About this property

Peaceful Wayside Cottage in the country 5 miles north of Nashville, IN!

The Wayside Cottage is a charming Cape Cod-style vacation home on five acres. Relaxing is easier than ever with an expansive backyard, a large covered porch, and a wraparound deck. On one level, you'll find the living room, kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms (both with queen-size beds), and one full bathroom. In addition, two twin beds, plenty of play space (toys and games included!), and a gate at the top of the stairs make the loft an excellent place for kids. It takes just 10 minutes to get to the Wayside Cottage from Nashville. It's easy to get here, there, and everywhere. Less than five minutes away are Bill Monroe Music Park and Brown County Dragway; the entertainment options are endless. Want to enjoy a day on the lake? Lake Lemon is less than 10 miles away, so bring your boat over; there is plenty of room to park it at the cottage in the circular drive. While the Wayside Cottage may not have internet, the cell coverage is excellent!

Great spot.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property is peaceful and quiet. I only have the rental a 4 because a lot of windows were unlocked & it’s unclear if the door code is changed between rentals. Kitchen was well stocked & beds were comfy. (One soft one firm) If the code isn’t reused, I would come back. Great location for brown co.

Mixed Experience

The house itself is very nice, management was very accommodating when I needed to pay a day after the initial due date, and the house has good view of the countryside--there is a huge "Ultra MAGA Country" display of some kind not far down the road, flying a confederate flag, which caused us some discomfort. The neighbor's horse got out and into the front yard of this property as my adult child and their wife were finding locations for photos in their PhD graduation regalia. The horse got quite close to them before being regained. Then the neighbors called the management and said WE were messing with THEIR animals and on THEIR property, which was untrue. The shower was inside a very high bathtub with no grab bars or non-slip material in the tub and felt quite unsafe. The cold water in the shower was only a trickle, making the whole shower unusable. The house gave us a place to sleep and eat, but was not the fun, cozy getaway we were hoping for on our special weekend. We did leave feedback on the form provided in the house regarding these issues and hoped to hear from someone before leaving this rating.

We truly enjoyed all that Nashville had to offer, from the stores, to the wineries and distillery and the food! Not a long drive into town from the cottage.

Great private getaway

about 12 minutes from the Brown County State Park gate. very nice and private with a wonderful hot tub. Every step was very easy. Be warned that a neighbor a few houses to the south flies a lot of racist flags, if that is something that would concern you.

Great cottage just outside of Nashville

The house was clean and had all of the amenities that we needed. It could use some minor updates, but we enjoyed our stay very much. It is a short, but beautiful, drive to the main strip of Nashville.
