Stayed here for several nights for a family getaway with kids and grandkids. Excellent experience! The house was clean and kitchen stocked with all the necessary items to prepare our meals. Lots of parking. The highlight was the pool for the grandkids along with the game room. The movie theater setup in the basement was wonderful. Brian was easy to work with. Easy access to Bloomington. I highly recommend and we certainly plan on returning!!

Great property!

This place was perfect for our needs. We were celebrating my wifes 40th bday and had 5 IU alums in our group who wanted to spend time on campus. It is about 15 min away. The house has so much to do between the pool, hot tub, game rooms and movie theater! Theres also nice living areas and a patio to just sit and enjoy your company. Brian, the host, was also very great. The house, pool/hot tub, patio were clean and welcoming. Really no complaints. All of my guests were also impressed with the house and offered me many compliments for finding this .

Our stay at Brian's place was short but the property and all the amenities made it extra fun. We will definitely rent again, it is surrounded by beautiful trees and you can head all kind of birds. The pool being inside made it a lot better, property was so big and private.

Pitfalls and Highlights

WARNING: Anyone with small children, be sure pool is tested and shown to be at safe chlorine level before using. We enjoyed many features of this house but had a big problem with reactions to pool chemicals that were either too strong or not added far enough in advance of visit. All adults and children had respiratory irritation, watering eyes and sneezing in pool area, at first. Toddlers had coughing and wheezing for 24-48 hours after first swim. Reactions cleared up in 3-4 days, as chlorine dissipated. The owner tried to address, but was faced with his own medical issues and closed pool chemical suppliers. The hot tub was perfect. This property is under reconstruction, after damage from a fallen tree a few months ago. Very nice property owner is working hard to rebuild, but there were small unfinished items throughout and messy areas in side and back yards. Large front yard and patio area were very nice. Many excellent features include a wonderfully outfitted 2-story game room and movie room, gas grill and large, furnished patio, many bathrooms with excellent water pressure and hot water, 2 laundry areas, multiple large TV screens and luxury appliances in the kitchen (although the garbage disposall didn't work). So, if pool chlorine tests safe, this is a great place to stay right now if you are not fussy about some unfinished landscaping, woodwork, switchplates and the like, and promises to be excellent when all the work is done.

Perfect Girls' Weekend

We rented this house for a girls getaway from St. Louis. The house couldn't have been more perfect for us! I've probably rented 50 homes across the country over the past 30 years. I can honestly say that this was the most well stocked house I've ever stayed in. It was clean and loaded with things to do. There were beautiful golf courses nearby, the neighborhood was lovely, and a day trip to Nashville, IN was perfect for 6 ladies! Brian, the owner, couldn't have been nicer, and was quick to respond to communication. There was a problem with the lock box when we arrived. Brian returned my call within 2 minutes and immediately drove an hour to get there and get it taken care of as quickly as he could. Downtown Bloomington was minutes away and provided plenty to do while we waited. By the time we grabbed a bite to eat, the problem was resolved. Finally, the trees is the area were so colorful, it was incredible. If your looking for a place in the midwest to enjoy beautiful fall foliage, i would highly recommend staying here. Of course, it would be a great place to stay any time of the year! Thank you, Brian!

Great stay

One of the few places that looks just like the picture. They had everything we needed to cook, plenty of towels for the pool. The decor and hospitality reminded me of a very nice hotel. We had some hiccups but the owner/manager was readily available and addressed all issues, as best he could. The communication and willingness to help was wonderful. And we were able to enjouy our stay. We will definitely look to book this place again.

Great getaway with lots onsite to do

Our group enjoyed the game rooms, pool, hot tubs and outdoor space. Close location to restaurants and shopping but we spent almost all our time at the property. One of the best stocked rentals we have experienced (towels-bath and pool, kitchen essentials and gaming entertainment)!! Beds are comfortable and rooms are theme decorated. Separate spaces are quiet. In need of a good deep clean in a few spots and a few repairs but nothing unacceptable. Thanks Brian for your responsiveness the day of check in and an enjoyable property!

Lots of fun

The house is setup very nicely. Nice size couch in the family room, large dining room table, a TV in every room & wifi throughout the house. Large heated indoor pool with a small 2 person hot tub indoors & large 5 person hot tub outside. I really enjoy relaxing in an outdoor hot tub in the winter. The garage has been converted into a game room with a pool table and other casino games with a space heater. Basement is it's own suite, bedroom & full bath with another pool table and arcade game with tons of old school games. Plenty of towels. Quick responses from the owner when asking questions. The master suite has a large bathroom with a large shower & it's own washer/dryer. A 2nd second washer/dryer is off the kitchen as well. In the winter it should be listed as a 4 bedroom/3 bathroom house, the 5th bedroom & 4th bathroom over the garage were unusable due to frozen pipes. Restaurants and grocery are all within 10 minutes of the house. Door Dash is available also. We had 8 people(2 families) the 4 bedrooms worked out ok. Would've been more convenient if there were bunk beds. Seems like a lot of groups stay at this house according to other reviews. Bunk beds make sleeping arrangements easier. We would stay here again.

Overall nice stay

The check in process was over all pretty quick. The other half of our party arrived a little earlier than we did and apparently the house was still being cleaned and met the owner (they believe it was the owner, his looked like the person in a picture on the wall inside) so you know it does get cleaned. The house offers a lot to do, maybe just a little too much. There were TV's in nearly every room, but we weren’t able to find a couple of the remotes. The upstairs bedroom really isn't usable yet. They're doing renovation in that area so some corner molding is missing, a switch plates is missing and insulation is pretty bad, that room is freezing. There is a space heater up there, do not turn it off. That bathroom also didn't have any hot water, the line is not connected. I mentioned that to the owner during our stay but they didn't respond to that. We moved to the basement room for the rest of the trip. The closet in the basement is a standalone cabinet, unfortunately the bottom is falling out of it. Mentioned to owner, they didn't respond to that part. The inversion table was a weird find, but really appreciated. The space heater in that room tripped the power bar while trying to warm the room up the first time and the power bar was in the back of fireplace housing so it was a little hassle to get to. Don't turn the heater all the way up, lesson learned. The pool was very nice. Vinyl inlay was in good shape and the water was clear and warm. There are numerous notes around the house to keep doors closed and not mess with the temperature in the room or the fans due to humidity, they are 100% on point. The doors, windows and skylights are taking abuse from all that condensation. The door to the back door was a little difficult to understand how to lock; the note they have on there is useful so it only took a couple minutes to figure out how it works. Provided pool noodles and goggles, thanks! The kitchen has tons of plates, cups, bowls and kitchen utensils for cooking and entertaining. The dishwasher wasn't fully installed (pulled out into the kitchen a couple of inches, obviously not actually mounted) and the note in the "Quirks about the House" notebook says it only works on a one-hour delay. Not sure if that's an old note, it started fine for us. Running out of trash bags and paper towels may be a thing, was made to feel "messy" when we asked for more, there weren't spare rolls. Drove to Wal-Mart to buy ourselves. Overall a positive experience.
