Wonderful stay!

We stayed at Jodi’s property for a weekend birthday celebration for my brother, and it was wonderful! The house and backyard areas were perfect for our party of 10 to relax and hang out without feeling like we were on top of each other. The house was super well kept, clean, and Jodi made it extremely easy to prepare everything for check out and make it as smooth as possible. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend both the property and Jodi! 😊

Great place for a Purdue visit!

This was a perfect place for our group of 7 Purdue alum to get back to campus and take in a basketball game. The place was very clean with all the amenities you could want. A very short ride to campus and town. Would definitely stay here again (ideally when it is warmer and without snow to take advantage of the nice deck and pergola)!

Great location for what we were in town for (Golf).

Everything was great. The only thing needed was instructions as to which remote to use and how to access the local channels. We needed more than the national news channels.

2nd year in a row- another perfect stay

This is the 2nd year in a row a group of us have come to town for a reunion and to catch a Purdue men’s basketball game. Jodi’s place was the perfect size for our group of 10- very comfortable and full of amenities. Very close to campus and West Lafayette amenities too. Jodi is super responsive and helpful too. We hope to be back next year!

Wedding Weekend

Our daughter and her husband’s wedding party stayed two nights at The Gathering Place for wedding weekend! They were greeted with fresh bread and a beautiful place to stay! There was plenty of space for everyone, and they wanted for nothing. Our hostess, Jodi, was a fabulous communicator and was kind enough to allow our party to check in early the day of the rehearsal. This was our first experience with Vrbo, and after such a great experience it won’t be our last!

A great Thanksgiving in the perfect home

To start, my wife and I were considering becoming squatters we loved the house so much. Plenty of room, it was just 3 of us staying and my daughter, a student, stayed a night or 2. We really could of had 5 more people comfortably. My biggest regret is the weather was a bit cool to take advantage of the deck outside, which was beautiful. I would stay there again in a heart beat and would highly recommend.

Wedding weekend stay review

Jodi was great from the very beginning with consistent and clear communication. Everything leading up to our stay was very welcoming and walking into the house to find some cinnamon bread and a sweet note for us was really sweet and considerate since we were celebrating our wedding weekend with close family and friends! I would certainly recommend this spot for large groups. The host was very easy going and flexible, within means, especially compared to many others I’ve encountered. The experience made our special weekend go off without a hitch and I’m very grateful for that!

Host profile image

Welcome to West Lafayette, My Husband and I have enjoyed getting this vacation home ready for you, along with our children. We needed a family Project and since we don't live on a farm with animals we decided getting down and dirty with a remodel might help teach our children the value of hard work.
Memories are priceless, come make some at "The Gathering Place"!
