Last min get away

This place was perfect. Not fancy but more than adequate with lots of towels, dishes, kitchen supplies and perfectly clean. Would definitely return and tell others about this place if they were visiting Turkey Run.

Loved the whole property.. Everything was unique, beautiful and comfortable! There was 4 of us and the apartment was the perfect size for us.. felt like home! An awesome well designed home! Could have spent days enjoying the history of the school and admiring the business venue. The gym and games in the hall were so much fun!! After a day at Turkey Run we would come back have amazing laughing fun!!! Loved it!! One bedroom used to be the principles office and our grankids were in that one.. lots of jokes about that. Staying at this quaint apartment made our vacation perfect and we cant wait to come back! Thanks Charles for always being available and the wonderful welcome gift!

We were very impressed with the way the place was set up and how clean it was. We had a great stay despite the open house that was being held there one of the nights. We were notified ahead of time and it wasn’t a hindrance at all. We also had a nice safe place to keep our boat too. Thank you Charles, we’ll be back!

Quick trip to Shades State Park

I visit the area about once a year. I often camp, and on shorter trips I’ve stayed at a hotel in Crawfordsville until this year. The Schoolhouse property was perfect for my need. Right off 47 in Waveland, very convenient for getting to Shades or Turkey Run State Parks. Quite a unique property, it was super comfortable and clean. I am already planning next year’s stay here. It was perfect for my needs.

All we needed

Nothing fancy here, but the property had everything we needed (except a hair dryer, which we happened to bring along so it wasn't a problem) for a short stay, plus it was fund to stay in what used to be a school. Ingenious redevelopment of this property to put a solid structure to good use. Best of luck with success with the property!

Hidden gem!

We stumbled on this VRBO property while looking for somewhere to stay close to Turkey Run State Park. It exceeded our expectations in so many ways! Very clean, and the kids were tickled by the extra access to the gym and game area. It was a very easy drive to both Shades and Turkey Run, and the one morning it rained there were DVDs provided that kept us all content to hang out inside watching a movie and playing. Overall it was a unique and cool VRBO that we'll be saving for a repeat trip in the future!

Unique Property

This is a unique property that allows you to use some of the ancillary features at the facility. We really enjoyed playing pool and shuffleboard. The site is located in the middle of covered bridge country and near Shades and Turkey Run and was a great base for us.

Unique place to stay

We decided at last minute to stay here instead of camping at Turkey Run due to weather uncertainties. It was a fun, memorable place to stay. Perfect for my husband and I plus our dog. Bed was comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. Unique way to convert the administration offices of an elementary school into an apartment. Close to both Shades and Turkey Run!

So Happy We Found This Place

This was our second stay at Schoolhouse BNB and we are hoping to make it an annual tradition. Love the amenities of the schoolhouse and appreciate the mix of modern design with the original school touches. Might not be everyone’s taste but for those looking for a fun outdoorsy trip to the Turkey Run area, it’s perfect. Conveniently located by a few parks. The town of Waveland itself does not have much to offer but the proximity to many attractions makes it well worth it. The owner of this property is very receptive and attentive. Looking forward to making more memories here in the future!

Perfect weekend getaway for the family

Staying at the Schoolhouse was a wonderfully unique experience, a fully furnished apartment inside the office of an old elementary school. Charles, property owner, was great with communications and hospitality. Super family friendly and pet friendly with seemingly endless amenities, great location near two state parks, Waveland Lake and canoeing/kayaking on Sugar creek. Walking distance to community park, public library, quaint downtown restaurants and shops. Highly recommend!
