Perfect location and cute
The Benjamin provided the perfect location for our girls’ getaway weekend. The neighborhood was quiet and there was plenty of street parking. The house was just as described and provided ample space for 5. Loved that it was a quick drive to West Baden Resort for coffee and to French Lick to eat.

Family Weekend
We usually stay at West Baden, but decided to rent a home this time instead. Everything is well appointed and the owners were very thoughtful. My daughter and her family enjoyed our stay as well as myself. I would say it is an older house that has been fully renovated, back deck was very nice for a cool evening around the fire pit. Kitchen was well appointed and many spices there for your use. I would say just two things, because it is older it does smell musty at the initial entry but when your in there I couldn’t smell it and also I would maybe put Kleenex in the bathrooms for quick make up fix etc. there were specific wash cloths for make up so that was nice but just quick fixes Kleenex would have been perfect. Would we stay here again? Absolutely we would, very kind owners, very close to everything, very quiet home away from home!

Friends Weekend
Five women friends on a spa adventure enjoyed the property very much. The house was well equipped and had a basket of snack for the guest. After we left, 1 of our friends left her earbuds. They found it and mailed it back. Very gracious host

Adorable and Quiet
Very cute house on a quiet street. The house is extremely well stocked. There is a small basket of toys, a pack in play, and a small high chair. My kids didn't even touch the toys that I brought for them! The kitchen has anything you may need, laundry detergent, extra bedding, etc. My son is already asking "When we go back to Indiana can we stay in the same house?!" Hope to be back next summer!

Best Alternative to French Lick's Resort Hotels
I stayed in town for a conference and needed a place near the hotel since they sold out before I could reserve my space. Found this lovely home within walking distance to the West Baden Hotel. My stay was great. And the host even had shampoo and conditioner, thankfully, because I had been accustomed to staying in a hotel and didn't bring any. If I were coming in as a group to the conference, I would absolutely look at booking this house instead for my group -- More economical and provides greater opportunity to socialize. Highly Recommend.

Charming Home
We wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks for letting us stay at the Benjamin. Your hospitality made our visit truly special, and we thoroughly enjoyed the comfortable and charming accommodations. A special thank you for recommending Patoka Winery—it was a fantastic experience! The wine was delightful, and the atmosphere was just perfect. Your suggestion added a wonderful touch to our trip. Thank you again for hosting us for our memorable girls trip!

Very nice place
It was comfortable and clean. Love the back deck with fire table. Wish check out was at 11 instead of 10. That’s a little early for a checkout time. Also communication a little slow hearing back when I had questions. The host seemed suspicious of us and asked us for a summary of why we were coming. She also asked others about me and inadvertently sent it to me. That seemed a little odd and made me uncomfortable although I understood she’s had unruly guests. I’m sure not going to pay for a place and then cause damage. But overall we loved our family time.

Comfortable and Enjoyable Stay
We came to town for a cheer competition at the French Lick Resort. We wanted to luxury of being able to cook and relax after our competition. This house was cute, comfortable, clean and perfectly located for our event. The host was super friendly and easy to get with. The neighborhood was quiet. We would recommend staying here if looking for any of the above!

Even better than expected!
If you're read all the other glowing reviews of this property, I don't know how much I have to add --- everything you've read is accurate! This is a lovely home, in a prime location overlooking the West Baden Springs Hotel. This home is meticulously maintained, both inside and out, and was much more spacious than we expected. Everything we needed for an enjoyable stay was provided, including a lovely welcome basket of snacks and festive holiday decor throughout the house. In fact, the house was so comfortable that after we left, I realized we did much less sightseeing than normal, because we were so happy to relax and hang out at The Benjamin! Highly recommended, and we look forward to coming back!

About the host

Hosted by Jay and Becky Kraft

Host profile image
Jay and I enjoy finding properties with personalities and turning them into comfortable places to stay. It was by accident that we found The Benjamin...we were not looking, but once we spent time in the area, we completely feel in love with the home and the area. We hope you enjoy our Sweet Benjamin, as well as the local attractions!

Why they chose this property

Once we found this very sweet home, we knew it would be perfect not only for us, but our family, friends and others. The home is actually named after our Benjamin...the area fits him perfectly. He is a spirited 23 year old young man, who loves to golf, snowboard, all water sports and of course a visit to the casino. I hope you enjoy The Benjamin as much as, we love our Benjamin and The Benjamin :)
