Great location for Butler events

We were in town for our daughter’s sorority ladies day and couldn’t be happier with the location of this house. So convenient with running back and forth to the campus.

A solid stay

We had been planning a small get away to Indy with my mom and my kids over spring break. After looking at our options we are SO HAPPY we selected the Butler House. It allowed space but also a place to play and be as a family. The location was great! Walking over on campus the first night and visiting Hinkle was so fun. Our second night there was severe weather and the comfort of the basement was so helpful as we waited out the tornado warning with a sleeping 3 year old and a nervous 9 year old. When we got back to our house the 3 year old ask if we could stay at the blue house again.

Quaint house right near Butler!

My friend and I were in Indy for just 2 quick nights. We got in late on the first night and the house was just as described. It had Butler paraphenalia and personal touches that made it feel super homey. We ordered from a nearby restaurant and it was delivered easily and quickly. The hosts provide a Keurig which was a lovely perk! So the next morning we enjoyed coffee in the cute dining room/living area before we hit the town. The location was close to everywhere we wanted to be and felt safe. It is in a very walkable area (we only wished the weather had been warmer!) Overall, it was a darling house in a great location!

Butler University Visit

Had a lovely stay and extra bonus was how close the home was to Butler's baseball facility where our son plays. We have booked this home again in May when we return for the final baseball series of the year.

Perfect Butler Parent & Bulldog Basketball fan Paradise-

It was wonderful. Location was key, but property was clean, warm and welcoming. We were here (January 2025) to move our son to Butler as a transfer student.It snowed 8 inches in about 24 hours- and we were warm and close to campus.The basketball arena was close enough to walk in the snow.We will definitely stay here again.Highly recommend!

In Town for Convention 2024

The property was in a great quiet area. Plenty to do in the area. Short drive to downtown Convention center. The place was as described. It was perfect for our stay. We were there only to sleep but it gave us everything we needed. We did have an issue with the entry door but Peter did resolve this by driving over to fix the issue. I would definitely stay here again.

Butler Beauty is THE BEST!

This was our second stay at Peter’s home in the last year and I cannot over emphasize the location if you have a student—especially a student athlete—at Butler. My son came over after move-in/practice and we were able to easily get to Broad Ripple, Newfields, the airport and more. We played cards and board games (provided!) and had the option to dine-in or out at our leisure. With limited hotel options around Butler, especially for out of state students/parentsthis home is a phenomenal option (esp. when you start thinking about cost of hotel+cost of Ubers). The access to the Canal Trail running year round is fantastic (I highly recommend running/walking down toward Newfields/Indianapolis Museum of Art for the Lake Loop and outdoor sculpture gardens/exhibits available for free)—plus it allows you to walk the entire campus in different ways via different routes which helps you get to know the area. Mama Carollas, Delicias, Petit Chou and even Twenty-Tap provide tasty meals—but remember that IN law doesn’t allow beer/wine sales at grocery stores after 8p on Sundays. A big thanks to Peter who has been responsive, accommodating and helpful our last two stays—we hope to be back again soon!

Nice little house close drive to attractions

We had a relaxing stay. The place was clean and comfortable. The beds were mostly comfortable (a little squeaky, but not awful) The driveway was nice to have for off the street parking.

A must stay!!

If you are coming to the area for a short trip, family gathering, or event this is a must stay. It’s like being at home when one is traveling. The 3 BR, 2 bath with a downstairs area is plenty of room for the kids to relax or family board games. With Butler University Across the street makes a great environment for a morning run or walk. Along with Butler U there is a well maintained city park for bird watching. We have marked this house to stay the next time we are in the area. Don’t pass up on this great VRBO!

Great spot for the most part!

This was a great place to stay overall and we really enjoyed having the backyard area! Only issues were a small leak in the roof. It didn’t really affect our stay, but we let the owner know about it, and they said they were going to fix it immediately. Also the basement was a bit dingy, but we didn’t need to use it. I wouldn’t recommend planning to have someone stay down there
