The house was ideal for a small group of high school friends to get together. The lovely backyard was great for relaxing and reminiscing in the evenings. The house is so homey and beautiful and obviously well cared for. It was a wonderful stay and we are looking forward to the next time.

College tour weekend
My son and I came out to West Lafayette to tour Purdue. We needed a convenient location for a jam packed schedule. What an oasis! I didn’t expect to fall in love with this adorable, well appointed and unique craftsman period home. My favorite moments were early morning walks in the charming neighborhood. I’d come back to a fresh cup of coffee and sit outside on the deck surrounded by the sounds of nature in the backyard garden. Peaceful and ready to return. 10 out of 10!

Peaceful Purdue Retreat
This house is in a quiet part of West Lafayette but within walking distance of the Purdue Memorial Union & Stewart Center. Clean and comfortable accommodations made my trip that much better than staying in a hotel. I'll be back!

Purdue visit
Worked great for us! In town with adult son to help him clean out a home which he and his wife had just purchased less than a mile away. Loved the porches and the backyard. Love the details of a craftsman home. Hope to come back.

This property has beautiful woodwork throughout... most appears to be original from 1925 when the home was built. The back yard was amazing. A decent sized fenced in back yard with a bounty of colorful flowers. If staying in or around West Lafayette, this home is an excellent alternative to staying in a hotel.I would recommend this place to anyone.

Great House + Yard
The house is very nice and everything you could want on a stay. We didn't have warm weather else we would have hung out on the back porch in the neat-looking backyard. If we come back to this area I'd feel good using this property again.

Weekend to visit Daughter at Purdue
The house was perfect for a weekend visit to see our daughter attending Purdue. We enjoyed some outdoor meals on the patio and took lots of walks in the neighborhood and to campus. The home is lovely and we had lots of room to spread out during our brief stay. All communication with the owners was promptly responded to. We would stay again!

The cozy home was as beautiful as advertised and impeccably clean. We grilled in the backyard and enjoyed the beautiful garden. The owners were wonderful hosts and contacted me shortly after we arrived to be sure everything met my expectations. Thank you, we will be back soon!

Another great home stay
This was the second home we rented from Jo & Joe. We have enjoyed them both, but my wife really enjoyed this property - the one floor layout, the vintage decor, the beautiful and quirky backyard garden and of course the updated appliances. Great location so close to Purdue campus. We will be back for sure.
