About the host
Hosted by Kristen Randolph
I grew up in Northern Indiana, met my husband and moved closer to Indy. We love the nature, hunting, and all things country so we took a chance, sight unseen on 20 acres! Do not regret it! We started in a camper, and eventually built this house. We LOVE IT! We always host famkly and friends and we want to be able to share it with others! We love hosting, so why not do it fulltime?
Why they chose this property
It's close to family, and to the hills of Southern Indiana (my husband calls them mountains... hills are just as pretty!)
What makes this property unique
There's hiking, we are close to the lake, in the country but still close enough to go to town and enjoy night life!
