We have been coming to the Bloomington area for 10 years and have tried a variety of places to stay and this is by far our favorite-two bedrooms each with a king size bed and attached barhrooms, cozy couches to relax on and a nice big table for games! Hosts were super welcoming and left all the necessities for us! We will definitely be back!

We’re so pleased and grateful to Dennis for keeping this wonderful still-new unit available. Everything works, clean as a whistle, comfortable rooms, bright kitchen, quiet, friendly neighborhood, on and on - this is why we keep coming back.

Perfect home!

I was there for a visit to my IU student, and chose this place because it was cheaper than a hotel room (during Eclipse weekend). The home was immaculate and had every amenity. The owner was responsive, and the stay was very easy. Highly recommend.

Amazing luxury townhouse!

Wonderful hosts and what a lovely place to stay! All amenities, all recent, all working, all very high quality - fluffy towels, comfortable bedding. This is a quiet end unit with patio overlooking woods, and nice interior spaces. Cleanliness and thoughtfulness are up there with the best inns we’ve visited. Thank you Dennis and team for making this great place available - look forward to returning!

About the host

Hosted by Dennis Mockler

Host profile image
I'm a semi-retired (OK, mostly retired) former radio station manager and small business owner. I absolutely love Bloomington and Indiana University, to the point that we purchased two townhouses to offer as vacation rentals. Hoosier Happiness and Hoosier Happiness, Too were put together to provide everything one could think of for the best possible experience in a decor that tastefully honors Bloomington and IU. Other than my five grandchildren, there is little that makes me as happy as a five star review from a guest who expresses how much they enjoyed staying in one of our townhouses and states that they will be back (even in a short period of time so far many of them have been back). With what we have spent to prepare and furnish the townhouses they have been far from the best investments we've ever made, but we're loving every minute of hosting our guests in them!

Why they chose this property

Hoosier Happiness is a great townhouse for relatives coming to town to visit students at IU, alumni returning to Bloomington, visiting medical and academic personnel or anyone coming to town to enjoy the Bloomington area and IU events. It is located in a quiet community 10-12 minutes from Bloomington and the IU campus. It is well stocked and furnished and tastefully decorated with a Bloomington and IU theme. It is within walking distance of Woolery Mill event center.

What makes this property unique

The two upstairs bedrooms have king size beds and en suite bathrooms for privacy and comfort. The main floor living room has enough room for everyone and a 55" Samsung smart TV. The basement features a 65" Samsung smart TV including wall connection for your gaming system, DVD player or other devices. The basement sofa is a queen size sleeper sofa and the basement also has a full bath so all three sleeping areas have their own full bathroom. The kitchen has what you need to cook, bake or prepare your tailgate if you're not enjoying Bloomington's great restaurants.
