About this property

Charming 1912 Bungalow in Middlebury Indiana

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.

Another great stay at the Bungalow

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.

Lovely House!

My Mom and daughters and I stayed to celebrate my Mom’s 75th! We had an amazing weekend and we absolutely loved everything about this house! From the ribboned towels to the fresh baked welcome cookies to all the little extras! We can tell the owners put so much thought into the decor, stocking the kitchen and overall making us feel right at home. We will definitely be back!

Sweet place with lots of thought put into the amenities

Very pleasant and luxurious, and we want to come back for a more lengthy stay. It had so many thoughtful extras, such as latte machine, cookies, snacks, water bottles, kindling for the fire pit, full rack of Keurig coffees, games, and bathroom extras. The only drawback is that there is one tiny bathroom for the three upstairs bedrooms, but it is worth working it out amongst us.

Charming, beautiful & more than expected

The home is absolutely beautiful and a mixture of old and new…Beautiful woodwork, a unique entry, built-in shelving and huge closets, large bedrooms and a beautiful updated kitchen with everything you would need and more. Every room was perfectly decorated and gave such a welcoming feel. The hosts truly thought of everything and had so many wonderful touches and amenities. Great location and easy to find with shops and restaurants close by. We loved hearing and seeing the Amish buggies go right past the house. Already planning our next trip in warmer weather when we can enjoy the great backyard.

Great find!

We came to the area to attend a ND football game. What a gem we found in the bungalow. It has been updated beautifully. There are so many little touches that the owners have added. Yummy coffee bar and cookies, water in the fridge and SO MUCH MORE. The front porch was a great place to sit and watch the world go by (including the horse and buggies!) and there are so many comfy little reading corners. I regret not having time to try them all out. We are planning to come back and spend more time at the bungalow.

Our group of 5 ladies stayed in this lovely home for 4 nights in Sept. 2025. We loved sitting on the front porch with the horse and buggies going by. Everything about this home is so comfortable and inviting and beautifully decorated. From the delicious "Welcome" cookies, providing bottled water, coffee, etc to the comfortable sitting areas, large dining room table, and spacious bedrooms. The home was spotless, and Mike & Rose assisted with all of our trip planning questions and requests. We appreciated the upstairs bathroom which a lot of older homes do not have. It is on the small side, but it met our needs. We did not have time to enjoy the back yard with the fire pits, croquet, bags, etc., but it would be perfect for a family! It was a short drive to Shipshewana with beautiful countryside. You absolutely cannot go wrong by choosing this "Charming 1912 Bungalow." We hated to leave and if the opportunity ever arises, we will be back!

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.

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Rose

Host profile image
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.
