The barn was beautiful. No complaints about the cleanliness. Entire property inside and out were as described. We did have a Bat inside the house that came down from the chimney and flew around inside of the house for a while but he finally went out the front door. It was actually pretty entertaining. The only complaint I had was no cookware or very limited. If you stay here make sure to bring cookware. Other than that, it worked great. Oh and no propane. Over all, I’d stay again..
Our family stayed in this very comfy home for the Indy500 race weekend. Very convenient location. Janelle was very quick with answers to any questions we had. We would definitely stay again if in the area! Thanks for a lovely stay.
Great place to stay for us - it was walking distance to the fairgrounds. Great restaurants close by and relaxing back deck and front porch to hang out.
The farmhouse is terrific! Plenty of space, comfortable and clean, and the kitchen is fantastic. Our dog loved the huge fenced in backyard. Janelle is an excellent host and responded quickly to questions in advance of our stay.
