Everything was perfect. Very clean and we had everything we needed for our weekend stay. The studio is bigger than it appears in the pictures and was very clean and comfortable. Wonderful hosts! We would love to return sometime.

The location is perfect for a romantic getaway for a couple and closed to all that Bloomington has to offer as well as proximity to Lake Monroe. It's cozy and beautifully appointed and it is obvious the host puts thought an care into both the decor and the guest experience.

Delightful

This space was delightful—everything we needed, clean, comfortable, charming. Hosts were very communicative and have thought of everything a visitor would need. Setting is serene bit also a short drive to all shops, restaurants and hiking spots.

Our 20th Anniversary Getaway

Very private and cozy. The owner gave us complete privacy and thought of all the little touches that made our stay even more special! From the locally made sweets, to the robes and the turntable with albums. Everything was just perfect for our stay.

Amazing stay

Bobby’s place was even more beautiful than expected. My husband and I stayed for 2 nights while visiting IU. Such a tranquil relaxing place to come back to after busy days. The home was fully stocked and very cozy. Would highly recommend.

It was a wonderful place, just not very private. You are staying in someone front yard. It was very cozy.

Wonderful!

This is a perfect suite. Every amenity is thought of. The location is wonderful. Close to Bloomington and IU campus but a quiet retreat in the woods. Bobby is a top notch hostess!! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again.
