(Just minutes from the IU stadium & downtown Bloomington!)
Make yourself at home in this 3-bedroom 3 full bathroom Bloomington retreat. Feel and see the tranquility in this home that is filled with large and small crystals/geodes from around the world! This all brick home has loads of character which includes a brick stairway on the inside, and a HIDDEN speakeasy (prohibition style) bar! The entrance to the speakeasy is hidden in plain sight but not obvious. In order to find the entrance you need to find Where The Red Fern Grows. Goodluck!
This home features 3 bedrooms with possibility of a 4th bedroom in the basement family room that can easily be turned into a king bed with the provided topper and bedding. This home also has 3 full bathrooms - 1 attached to the master bedroom and the 2nd one is off the hallway. The 3rd bathroom is retro style and located in the basement. The home has a very large and fairly private wrap around deck, with a brand new HOTTUB recently added!
The home is just a few miles from downtown, IU campus, the stadium, Westside shopping, and interstate 69! This home is truly a 1 of a kind!

Great location just a few minutes to IU campus. Awesome property, very clean and comfortable with super-cool Speakeasy! Host was great with communication leading up to our stay and follow -up. Definitely hope to stay here again.
Absolutely loved staying here. Me and Zach had great communication and the hidden speakeasy is such a nice touch. I would recommend to anyone going forward!!!
We loved staying in this beautiful home! It is just a three minute drive to the stadium and a five minute drive to Kirkwood and campus but yet you feel like you are in Brown County! The home has been done with such care and love and detail - it is a visual treat! Hosts were very responsive.
Our family of four had a wonderful time visiting Bloomington. The home was beautiful and well kept. We throughly enjoyed the art work and amenities. The owners were available and present when we needed them. They provided so many little extras for our stay, which really made the stay worthwhile and made it feel like home. We highly recommend this property when staying in southern Indiana.
