Oak Bend Cottage is located in the heart of a rural Amish community. The people are very friendly and they look out for each other if there is a need. You will feel like that the time has turned back 75 years in the neighborhood. In the morning you will see children walking to school with their lunch boxes swing as they chatter and then they return in the same manner in the afternoon. The Amish school is located approximately a quarter miles across the field.

quiet getaway
The home was perfect for our needs for the week. Thank you for no TV lol. Soooo very quiet which is what we needed. We are familiar with the surrounding towns and mountains so navigating to our destinations and coming back for the night was the perfect distance. The fresh milk, eggs, bread and coffee was a wonderful surprise! Thank you!

Back in time
The cottage was nice and clean, my husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. The view was amazing nothing but mountains and farmland. It was so peaceful and quiet and nice to just sit back on the porch and watch the animals and the horse and buggies and the armish kids ride their scooters .

COZY AND COMFORTABLE STAY ON AMISH FARM
It was very clean and comfortable. Nice modular home. Only suggestion would be to fix screens in windows and door, would have loved to have the windows opened on the cool days. Nice to have laundry in unit. Live plants and games, were an added bonus.

Quiet Retreat
We really enjoyed our time at the lovely Oak Bend Cottage. Even though the weather was unseasonably warm, we still enjoyed having our meals on the deck where we set up the provided table and chairs. We appreciated the laundry facilities and especially the clothes line so we didn't have to add any heat from the dryer. We loved the quiet countryside and the company of the cows and horse close by. Cooking for three teens and two adults was a little tight, but we managed. Everything was very clean when we arrived, and we were greeted warmly by Katie and two of her sweet girls. May all who stay be filled with peace and joy at this quiet retreat.
