Our family had a great time at the house! If you like history, nature, and staying at a place where you want to enjoy doing things with your family on location rather than having to drive different places and paying more money, than this is the place! Campfires, playing board games, fishing , exploring, that's what a family vacation is to me and this house delivers. We had everything we needed and were very greatful to have the opportunity to stay and this home.we have stayed at plenty VRBO homes in Indiana and Kentucky, and my kids said this was there favorite yet! Thanks so much for the memories!

The cabin is minutes from Indy, but it seems as quiet as a cabin in the woods. The pond is right outside the lower level door. The kitchen is well stocked and clean. The kitchen table has a view of the water. Bedrooms and bathrooms are all very clean and comfortable. It was a return trip for us and we would stay here again.

The Hutch House is exactly as described. Richard and Marsha were quick to respond during the booking process and during our stay. The little pond was a great source of entertainment for everyone: from fishing to riding in the boats. My 13 year old daughter caught her first large mouth bass and loved feeding the turtles! We also caught lots of large bluegill and the hybrid bluegills were a surprise with their blue and purple coloring.There was plenty of space for our family of 9 to roam outside or chill inside. The kitchen and pantry were stocked with everything needed for cooking, lots of coffee options, and grilling items. We also loved the fire pit!We will definitely book again!!

The "Hutch House" is a great place to stay if you are looking for rest and relaxation. The home has a lot of character, and the lake view is spectacular. There is a lot of wildlife to enjoy, right from the deck or through the large windows. Richard and Marsha are wonderful hosts. Thank you!

Family vacation

We loved our stay, we felt so comfortable and right at home. This is a beautiful old house with so much room. The view of the pond from the dinning room and the decks is wonderful and relaxing. Our boys fished everyday and night, they caught a few fish. They got a kick out of the pedal boat. It was a great vacation and we would definitely stay again

An amazing getaway

This was a perfect property for what we were looking for. We wanted to be near Indianapolis, but have some space when we weren't in the city. The house is located back in a secluded area and has its very own pond and beautiful grounds to walk. My kids played outside on the swing, collected sticks and rocks, and we all saw lots of fun wildlife like woodpeckers, muskrats, heron, ducks and geese. The little row boat and paddleboat were fun to play in out on the pond. The house itself is 3 stories of rustic beauty - and it was stocked with everythign we could need - even a few food items they left for us in case we had forgotten a meal or two. We were able to really relax away from it all here for a few days. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a getaway in this area.

Weekend Retreat

It was a wonderful location to observe nature from indoors! We were able to photograph and identify 14 different birds, a hare, and many deer! In addition, it was a very comfortable atmosphere to cook, to read, and to watch movies! All of which we did as the temperatures outside were freezing!

Another Dandy!

I so enjoy Hutch House. You feel very private and secluded, without being actually isolated, which since a I travel solo is important. Marsha and Richard are amazing hosts. There was a boiler kerfuffle before I started my visit - they were very communicative and I appreciated it. The birds were so active during my stay - I really enjoyed watching them. It stays on my favorite places list.

Perfect Christmas

We stayed at Hutch House during Christmas week. I brought a small tree, not knowing if the owners had put one up. Not only did they have a beautifully decorated tree, Richard and Marsha had decorations throughout the house. It was beautiful! Such a nice touch. Everything was perfect!
