Julie was super responsive to all of our questions, the house (and hot tub!) are great and very clean. Very thoughtful little touches throughout, also, including coffee and coffee accessories for people like us who didn't think to pack any. Zero complaints. BTW if you're attending anything at Lucas Oil stadium, we were able to Uber to the stadium from the house for about 10!

Our second stay
This is our second time staying at this house. We come to Indianapolis twice a year for a state swim meet at IU Indy. The house is conveniently located near the pool so we can drive or walk to the pool and easily come back if we need something. The owner was SUPER at communication as there were a couple issues before we even got there. The dryer and hot tub had both gone out. The hot tub wasn't a huge deal as it's summer and already hot. The dryer, while we could get by, was more important. A replacement was delivered the day after we checked in and all was well. Even the hot tub got fixed. The house has a great amount of room to spread out and has everything we could need. We hope to keep coming back every time we have a meet.

Great stay for the Indy 500
Julie was so helpful and communicative. The property was well equipped with all we needed for the kitchen which is a huge plus. The backyard and pergola was a nice bonus and the beds were really comfy. My only piece of feedback would be to provide more trash bags! For a 6 night stay we were only given 3 bags total for trash and recycling for 5 people on vacation cooking and drinking lol definitely wasn’t enough. Other than that, wonderful and would definitely stay again!

Great dog friendly place to stay
We enjoyed our quick trip to Indy for the Grand Prix and our stay in this house! The house was well appointed with great touches, like dog beds and bowls, popcorn and candy for the kids, and super comfy beds. The yard is fully fenced and the location was perfect for us - 5 min from downtown and fifteen from the track. Cute historic home.

Indianapolis stay
The house is clean and well taken care of, the beds are comfortable and the check in and out was easy. Communication with Julie the owner is easy using text. She provided us with good information and some suggestions about places to visit in Indianapolis. The walk to downtown Indianapolis is very pretty when you take the path next to the river however it is gated and closed after 9 pm and open at 6 am in the morning. It takes about 30 -35 minutes walking to Downtown. For us being there for seven days was the only down side of the location of the property being that we went to a conference fore seven days and did not want to take a cab every time. You can use Lime scooters and get to the property and leave them parked right in front of the house. You will have to use a different route as the scooters are not allowed on the previously mentioned path. We did not mind the walk but did give the property 4 stars for its location which we were aware of when reading about the property and is the only downside but should not stop you from renting it . We would stay at this property again.

The house is in a renovated part of town, so you may feel nervous driving in... but don't. It's really nice. Very spacious and they don't have an annoying TV problem... you can actually watch anything. Great Choice!
