The Indie Oasis

Welcome to The Indie Oasis in Fountain Square!

Hey there! We’re Steph and Collin, Indy natives, high school sweethearts with two young kiddos and a shared passion for adventure. We’re the co-hosts for this home!

It’s our mission to create inspiring, 5-star worthy travel experiences for guests at any of our properties and we are SO STOKED to welcome you to what we think is the coolest city in the Midwest.

Before you arrive we wanted to share some helpful info for you in planning your trip! We’ll send more details on the house, check-in, and check-out instructions closer to your stay.

The Location

Our location is PRIME. You’ll be minutes to Indy hotspots like Lucas Oil Stadium, Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Indianapolis Zoo, Indiana State Museum, Newfields, and Victory Field to name a few.

If you’re flying in, we’re about 15 minutes from the airport.

You'll technically be located in the Fountain Square neighborhood, one of Indy's most coveted for dining and entertainment!

*You will want to Uber or have a car to get around. There is plenty of street parking available for you.
