IU Homecoming

Property was clean and well equipped. This was our second stay. I am a 57 year old IU mom and needed the quiet. A neighbor complained to us that we were parked in rhe street in front of his house so we moved our car, which was the only negative. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect for a visit to IU

This house is in a perfect location for a visit to the IU campus. Lovely neighborhood. The house was plenty big for 4 of us to stay and everything was very organized in a binder and easy to figure out. Extra towels, check, extra TP, check, wifi easy, tv easy, comfy beds with extremely comfy bedding. The only thing that was a little different was the lack of a door between the primary bedroom and bath. My hubby likes his privacy so we had to work around that, but not a deal breaker. Travis is a great host!

Family weekend with College Student

We had both sets of grandparents in to see our daughter at college for the weekend and it was really nice to be able to have them all under one roof and dinners together at the table. All the amenities were great and well thought out. Very clean and everything worked well. We would definitely recommend. Travis was very responsive and answered my couple of questions quickly.

Enjoyed our stay

Enjoyed our time at this property. Accommodated our 6 people. We traveled over Christmas and New Years. It was nice to have the space for the kids to enjoy opening gifts and celebrating dinner as a family.The only item that was inconvenient was with the garbage. Unfortunately, if the garbage did not fit in the canister outside of the house, we were told to find a secondary location, either a local apartment complex or a dumpster behind a supermarket to deposit the extra garbage. A secondary garbage can would have solved the issue. Otherwise, no concerns. terrific location, good communication from host, etc. if I was in Indiana again, I would look to see if this location was available.
