Super cute, clean, big! Pinball machine was a hit, too. The store and the good Thai place just across the street was a bonus. Would totally book again.

Check in and check out were a breeze. Host was very attentive to my questions. This property does not have all of the items that are sometimes stalked from other guests from the past, (Crazy seasoning, Quaker oats, microwave popcorn. ) if you vrbo a lot you know what I am talking about. The 50s look is very cool and consistent through the house. Kitchen cabinets were amazing. Beds were great and showers were hot. Everything worked. This house is located on the corner of two busy streets but that didn't bother us much.

The property was very clean and spacious! From the outside the house doesn’t look as big as it actually is. Plenty of space to spread out, well stocked bathrooms with plenty of towels. Anything you might need re: kitchen utensils is provided. The home is right across the street from the football field and a three minute drive from the basketball arena. Will not hesitate to stay here again - thank you!

This house was very clean and spacious. There are actually 2 twin beds in the extra living space not pictured! The master bathroom could use an update, but the space is definitely very unique. We had everything we needed and it’s in a great location! I did not receive any check in or out instructions or the door code until 30 minutes before check-in, which made me a little nervous. I had to reach out to VRBO to get ahold of the host. The numbers provided wouldn’t let me get ahold of anyone. Overall, very satisfied with our stay though!

Totally fun and Totally Convenient

We had a great visit here. It is so spacious and so very well supplied for comfort and ease. Mid century modern decorations were amazing and fun to live with, especially for us senior citizens, since we grew up in that era! The location is so convenient to Ball State and fast to any other locations.

Our stay was excellent. The host may want to edit the details about games and entertainment. While my husband and son enjoyed the pinball game, the description implies there are many games to choose from and there weren’t. Not a deal killer, but might need to lower those expectations. My daughter loved the vintage kitchen and my granddaughters marveled at how many rooms there were.
