The Time of our Lives

This is the third time we’ve rented Front House and it just gets better! The hosts have anticipated every want/need a guest could possible have. From ironed linens to coffee makers in every bedroom, Front House delivers. Are you a bird watcher? You’ll wake up to bird song! Need some privacy? Decks, porches, and game rooms await! It is definitely the best place we’ve ever stayed! Highly recommend!

Best VRBO ever!

This is by far the best family vacation we have had at a VRBO. The host was the sweetest, most helpful host. Beautifully decorated with interesting treasures everywhere. Great pool, games, fishing and we never had a dull moment. Cleanliness is a high priority. I would highly recommend this lovely home.

Awesome vacation spot!

This is a wonderful home and perfect for a family vacation. So much to offer for all ages. We really enjoyed the pool and the game room. There is a bit of street noise some days, but with the music going by the pool we could drown that out!! Fun, Fun, Fun!! Becky was great to work with - took great care of us!

Your very own private resort/lodge

We had our family golf outing this year at this amazing property! The pool/ fishing pond/ Astro turf play area/arcade in the lower level kept the kids HAPPY! and expansive decks off the back made for a resort feel! The incredible property had trails and a large dam made of huge blocks of stone that was lighted at night! We were lucky to experience a good rain on one evening that turned the dam and the woods and creek channels into a Jurassic park feel! I get goose bumps thinking about it! The hosts Becky and Bob were VERY accommodating on our stay! Were already making plans for next year…Becky,,,,,your the best😘

Perfect Getaway

This was our first experience staying at a VRBO. We were impressed with Bob and Becky's attention to details, promptness and retro theme. Home was meticulous and met all of our needs. Their suggestions for dining options were excellent. We would definitely recommend the Front House and would return for another perfect getaway!

Best Place for large groups in Indianapolis!

Front House is an exquisite property not far from Geist Reservoir. It’s 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms easily accommodate large groups. The retro decorated property is charming, spacious and beautifully appointed. Multiple decks, pool, hot tub and stocked pond add to the fun! Hosts Bob and Becky are the BEST!

Great home and amenities

We were a group of 4 parents with high school age teens in town for a sport tournament. We wanted a home large enough for all to have space but set up for kids to relax In between matches. This home was perfect! It is well cared for and well appointed. The pool area was great, kitchen well stocked, the beds were comfortable. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Becky was great to work with.

We had a family reunion with my adult family and my two young children. Everyone from my 87 year old father to my 5 year old twins had a wonderful time. The pool was a hit and the house was even better than the pictures. We hope to book again next year.

AAU Basketball weekend

Coming from Maine a few of the kids dads decided on The Front House for our weekend instead of the hotel the team was staying at. Turned out to be the BEST decision. Amazing home/house, plenty of room and was just perfect for us. Would highly recommend The Front House to anyone looking for a stay in the Indianapolis area!!

Work Trip

We stayed at The Front House with 5 co-workers for an event in Anderson, Indiana. The house was amazing, we had plenty of room to team build as well as get away and have private accomodations. It was very clean, had everything thing there you could think of to make the stay perfect! The property is situated between beautiful tall tress and a great pond with fountain. The owners were great to work with and super responsive. We hope to stay at this property again in the spring. We loved everything about the home and our experience there! Thank you for having us!

Amazing 🤩

There are not enough positive adjectives in the dictionary to describe this wonderful house and the owners of this wonderful house. Just like the other reviews say, this place is the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. The owners, Bob and Becky are truly amazing people. The home has everything you need and did not miss one detail. My whole family just wanted to live there permanently and never go home. This place is a real gem.
