The Retreat was a DELIGHT! Brandon is a great host & communication was excellent. This was our first time staying in a Vrbo rental, and I immediately realized the benefit to this type of property over a hotel-- it was immaculately clean and maintained! The decor added to a soothing, relaxing environment. The neighborhood is quiet and populated by considerate, friendly folks. It was Memorial Day / Indy 500 weekend, and nobody was being loud and unruly, which is honestly a rarity in Indiana! This meant a lot to us because we were there to celebrate our daughter's 16th birthday. She is autistic and very sensitive to noise and crowds, so we wanted her to have a nice, stress-free getaway! She loved the upstairs loft area, and we were able to hang some cute birthday decorations with string from the railings & spiral staircase. We enjoyed birdwatching from the awesome balcony view outside! We had several deer visitors out front during our stay. It was a little too cool to use the pool, but it looked REALLY nice and was super conveniently located! Even though it rained the whole time, we still had a really nice time, and look forward to returning!

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was immaculate and so cute. The view of the woods was peaceful. You have to take a walk to get a lake view, but once you do, it’s lovely. The bed was super comfortable and my husband really liked the loft office set-up with a pretty view. Perfect anniversary get-away. 25 minutes to Bloomington with lots of food and fun options.

Exactly as indicated

This condo is immaculate, well-appointed, and exactly as indicated in the details. The unit included everything we needed and wanted for a stress-free, quick, two night, anniversary get-away. Brandon is a responsive host-checking in on our stay and offering assistance if needed; however, since everything was perfect, no assistance was needed. We will definitely be back!

Well maintained and updated condo. The only complaint we had is that there is only one mirror in the condo (located in bathroom), which made it difficult for three people to get ready at the same time. But the host was very responsive to it.
