Travel Vlog \\ Weekend Getaway in Shipshewana, Indiana \\ Amish Country!
Hope you enjoy a look at our first weekend getaway of 2020. This was in mid-January on a rainy weekend, but we enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. There was nothing on the agenda except R & R in a little town that we enjoy visiting in northern Indiana. We usually make it up here about every other year for a quiet weekend, away from the busyness of normal life.
Here is the beautiful hotel where we like to stay:

Shipshewana is a great place! I grew up there and my mom used to work at Yoders. It’s been many years since we lived there, it’s changed a lot since I was a kid! Great video!

I’m a Hoosier born and raised 😀 We live a good stretch from Shipshewana though. Sure love to visit!
I live super close so it’s weird to know that some people don’t know about Amish culture
I love to go to all the quilt stores up there. I love the grocery store also. What is the store in front of the flea market that has all the cheese and sausages? We had a place on tippy for about 12 years. I miss the area. The kids quit coming up and it was just too much for us to care for.

We're considering getting an air bnb in shipshewana to visit amish country. But possibly wanted to stay at the blue gate garden inn! We have a toddler so trying to find the best option for our room situation

We have never gotten an Airbnb there but have stayed at the Blue Gate many many times. We’ve also stayed at the Farmstead Inn. It is also very nice. I think the Blue Gate is our favorite. It is a huge place with fun accommodations (ice cream parlor etc) and a nice outdoor fire pit relaxation area that we like. Hope you have a blast!
