OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
All streaming services require users to log in with their own accounts to access content and maintain personalized viewing experiences.
Built in 1924, Linden House retains many of its original features, all of which are functional but may operate differently from modern constructions. The original double-hung windows, complete with their counterbalance system requires a delicate touch and some windows will not have screens. Doors, handles and hardware throughout the home reflect the craftsmanship of the time, but may stick or need a little finesse. The original hardwood floors are in great shape, but show signs of 100 years of use. Although modern updates have been made these historic elements remain and add to the home's charm.

Nicole and Brad Àr vÀrd
Hello! We're Nicole and Brad, a family with deep ties to Bloomington and a passion for hospitality. Brad, an IU alumnus and Indiana native, grew up immersed in Hoosier traditions and knows all the local favorites - from Nick's English Hut to the Bluebird. While Nicole, originally from California, fell in love with Bloomington's charm - the liveliness of Kirkwood Ave., the serene beauty of Dunn Woods and the campus' remarkable architecture that combines history and character.
We're a family of six, with twin daughters eager to join IU in 2025, a curious and imaginative five-year-old daughter, and an energetic three-year-old son. Our two lovable dogs round out our busy household in Carmel, IN. Hosting gives us the joy of meeting new people, sharing our favorite parts of Bloomington and creating a memorable experience for every guest.
At Linden House, we've carefully designed a space that blends luxury and comfort, perfect for IU events, family getaways, or peaceful escapes. We look forward to making your stay special!

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende
What we love most about Elm Heights is its perfect blend of history, community and accessibility. The tree-lines streets are not only visually stunning but also provide a peaceful retreat, just minutes from the hustle and bustle of campus. The neighborhood's rich architectural history, with a mix of charming vintage homes and modern updates, gives it a timeless appeal. Among the neighbors, you'll find IU professors, graduate students and members of the vibrant Greek community.
We also appreciate the walkability of Elm Heights. Being able to easily stroll to campus, Kirkwood Ave, and downtown Bloomington makes it incredibly convenient to visitors. Whether its grabbing a coffee at a local cafe, pizza at Mother Bear's, attending an IU event, or simply enjoying the natural beauty of the area, Elm Heights offers the perfect location for all of it. There's something special about being so close to the heart of IU but still nestled in a neighborhood that feels like a quiet retreat.
