New Place! Great Space and location! Converted office space to 3BR 2BA (sleeps 6!) short term rental for folks who need the perfect place to stay for IU events and anything throughout Bloomington! Oh so convenient, clean, cozy, and ready for you! Will you be first? We don't expect event weekends to last long! Reach out with any questions. Happy to help!
Great place to stay in Bloomington, in the heart of Indiana University's athletics area! We have just the spot for you. Located 2 blocks west of IU Memorial Stadium on East 17th, our place is an easy walk to all the athletics and graduation events, and very convenient for any other trip to IU and the Bloomington area! You can see the stadium area from the bedroom window, roughly, well, 3 football field lengths away!
Parking? You bet. Despite being right by all the action, you have parking for 2 cars right across from the unit, not blocks away.. right there!
219 E 17th has 3 bedrooms each with a queen bed, but what's more? Its not just 3 bedrooms. Its a fully self-contained place, no sharing, with its own separate living room, dining, and full kitchen area with a full set of cabinets, a FULL refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and.... oh, and coffee? Of course... both a Keurig and a drip coffee maker for whatever your high octane (or decaf) desires may be! Table behind sofa can be opened to seat up to 6 too. Note, NO the living room coach is not a sleeper sofa. We intend this for up to 6 people, and have not included QSS or other 'people packing' features. Nice place. Perfect location. Comfy. Not for large groups.
You have a set of stairs from the private entry to the living space, and then it is all on one level!
The 3 bedrooms (each with a queen) shared the two full bathrooms (each with a walk in shower and toilet).
Internet & Wifi? You bet. High speed internet from T-Mobile delivered on a nice Eero-based Mesh network to ensure coverage throughout. Smart TV (55" Roku based) in living room to login to your own services. Please note we do NOT provide cable or other television services at this time but you are welcome to use the smart tv to login to your own, or BYO device to have whatever your usual services are.
Share anything? No. Nothing inside, and not the entrance either! You have a private entrance to this apartment. The kitchen, living room, baths, and bedroom are for your exclusive use. Please note that this apartment is an apartment among other apartments and townhomes which means (although this almost goes without saying...) that it shares walls with another place, but in this case, just the folks downstairs, as well as the parking areas and outside common areas. Because this is in the heart of the athletics area, you can expect to be in the middle of all the football, graduation, basketball, soccer, and other action along 17th street. Want to be in the middle of it all, with easy, nearly unparalleled access, this is the one! Want to be isolated, off the beaten path, no one around (and a drive to the action)? Perhaps look elsewhere. :-)
Be ready for, and a short walk from, all the IU action next time you stay in Bloomington! Car? Definitely won't need that to get to the games, homecoming, graduation, whatever you need if its in the IU athletics area! Nice to have a place off street to park it, of course, but oh so nice to not really need it too! Thanks so much! We look forward to hosting you! If you DO have a vehicle or two, no problem! We have parking spaces for up to two vehicles available to our 3BR guests.
Please note, this is Bloomington. Its a college town, and the big box student rental people are taking over. There will be construction in the area. That's the nature of the town. They are not, however, allowed to disrupt your access and enjoyment of our places, and are limited to when they can make noise per the Bloomington Noise Ordinance. If you run into any issues, we'd be happy to run interference for you--just reach out and let us know what's up!
Need something a little smaller? Or a little more room to add to this one!? We have a 1BR right across the street, sleeps two!

We had the best time adn Rick and Susan's place for our July 4th weekend trip to Bloomington. It was very clean and well supplied. We would not change a thing. Communication was great too! Highly recommend! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your place.
Fantastic!
by Christine

It was fantastic! Just needed dish detergent to run dishwasher before we left but other than that it was perfect! π
[π₯° Thanks Christine! Happy to hear you had a fantastic time! Odd about the dishwasher detergent, as we do supply that so I bet it was missed. Usually under the counter. Sorry! Next time, shoot me or the gang a note/text. Happy to drop some by! Sounds like you didn't need it during the stay, just to do the due diligence of running the washer. No worries if so. π All handled! Glad you had a great time! If you think of anything to improve the place, or comms etc, please don't hesitate to reach out. Ditto for a return. I'd be happy to hear from you. Thanks again! π βͺοΈπ΄]

Wow! We booked for a football weekend, and they aren't kidding: this place is SO close to the stadium. It made walking to the game super easy! Clean, comfortable. Nice little extras on arrival.

