Bike trip
My husband and I planned a bike trip on the Cardinal Greenway. This property was very conveniently located for getting to the trailheads. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was well suited for our needs. We also enjoyed sitting outside on the deck.

Very nice!
We were visiting for a school competition at Ball State. It was very affordable and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean! It’s 13 minutes from Ball State according to GPS.

Clean and charming, perfect for a visit to all state students
Communication with the property owner was fantastic! As soon as you walk in, the overall impression is that it is clean, and decorated with charming style, well organized, and very pleasant. Everything we needed was provided. We felt safe and at home. There is even a cute outdoor deck and a roomy backyard. We were in town for a graduation, and it was absolutely perfect with a great location. Close to a Walmart and just minutes from great coffee shops, and the Ball State campus. We would definitely stay there again!!

Visit to daughter in Muncie
This was a great house! Many upgrades and personal touches. Loved the well stocked kitchen - even though we didn't need it this time!
We will come back soon!

Nice little place
House was clean. One of the beds was very hard and didn’t have a mattress protector on it. We were also given 4 towels and wash rags for 3 people for 2 nights. Would have been nice to have 6, but we made it work. Over all it was a nice place and served its purpose.
