving range. Includes a fire pit and paver brick seating area and wood.
Sit on the front porch and watch the buggies go by! Hear the roosters in the morning as and visit with the donkeys and cattle. Such a sweet, unique place with simple pleasures all around it, get back to the country! The perfect place to relax and unplug. This is for the whole House!
Just a few miles from Das Dutchman Essenhaus Restaurant and Bakery, 10 miles from the quaint shops of Shipshewana, and an easy 45-minute drive to Notre Dame (for the football fans). Take a bike ride or a peaceful walk on the Pumpkinvine Nature Trail, less than 1 mile away. Nestled in the heart of Amish country, enjoy the buggies passing by!
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and a patio.

The home was a very peaceful place to stay, yet close to Shipshe. Loved the donkeys that were next to the house, too. The home was very clean and everything that we needed was there. I would not hesitate to stay again

A wonderful little getaway in a tucked away corner of Amish County. Friendly host, incredibly clean and everything was clear, easy to find, and labeled. Came stocked with the essentials and a lot more than what we were expecting, which was a nice surprise (a welcome plate of yummy cookies, some things in the fridge that we were welcome to use, a propane grill and fire pit, etc.). Friendly animals that chilled in their own fenced-in area that loved head pats and neck scritches. We had a blast during our stay!

This property was all we were expecting -- and more! The home was clean and neat and provided unique decor to look at. Beds were comfortable! The kitchen and bathroom were stocked with way more than I ever expected. The cookies were a sweet touch. I am a big animal lover, so my favorite part was the donkeys and goats! We would love to stay at Lemon Hill again and highly recommend it!

As a first-time-guest to northern Indiana, we were overwhelming pleased with our stay. Our visit was driven by Anne Wilson concert tickets (that were purchased 6 mons prior) at the Elkhart County Fair, and just exploded with adventure from there. The house was perfect… coming from the country in north Texas, we felt right at home with the beautiful crop land behind us, including a heard of deer one cool evening. My daughter fell in love with the two friendly goats. And we thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit out back. Brenda was the perfect host and very attentive to any concerns/questions we had. The cookies that were left for us were delicious and lunch/ice cream at Mooey’s, just right down the road, was a wonderful treat. I would highly recommend walking/biking the Pumpkinvine Trail, which is an awesome, paved trail, less than half-mile down the road. Other suggested activities we experienced:-Lake Michigan at Indiana Dunes State Park, lunch at The Goblin Dunside, ice cream at Bubbles in Michigan City-Norte Dame, we just parked/walked around-Shipshewana, although we missed the Tues/Wed flea market, we had wonderful lunch & desserts at Shawna Rae’s and 15 min buggy ride around town w/Buggy Lane Tours-Amish Family Dinner w/Buggy Lane *highly recommend!-Harvest Community Church made us feel very welcome Psalm 27:13 tells us to “see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living” and we definitely saw so much of His goodness in Middlebury, IN!! we will be back
Many horse/buggies passing by

Home was everything we expected, tucked off the main road but still able to enjoy seeing the Amish carriages go by. Hostess left us a plate of yummy cookies and, of course, we had to go check out Mooey's Ice Cream right up the road!

Brenda is an excellent host. The house was very clean and tidy. It felt like home with books and games, and a porch swing. We even got to pet the donkeys! They loved the attention. Brenda has thought of everything you might need. If you have an opportunity to visit this area, I highly recommend Lemon Hill Amish Guest house.

Perfect place to catch our breath, enjoy nature, and relax.

Our stay at Lemon Hill was exactly what we needed—a peaceful retreat from the busyness of life. Surrounded by blooming lilac bushes and the gentle sounds of farm animals, we felt instantly at ease. Mornings were a dream—sipping coffee on the porch wrapped in handmade quilts, watching the countryside come to life. The Pumpkinvine Trail was a highlight—perfect for walking and simply soaking in the serene views. Every detail of the stay felt thoughtfully simple and refreshingly calm. It was the perfect place to catch our breath and reset.

This was a fantastic stay. The scenery is gorgeous and the peace and quiet is just what we needed. The house was very clean and every convenience was thought of. The beds were super comfy. The decor was stunning. We enjoyed our time on the porch watching the Amish buggies go by and visiting with the on site horses and donkeys. Our hosts were wonderful. We were greeted with fresh baked cookies and they checked in half way through our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. We couldn’t have asked for more. We are already planning our return for next summer. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
