Beautiful and Historic Log Cabin: cozy, quiet, huge hot tub! Quiet getaway!
Our historic log cabin is a comfortable, cozy home that was restored from its 1836 beginning. This cabin is perfect for a weekend (or week) of relaxing with family or friends. Outside there is a grill for summer evenings spent on the wrap around porch. The sound of the wind through the nearby pine trees is a special country sound you don't get everywhere. Several yard games and a hammock along with plenty of lawn chairs are also on the porch. Off the porch is a huge 8 person hot tub with lights and jets for exceptional relaxation. Another special outdoor experience (if you're lucky) is the sound of rain on the unique standing seam metal roof. It creates a cozy, happy atmosphere. On the main floor we have an open concept kitchen with all the expected amenities like full size fridge with ice maker and stove and dishwasher as well as garbage disposal and French Press coffee maker. Adjacent to the kitchen dining room is a living room with comfortable seating around a 55" smart TV. DVD player is available if needed. Off the living area is a full bathroom with an antique claw foot tub that helps the cabin to fit the era it was built in. Up a flight up stairs you will find a full bathroom with tub/shower combo complete with extra toothbrushes, razors and soap and shampoo, kids play area on the landing and 2 bedrooms. First bedroom is a generous sized room with queen bed, full size closet and sitting area. Second bedroom houses a full sized bed and bunk bed. Just so you are aware, we live here on the property and are often here during your stay if you need anything. We enjoy hosting family and friends on the weekends, so often we have people coming and going but it won't interfere with your privacy or stay at all. Only guests listed in the reservation are allowed on the property. No extra guests without written permission. Property is equipped with a Generac generator in case of power outage from storms, etc. 15 min to Nappanee 40 min to Notre Dame 40 min to Shipshewana 10 min to Goshen 15 min to Elkhart

The cabin is a great place for a family gathering. It is comfortable, has a working kitchen and a nice table. The cabin is out in the country and is quiet.
This was an amazing place to stay. It was private and peaceful yet close to restaurants and shopping. The area is beautiful and we will definitely recommend this home to others.
Wonderful place to stay for my wife and I while visiting the area! Melody was great to work with. The accommodations worked very well for us and we greatly enjoyed our stay!
This restored log cabin nestled outside of Goshen, IN was a perfect setting while exploring the Quilt Gardens along the Heritage Trail throughout the Elkhart area. The hosts were generous in all the amenities. The wraparound porch was a perfect spot for morning coffee while enjoying the birdsong. This property is highly recommended to all who enjoy the quiet calm of the countryside.
The cabin is beautiful. We setup a tee time at a local course and we were able to come back and chill. In the evenings we had a bonfire and played cornhole it was a great weekend for everyone

About the host
Hosted by Melody Martin
My husband and I are taking on the tradition of short term rental. My grandparents had done this for years before they became too elderly to continue. We've done a complete remodel along with some change in floor plans to make this up to date for current travelers.
Why they chose this property
This property was built from the ground up by my grandparents, so obviously its very special to us. Every building that is here (there is an early 1900's cottage and old barn/shop) was either built by my grandparents or moved here.
What makes this property unique
We particularly love the quietness of this setting. Goshen is a busy, thriving "small town" and we love that its more peaceful and feels remote and yet we are really quite close to anything we need. There are scores of restaurants and a couple theaters within a short distance.
