Awkward floor plan

Stunning back yard and view but house had odd steps of varying heights everywhere and lower level (basement) had very low ceilings w odd bulkheads. Layout would be great for 5-12 year old children and parents but was confusing and somewhat dangerous for elderly.

Beautiful property

We enjoyed our stay at the chateau. Quiet neighborhood right on the river was perfect for our weekend getaway. There were some basic maintenance issues we encountered, but nothing to spoil our experience. Be aware, there are MANY steps around the house…may be difficult for some disabled individuals. Overall, however, I would certainly recommend this property, it is beautiful.

Secluded, Quiet, and Excellent City Access

Beautiful and well equipped property with plenty of amenities and excellent views. House is at the end of a dead end drive with access to almost anywhere in Indianapolis within 30 minutes. The views are excellent. Weather didn’t cooperate with us for outside activities (-4). Beds are very comfortable but the rooms can get quite cold if you aren’t prepared. Well appointed kitchen with a gas stove. Large refrigerator and freezer. Plenty of dining and lounging space. Master bathroom is really nice with a large shower, tall enough for me at 6’. We didn’t bring our dogs but there is a nice fenced in area in the back. Neighbor dogs made a ruckus during the day once but other than that we didn’t hear them at all. Parking for four cars easily. Great communication with the owners.

Great views, Neat house

Our stay was very relaxing. No disturbances. The home was unique and spacious with great views and outdoor space by the river. Basic necessities were readily available. We felt comfortable as the place was clean and pleasant. The home had 4 TVs and board games too. We would recommend. Would mention there are a lot of transitions with steps within the home.

Pictures and description don’t do it justice!

Our family absolutely loved this place. The pictures don’t do it justice. The patio and backyard are absolutely amazing. It’s on a very quiet dead end road. I would highly recommend this property to friends and family. We had no idea Indy was as nice as it is. The zoo and the children’s museum are a must while you’re in town.

Great yard & fun home!

We rented this in November for a local sporting event for our son, and would love to visit in the summer. The two fire pits, large yard, and fishing gear would be great to use on the River location. The house has two beds down (would consider adding queens vs twins), and a king master up. The teens liked having their own area downstairs. The master bath is very nice. There are a lot of small stairs throughout inside and outside, but was no problem for us (heads up if you have accessibility requirements). It’s in a great area for activities and food, but tucked away so you feel like it’s a real getaway. Enjoyed!!

Great Place to Stay by the River!

We stayed at the river house for our annual ladies trip and were really happy with the house. The upstairs level is nicely updated with lots of room to gather and hang out. The outdoor space was amazing. The two deck areas are very beautiful and relaxing!

Birthday Weekend

We traveled from Michigan to visit our Butler University kiddo, to help him celebrate his birthday. The home was lovely, clean, and worked so well for our family. Our 14 pound Havanese loved the house and the backyard too! The house had everything we needed, and my college kiddo was able to return to campus with a full tummy and clean laundry. We would love to stay here again!

Awesome property!

We have stayed at VRBO homes many times and in many states over the past few years, and we have never stayed anywhere that was as picturesque, well-run (i.e., good communication and easy instructions) and clean and well-stocked as the River Chateau! The kitchen had everything we needed, and the bedrooms all had comfy sheets and extra blankets. The setting is beautiful—the house is near the end of a dead-end street, with woods behind it, so it is very tranquil. The yard is big (we brought a frisbee and a portable badminton set, and there was a football at the house) and being on the river gave us beautiful and peaceful views in the morning, and it was fun to watch the various watercraft that went by during the day. Guests should note that the 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom that are on the first floor have low ceilings and 1 has a steep step down. The shower and toilet on that floor were a bit of a challenge for my 6 foot 4 inch brother, but he was able to make it work. The primary bed and bath, though, were spacious with two sinks, a rain shower, king-sized bed and a walk-in closet. It is also important to know that the whole house has a lot of steps--sometimes at unexpected places. Also, bring drinking water as the well water has a distinctive smell and taste. There are two decks with plenty of seating and fireplace for s’mores! The location of the house was great for getting around Indy—we could easily get everywhere we wanted to go. Without question we will definitely try to stay here again, as we come to the area frequently, and we enjoyed our stay so much!

Lovely home on the water

Had a great girls getaway to see the Monet exhibit at Newfields. Weather was perfect to sit outside for dinner and fireplace. I do agree with the other reviews that there are a lot of small steps into some of the bedrooms and small one into the kitchen but other than that we absolutely loved it.

Stay low

5 stars overall! Just be aware that if there is anyone in your party that is 6'6" or better, you either have to give them the master suite or they will be whacking their head downstairs if not careful. Pretty sure this was mentioned in the description or previous comments, so we were prepared. Nice place. Clean and well cared for!

Great Family Weekend

This is our second stay on the rivers edge at the River Chateau. We visited Indy to spend time with family and this home accommodated us fine plus a couple dogs. The homes location is conveniently located near Broad Ripple area and only a short drive to downtown. We spent plenty of time at the house enjoying the large deck with great views of the river. Easy access to the river just outside the yard. The dogs enjoyed the fenced in yard with plenty room to run. Only drawbacks there are lots of stairs and the house has well water. We are already looking at staying again next summer.
