A great location with the duplex set up that was great for a large family get together. We visited with 3 families with young kids and a dog. Plenty of room for all! Both have private entrances which can easily operate as independent properties or easy to go between utilizing back doors off shared deck. Everything is modernized and host was easy to communicate with!

We went for a girls trip weekend and we had 8 people total with us. We rented both units and it was perfect with plenty of room to sleep for everyone. The house was close to the downtown area and easy to get to. We went in November and the fall colors were beautiful at the house! One suggestion I would have is to make sure there is more toilet paper stocked and easily available. Lisa was a great host!!!

Rivers edge vacation

My family group of 5 plus our dog had a great 4 day stay at Rivers Edge. We very much liked the closeness to the Broad Ripple area just south for evening meals. The property also had great access to the nearby park. It was as advertised inside in the North-side unit that we occupied. Definitely recommended.

The perfect stay for FFA

This house was PERFECT for our group during the FFA convention. It housed all of us comfortably. It’s far enough away from the bustle of city life and the fire pit became a much needed gathering spot after the fighting the crowds at convention. Lisa was welcoming and the communication was there from the very beginning. We will definitely be back for convention and will hopefully stay with Lisa again!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Lisa, and I'm excited to welcome you to our home in Indianapolis. Originally from Ohio, I’ve fallen in love with this city and all it has to offer. When I'm not hosting wonderful guests like you, I love exploring the vibrant Broad Ripple neighborhood, enjoying nature walks in nearby Marott Park, and spending time along the beautiful White River.

Hosting has been such a rewarding experience for me—I truly enjoy making sure that your stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. There's nothing better than knowing that guests are creating memories in a space I care for and have worked hard to make inviting. Whether you're here for a short weekend getaway or a longer stay, I’m here to help with anything you need and ensure your time in Indianapolis is unforgettable!

Looking forward to having you stay!

Why they chose this property

The Broad Ripple Village is a unique blend of charm, energy, and nature, and it’s one of my favorite parts of Indianapolis. Situated just north of downtown, it offers the perfect balance of peaceful riverside views and vibrant city life. The area is full of character, with quirky boutiques, delicious restaurants, and cozy coffee shops—there's always something new to explore.

What I enjoy most about the neighborhood is its walkability and the easy access to nature. Marott Park, right next to our property, is a true hidden gem—perfect for leisurely walks, peaceful moments by the river, or simply soaking in the beauty of the outdoors. The White River itself adds a sense of tranquility that makes it feel like you’re escaping the city, even though you’re so close to everything.

Whether you’re out for a morning jog along the trails or grabbing a bite to eat at one of the local eateries, Broad Ripple has a warm, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. It's a neighborhood that brings together the best of nature, community, and convenience—no wonder I love living and hosting here!

What makes this property unique

What sets our home apart is the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. While you’re just minutes away from the excitement and culture of downtown Indianapolis, you’ll feel worlds away in our peaceful riverside retreat. With direct access to the White River and Marott Park, our guests can enjoy the best of both worlds—serene nature and easy access to the city's vibrant heart.

The charm of our rustic, well-loved home is complemented by two spacious units, making it ideal for larger groups, families, or even a special getaway with friends. The expansive backyard, with its quiet riverfront setting and scenic walking trails, offers a rare escape in the middle of a bustling city. The two beautiful back decks are perfect for soaking up the sunshine, hosting a cookout, or simply relaxing with nature all around.

Another standout feature is the fully-equipped kitchen and cozy living spaces, designed to make you feel at home, whether you’re here for a few days or longer. We’ve taken care to ensure everything from the décor to the details in the bathrooms and bedrooms provides maximum comfort for your stay.

If you’re looking for a place where you can unwind in nature yet still be close to everything Indianapolis has to offer, this is the place. We strive to create an atmosphere that feels like your home away from home, with personal touches and the flexibility to meet the needs of every guest.
