About this property
*Overlook, Hidden Gem + Large Deck for Entertaining Friends & Family
Are you looking for a fantastic retreat for a family reunion, girls weekend, golfing or boating?
The Overlook is a 6 bedroom, 3 bathroom condominium comprised of nearly 2,400 square feet perfect for large gatherings of friends and family. Often reserved for larger groups, it is one of two sister properties nestled away near Lake Monroe, yet still close enough to IU.
Sister property is the Overloft, property 1178054 and is located within the same unit, upstairs.
The Overlook offers a full service well stocked kitchen with nearly everything you need to cook or grill (minus the food, of course!), ample seating for dining, a shared deck with outdoor seating and Weber grill, pool and poker tables as well as, a large, comfortable seating area for streaming amazon or netflix or playing Xbox.
