We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO’s over the years and this is one of the best! The house is amazing. So clean and well thought out. Stocked with everything you can imagine. Beautifully decorated and well taken care of. Loved that it was pet friendly as well. So convenient to the IU campus and all that has to offer. The owner was very responsive to us as well. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch with our dog!

Perfect stay in Bloomington. Well-maintained and clean bungalow with so many amenities. Beautiful decor as well. You could tell a lot of thought was put into this property to make it extra special. Close to IU, shopping, and dining. We loved that this house had a crib for our young child and so many other items for visitors with children. It's near impossible to find a hotel or rental with a crib and the thought was really appreciated.

"Back Home Again in Indiana"

Our second stay at this beautiful, classic Bloomington bungalow. Stayed for IU homecoming weekend (10/24) with my wife and college friend and his wife. This is my favorite place to stay in Bloomington which I visit once a year. Great location with a walk to Kirkwood street and close to supermarket and Big Red Liquors. Also, a close walk to a wonderful restaurant called "The Elm". This place is so decorated so appropriately for the Bloomington experience. Great kitchen, living space, large bedrooms and outside porch. Enjoyed the retro turntable with over 150 albums. Cannot recommend this place enough. Will definitely return. Go IU.

Perfect for visiting IU Parents

We had a wonderful weekend at this property. Our IU students who visited us also loved it! The front porch was cozy and perfect for conversations, the beds were very comfortable and the overall space was perfect for a IU Moms getaway! Check in and out was very easy and communication with the owners was immediate! I can't recommend it enough. We plan on returning next year!

Amazing home, perfect location

We loved everything about our stay. The house has unique historical charm while maintaining a modern, open feel. So clean, and so comfy, from the beds and pillows to the living room decor. The house has everything: large dining table, updated kitchen and appliances, washer/dryer and a keurig machine (which came in handy while "working from home"). We were there visiting our old Bloomington favorites, and it was so great walking from our incredible front porch, and straight down the street to the 4th street arts festival and Soma coffee house. There was an IU football game in town, so the fall vibe and pageantry surrounded us. The house was the perfect place to end every day. A place to call home. Thank you to our wonderful hosts! Truly amazing stay!

The Bloomington Bungalow was a great place for our family to stay over our busy weekend of plans. The home matched the online pictures and amenities were as described. The beds were super comfortable and the neighborhood was whisper quiet at night. The updated bathrooms and kitchen were amazing and plenty of space for seating in the living room with comfortable furniture. Thank you for the hospitality and we enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely best place to stay in Bloomington

We’ve stayed in seven different rentals in town and this house is the one we’ll keep going back to. It is perfectly located and expertly appointed. The pictures are wonderful yet the house is even better. My only suggestions to guests are to ask the owner to leave lights on if you’re going to arrive after dark, and to give more specific instructions for the entrance key pad.

Om vÀrden

Devin Thomas Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
Hi, I’m Devin, my husband Andrew and I run StayIU. We’ve hosted for 10+ years and focus on thoughtful, guest-first stays: clear communication, spotless homes, and practical, beautiful design.

We’re Indiana University grads who still love Bloomington. Most of our guests are here to visit their students, catch a game, or see a performance, so our places are set up for real life: cook a favorite meal, spread out, and relax on a quiet street that’s still walkable to campus.

Our portfolio started in 2014 (after buying Bear’s Place) and now includes Bloomington homes plus sister properties in Palm Beach, FL and Scottsdale, AZ. Different markets, same standards.

We’re parents, school volunteers, and big believers that hospitality should feel easy. If you need anything, from parking tips to a great coffee spot, we’re quick to help. Welcome to StayIU; we’re glad you’re here.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

We picked this house for the location and the lifestyle. It’s an easy walk to IU’s Sample Gates, Kirkwood, and downtown, close to everything, yet on a quiet street that feels like home after a busy day on campus. We’re parents and IU grads, so we designed it for real visits: space to cook your student’s favorite meal, room to spread out, and a front porch that’s perfect for unwinding after bedtime.

Over the last few years we fully renovated the kitchen and both baths for everyday function (not just looks): modern fixtures, reliable A/C and heat, and comfortable, durable furnishings. The two bedrooms are unusually spacious for a historic bungalow, and we keep the closets and drawers clear, so you can actually unpack.

We also love the neighborhood. Elm Heights has a great mix of long-time residents and students, which keeps things lively but respectful. You can stroll to Nick’s, Kilroy’s, Starbucks, and campus performances, or head a few blocks to Bryan Park for playground time, a swim, or a morning jog.

In short: walkable to everything you’ll want, quiet when you’re home, and set up the way we like to travel with our own family, simple, comfortable, and easy.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

‱ WALKABLE + QUIET: A few blocks to IU/Sample Gates and Kirkwood, yet on a calm street that actually lets you sleep.

‱ FRONT PORCH MOMENTS: Morning coffee, post-performance debriefs, or a game-day recap, this porch is a favorite.

‱ SET UP FOR CAMPUS VISITS: Real kitchen for making your student’s favorite meal, spacious bedrooms, blackout shades, and room to unpack.

‱ VINYL VIBES: 200+ records and a turntable for low-key evenings in.

‱ HOSTED BY STAYIU: 10+ years of five-star hospitality, clear communication, smooth check-in, and local tips when you need them.

‱ PERSONAL TOUCH: Tell us who you’re visiting or what’s on your schedule; we’ll tailor suggestions to make it easy.
