This was a beautiful cabin. The host was very accommodating and helpful. My only issue was the additional 75 pet fee when I got to the property. I didn’t see that in the initial advertising, and felt blindsided. But everything else was 5 star!

Great little cabin the woods! We enjoyed the screened in porch and the peace and quiet of the seclusion. It was a short drive to explore Nashville and the state park. We took in a concert at the Brown County Music Center which was also close.

Great property. Very secluded and quiet. Close to Nashville, which has a large selection of craft type shops and a great art presence. Brown County State Park is only a few more miles from town which offers beautiful views, very good hiking and mountain biking. The cabin is rustic but quite comfortable. The bed is probably the most comfortable we’ve had at a vacation rental. Would definitely stay again!

Our stay was everything I could have asked for. The cabin was super cozy and quaint. We loved being able to bring our dog along for his first vacation. Felt like a home away from home.
