Our two families were so pleased with the house property. They liked its colorful walls everywhere and its lower lever with its wide, colorful chairs and arcade game, as well as, the large backyard. Overall, a grand time in Bloomington!!
Fun vacation for Thanksgiving and IU/Purdue Game! Was able to cook a full meal and everyone loved hanging out in the basement with the fire. Large yard and deck would be super fun in warmer weather.
Excellent, fun, clean whimsical home close to Bloomington.

So glad you all had a wonderful time Megan! We would welcome you back anytime. The place was left in great condition!
Thank you!
Only about an hour away from Indianapolis. Friends and Family enjoyed the house and outdoor games. Close to the University as well and Restaurants. A very enjoyable time. Communication was excellent and the house fit our needs very well
Overall, not our favorite VRBO. We were in town for a wedding, not a university event, so we wanted this side of town to be close to family. The house needs some work, there is a strong damp smell throughout and we encountered a few bugs indoors. Also, furniture isn't the same as pictured and the living room set is very stained. Positives -- the host is easy to reach and the beds are pretty comfortable.
