The Loft is great! We had everything we needed - the bed was super comfy. It was also nice to have coffee as well as shampoo, conditioner. The internet was a little spotty at times (my husband had some work to do) but overall a perfect place to stay!
Glad to hear you enjoyed the apartment. Sounds like you may have dined at Cafe Max, which I also own. Hope you will return to our charming town, restaurant, and rental again in the near future.
Lovely spot above Cafe Max - perfect for our stay to visit our son at Culver! Very easy communication with the owner and the place was absolutely perfect! We will be staying there again - thank you so much Susie!

So happy you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again soon!
The apartment was just as advertised, as well as clean and homey. Not long after we arrived there was a problem with the heat, and the host responded immediately. Understanding the predicament with the outside temperature being in the 20's, she immediately set us up in another of her rental properties around the corner. I can't say enough wonderful things about Susie! Would highly recommend any of her rentals!

Wonderful to have your stay with us. You can always return for a visit after graduation. Enjoy walking the campus and remember when they were but young lads embarking their Culver journey. Return soon-Susie
The apartment is very clean and comfortable. We had some confusion on getting into it. The pass code info was incorrect on the VRBO listing. The owner is AWESOME and helped us with everything!
