IU Getaway | Hot Tub, Fire Pit & 10 Min to Campus 3BR, 3BA
Just minutes from Indiana University, this peaceful Monroe County retreat offers the perfect home base for IU game days, campus visits, and Bloomington getaways. Tucked along a wooded hillside and surrounded by quiet countryside, the home provides a private setting while remaining only 10 minutes from the IU campus and about 20 minutes from Nashville in Brown County. The scenic uphill drive leads to a secluded property where guests can relax, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of southern Indiana.
Inside, the two-story home features a spacious and comfortable layout designed for gathering and relaxing. The main level includes a bright sunroom, a large eat-in kitchen, a dining room for shared meals, and a comfortable living room with a Smart TV and fiber internet. A full bathroom is also located on this level for convenience. Upstairs, all three bedrooms provide restful spaces for guests, including a king primary suite with a clawfoot tub and separate shower, along with a queen bedroom and a bedroom with two twin beds that share a hall bathroom. A small game area with air hockey and checker table adds a fun touch for families and groups.
Outdoor living adds even more to enjoy during a stay. A patio just off the living room features a private hot tub and charcoal grill, while the large yard includes a fire pit and a short wooded trail leading to scenic views beyond the trees. A covered deck near the barn offers additional space to relax outdoors, and an upper-level deck overlooks the yard and surrounding woods. With its quiet setting, spacious layout, and convenient location near Indiana University and Bloomington, this Monroe County getaway is an ideal place to stay for game weekends, campus visits, and relaxing trips to southern Indiana.

1. We brought our AWD vehicle and were thankful for it. There was slippage on the way down while it was raining.2. Bring night lights for your children. It is pitch black at night.3. The property management will send you documents that say you need to bring toilet paper, paper towel, etc. Just bring Kleenex, if you use it. They provide the rest.4. The sound carries to the 2nd floor from the 1st. We had sound machines for our children so we didn't disturb them after we put them down.5. Wifi went out while we were there and we had little reception, fyi.6. They have an ice maker.But really, so peaceful, clean, and a beautiful home. We played football on the lawn and took a walk down part of the trail. You can see the stars better than you can from in the city where we live so we took the children out at night to see the constellations. It's little things like that that made the trip more memorable.Thank you for sharing your home with us!
