Indiana Highway 13...The Road To Small Town Treasures

Saturday, January 30, 2010 by Roxanne Turner
One of the joys of going to our Vacation Rentals Indiana Cabin can be found in the shopping stops we make along the way to the many stores we have discovered.  Of course, there are many ways to get to our North Webster Lake Cabin Rental and it will depend on what direction you are coming from.  One of our preferences is to travel Highway 13 North from Fishers, IN.  It takes you through Elwood, Wabash, North Manchester, Pierceton and then North Webster, IN and then on into Epworth Forest.   When you travel this path you not only get a taste of the small town Indiana flavor but find wonderful hidden treasures in each store. 

There are many shops that I could blog about but I wanted to make mention of a few of the favorites that come to mind. Kitchens Plus is located in Wabash, IN  and is a must visit. Do not let the name fool you as, yes they specialize in kitchens, but when they say PLUS... they mean it.  They have so much more!  This store is over flowing with a variety of unique items with emphasis on primitive home decor.  The owners and staff are extremely friendly and talented.  The store has an interior designer's touch and is creatively decorated with awesome displays. If you own a cabin or love primitive this is a great place to shop. 
 
In North Manchester, IN.. you will find a very quaint and friendly downtown.  You don't want to miss stopping in Nordman's Nook for gifts and the best homemade cookies, pies and cakes. Travel down a little further into town and you will find Home Again gift shop.  This is a favorite store for shoppers in the area.  Home Again offers an array of items from gifts, jewelry, home decor and children's toys.  The Owner greets each guest with individualized attention and has a good variety of quality products.
 
Once you enter Pierceton, IN you will find a wonderful antique shop called Sydow's Antiques.  The Owner is extremely knowledgeable about antiques and has very rare collectibles in his shop.
 
Upon entering our final destination, North Webster, IN you will find an array of shops in the heart of downtown. We are partial to this community and it's store's so it's hard to say that one shop is better than the other. 
  
We highly recommend North Webster's Ace Hardware Store and it's emphasis on seasonal items.  The Third Generation Antique Store is packed with antiques/collectibles and hidden treasures. The store owners are very friendly and the pricing is great.  Olson's Furniture Store is the perfect place to find inside cabin or lake cottage furnishings along with outdoor furniture and decor.  The Golden Mermaid is a must see for visitors or cabin renters as they have all sorts of lake memorabilia to buy for souvenirs. 
So if you are ever in this area or on your way to our "Take It Easy Cabin"... enjoy and savor your trip by stopping in one of these merchant's locations. 

Our Vacation Home Indiana Cabin is located just 2 1/2 hours from northern Indianapolis.  This Indiana Log Cabin views Lake Webster and the lake is known for Muskie Fishing.   Reserve a date today to enjoy the adventure of travels and shopping to our Lakefront Cabin Rental.
