My wife, three kids, and I stayed at the property in May and had a wonderful stay. The house was in very nice condition and was clean for our stay. The neighborhood felt safe and was quiet, even though there are some questionable houses on the street. All in all we would stay here again.

Our visit was a 4 night stay in this precious cottage.
We were visiting with family who live downtown. The house was convenient to downtown area and the interstate. It was very clean and well decorated. Four adults were able to sleep comfortably here.
The neighborhood is older, but very quiet and we felt very safe coming and going as needed.

Had to spend extra money to get TV service. The flooring is horrible. Especially around the refrigerator, seems as if any day it’s going to pop up and injure someone. It’s moist like-cracking- severely dipping. Had to worry about the children.

We booked this home for our family while in town for AAU Basketball tournament. It was super comfy and cozy. It made us feel like we were home. I told my family anytime we visit Indy we will book this house because I loved it so much.
Oh I also work from home and had to work and it was quit and perfect for me get my work done and not feel like I was missing out on all the fun. I worked and relaxed.

A friend and I met here for a reunion and this property was absolutely perfect! It was nice that we each had our own rooms and bathrooms on opposite sides of the house. Everything worked properly, it was well supplied with what we needed to cook meals which saved a lot of money. Beautiful property and I would definitely stay here again when in Indy.

We loved our stay here, it was perfect for my husband and I, our 2 year old, and a friend who was traveling with us. Cute interior and close to fountain square and Downtown.

This is the perfect place for two to four adults to stay, IF none of them need to sleep in the third "bedroom". Not really a bedroom, and the bed there was very not comfy. HOWEVER, everything else was nicely decorated. Know that there is not off-street parking, but we did not have a problem finding parking.

Very nice renovated property. Very comfy and nice distances to food and Indy attractions. There are some run down houses near, but that didn’t bother me, I was happy to be there.

This house was the perfect home base for a fun visit to Indy. Short, easy drive to downtown, the zoo, Newfields, the Fieldhouse, Lucas Oil, Fountain Square, etc. It was so welcoming and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, plus plenty of room for our tween kids to hang out in between activities. We’ve stayed at quite a few VRBO properties in the past, and this is by far our favorite!

My friends and I went to the Colts vs. Patriots football game this past weekend and we had a blast. Only about a 10-15 minute drive from downtown, 30 minute walking distance. The propety itself was very clean and the neighborhood was quiet. Check-in and check-out were easy and the Tamara was very timely with any and all questions that we had during our stay. I would definitely stay here again!

The house is old and has been updated nicely to accommodate guests. The room layout works great for 2 couples to have their own private spaces.
The atmosphere is stylish and comfortable, the furnishings are poorly assembled and some attention to detail could improve the stay, but I am probably more critical than most guests.
Overall a good experience and I would return to this property.

The White Truck VRBO was just the perfect place for my family. The neighborhood was quiet, the home was cozy and clean, and the communication was timely. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out or gather together. Would stay here again.
