The Northside Cottage | Ideal Indy Location | BBQ
Summary:
Welcome to the Northside Cottage, a private and peaceful Indy retreat. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, this beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow combines comfort, style, and convenience near Broad Ripple and all the top Northside attractions. Enjoy the modern amenities, gas grill on the back deck, basketball hoop, and a restful atmosphere, all while being close to everything Indianapolis has to offer.
The Space:
Inside, the home features two comfortable bedrooms, each with a queen-size bed, plus a queen sleeper sofa in the living room, allowing the space to comfortably accommodate up to six guests. The single bathroom includes a full bathtub, and the open eat-in kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, and all the essentials you need for home-cooked meals.
This cozy bungalow is full of inviting spaces to relax and entertain. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine on the beautiful screened-in front porch, perfect for catching sunsets. Out back, the large deck is ideal for grilling and chilling, with patio furniture and a BBQ grill provided. There’s also a private paved area with a basketball hoop, making it a fun and functional outdoor space.
Tastefully updated, the home offers modern comforts including air conditioning, heating, a TV, and a laptop-friendly workspace. You'll find thoughtful touches like hangers, wine glasses, a blender, a toaster, and more to make your stay feel like home. Parking is convenient, with space in the driveway, rear parking behind the house, and an additional street spot in front. Self check-in is easy with a lockbox located on the front porch.
Location-wise, it doesn’t get much better. You're minutes from all the action in Broad Ripple—just down the street from popular spots like The Vogue, Broad Ripple Park, the Moustrap Bar, and the Monon Trail. Grocery stores like Meijer, Kroger, and Target are nearby, and BW3 is right across the street.

The check in process was easy, except I had to hunt to where they kept the lockbox. Upon entering the home, you knew it was old and not updated. The appliances looked as if they were purchased in a swap meet, and the furniture in a second hand store. One bedroom mattress felt as if though it were cement. Also, online they bragged about having “a lot” of coffee, but yet the coffee maker did work. The host very kindly replaced it. We also had to ask them to send over a broom, so that we could clean up after ourselves. To make matters worse, the home was diagonal to a tire shop that opened at 7:00 a.m. and started playing their music to almost full volume. I would not recommend this home to anyone who desires a comfortable, quiet stay.
