Amish Acres (Nappanee, IN) a private attraction and restaurant-banquet facility is officially closing its doors following tonight's Dinner Theater presentation of "Beauty & the Beast", but not after entertaining their guests for one more weekend.
16 News Now learned how this one of a kind property that was sold by its 50-year owners is leaving its legacy.
In the same year Amish Acres celebrated their 50th year in business, the owners (Mr. Pletcher and family) decided to close their doors.
It's a Nappanee landmark that will be missed by those who grew up with it.
"Knowing some of the Amish in our community and knowing what a vital part they play in our economy--several of them have started businesses and started cottage shops around the area--the Amish culture is not going to go away. Having a destination for people around the nation to come to to learn about the lifestyle is certainly going to be missed,” said Nappanee Mayor Phil Jenkins.
