### Covered Bridge Retreat (on Big Walnut Creek)

About this space  
Private, charming, and unique, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath bungalow retreat sits above picturesque Big Walnut Creek by an historic covered bridge. Fish, kayak, or swim in the creek, dine or sun on the deck overlooking the water, watch the birds, hike, and revive. The spacious property is a mile from Hall Woods Nature Preserve, 20 minutes from DePauw University, and 50 minutes from Indianapolis.  
The space  
Special features include a master bedroom with wooden vaulted ceiling and small deck; a bedroom with a writer's desk against a picture window; a relaxing claw-foot tub in one bathroom; a rustic den with decorative fireplace and PS4, opening into a small screened-in porch on one wall and the deck overlooking the creek on another. Lush surroundings on all sides, towering sycamores, two-level deck with umbrellas, dining table, and lounge chairs, a basketball hoop over a concrete driveway, and a fire pit in the back yard, all fronting Big Walnut Creek, with an area to load kayaks in or out just over the bridge. (It is our home, so please accept a few family photos and personal items here and there.) Please see "Amenities" for more details.  
Guest access  
Guests have full access to the creek, as well as to the wide open mowed area across the bridge, from which you can either swim in the deeper water under the bridge, or access a pebbly beach, perfect for playing, skipping rocks, wading, and exploring. The house is down an asphalt driveway, with parking for three-four cars.
