The house was super clean, and all finishes and furnishings were elevated. Even though it was a chilly time in December, there were many great places to easily walk to. Although we had a couple of hiccups, the owner was very responsive and made sure we were taken care of.

This is our second stay at Naptown Escape. The home is lovely! It has all the amenities you can think of, the location is great (easy to get to downtown quickly, and near the Garage and other walkable restaurants). We were a group of 4 moms and 4 teens who were going to IUI and it was a quick 10 min drive. There is a garage- which fit one of our cars and even though it's permit parking, we were all able to find parking in the evenings. The porch and yard are nice- we keep visiting in Dec- but commented on how fun it would be if the weather was nicer, or in the summer! Hilda (the host) was great. We had to bother her with a question on this visit- and she responded right away and was very helpful! It was also very icy, and she had her team come and salt and shovel to make sure it was safe! We are very happy with our stay & hope to be back!

The minute I walked into the house I said " I want to live here." Quiet safe neighborhood, walking distance to Mass Ave for great restaurants. The house had comfortable beds, bathrooms with great shower pressure, and an incredible screened in porch to chill. Air purifiers in each room were a thoughtful touch. Communication with owner was effortless, she responded within 5 minutes. I would absolutely stay here again and hope to do so next year.

Perfect family meet up for B1G Tourney
Ample rooms meant that everyone had plenty of space and privacy. Kitchen and living areas along with the screened in porch provided plenty of space for us to visit with each other, watch games, and sit comfortably. Gaming room, and board games provided side entertainment when needed. Proximity to the food hall meant we could walk for a meal and everyone could find something they wanted while we all dined together. The neighborhood is so charming and quiet, and a 30 minute walk to downtown attractions. We were all ready to move to Indianapolis after this stay!

Our family of 7 adults and 2 children gathered to spend three days post- Christmas in this 5-bedroom home The kitchen was fully stocked with staples and cookware so we could prepare many meals at home. We were able to use the screened room as the temps were in the 50's

Dream Vacation Home
Some people can make a place look good online but it’s not usually as nice in real life. This place is the exception… it’s even better in person. They thought of every detail! This was the perfect home for our trip to Indy for Christmas with family in the area. Safe neighborhood, walk to everything, lots of amenities throughout the home. We will definitely make this an annual stay. Thanks so much for making our trip magical!

Best location!
Our group had a great stay! Very central to some great restaurants and activities in the Bottleworks District! We especially loved the sliding patio doors and extra outdoor seating. We could have stayed there all day! The cornhole set was great bonus for being outside. The rooms were spacious and they all had air purifiers. The bed mattresses were hard for our group’s liking but not a deal breaker. Highly recommend this home!

Perfect location and wonderful stay!
We had the best stay at Sandstone Escape! We were in town for a swim meet at the Natatorium, and had 4 moms & 5 teenagers. We wanted to be able to make our own meals, socialize in between sessions, and just quietly hang out in the evenings after the teens went to bed. The house was a short 8 min drive away from the Nat, located near the BottleWorks area- with plenty of options for dining, shops, and walking. The house itself was everything we needed- beautiful, clean and spacious. There is a lovely heated screened porch that would be perfect in slightly warmer weather (it was a very cold Dec stay for us). The bathrooms & bedrooms were clean, organized and had all the amenities you would want when traveling. The Owners thought of everything from charging cords, small fans, spices and condiments in the kitchen, bluetooth speakers and more. I had to work and was able to use the office and it was a great space (even an extra monitor). We loved having a garage and street parking was good (We felt safe in the area at night and early morning). The game room in the basement was perfect for the teens while they hung out in between sessions. Hilda let us extend our check-out an hour so we could get the kids back to the house to change after their session, before hitting the road for the long drive back. Thank you so much- your home provided us with a stress free experience, and your help/accommodating our request was very appreciated- and we are already planning to come back!!!
