(Art) Was Ready for It…
My husband and our friends (8 total) stayed at this so very spacious property for the Taylor Swift concert weekend and loved every bit. Art was quick with the communication and even let us check in a little early with part of our party arriving earlier in the day. We would definitely stay at this lovely historic home again.

Not what we were expecting, but hindsight is 20/20
We knew that staying in a 100+ year old house would have its quirks, but I wish I had known: the house is next to a highway & train tracks (train honks at night). At least one of the bedrooms and bathrooms are windowless (thus poor ventilation). One of the rooms has two bunkbeds and the washer/dryer and the water heater... it's a utility room. The bathrooms and shaggy carpets need a deep clean and/or updates. Towels were old and raggedy, some bleach stained. What felt most deceptive was a laminated card in the kitchen asking guests to leave a 5-star review in exchange for a $600 gift card. So in hindsight, I would have had more realistic expectations if I didn't rely on reviews, and if I thought more about the fact that the listing does not include photos of all rooms. I did not contact the host about my concerns, as I felt like no immediate change would impact our stay. What was good: Check-in/out process was easy. Location is walkable to some nice cafes and restaurants. Enjoyed the board game selection.

Very Accommodating host
The host was easy to get in touch with and went above and beyond for our special circumstances. The house is a historical home over 100 years old, is spacious and provides easy access to downtown. The house was basically clean and towels and sheets smelled clean. However, it could use a deep cleaning; the house smelled musty. There are some things that would make the house nicer: removing the carpet and replacing it with wood or laminate, making small repairs to door handles and locks, addressing the moldy smell in one of the top floor bathrooms, and updating some of the worn art. The bathroom on the middle floor curtains are see through at night. Adding a second refrigerator would better match the number of persons the house can accommodate.

Indy Family Fun
Our 17 family members, ages 10 through 79, spent the week that included the 4th of July. We could watch several firworks displays from the corner by our home. The home is a very old historic 3 story house with plenty of bedrooms for all. It was called the Raggedy Anne home and there were alot of pictures, dolls and other memorabilia of the Raggedy Anne doll. The location was good in that it was close to a lot of restaurants, breweries and wineries. Some of the breweries were within walking distance. Several restaurants were also close enough to walk to. We all enjoyed ourselves. We found enough restaurants to accommodate all of us. We especially had fun at the Garage Food Hall, a large building with a collection of diverse eateries. We split up in four groups and played their Trivia game. One of our groups came 1st and another was 3rd. Lot of family fun. The only major issue was the area was under construction with several street closures and noise. This is only temporary so we will still consider returning. .

This house had a great location and was HUGE! Best part was it was very quiet! There were 10 of us here and when you went to bed tug couldn’t hear anyone who stayed up! The restaurant right next door was really good and very convenient!

Family Christmas Gathering
We had a Christmas family reunion of 20 adults. The house was perfect for us in the sleeping space, kitchen space, and very large family room to watch football games and large dining room for game playing (and eating). Even though it was chilly, we spent time playing games in the outdoor space as well and sitting around the fire. The house was well equipped with seating, bedding, towels, kitchen equipment, games, and books. Loved it so much that we want to book again next year.

Disappointing
Heavy highway construction within 20 yards of house. Not disclosed on VRBO website. Steps from every room to another. Dangerous for us…six 74 year olds Air conditioning didn’t work on second floor on first night-85+ degree weather. Property manager quite responsive in getting air conditioning working for the final two nights.

Wonderful large downtown home
The Raggedy Ann House was wonderful! We were in Indy for a trade show downtown, and needed lots for room for team members rotating in throughout the week. We filled all 10 bedrooms! The backyard was perfect for evening gatherings around the fire pit. We loved it! The only downside is no en suite bathrooms. Other than that, five stars! Thank you Art!

Final Four Tickets Canceled
I rented a property in Indianapolis, Indiana for the NCAA Men's Final Four Basketball Tournament. As a result of the global pandemic, tickets were not available for the final four. I requested a refund of my deposit. The property manager responded that this was a non - refundable rental. I found this response to be ridiculous. We have a group of six gentlemen that travel to the Final Four every year. Last year I booked a VRBO property in Atlanta but again had to cancel as the tournament was canceled. The property owner was gracious and refunded my entire deposit. In my opinion, the property manager in Indianapolis is classless and does not represent VRBO in a positive light. I look forward to your response. Thank you and have a great night.
