Before & after of Arcade House parlor room… there were moments we thought this room might never come together. 😅

We kept tweaking. Reworking. Second guessing. Trying different layouts, lighting, textures, colors… over and over again until it finally clicked.

What used to feel tired and forgotten now feels cozy, fun, historic, and full of personality. The stained glass, exposed brick, vintage radio, moody lighting… this room fought us a little, but damn was it worth it.

Sometimes the best spaces don’t happen instantly. You just keep showing up until the vision finally works. 🎮🏡

What started as a major rehab turned into one of the most fun stays in Bloomington-Normal. We kept the character, cranked up the nostalgia, and built a space made for movie nights, arcade battles, hot tub hangs, and memories with your people.

This house was rough when we bought it. Now it’s pure fun.

“Are you sure we should buy this house?”
… literally everyone in 2018… including us. 😅

At the time, this backyard looked more like a cleanup project than a destination.

But one crazy idea, a lot of late nights, and a little vision later… it became movie nights under the lights, backyard hangs, hot tubs, laughter, and memories for thousands of guests. 🌴🎬✨

Proof that sometimes the worst-looking projects turn into the best stories.

We bought the house nobody wanted.

At the time, it looked more like a teardown than the beginning of a business. Most people saw problems. We saw potential.

One project turned into another… and somehow that little “what if” became Bloomington Retreats.

Now these spaces host birthdays, reunions, date nights, graduations, and memories for thousands of guests every year. Pretty wild honestly.

Proof that sometimes the ugliest beginning creates the best story. ✨

Stage 1 is officially underway… 👀

This little corner is getting transformed into something fun at Arcade House and we wanna hear your wild guesses before the reveal. 👇

What do you think is coming next?

Wrong answers are honestly encouraged. 😂

Tiki bar?
Mini golf?
Outdoor movie zone?
Secret speakeasy?
Hot tub upgrade?
Something completely ridiculous?

Drop your guesses below. Whoever gets closest earns serious bragging rights. 😎

Hosting isn’t always easy, and honestly, we’ve been through a lot lately behind the scenes. That’s why this handwritten note from a guest meant so much to us. ❤️

Moments like this balance out the stressful days and remind us why we do it. We’re incredibly thankful for guests who appreciate the creativity, heart, and work that goes into Bloomington Retreats.

Kindness goes a long way. 🙌

STAY DIFFERENT THIS SUMMER ✨

Skip the boring hotel room.
Book the hot tub.
Book the tiki bar.
Book the late-night laughs, movie marathons, golf battles, and “this place is insane” reactions.
