Perfect spot to chill and super close to Holiday World and other spots

Had everything we needed. Especially enjoyed the front porch and fire pit. Nice big yard for grandkids to play when not at the park. Great spot! Thanks!

The house is one of the better equipped rentals that we have stayed at. The beds were comfortable, kitchen provided plenty of cookware-utensils-table service-etc., bathroom had plenty of towels and washcloths. The grill and blackstone were much appreciated. There was a nice firepit unfortunately due to the extremely hot weather we didn't take advantage of it. Loved that we could look out and catch the deer or wild turkey wandering around. We also enjoyed visiting the goats. Convenient to Holiday World. Would definitely stay again.

Great House w Wonderful Amenities & Nice Yard

We had a very short visit at this property but would have been happy staying much longer. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking all types of meals, there was a full size washer & dryer and the beds were comfy. Great little touches, like board games and a selection of DVDs and an outdoor fire pit (bring your own wood) with seating and an outdoor grill. Nice yard for the kids to run around, play catch, etc. Even though it was on a main road, it was very quiet.

Perfect!

Location could not have been better. Love the fire pit, wish I would have known to buy or bring my own logs before coming, but over all was amazing. Accommodating for my huge group of 12!! All information very easy to find, along with expectations clearly listed. Stove and grill for use or fire pit as well. Very clean, very well kept

Family Vacation

The pictures are a little deceptive. This place is more like a camp ground. The house was a double wide trailer. I had to clean out the light over the kitchen table, the dead bugs were disgusting. Dead bugs all over the window sills. Beds were hard and the pillows were thin. There were a few good points. The water was hot, and the air conditioner worked perfectly. Location to Holiday World was very close.

Pictures are to be viewed before booking. Doesn’t look anything like a campground. You have been the first to complain about my overnight rental. Beds are all new as of last year. Everyone has their own liking on mattresses and pillows. Also it is a modular home not a double wide trailer. Thanks for your poor 3star rating. Sad as everyone else appreciates their stay.
