established in 2022
Wooden Shoe Cottage was renovated and opened in 2022, but was built in 1967. This home had been dearly loved by several generations of a local family until it came into our hands at the end of 2021.
Our goal was to be able to preserve some of the history and beauty of the original home while also bringing it into the 21st century. Many of our antique touches have come from near and far (some items all the way from Massachusetts!) to add some character and history to the home.
DeMotte is a small town in Indiana that is just far enough from the city to have convenient access, while still maintaining the peace and quiet of the countryside. DeMotte is home to a sizeable population of families with Dutch heritage, including my own. This inspired us to name our home Wooden Shoe Cottage. The simplicity of life in this farming community is part of the charm and we hope you embrace it as long are you’re here.
We look forward to your stay.
