*Owner is on site for all retreats and events to make sure all your needs are catered to. Yoder Haus is more than just a Bed & Breakfast, all meals, snacks and beverages are included with your stay. You will consider yourself pampered with home-cooked meals, door prizes and giftbags stuffed with goodies. Homecooked Amish-meal recipes are prepared in the Yoder Haus kitchen are provided for our overnight guests. Fresh-laundered linens are line-dried in the fresh, sunny country air for your home-away-from-home retreat. Upon your departure, no one goes home empty handed without a little something for the trip home.
Yoder Haus is more accommodating to the smaller, personal gatherings, great for private parties. At Yoder Haus, there is no hassle of organizing or making reservations for large groups of crafters. You may book in groups up to 6 with a 3 minimum required.
The Yoder Haus is a charming, 2-bedroom, former Old-Order Amish home filled with hardwood floors, lace, quilts, and accommodates 6 guests. We have added power, lighting, air conditioning and heating to this home. We are within a short walking distance to downtown Yoder's quilt shops, restaurants and gift shops. Demelia's Quilt Shop is just a few steps from our front door.
BEDROOMS: Two bedrooms are located on the main floor: The Lilac Room has 3 twin beds with north and west views of beautiful sunsets, lilac bushes and strawberry fields. The Rose Room also has 3 twin beds but with north and east views overlooking rose garden, strawberry, grape and blackberry fields. Vintage linens give these rooms that special homey feel and touch of long-ago days. Guests will find Amish homemade chocolates on their pillows from a nearby dairy farm.
CRAFT ROOM: Each guest has her own 6-foot worktable with the Sylvania Craft Light. The Sylvania Craft Light has a more even light output across the color spectrum, unlike the Ott light, which has "spikes" of higher light output at certain colors and create a more reddish light than the Sylvania Craft Light. We provide a large cutting table and pressing area with iron for quilters. For scrapbookers and card-makers, a worktable with a Cricut Expressions die cutter with a library of cartridges. Choose one of the many CD audiobooks in our library to listen to while you craft. Selection includes fiction and non-fiction stories related to pioneer women, Kansas interests and light romance. Or, feel free to bring your own. Giftbags stuffed with craft-related goodies at each table.
SCRAPBOOK STORE We do have a small on-site store for necessities like adhesives, cardstock, printed papers, stickers and page kits.
DINING ROOM: Our large antique oak dining table accomodates up to 8 guests. Meals, drinks and snacks are provided. Our overnight guests are treated to home-cooked Amish recipe meals prepared in the Yoder Haus kitchen. Catered meals are provided by Bull's Eye and Carriage Crossing for our day guests.
TEA ROOM: Snuggle up with a quilt in our Tea Room while you enjoy refreshments and fresh-baked snacks fresh from Yoder's Farmers Market and by Rose's Pastries. This room has a hoop quilting frame for hand-quilting. Browse through the quilting and scrapbooking magazines for inspiration and ideas. You will also find baskets full of varioius crafts, such as crocheting, knitting, embroidery, cross-stitch and needlepoint projects. You may find ongoing projects destined to be donated to the Mennonite Relief Sale, or purchase a project to keep for yourself. This room is the sunniest in the home and was used by the former owner as her quilting room.
QUILTING SUPPLIES & FABRICS: Demelia's Quilt Shop, Nuts & Bolts, local Amish-owned Country Variety Store.
U-PICK FRUIT FARM: Strawberries, grapes, blackberries and raspberries will be ready for picking Spring of 2009. Reserve early for the height of strawberry-picking season, which is mid-May through mid-June.
