Short Stay, Forever Memories

We stayed here while we visited Holiday World. The beds were super comfortable, the host was easy to contact, & the area was relatively quiet. If I ever go back to Holiday World, I will 100% try to rent this property again!

Convenient for Holiday World!

Great stay! We much prefer a Vrbo vs small cramped hotel rooms for our family of 5. Everything was as advertised and the kids liked having some snacks and drinks stocked 💙

Fun vacation

I really thought the place was so quaint and so quiet except for the loud trucks that go by, but that was OK. Very well-maintained and very well stopped we enjoyed our visit very much.

Cute place close to Holiday World. Host was great to communicate with - even gave us a good restaurant recommendation for after the park closed. Location was great.

Fathers day trip

Host was wonderful. Communication was great. Super accommodating. There were even 2 kinds of Sunny D in the fridge which my son absolutely loved. Will use this host everytime I visit Holiday World.

Home Away From Home

This was a wonderful find! The property is clean & has so much to offer. My kids were thrilled to find popsicles & a basket of goodies! My husband and I were blown away by all the xyz that were available if needed: men and women’s shampoo & conditioner, body wash, & lotion. There was even sunscreen, tanning lotion, & aloe!!! Toothbrushes for kids & adults. The list goes on!! A bookshelf of movies, coloring pages, & crayons! The kitchen is fully stocked for meals and even had some cooking spray, aluminum, staple seasonings, coffee, creamer , & paper plates! Having a long stay? Theres a washer & dryer available!! My only “complaint” is there is no vent in the bathroom & the kitchen floor there’s a few spots that the flooring is messed up and would catch our toes if barefoot. The hallways can be a bit tight if you are larger. But, everything was clean , comfortable, & all the pros out weigh any of the bad.. which are very picky and limited. It truly felt like a home away from home!! I’d highly recommend for couples or families.
