Reunion
This was a great home for our small reunion of college friends. We were able to spread out or be together as much as we wanted. The home was very clean and the photos accurately reflected the layout and the condition of the home.

Fantastic place
It was a wonderful weekend….plenty of space and beautiful trees at the back of the house. Great porch w fire pit large enough for our big group. We’d stay there again in a minute and next time we’ll cram into 4 cars as instructed so that we can avoid the neighbors’ posting no parking signs on our cars on the street. 4 cars or fewer folks and this is the spot!!!

Great for family groups
Nice layout for group with separate living room and lower level den. Clean kitchen with enough dishes for large group. High chair and pack'n'play for the infant. Easy check out. A few things needed to make stay with young walking toddler easier. Overall good stay, nice walkable neighborhood close to updated parks, restaurants.

Great family home in a peaceful, lovely neighborhood.
Accommodations all very good. Space great for family time together and yet easy to find quiet spot as needed. Good access to shopping and excellent restaurants. However, a big problem occurred on check out, as door would not lock. Several calls, chat and texts (even RING doorbell) to host and VRBO customer service without response. Stressed and felt very responsible. Spent an hour on this before we felt we could depart when a neighbor, Jan, that I looked up stated she would follow through with host. Disappointed that VRBO help support failed and to date, no word on this communication breakdown.

We traveled from many places to visit aging great aunts in Bloomington and were delighted to find our VRBO home was a complete asset for this. The home is gorgeous! The arched interior doors; the wonderful screened in porch; the fabulously appointed kitchen, I could go on and on but suffice it to say we were thrilled to have found the perfect place to enjoy our time together!
