Escape to Heron's Perch, where nature’s beauty and modern comforts meet. Nestled on the tranquil edge of Shipshewana Lake, this charming retreat is just moments away from the heart of town and Pumpkinvine trail, offering the perfect balance of serenity and convenience. Whether you’re planning a girls' getaway, a couples retreat, or a family vacation, this home accommodates up to 11 guests across three well-appointed bedrooms. Enjoy the town, then retreat to the breathtaking sunsets of the lake. Use the Starlink Wi-FI if you need to stay connected. This thoughtfully designed property is the perfect spot for your next girls trip, couples retreat, or family vacation to Shipshewana. It is a 2-3 minute drive into town (and just a 3 minute bike ride to connect to the scenic Pumpkinvine bike trail.) Bring your boat and fishing pole if you'd like and tether it to the dock. This side of the lake is known for its breathtaking sunsets, great fishing, and ample bird watching. The outdoor space has been thoughtfully planned with ample seating around the firepit for sunset s'mores and stories. There's also an outdoor table and seating for 4, as well as an outdoor sofa and chairs - all under a covered porch. You'll have access to outdoor amenities (like 2 kayaks, canoe, cornhole game, washers game, croquet, a telescope, firepit, BBQ) so you can fully enjoy the beauty of being by the lake. Parking is just outside the front door and should accommodate 4 cars easily. Your Shipshewana adventure begins at this 3-bedroom house. Inside, you'll find 1 king bed, 2 queen beds, and 3 cozy sofa beds for a wonderful night's sleep. With 2 bathrooms equipped with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, hair dryer, and shower, you'll feel right at home. Enjoy the beautiful living spaces to play games with the family. Use the well-appointed kitchen to snuggle in for a home cooked meal, or the outdoor charcoal grill. End the evening around the large fire pit by making smores and memories as you watch a breathtaking sunset (on clear nights). You're sure to make fantastic memories with a stay at our place. The master bedroom has 3 walls of windows to take in the lake view, a king sized bed, as well as a large comfy chair that is perfect for watching the morning swans or herons - OR - to pull out as a twin bed if you need the extra sleeping space. Bedroom #2 has a queen bed. Bedroom #3 has a queen bed and small TV. Upstairs living room has a new-style pull-out sofa bed and 65 inch TV. Please note that both TVs are ready for your app-hookup. While they do not have "cable TV" they do offer the free TV apps (like Crackle and PlutoTV). Downstairs has a well appointed kitchen, a table to seat 8, and 4 stools for counter seating. There is a second living room area downstairs overlooking the lake with another sofa-bed. A number of games are available for indoor fun. While here, you can enjoy the entire property. Please note that for access to the kayaks or canoe, a waiver must be signed. We can refer you to nearby rentals if you are interested in renting a pontoon boat or E-bikes (which are a GREAT option for outdoor fun on Sundays, when many shops are closed). We absolutely love this area (and this lake) and are happy to provide you with our "favorites" if you need ideas. It is essential that you register with the correct number of guests, so that the full needed bedding and towels will be set out and available to you. As this property is in a tranquil private area, we have a "no parties" policy to be kind and respectful to all neighbors. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Hob - Microwave - Oven ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94780000/94774600/94774571/c3759479.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Songbird Haven, 3 min from town, & Pumpkinvine.
