About this property

Songbird Haven, 3 min from town, & Pumpkinvine. Full house, 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. 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.

A storm took a few of our favorite pine trees, we ask that you'll excuse the mess, we are waiting to get more pine trees planted.

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

About the host

Hosted by Miriam Miller

Host profile image
I have always enjoyed traveling, and meeting new friends/people. I started going to Ohio to stay with my elderly parents a few years ago and my house stood empty. A friend suggested I Airbnb and I really do like sharing my home with others while I'm now the primary caregiver for my parents and only come home occasionally. As you can tell I love flowers, house plants and birds....

Why they chose this property

This is a quiet neighborhood, where we Amish all look out for each other. Many Amish live in the circle of the subdivision, it's safe to go for walks or runs.

What makes this property unique

I love birds and flowers, so you'll see lots of houseplants and flowerbeds. Feel free to pull the weeds 😉 lol we hope you'll enjoy the flower gardens as much as we do. There's tea in a few of the raised beds, help yourself and make a fresh pot of tea.
