    Great staff! I only stayed at the hotel for a few hours because something came up and I had to check out unfortunately. Staff was super friendly and I was really disappointed I mussed the breakfast

    The room was clean. They had lots to choose from on their breakfast buffet and they will make you an omelette if you want. The hot tub and pool area were clean and well maintained.

    This was our first time at the Inn. The hotel and rooms were very clean. The room we were in had a small kitchen area with refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker, which was very nice and useful. The complimentary breakfast was awesome. I have never stayed at a hotel that had that variety of breakfast items. We will definitely will stay there again

    The room was clean and very comfortable. The location was very convenient to the concert that was right next door. After the concert, sitting outside around the fire ring was nice.

    We loved the convenience of being at Blue Gate Hotel as we attended a show next door at the performance center that night. Just a quick walk across the parking lot to our show. There are spacious common areas to enjoy and the breakfast was great! Made to order omelets and the food offered was definitely a notch above chain hotel breakfasts! The grounds and inside the hotel were very clean and beautifully decorated for Fall. Our room itself was ok, but between the air conditioning unit & maybe the frig, it wasn't a real quiet night of trying to sleep. Definitely enjoyed Shipshewana and the clip clop sound of horses & buggies traveling by anytime we were outdoors.

    Very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool. Played pin ball machines for a quarter a game. Such fun. Excellent breakfast buffet. The best of any hotel. Cute decor all over the hotel and grounds for fall. If we has more time we would have enjoyed time around the outside fire pit.
