Clean, convenient 2 BR near Bloomington
We stayed here for 3 nights for IU graduation. This place was really great - 2 bedrooms, a nice living room, a full kitchen, and a really cool deck out back. Only 1 bathroom but really not a big deal. Good location, it's a quick 15 minute drive to IU. The unit was very clean, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you might need. My only suggestion would be to put a light or reflector on the street so you don't miss the driveway - we came in at night and we passed it a couple times before we figured it out.

A Great Cozy Cabin
We loved Camp Monroe. Its nestled right off a main road coming out of Bloomington. Super convenient and close to any needed shopping and entertainment. The house was very clean, updated, with a lot of amenities. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck and looking out over the woods. We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect for a simple getaway!
This was perfect for our family, including kids of all ages. Open, clean, easy to check in and check out. Loved the pizza place across the street and it was a quick drive to places. I wouldn't say it has views, but the forest in the back creates privacy and you feel close to nature. We will definitely stay again!
Great place to stay while in town for a weekend! Clean, new , easy to find. & get to downtown. Would stay again!
WiFi TV had trouble playing the football game. Didn’t try it for anything else.
The property was clean, welcoming, and cozy. It was a wonderful place to rest and relax during a very busy weekend. The back deck offered a relaxing atmosphere and wonderful views. The inside of the property offered a comfortable bed and a relaxing atmosphere as well. I would highly recommend this rental.
Could of had a fire pit , outside barbecue grill. The rest was perfect!!

Very nice place. Enjoyed hiking the nearby trails and very convenient to Bloomington and Nashville. Right on the highway but the back faces a wooded ravine. We had three deer visit the deck both mornings we were there. We will stay here again. Owners were very nice and helpful with advice on what to do in the area.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. The cottage was clean, cozy and felt like home. It had everything we needed for a weekend away. The views were incredible and area was peaceful. The owner was amazing with her communication and recommendations on where to eat and shop. We would definitely stay again.
This property is very clean, great view off the deck, and the owner was in communication with me both prior to check-in and at check-out. We will be back!
The house is really nice. The beds are very comfortable. Everything is new and tidy.
The house needs a few finishing touches. For example there is no chopping board and no knives to cut food. No saucepans. There are no lamps and the lights are very bright halogen bulbs, so the lighting is quite severe. But I am sure these things will be fixed soon.
It is located right on the highway (15 feet back from the road) so the traffic noise is quite disrupting at night and on the back verandas.
But overall it was a nice place and we enjoyed our stay
We found this cabin nestled in the woods right off the main road by Monroe Lake to be a perfect location. We were pleasantly surprised to find fresh flowers, a frig filled with bubbly and a yummy dessert. The cabin was cozy with every amenity needed. Close proximity to Lake Monroe and Bloomington. Also, a great pizzeria right across the street. Host was very responsive and would definitely stay there again.
