Beautiful property and home, excellent location from boat dock. Enjoyed the accommodations and the wildlife. Host was always available to help and check in process was a breeze! Fully stocked kitchen with everything you would need for cooking/grilling out. Plenty of room for a large group/family gathering. Would definitely love to go back!!
Love this place it’s always very clean plenty of room for everybody to spread out and have their own space. Will definitely rent again great experience
Perfect location to watch the eclipse. Loved the unit, although layout a little weird but would definitely stay there again. Loved all the extras that they provided, the games and snacks.
A group of four families comfortably stayed at both properties for a long weekend and had a blast. We went for an IU football game and spent the other days on Lake Monroe and at the pool. Close to head to campus (20-25 min)and the lake, and a great set up for a large group. Plenty of beds and common area to hang. We loved having the long dining table for meals and outdoor space for the evening. Paula was easy to work with and very responsive. All in all, a great weekend.
The property was awesome. It was clean It was everything that our family expected and we were definitely going to stay there again next year. Thanks Paula you’ve got a great place thanks Jake.
No electricity first several hours due to a major windstorm but it was a family reunion so we preserved and it was totally worth it. All guests enjoyed the accommodations. Would certainly book again if needed.
For several years we have rented the Overlook for our family Thanksgiving. Our family enjoys the spacious table for dinners, billiard and game tables for exciting competitions and large TV room for watching sports. The kitchen is complete and the beds are comfortable! The location is fantastic! Our host is always quick to answer if there are questions. Our family loves staying at The Overlook!
This unit is everything that it was advertised as. All of the amenities are first class. This is a tremendous unit for a large group setting. We will use this unit again without hesitation.
Lovely property for a family gathering. Plenty of room and a nice large patio area to soak up the sun. Paula was an excellent host and helped me greatly as I tried to accommodate the travel arrangements of family travelling across the country. Easy check-in/out, plenty of towels, comfortable beds. House is also incredibly baby friendly- no stairs and things for baby to get in to. This was an extra bonus for us as we had our two year old with us. thank you, Paula! xo
We rented this property for a long weekend to celebrate my mother’s 50th birthday! It was spacious but yet set up to encourage togetherness. We had so much fun hanging out here and was surprised at how well stocked it was with things. I would definently recommend for any long weekend stay with family or friends!
We really cannot say enough about this property. It was MORE than accommodating! It had an open floor plan that made it so easy foe our group to function and have fun. We enjoyed playing pool, visiting, and eating together. We loved the sitting room, so cozy! We were very busy as our kids go to IU and we had several events. We were able come home and wind down and feel at home. The hosts were so gracious to provide some snacks, which we DID enjoy. The bedrooms were beautiful and beds comfortable. We had enough bathrooms too. We love the visits from the deer, it just made our stay even sweeter. We plan to come back and make plans to golf and enjoy the outdoor deck. One family on our group went to the restaurant at the golf course next door and raves about it. Thank you so much !
It was a great set up for our family’s Thanksgiving. Plenty of room, comfy beds, kitchen well stocked, owner responsive in answering inquiries. A little noise from upstairs tenant which can’t be helped. Perfect for large families or large group.
I almost selected only three stars for "accuracy of online listing" because the property was even better than the listing. Our family loved staying at the Overlook and Overloft. We got both for a family wedding in the area. Paulette was so easy to work with, and the spaces allowed us all to be able to gather comfortably.
It was great! From the time we left our house to the time we left the stay. The house was plenty big enough and had everything we needed. We did not go to the swimming pool because the sign said no guest. I can see that being a problem with a family with kids. Other than that it was great.
The property was very clean and well maintained in a beautiful setting. Several deer visited us and were fun to watch. We spent most of our time on the fabulous deck, but the pool table was a big hit as well. The kitchen was fully stocked and there were plenty of towels (not always the case elsewhere) and other amenities. The upstairs apartment was not very clear in the listing, but we had considerate co-tenants so it was not an issue. Highly recommend!
