May 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quick get away Three ladies getting away for a long weekend found a perfect oasis. This is a beautiful, quiet, property with a large private backyard. Perfect to enjoy time outside with the fire pit, yard games, a cook out. This place looks exactly like the pictures, everything is spotless and looks new. We had no problems getting checked in or out and our host was promptly available to message. We all enjoyed the beds and having our own rooms was so nice to relax. The game room in the garage was a great assess !! What a nice way for us to have fun and activities without spending extra money. We were not familiar with Evansville but found this to be a pretty close drive to everywhere we wanted to go. It was easy to hop on the highway. We are midwesterners, so we are familiar with driving everywhere. Places we ate and enjoyed; Gerst (German food and a fun environment), Pangea kitchen (yummy pizza and deep dish), Big Top drive in (classic old drive in, giant sundaes, yummy burgers and grippo fries), Frankie’s (delicious breakfast), River city coffee (yummy coffee and adorable gift shop). We also enjoyed shopping and walking around by the river. A great meet up place to relax. Would stay again ! ##### Mary B. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joshua R.

It was a quick drive to the Ford Center for a concert. There was a little hiccup with the key code, but the owner was quick to respond and fix the problem. ##### Cindy G.
