The home was beautiful, clean, well decorated, and had everything we needed- including a dog bed and pet bowls. While the home is located in a rural location, French Lick / West Baden is just a 15 minute drive. We visited the West Baden Hotel and grounds and the Wilstem Safari in nearby Paoli, IN. We had a great time with our college-aged children and their boyfriend and girlfriend. Highly recommend!

Check in was a breeze, the home is beautiful and so clean! The home is well stocked with everything listed in the property details. The location is perfect and even the neighbors are friendly and fun! The back porch is a perfect spot to just sit, relax, and listen to the frogs at night. It’s so peaceful. Thank you!

28th girl's trip

The hosts thought of every little detail to make our stay great. Beautifully decorated home with comfortable beds. It waa like sleeping on a cloud with the fluffy blankets and pillows. Home was extremely clean, kitchen has everything you could need in terms of cookware and dishes, nice shaded front yard and nice deck on back with a fire pit. I would definitely recommend this home. Neighborhood is very friendly. There were 9 in our group and we loved it.

Family Weekend at the Lake

This house was perfect for our daughters, sons-in-law, and grandkids. We rented a pontoon boat on Friday at Patoka Lake. They stayed at the house Friday and Saturday night, and it was exactly what they needed. The "kids" room was perfect for the six cousins. The house was clean and well stocked. Thank you for a great stay!

Stay Summary

The house was very clean and met our space needs. In total there were 10 people plus one small dog that stayed there. The house is located very close to Patoka Lake. It is also fairly close to Holiday World, Marengo Cave, and French Lick/West Baden. If there were any questions about the house, the host was quick to respond. If we were to go back to that area again, we definitely would try to stay at this property.
