We enjoyed our over night stay. The school house was clean, comfortable, and stocked with all the necessities. The 2 trains that went by were not loud and we were happily surprised how quiet it was considering it is sort of close to a busy road. Would recommend this location if staying in the Lafayette area.

Appreciate the quick response on getting a few items fixed. Couch was comfy and the place had character. Seemed like a cool place for summer or spring with the outdoor fireplace. Easily able to get anywhere in town with-in minutes. Everything was provided so it made it really easy.

The home was super comfy and unique and we had an amazing time celebrating our 20th anniversary! Previous reviews mentioned the trains. Yes, there are some tracks that run along the back property line behind a fence but the home is brick, and while the train horn can be heard, it is not overly disruptive or super noisy as the trains are going through. Yes, there is an old cemetery next door and they didn’t bother us at all. They were very quiet and considerate and excellent neighbors overall. We would definitely stay again and I have already recommended to friends who would love the uniqueness!

The place had charm but it wasn’t enough to make up for the location. The fact the the train tracks are around 40 ft from the back door was challenging. The noise level and vibrations were quite unsettling and a train came by around 10 times in 24 hour period. The road noise is also very loud. Also it was a bit unsettling to be next to a cemetery and across the street from a corrections facility. I didn’t realize it wasn’t near a neighborhood at all.
