More than just a place to stay.
Thoughtfully curated. Distinctly Yours.
To us, hosting is about more than providing a place to land—it’s about creating an experience that starts before you book and leads to a space you will genuinely enjoy being in. Every home is intentionally designed to feel warm, comfortable, and lived-in, with details that elevate your stay without overcomplicating it. Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or something longer, our goal is simple: help you feel at home while making the most of where you are.

Some kind words from our guests
“A great location and lots of space! Very clean and my husband claims the bed and pillows were some of the most comfortable he has ever slept on! Michelle was so helpful and very hospitable-gave great recs! Although we had our four small children here, I could see this being a great space for a girls’ trip or a couples’ vacation spot. Check it out next time you need a place to stay downtown Indy!”
— Lauren, March 2026“The townhouse is tastefully remodeled and in a great area of town. Our boys enjoyed playing the board games as well. We took advantage of the protected bike lanes to get to parks, downtown, and the zoo with our boys. The bottleworks area has everything you need for dining, drinks and entertainment.
Michelle is extremely responsive and one of, if not the best, host we have ever had at a short term rental.”
— Daniel, April 2026“Second time staying at Michelle’s, it was just as lovely as it was last time. Will absolutely be back on future Indy trips for as long as they will keep hosting us! ☺️”
