Great place in a great location

We stayed here with some friends for the IU-Michigan game. The location could not be better, you can literally see the stadium from the front porch. Speaking of, it was really fun to sit out there on game day and chat with all the people walking by. One of our friends also went to the basketball game the next day, and of course it was also only a short walk away. Highly recommend!

Birthday Weekend

Fabulous house with everything IU in it. The location was perfect for attending the IU/Army basketball game. Loved the fact that there was good outdoor space for groups to gather, and plenty of room inside to put a 6 foot table for food. Only wish you had a broom to sweep up, but we made due with paper towels. Otherwise, PERFECT! We will definitely recommend your house to others and rent again! Thank you! Go Hoosiers!!!

Last game of the season

Great atmosphere for an IU basketball fan. Perfect distance for Alumni to walk down memory lane, on and off campus. My wife and her friend are Alumni and realized 25 years later it’s harder to finish a AMF at Upstairs, if you know you know.

Perfect

This house is exactly as described and more. You can see the football stadium from the front porch. Parking is easy. There are coin laundry machines available in an adjacent secured entry in the back of the property. They had a large candy jar and complimentary basket of chip bags waiting for us. Kids loved it. The home was clean and open. Appliances are newer. King bed unit on main floor. 1 Queen bed and a closet nook w twins upstairs. Both bathroom are on main floor. Both have showers. It’s not a big deal but They don’t have cable. They have Samsung TV which doesn’t get you prime time/regular sports games. They do have a big smart tv so you can log into apps that you may subscribe to. Josh was very responsive to inquiries. We will be back. Thanks!

Great Management Team

This was my second time staying at this property. What a fun place... It's very close to football and basketball and a pleasant 15 minute walk to Kirkwood. Kitchen is well equipped, beds are comfortable, but most importantly the management team is great. I've had to change my stay dates several times and every time I got quick replies and they were able to meet my requests. Top notch and makes the customer feel valued. Thank you!

Great Property for Hoosier Games!

This is a great fun property. We were in town to move our freshmen in for his first year. Hotels were all booked so I happened on this listing and I'm glad I did. It's close to campus - especially close to the football stadium. The inside is really well done with a nice great room/kitchen/bar area with tons of IU decor. There were only two of us so we only used the downstairs which had a nice king size bed. Upstairs was another nice bedroom. The "third bedroom" is very tight. Entry door for BR 3 is inside the second bedroom so it could be a privacy issue if you have couples. The only complaint I have is it wasn't super clean. Based on other reviews and the overall condition of the house, I'm guessing this is an anomaly. It was not something that distracted from our stay. We will rent again!

Amazing Rental

We rented for Graduation and it was the perfect spot. Great place to have other graduate families to stop by for a bite after graduation while traffic dies down. Definitely would recommend!

Perfect rental for Mother's Weekend Fun

A couple of us mothers rented The Porch so we'd have a gathering place for other mom's to join up before meeting with our sons. The Porch was perfect for "hanging" out (literally on the porch), a few cocktails and kickback relaxation. Lots of mingling room, well equipped, excellent TV in the social area to play music.
