Nicely updated home in great location near campus + downtown

This updated home in a residential neighborhood located just two miles from the IU campus and downtown Bloomington is the perfect retreat for a family or group of alumni returning to campus for a visit.

The property is also conveniently located near Bloomington High School South and Winslow Park ballfields. It's an ideal destination for families who want to be near the youth sports action.

The entire home is on a single floor with no steps, so it's good for anyone with mobility challenges.

Excellent family home for your Bloomington visits
Booked this home for IU move in weekend. Home was super clean and had plenty of room. Great location - loved all the deer and bunnies we had outside our door. Travis was excellent to work with. Extended the courtesy for us to ship a larger item to the home prior to us arriving and it was waiting for us inside when we got there. Comfortable beds with super soft sheets were a plus. Will stay here again if available when we visit Bloomington.

Visit with IU grand daughter
Great place in nice neighborhood. All the necessary amenities. House in need of some care: no door on screened in porch; floor door jams loose; weeds along front walk, loose roofing tiles, lighting too dim (needs lots brighter bulbs in all the lights). House was clean but porch and deck were really dirty. Lovely setting.

Family weekend with College Student
We had both sets of grandparents in to see our daughter at college for the weekend and it was really nice to be able to have them all under one roof and dinners together at the table. All the amenities were great and well thought out. Very clean and everything worked well. We would definitely recommend. Travis was very responsive and answered my couple of questions quickly.

Wonder place and location!
Travis was super communicative and easy to work with. We really appreciated how well organized, clean and supplied this house was. We stayed over Easter and had everything we needed to cook with. A big shout out to how comfortable the beds were. We all got amazing sleep. The location was perfect for us. The neighborhood is quiet and very walkable. Great for families and those looking for just a really great spot for quiet time. Thank you Travis for a great place to stay. We will certainly be keeping your home in mind the next time we stay.

Handy Home in Bloomington
This 3 bedroom home provided what we needed for our weekend stay in Bloomington. It is not the most convenient spot because it took about 10 minute drive to get to IU or downtown but overall wasn't too bad. This house has what you need, towels, beds, kitchen etc. but nothing fancy. One strange thing is that in the principle bedroom there is no door between the bedroom and the bathroom. Other than that the photos represent the house well and it was about what I expected when I arrived.
