The host, Jennifer, was great! Always friendly and quick to respond. The property was well kept and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of dishes, skillets, utensils, etc. The hot tub was clean, well maintained, and great to relax in. We didn’t use the fire pit given the time of year, but it was set up nicely with plenty of seating. You can’t go wrong with this property!

Cute and comfy cabin in a private setting. I personally love the hilly woods outside Bloomington. The complete kitchen and grill was appreciated so I didn’t need to fund every dinner at a restaurant for our group. The place looks like the pictures. A very nice touch was the cabin inside and out was decorated for Christmas.

This was our fifth time trying a VRBO, and this was by far the best! The cabin was clean and tastefully decorated. Convenient to IU campus for attending a football game. Had a minor issue with the AC, but the host was great to work with and quickly resolved the issue. We've already booked this again for next year/.

Hoot Owl Cabin is adorable! We stayed there over IU parents weekend (including the grandparents) and felt cozy and comfortable. The back deck is amazing, and we wished we'd had more time to enjoy it. It felt a teensy bit far from campus, but overall very doable and worth it. Only FYIs: Bring your own toiletries, ground coffee, and half and half so have what you need. We didn't plan properly!

The cabin, yard and hot tub were very well maintained and clean. The furniture is comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. This is an awesome location. It’s close to campus for games and other IU activities but located in a more rural setting that makes you feel like you’re getting away from it all. Very close to Butler winery which we visited and enjoyed. Host responded right away to any question. We will book again!
