Something to talk about in Haynie's Corner! Walk anywhere, sleeps 6!

Welcome to The Conversationalist, located in the heart of Haynie's Corner Arts District! This 1910 built home is situated on a beautiful street with a unique and unforgettable touch. Each room represents a different decade, from the roaring 20's, 60's groovy, Midcentury Modern, 80's, to Old Hollywood. The house has been recently updated with new flooring, furniture, and paint throughout, ensuring a fresh and comfortable stay.

The entry and dining areas still boast high ceilings, beautiful transom windows, and are presented with a 1920's flair. Table seats 6 comfortably. A bar cart with vintage crystal drink ware is available to our guests for use. Also included are many different options for murder mystery dinner fun!


The Conversationalist is likely the only home in the historic Evansville area with an actual 1970's conversation pit giving it the ultimate cool factor! Equipped with an electric fireplace and a 55" Smart TV this living room offers cozy and unique atmosphere to relax or socialize. Fair warning though, the funky pit can only be accessed by stepping down onto the bench seating.

The first bedroom features a luxurious king-sized platform bed and is styled in a fun Mid-Centry Modern fashion. Available for use is a raised bedside table, two lamps, full-size dresser, and closet.

The second bedroom offers a comfortable queen-sized bed and provides an Old Hollywood Glam feel. This octagon shaped room has loads of natural light which is why we offer blackout shades. There is a tall-boy dresser and raised bedside table in this room.

The third bedroom is a crowd-pleaser with all the 80's babies! A cozy double-sized bed adorned with the fabulous neon and checks we all love. This room houses the washer and dryer also.

A large, fully tiled, walk-in shower is the main attraction in the updated bathroom. Bath comes fully stocked with shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, make-up wash clothes, six sets of towels, and hair dryer.

The fully-equipped kitchen comes with everything you need to prepare a delicious meal, including pots, pans, baking sheets, silverware (8 sets), coffee maker, microwave, plate set for 8, and serving bowls.

Now let's talk about this spectacular location, the back yard leads directly to the public parking next to Sauced in the hip Haynie's Corner district. Guest are just seconds away from the action in both Haynie's Corner, on the Evansville Riverfront, and the walkway district on Main!

Come experience a unique and memorable stay at The Conversationalist!

Perfect Location

If you are looking for a house with a great location, this is your house! We were lucky enough to stay when downtown had a lot of awesome things going on! Although there was a mix up in the reservation (no fault to the host) she jumped right in and made it right! Highly recommend this property for anyone looking to stay in Evansville!

Unique Property

Family loved this property and the location was fantastic. My only complaint was if you were in the bedroom without air conditioning it got rather warm during the night. Rest of the house was fine. However, the property is very unique and loved the different room decor. Everything you needed was there.

Birthday Surprise

I booked this house to surprise my husband for his birthday by having all four of our kids show up as a surprise. The weather took a turn and I wasn’t comfortable having our kids travel that far and possibly get stuck. Liz (owner) stayed in communication with me the entire time. She even went above and beyond to surprise him by having a surprise of her own. My husband and I enjoyed the local eats and had a lovely evening hanging out together in the conversation pit with the fire going. Truly a phenomenal home. Extremely clean and well cared for. Highly recommend!!

Concert at the Ford Center

The place was AWESOME. The front porch has 4 chairs and pillows to sit and have your morning coffee.. that’s what we did! The dinning room is exquisite! With amazing colors on the walls and curtains it brings you back in time. There was a full length mirror in the that helps when getting ready to go out on the town! The conversation pit is awesome. Only problem it is not comfortable!! It’s hard and concrete so you move around a lot. The first bedroom when you walk onto the home is the one my husband and I stayed in was great! There was a fan on the room and the bed was really comfortable. Only issue is we had baby ants in our room. I know it’s spring so I just dealt with it… didn’t bother me. Also I wish there was another side table on the other side of the bed. Had to put my phone and personal belongings on the floor on that side of the bed. The other 2 bedrooms are great and decorated with flare. The kitchen was nice because it was roomy and had an island in the kitchen with gives you more room if you are cooking. The back yard was cute. There was a chair out there to sit and enjoy the day. The home is located on the art district in Evansville Indiana. Walking distance to a really cute corner store, Moe’s Lounge (cigar/ whiskey bar) and Spanky’s Pizza (HIGHLY RECOMMEND). Over all our stay was excellent!! The owner was amazing and answered all my questions when asked and was very friendly!! Will definitely go back if we ever come through Evansville again!!

Great location

2nd year in a row that we have stayed at this property for a dance competition. Family loves the uniqueness of the property and the location is wonderful. Has all the amenities you need. The only con I had was window a/c in the 3rd bedroom sounded like it was dying a horrible death. Thankfully it was cool enough I didn't need to use it.

Great place to stay while in Evansville.

Cute place and neat location. No issues while staying in town for our sons wedding. Liz was very accommodating and quick to resopnd to any questions. The bed was one of the best we have ever had and we have stayed in many VRBOs. Two nights rest just like home. Thank you and I am sure we will be back.

Clean but misleading

The property was very clean and well decorated. It’s a nice place if you only plan to sleep and not lounge/hangout in a group. The “conversation pit” is a hard stoop with carpet over it that isn’t even wide enough to lay on. Owner says it’s padded but it feels like padding under carpet, not actual furniture padding. The living room has the only tv in the house and your only other seating option is a kid sized papasan chair in the corner. Zero couches in the whole place. House was clean but pit smells like kitty litter.
