We stayed here for our daughter's graduation weekend and it worked perfectly. We had plenty of room to spread out vs. staying in a hotel room, and it was easy to get back and forth from campus.

Excellent Rental near Bloomington
Our group absolutely loved our time at the Elm House! Our group of friends reuniting together for the weekend enjoyed all of the amenities on offer, especially the hot tube! The house was very spacious for our groups and fully furnished with everything to cook and grill within the house. We were also impressed by the amount of towels and linens available for our stay. The hot tub robes were a nice bonus too! Unfortunately, we weren't able to enjoy the woods around the property, but the whole area looked beautiful. Also within close distance to Oliver Winery and Bloomington to explore either! Would highly recommend this property and we would stay there again!

Mom's Getaway
We had a great time at Elm House. A group of 7 moms escaping for the weekend. Went to Nashville for the day. House was equiped with kitchen supplies and bathroom towels and was very clean. Plenty of seats for everyone to sit and enjoy our time away. Our biggest regret was not getting out on the trail behind the house!!!

Comfortable house with beautiful grounds
My family lives in Ohio and we meet up regularly with friends who live in Illinois. We split the distance and find places to stay in central Indiana. Our kids are 9 and 6 so we look for places that lend themselves to outdoor adventures. This has been one of our favorites. There are many well-marked trails on the property, streams good for exploring, and a few "nature observation posts" (hunting blinds) to climb. in addition, the laserdisc collection was outstanding. We were able to show the kids the original Star Wars movies as they were before Lucas started tinkering with them. The 9-year-old is also recently obsessed with the 1960s musical Camelot and did a dance of joy when she found it in the library. Amazing. The house itself was very comfortable and had everything we needed for cooking. The hot tub was appreciated after some long hikes.

Our family enjoyed our stay. Highlights included the fire pit, the hot tub, and the hiking. The house had everything you could need: plenty of sheets and towels, dishes, appliances, and lots of room for the 7 of us. Make sure you read the very informative booklet of rules and amenities.

Weekend
Our weekend was wonderful but too fast. Trail was easy to navigate. Cooked out on the grill and enjoyed the back deck. Fenced back yard so no worries about kids. Played games and a few used the hot tub. A very enjoyable weekend!

Very secluded, nice, clean, well maintained.
Was a great getaway, loved the lazer disc player with all the old 80's and 90"s movies, enjoyed the hot tub. The only negative thing was the drive, the roads from little Nashville aren't the greatest but every thing at the house was above and beyond what I expected, if you're looking for a nice quiet place to relax this is it.

Property was adequate but very far off the beaten path. Could not get uber service and very dark winding roads leading to property. Just be aware as I would not want to make this drive in the winter.
