Filled with character, charm and history. Once the home of the Kenneth Krider family. He played an integral role in Krider Nurseries and established the Krider World's Fair Garden on Bristol Street. With 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, we comfortably sleep up to 8 guests. The front porch, a delightful spot. The shaded backyard, a peaceful retreat. This blend of history, comfort, and modern amenities, a great place to stay. We are 8 mi. from Shipshewana, and 27 mi. from Notre Dame.

One of THE BEST places we’ve ever stayed. Our host went over the top to make our stay comfortable. We had plenty of room, cookies upon arrival, beautiful back yard, comfortable rooms, great location. Just loved everything. Booking Shaina for next year!
Beautiful older home that was very clean and tastefully decorated. Very comfortable furniture and accommodations. Roomy bedrooms and living areas. Large kitchen well equipped with complimentary coffee and delicious cookies. We enjoyed our stay immensely.
It was an easy choice picking to stay here again. A block away from West On Warren and very convenient for our work trip. Plenty of room for us! Appreciate all of the included amenities and the cookies are the best!
Perfect location to stay as we had 4 adults from work visiting RV Factories in the area. The location of this property, cleanliness, and modern updates would give it 5 STARS.
The property was amazing and easy to access. They had a lot of little touches to make our stay very enjoyable. Even molasses cookies and water available upon check in with all kinds of coffee choices.
This vrbo was the best experience we have ever had.. darling place for our sibling family weekend..it felt like home , clean , cute and cant wait to make a return vist..
Best girls trip ever! This rental and the owners’ attention to detail, their helpfulness, and hospitality made a great trip even better. Mike & Rose went above & beyond and I would highly recommend their home to everyone. Perfect place to stay!
We so much enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful, comfortable, and spotless. Rose responded immediately to any questions. The extra touches - a coffee bar, extra toothbrushes, cookies from a local bakery to name just a few - are so thoughtful. We’re already planning to book again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful bungalow. The house is very clean and the owners have thought of every single detail. We hope to return sometime next year for another visit. Highly recommend this property. Thanks for the cookies! They were delicious.
This home was very nice: spacious living areas and bedrooms, shaded back yard with a deck and picnic table, updated kitchen, and more. The hosts were responsive to my questions and requests.
Beautiful Home! Love the front porch. Short walk to shops in downtown Middlebury. Short drive to Shipshewana. My Sisters and I really Enjoyed our stay.
Most amazing home away from home house I’ve ever stayed at! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, was exactly as described in the listing (and then some!). Quiet neighborhood, cute shops, close to hardcore shopping in Shipshewana. Would stay again in a heartbeat!
House was beautifully decorated and super clean. Close to town and walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Short drive to other towns nearby for shopping . Owners great to deal with and ease of communication. Plan to stay again next time we visit the area.
This was our second stay at the Bungalow, and we enjoyed it as much our first. My group of 8 were traveling to attend a Notre Dame football game and stayed over the weekend. Our experience with the property and the host was excellent. There was great communication, attention to detail, beautifully decorated spaces and even some extras like coffee and cookies that made us fell so welcomed. My entire group wanted to stay longer so we could enjoy more of the property and the surrounding area.
Rose and Mike leave no stone unturned as the perfect hosts! We stay in several vacation properties a year, and these two pay so much attention to every little detail. This darling cottage home lends a feel of luxury in the heart of Amish country!

About the host
Hosted by Mike and Rose
My husband is a semi-retired Agronomist and I am a Sr. Sales Director with Mary Kay. We both have an eye for detail and love to host, whether in our home or in our STR properties. We also have 2 STR properties in Hilton Head and 1 in Sisters Oregon. They are all unique and different and we enjoy them all.
Why they chose this property
My husband and I, we purchased this bungalow in July of 2022. We fell in love with it and have lovingly updated it and filled it with items that we love. It is a fairly large, open house with lots of interesting built-ins and unique closet space, along with beautiful, original windows upstairs. It was built in 1912, and is amazinly open on the main floor. We are located in downtown Middlebury, 1 block from the pumpkin vine nature trail, where you can ride your bike or hike to Shipshewana or Goshen. Shipshewana is about an 8 mile drive. Goshen is about an 8 mile drive as well. Notre Dame is about a 27 drive.
What makes this property unique
I love our front porch. It takes me back to days of my childhoodl, where we would gather on the swing and talk and laugh with our neighbors. I love our back yard. It is shaded, semi private, with a deck, lights, grill and adirondack chairs to relax in. I love the serinity of our home. I hope that when you enter, you will feel the quiet comfort of knowig that this is a place you can shake off all the worries of the outside world.
