Homes in Indianapolis

Beautiful home w/ amenities - Close to Downtown!
What an amazing air bnb. So much space! The kitchen area was wonderful with lots of room and literally stocked with everything you could think of or want! IMMACULATELY CLEAN entire house! Loved all the little reminder notes-- not in your face at all but just cues for little things! The 2 car garage was wonderful and I loved that it was lockable with a code. Overall just so welcoming, roomy, clean, comfortable, lots of space and exactly what we needed after heading to Purdue 3 days in a row! We knew we would come back to comfort! Thank you!!

Private Home on 2 Acres - 3.6mi to Grand Park
Amazing find in Indy!! Just 10 minutes from Grand Park. The lot is private and quiet. The house has everything you need. You will not find a better host anywhere! Bruce was super responsive and kind! I will absolutely stay again if in I’m in Westfield!

This was a beautiful and welcoming home—we truly enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable, cozy, and everything we hoped for. We’d gladly recommend this Airbnb to anyone.

Modern farmhouse in the Woods
Great location, very private! We had plenty of room inside and the kids were able to play outside as well. We loved the back deck!

Hoffman Estates-Large Home close to Grand Park!
There were seven of us, all adults. Most everyone had their own room. The house was big enough that it did not feel crowded at all. Neat up and coming area. This is a secluded house off the main road. Would stay here again.

Westfield’s Maple Haven 4BD 2BA Fenced-In Ranch
Ed’s place was a great home for our family as we waited for our next home to be completed. Our littles loved their room and being bunked together, and how close we were to a park. Neighbors were friendly, home is nearby shopping and dining. The backyard was a great size for our littles and dogs. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend his place to anyone staying in Westfield.
Cabin rentals in Indianapolis

Cowboy Bunkhouse hot tub/lake/farm/nature
Everything was exactly like they said I would definitely recommend this place. When I go back to Indy, I will definitely stay there again.

Timber West Lodge
This cabin was a wonderful place for a family gathering. My family and my sisters’ families got together for a wedding and it was the perfect location for us, as it was close to the wedding venue and the rehearsal dinner location. The cabin had very nice sized bedrooms with lots of space for everyone to sleep and relax, a cozy living area with a fireplace, and an ample kitchen and eating space. We loved it and would definitely recommend for others!

Haven In The City - Noblesville
What an awesome cabin. We loved it! We came to Indy for the MS walk with family, and had to be out the door fairly early on Saturday morning-so it was a short stay, but wonderful! The place was nice and clean, quiet, just an awesome setting! Would definitely recommend and hope to come back again.

Cozy Cabin on Lake front with Hot tub & firepit
We had a great weekend getaway at this Airbnb! The place was very comfortable, clean, and cozy, just what we needed to relax and unwind. It’s in a peaceful location, making it the perfect spot for a short escape. Would definitely stay here again!

Cute little cabin like place with a very responsive and helpful owner. Would definitely stay again if I ever go back to Indianapolis

Unique A-Frame Retreat•Prime Location•Custom Bath
I had an incredible stay at this A-frame Airbnb! The cabin itself is charming, cozy, and beautifully designed, with plenty of natural light and a serene atmosphere. It was the perfect retreat for a peaceful getaway. The hosts were outstanding—extremely responsive and attentive, always quick to answer any questions or offer helpful recommendations. They truly went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing stay in a unique and welcoming space!

Rustic and Cozy Log Cabin with close parking
We really enjoyed our stay. It felt secluded, while being within driving distance to lots of local amenities. There were chickens, geese, and lots of green space for my kids to play and have fun - we even had a fire pit to relax by. Our host was extremely accommodating and friendly. Out daughter accidentally left her earrings after we left, and Mike mailed them back to us. We plan to book again next year when we have another trip planned to the area.

Waterfront getaway *cozy & peaceful*fishing*swings
We had a great weekend at the Tiny Cabin. The house was as described and just enough space for what we needed. We enjoyed the privacy and grilling and eating out in the back. The location was far enough outside the city to enjoy the quiet but close enough to activities and shops we wanted. Only downfall was the hot water in the shower ran out quickly. Otherwise we loved it and would definitely recommend.

Samantha gave amazing instructions on checking in and checking out. The place was easy to find and I liked that there was a private parking lot. It was also close enough to the convention center to take an Uber relatively cheap and still get there pretty quick. I would definitely stay again.

Indy Bliss
We were here for just two nights and loved the space! We felt very safe with the private garage and alarms on the unit, and the house was very easy to find and get into. The location was wonderful as we were very centrally located to everything we wanted to do downtown (we were only ever about 10-15mins away). Arthur and Khristina were very responsive and helpful, and the space was very clean and cozy! The only thing worth noting was that the walls in the unit were very thin and we could hear other tenants moving around and talking during the night/early morning, but Arthur and Khristina did provide earplugs for us to use.

*Luxury Walk in the Park* - King Bed
Amy's Place was the perfect place to visit family in Fishers! The apartment complex is well maintained, quiet, and in a great location for everything Fishers. Amy was great to communicate with and very prompt and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Jason was super responsive and very nice. Home was in a great location in downtown Indy with lots to do. We had a wonderful experience here in Indiana as our daughter's graduation ceremony from IU Bloomington was this weekend and loved spending time in Bloomington and Indianapolis. Thank you Jason for a wonderful experience.

King Bed-* Broad Ripple*
Perfect place to stay right in the heart of Broad Ripple. Wonderful to have garage parking available. Easy access to the Monon Trail and wonderful restaurants. I would definitely stay here if I visit again!

Your guide to Indianapolis
All About Indianapolis
Nestled amid Indiana’s beautiful green pastures and farmland, Indianapolis is one of the largest cities in the Midwest and serves as the state’s capital and cultural hub. Its streets are full of soaring skyscrapers, grand government buildings, and Art Deco masterpieces. A variety of vibrant murals add splashes of color to the urban landscape, and the riverfront promenade offers sweeping views of the White River. An eight-mile walking trail connects Indy’s cultural districts, a convenient thoroughfare for exploring the city’s top attractions without getting behind the wheel of a car.
Then again, cars helped put Indianapolis on the map. Just beyond downtown, you’ll find its legendary speedway, home to one of the country’s most famous motor circuits. People come from all over the world to catch a race here and visit the on-site museum. If motorsports exhaust you, Indianapolis and its surrounding area has plenty of green space to go around, including a handful of top-notch parks like Brown County State Park and Mounds State Park, where you’ll find well-marked trails full of locals hiking and biking in no particular hurry.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Indianapolis
Indianapolis experiences cold winters, hot summers, and mild temperatures in the spring and fall. Although the weather in Indiana can be extreme, there is no bad time to secure an Indianapolis vacation rental. During the spring, summer, and fall, you can take advantage of the walkable downtown and riverfront promenade and put some mileage in on the nearby hiking trails. In winter, the downtown lights up in a sea of Christmas lights, and you can go sledding on one of the many hills or lace up your ice skates for a whirl around one of the city's many outdoor skating rinks. Indianapolis hosts several city-wide festivals and events, including a lively St. Patrick's Day Festival in March, a celebration of independent film in April, and a world-famous car race in May with more than 50 events and programs. In August, the Indiana State Fair rolls out 17 days of concerts, carnival rides, and high-caloric snacks like deep-fried cheesecake bites.
