Mini reunion and celebration of life

The house was ideal for a small group of high school friends to get together. The lovely backyard was great for relaxing and reminiscing in the evenings. The house is so homey and beautiful and obviously well cared for. It was a wonderful stay and we are looking forward to the next time.

College tour weekend

My son and I came out to West Lafayette to tour Purdue. We needed a convenient location for a jam packed schedule. What an oasis! I didn’t expect to fall in love with this adorable, well appointed and unique craftsman period home. My favorite moments were early morning walks in the charming neighborhood. I’d come back to a fresh cup of coffee and sit outside on the deck surrounded by the sounds of nature in the backyard garden. Peaceful and ready to return. 10 out of 10!

Peaceful Purdue Retreat

This house is in a quiet part of West Lafayette but within walking distance of the Purdue Memorial Union & Stewart Center. Clean and comfortable accommodations made my trip that much better than staying in a hotel. I'll be back!
