This was such a cute house for our stay! We were meeting up with family in town and everything was lovely. Plenty of space for everyone to be and the kitchen had the utensils we needed for a short stay. The view of the river was an added bonus.

Exactly as pictured/described. Gorgeous sunlight & river views throughout (especially downstairs). Excellent location. Quiet area. Comfy, cozy home - easy to relax. Beds are as described by other guests - hard but somehow comfortable. Should our oldest choose Purdue, we'll be back for sure!

Great communication, clean house. Struggling with paying 175 for cleaning fee when we had to make sure all furniture was in it’s original location, load & start the dishwasher, and also empty the trash cans. Owner needs to check inside stairs for code compliance. Very short risers and very narrow treads with a lip overhang that makes the usable tread area very narrow. My wife and I are fit, we run and bike, and both of us stumbled coming down the stairs. Me in Friday, her on Saturday. Neither of us were hurt, but the fact that both of us stumbled on the same stairs, suggests the focus should be on the stair riser / treads (run) dimension are actually code compliant.

Great Home!

Our family stayed in this incredibly nice home while visiting West Lafayette! It had everything we needed and more. It is very well put together and very comfortable. We stayed during Christmas week and they were very gracious in putting up a Christmas tree for us to make it feel more like home. Thank you for everything!
