Perfect!
You really feel at home here. The location is excellent, in the bluffs with a beautiful, meticulously maintained large yard. The home is updated, attractive, and well thought out for guests. It is also well priced! The owners are welcoming and attentive to their guests. We couldn't have had a better stay and hope to return at a future date. Note: Be sure and use the back of the driveway for easy access to the home.

Wonderful home in a private almost woodsy area, but just blocks from sites and shopping. The owner Josh clearly cares and it shows! Fully equipped, nicely furnished, beautifully decorated, super spacious home with comfy bed. We biked the Wabash Trace directly from the cottage! Everything was perfect. I could not be happier with this stay!

Quiet, great patio
We wanted a place with great outdoor space and found it here. Just a delight. Home had been nicely updated. We drove the Loess Hills scenic byway south, enjoyed good food at 712, saw Moulin Rouge at the Orpheum. Great place to stay.

Beautiful home
We had a wonderful stay. Josh and Melissa are great hosts, and quick to respond to any questions. The fresh flowers and local cookies were a lovely touch. The house has been beautifully restored and the garden and deck are so relaxing, with visiting squirrels and bunnies

Fantastic
The hosts were so accommodating! Christmas Eve they brought a thoughtful gift for me and even a treat for my dog! The house was very nice, in the summer it would be nice to enjoy the sunroom, but it was too cold. An electric baseboard heater would be a good idea as the house becomes very small without that space. The hosts were great to fix the little issues. The house was decorated for Christmas..including a tree, that made it special..we had everything we needed! Games and welcoming muffins! Very nice! Highly recommend. Thank you!
