This place is great, the only thing is that it's a basement apartment and the upstairs renters were very loud. Also, they have access to a room that is on the other side of this apartments kitchen door and seems to only lock from their side. This apartment was so clean and cozy, we loved it and will stay again when we visit family in Bloomington.

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay on the Ravine. The view was beautiful. Andrew was easy to work with, and we were close to everything. Easy to get to Bloomington or Nashville. We also enjoyed the Butler winery. The unit was nicely updated.A few supplies were missing like dishwashing soap, Kleenex, and laundry soap. But that wasn’t a big deal. We will stay there again.
