It's close to different hikes, and the lake. The food at the restaurant is so yummy. The hosts were so hospitable and responded quickly to our inquiries. Can't wait to visit again. ##### Lauren H. ### 6/10 Okay #### leigh l. Apr 22, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Work Retreat The property was nice. The internet was not sufficient, unfortunately, for all of us to be online and work. We had a few issues that the landlord assisted with. ##### leigh l.

It was a perfect set up for our bedroom and bathroom needs. We would have enjoyed more TV’s. Only 1 TV for the whole house. This was a damper on the stay. The host was excellent. Very easy to contact and willing to help with any problems. ##### Rick G.

Jun 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Plenty of space and beautiful view The house has 5 areas with a bathroom where different family groups can sleep. It also has 3 refrigerators. The view of the lake and trees is beautiful and peaceful. There are some places you have to go up and down steps to get to them and three of the bedroom groupings are upstairs. ##### Beth P. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Beata L. Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Location, listing accuracy #### Vacation of surprises This is an interesting place. The huge table in the dining room was perfect for my family of 12 and we really enjoyed the patio area. However, we were unaware until we arrived about the shower being not usable in the main bathroom and another bedroom upstairs having non-working ceiling fans which meant no air in that room. Because of the excessive rain that week, one downstairs bedroom had soaked carpeting - which we understood that situation, But workmen kept coming into the house ( without knocking on the door) for the next 3 days to check on the fans drying the carpet. That was very uncomfortable for my family. We still got to enjoy Lake Monroe and had some fun there - it just could have been so much better. ##### Beata L.

Feb 7, 2024 #### Happy Campers (Minus the camping) We rented the Lodge for a weekend to have a fun staycation. This place surpassed all our expectations. The main dining area has a wall of windows with an incredible view of Lake Monroe. We had family over and we were all able to comfortably sit for dinner. The kids loved the massive bedrooms & the hot tub! There was plenty of room for dance parties, building forts and crafts! The den provided a cozy ambience with the electric fireplace. We cozied up with a bottle of wine to watch our favorite show! If you’re looking for a nice getaway, the lodge is definitely your place to stay! We will stay again! ##### Sara P.

Oct 12, 2024 #### Family Vaca The lodge had a fantastic configuration for a family stay with children, adults and seniors. There were plenty of towels, bedding, kitchen utensils, etc. Loved the fire pit and hot tub and common areas. All 16 of us could eat together, play together, and hike together. Great space! ##### Michele B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Genii W. Oct 5, 2024 ##### Genii W.

The View is spectacular. The accommodations were very comfortable for all of us. We enjoyed the space sooo much that we chose to stay at the Lodge our full time. The food catered in by Scenic View was amazing. Highly recommend this Lodge in Bloomington. Large groups are very comfortable and well appointed. Again, the view is spectacular. The sunrise can take your breath away. Great way to start a day. Great place to gather. ##### Ellen B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary B.

Ages ranged from 3 months old to 65. It was a perfect set up so everyone could have their own space and bathroom. Very clean. Beautiful setting! Very pleased! ##### Mary B.

Dec 19, 2023 #### Perfect for a large family Celebrated our family Christmas with our 5 grown children and their families. The home fit us perfectly. Each family had their own large room with it's own bathroom, which is important with a large number of young grandchildren. It's difficult to tell in the listing, but we had our own separate apartment suite that was attached to the main house. It was a welcome sanctuary after a long day of togetherness. Plenty of beds and rooms to gather. The host was amazing! Extremely helpful accommodating to our requests. The view from the home is spectacular! It seems remote, but is really close to everything Bloomington has to offer. Can't say enough good things. Everyone in our group loved the home. Thank you Jessica! ##### Kent H.
