This was a perfect Bloomington getaway! The neighborhood is quiet and walking distance from downtown, and the house is furnished with everything you could need to be comfortable. The kitchen makes it easy to cook your own meals as well if you don't want to go out. Cyndi was wonderful to communicate with and made the booking and check-in/check-out processes very easy. I highly recommend booking this property if you are in need of a cozy, homey rental, either short- or long-term!
