There were a couple of things we found that needed to be updated from the current listing. The most important is that the stairs down to the basement are now located within the main house. That was a plus, since we stayed in December. Also bring your media subscription log-ins for the televisions. Very clean and in a great location close to ISU campus, if you are visiting your student.

It was exactly as advertised. The cottage was super clear and nicely decorated. The property host communicated well and was super responsive. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your wonderful home. We will definitely stay there again when we travel to Bloomington. Thanks again. ##### Kaye H.

The only drawback was the 3rd bedroom, extra bathroom and sofa sleeper room was in a locked basement below the main house. This area wa super cold and was not called out in the listing. We feel this was "missed opportunity in the actual listing. Basically a bait and switch. ##### Jerri C.

Communication was great! The house was easy to get into and had the space we need. Although I read there was a basement door, you don’t realize the impact until you are there. I would say the equivalent of staying in a hotel where half of your family is in the nice room and half are on the next floor. We were all adults, so it was ok, but it was an inconvenience to need to walk around to the front of the house late at night or early in the morning when everyone was asleep because the back sliding door does not have an electronic keypad. If a keypad was added to the sliding door, that would be a big win! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location Disliked: Communication #### Disappointed The stay was fine however the host told us there was a key to basement fill free to use it and now is trying to charge me extra for using it 😡 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Cabin On The Lake Is Your Own Hideaway On A Private 10 Acre Lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hanover-Hotels-Cabin-On-The-Lake-Is-Your-Own-Hideaway-On-A-Private-10-Acre-Lake.h33482342.Hotel-Information) > - [The "Big House" with..
