Thank you Patrick ! We're so glad you enjoyed the home. We try our best to maintain the property and its surroundings. We hope you stay with us again.
Fantastic stay and a wonderful property! We were looking for a quiet relaxing property outside of Bloomington to wind down after a IU football game and enjoy the quiet countryside and we found it. The property was immaculate and full of amenities. The well stocked fire pit was also great fun on a fall evening! Highly recommend!

Thank you Joe for the great review. It was a pleasure hosting you and your crew.
The best setting for a fall getaway. Everything has been carefully thought out at this cottage. Just open the door and relax! The corn hole and fire pit to the multiple porches to sit on. This place is amazing. Everything you need is there. Great place!

Thank you for the wonderful review Sherril. We strive to make every guest have a great experience here. We would love to have you stay with us again.
This place has everything you will need. Every detail has been carefully thought out. The cottage is clean and amazing. Lots of sitting areas, games and just the best tucked away location you can imagine. The trails were amazing and well kept. The wildlife was cool. We saw two deer sparring!! We have already booked our next stay! :)

What makes this property unique
Driving up to house on the blacktop drive is like driving into a park. You will have privacy but still close to a nearby convenience store and restaurant.
