1. Trading Post Canoe, Kayak and Campground
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 20 reviews
Reviewed By Susan W - Fort Wayne, Indiana
A weekend getaway of camping and canoeing at a well-run facility. The equipment is clean and well-maintained. I was so happy to wear a clean life jacket that wasn't old & stained, as I've experienced elsewhere. The staff is friendly and helpful, even taking time to jump our car battery. Since we visited near the end of the season the campsites were available without a reservation. But reservations should be made if you camp on weekends or holidays because this is a popular site. A clean bath house with private showers and toilets was better than I expected. The river is beautiful and feels remote. We watched a deer swim across in front of us halfway through our canoe paddle. The 7 mile trip was just right for us 55+. Will visit again!

Me and my son made our 2nd visit. Lots of open space and the playground is top notch. Some of the tallest slides we have ever seen. Also have a smaller playground for younger kids
3. Dutch Creek Farm Animal Park

I was so surprised by this attraction! I lived 30 minutes from it, and didn't know about it until a friend recommended it. We have taken two trips there recently with different family members and they all loved it. Plan for 2 hours. Included in the entrance is a walk through the animal farm (you can enter all pens), you can hold rabbits and ducklings, and slide into the goat pen. The kids loved it. Then, your entrance includes a wagon ride and food through the exotic animals. There are zebras, ostriches, a musk ox, llamas, camels, elk, etc. The list goes on.
It costs about $13 for adults and $8 for children -- but you get a lot for that. Then bring a lot of $1 bills to buy carrots and baggies of fruit loops to feed the animals. Also, the $5 pony/horse rides are worth it, and the "train" pulled by a pony is a hoot for $1 a rider.

All kinds and flavors of popcorn, expertly displayed, with samples of a few. Fun stop on our first day in Shipshewana
5. Hostetler's Hudson Auto Museum
Overall Ratings
5 based on 114 reviews
World's largest collection of Hudson, Essex, & Terraplane automobiles. Ranging from 1909 to 1956 the collection houses some of the finest examples of the autos produced by the Hudson Automobile Company. Both pristine restorations and pristinely preserved examples walk you through time while you reminisce about America's love affair with the automobile.

My friend and I left our wives shopping and went to the Hudson museum, a great value for the price. They have a "cherry" Hudson from the first year they were made, 1916 I think, up to 1956. Nicely displayed and the guide was able to tell us about some of the cars.
6. Cook's Bison Ranch
Overall Ratings
4 based on 9 reviews
Reviewed By hereandthere053 - Fort Wayne, Indiana
This was an interesting afternoon visit but not worth the money charged. A covered wagon pulled by a tractor takes you out into a field where you are safely able to view the herd and hand-feed the friendlier cows and calves who come up to the wagon. Seeing the bison that close was really neat and watching the bull chase after his chosen cow was even better - the sounds he made and the way he stuck out his great pointy tongue was fascinatingly gross, but hard not to watch. They were all surprisingly large and gave me a great appreciation for the bravery of the native American hunters who rode among the herd on their relatively small horses and primitive hunting tools. The children on the wagon were especially thrilled. There's not much there except the wagon ride, though. Some pricey frozen buffalo and a few souvenirs inside the main building and a monstrous stuffed buffalo head with which to snap a picture or two were about the extent of the offerings.
7. Blue Gate Theatre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1 reviews
The Blue Gate is best place for evening entertainment in Shipshewana and is fast becoming a household name in the Midwest, featuring over 280 shows per year with 75 different performers, 3 hit musicals and much more. This year will feature the new musical "The Home Game" based on the new book by Martha Bolton. Also enjoy concerts by multiple Grammy winning performers, hilarious comedians, Southern Gospel favorites and other family-friendly entertainment.

The environment in this Blue Gate Theater has a very professional look to the place. It is easy to set up for large groups or easy to separate for smaller groups. The equipment and stage present also makes the groups performing or speaking able to operate very easily it seems from my observation.
8. Pigeon River Fish and Wildlife Area
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3 reviews
Reviewed By InspiredSailor - Pleasant Lake, Indiana
This area is composed of all sorts of terrain and covers a very large area by Midwest standards. Pigeon River passes through this property and is a popular area to kayak, hike and hunt. Hunting is strictly controlled and you must check in with the ranger station. When it is not hunting season the casual hiker may enter but must park in designated areas - to disregard is to receive a ticket or more as it is well patrolled. A beautiful area well worth a look see. We used to walk there often in years past. However, if you are unfamiliar with the area it would be best to check in at the ranger station. It would be easy to get lost if you do not have a compass to travel in a straight line.
9. Menno-Hof Mennonite - Amish Visitor Center
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 259 reviews
Amish and Mennonite museum and visitor center.
Reviewed By goseedo - South Dakota
The Menno-Hof Visitor Center is a superb way to learn about Anabaptist principles, the beginnings (and persecution) of the Amish, Hutterites, and Mennonites nearly 500 years ago, and how they made their way to America. There is a imaginative mix of teaching tools -- videos, reading, displays, semi-interactive rooms, guided, on your own -- which makes learning easy (albeit some are not oriented for children). The emphasis is on the history of the Anabaptists and is from their perspective; there is no focus on current living styles, although there is an Amish home/kitchen display at the end of the tour.
We spent more than the anticipated 1.5 hours as we were quite fascinated by the stories and read most of the placards.
Parking was easy. Guides were friendly. Admission cost was very reasonable and is listed, along with hours, on the website. Always closed Sundays. Highly recommend if you are interested in history, religions, and cultures, and wish to understand others' beliefs, even as they may differ from your own.

Reviewed By Sweetie27265 - High Point, North Carolina
Three floors of interesting stores and restaurants, but there are elevators at each end of the building. I spent a lot of time in Lolly's Fabric Shop. Great source of quilting supplies. Lots of groups of women in there shopping together and having a great time.