Perfect IU landing pad
by Jamie
5/5
Perfect for IU trip! Rick and Susan's place is SO close to all Assembly hall and the rest of the IU athletics stuff, and even walkable (a longish walk) to downtown! It was incredibly clean, and ready for us when we arrived. 2 baths made the 3 BR that much more convenient. TV and wifi worked great too! Can't wait to come back!

Rick's place was perfect for our quick trip to Bloomington to visit our IU student. We hope to do it again, and again! Well supplied, and extra space for us to visit with our daughter and her friends! Highly recommend!

Great stay!!!
by Mike
5/5
Stay was great! Everything was as expected for a fun weekend in Bloomington. Only comment was the lock feature was slightly stuck so you had to turn a little harder than normal to lock/unlock place. Once we learned this it was still pretty easy to get in and out.
[π€ Thanks Mike! Missed this earlier with some family kerfuffle! So happy you all had a fantastic time in our Bloomington place! The door is a little tight, so you sometimes, depending on humidity levels too, have to push/pull the door a little to make it easier for the deadbolt to retract/extend. Glad everything else was perfect for you all. Happy to have you again anytime you come to B-Town!
Great stay. Would stay again!
by Crystal
5/5
Great accommodations, recently updated, the living room was larger than the photos, enjoyed the fact that each room had a queen size bed. Would stay there again!

Amazing - best bnb I have been to
by Maria Gracia
5/5
It was amazing. The best bnb I have been to. Very nice host, so responsive and helpful. The flat is beautiful. Everything is new and very clean. Can see mature trees from the bedrooms. I saw a fawn and rabbits from the bedroom window. A/C works really well. TV very big and new. So convenient for Campus since there is a bus for free from the Stadium. It was very quiet. Groceries and CV's Pharmacy near by. I will definitely come back.
[Thank you! Safe travels home. Reach out when back in Bloomington. Best wishes.]

Great place for 4 people & IU sports
by Christopher
5/5
We stayed for two nights to see a Sunday IU basketball game. The apartment is set up very efficiently for its size and has everything that 4 unrelated adults could need (6 if you want to share beds). Three separate bedrooms with doors and queen beds, plus a couch that was comfortable. Just under a one mile walk to the Bloomington town square with restaurants, bars, and shops. Under a 1/2 mile walk to Assembly Hall, no driving or parking at the game necessary. Parking was a little confusing but the hosts cleared it up promptly. It would help to put a large house number by the front door of the unit facing 17th Street. Overall great place, five stars.
Mom's Weekend

Wonderful stay at this location! Rick and Susan were PHENOMENAL hosts!! They were super helpful and periodically checked in making sure all was well/ we had everything we needed. This property perfectly accommodated 6 people for a friends weekend reunion. The property was a short walking distance to IU athletic stadiums and a >10 minute car ride to restaurants on Kirkwood and Downtown— truly a perfect location. Overall, great property, great stay and great hosts!!! Thanks Rick and Susan!!

I've stayed in both this one (a 3 bedroom) and the 1 bedroom across the street. The location could not be better for IU athletics, and the place was very clean.

by David
5/5
Well maintained and nice space. Very clean and nice finishes. Three parking spots was also great. Both Rick and local representation (Elkins) were great. Building looks like an office space on the outside (which doesn’t matter) but the inside was wonderful. I say that about the building because we passed it a few times and the entrance is on the back side of the building. Price was fair for a football weekend. Would definitely stay again.
The place is great and the location is perfect.
