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!

Loved it!

What a peaceful place to enjoy our family girls' trip. We sat on the front porch and watched the horses and listened to the quiet sounds of the Amish country. The inside of the house was very unique and we loved reading the Amish directory!

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!

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.

Father's Day Weekend getaway

We enjoyed a quiet Father's Day Weekend family getaway in this lovely home! We enjoyed the quaint decor and comfy house with quiet country surroundings. All amenities were thought of and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating. We would suggest adding a non-slip bath mat to the shower for extra safety, but couldn't ask for a more relaxing stay.

The Perfect Stay

This was exactly what we wanted. Beautiful house. In the heart of Indiana Amish Country. Quiet, peaceful, and relaxing stay. Loved waking up in the morning with a hot coffee on the porch swing watching the Amish horse and buggies go by. Loved watching the sunrise at the pasture fence with the livestock. Property was very clean and pleasant. The hosts were incredibly friendly. We are a family of 8 and we were very comfortable in the house. The whole family had a great time and are already asking to go back to this house. We were really blessed by the hosts and their property!

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

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.

AMISH SERENITY

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!

Absolutely amazing!

I recently stayed at Lemon Hill with my family, and it was an incredible experience. This charming home, with its authentic Amish-themed decor and furnishings, provided a unique and immersive getaway. One of the best parts was sitting on the front porch swing, watching the Amish buggies go by and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. We were greeted with delicious coconut chocolate chip cookies, which were amazing and added a special touch to our stay. The location is very convenient, with several towns and attractions nearby. We stayed at the house after doing the five-star Buggy Lane Tours in Shipshewana and dining with an Amish family, which was unforgettable. The outdoor fire pit and seating area were great for evening relaxation, and they even included the firewood! My son and daughter loved interacting with the white donkey and horses, which was a highlight for them. The house was equipped with electricity and had games and toys for children, which kept my kids entertained throughout our stay. Additionally, they provided coffee, which was a wonderful touch to start our morning! The host had amazing communication and even helped us out when we accidentally left our kids' clothing in the dryer. This level of care and attention was over the top. If you’re looking for a place to relax and unwind, Lemon Hill is perfect. The attention to detail and serene environment made our stay truly special. I highly recommend this charming property!
