A Quiet and peaceful Fourth at Blue River Valley Farm

Beautiful getaway!

My husband and I stayed for a little getaway and had a very relaxing time. Our first night was incredible as we soaked in the hot tub under a blanket of stars. We enjoyed walking the property's trails, preparing all of our meals in the well stocked kitchen, and making a warm fire in the wood stove. We felt rejuvenated at the end of our stay. Ashira was a wonderful host and very attentive. Thanks for a great stay!

Quiet Retreat

We had an amazing stay at Blue River Valley Farm. The house was clean and cozy, and we enjoyed exploring the property as well as taking some time to unplug and just relax. The host, Ashira, was super helpful and responsive and even took care of our dog while we went into Louisville for the day. If you are looking for a nice quiet weekend near Louisville, this is a great place to stay!

Beautiful scenery and a great 4 legged host

This place was wonderful to unplug and catch up with family. Patchy, their little dog, was a great little host and companion while we were there. He joined us on our walk down to the water. It was fun to look for fossils and shells, just listen to the water, and skip rocks. I would get this place again if our family wanted to stay again!

A beautiful peaceful property

It was the perfect place to unwind and relax after spending our days at the Kentucky Derby. The drive to Louisville was about 45 mins, mostly rural areas and not much traffic. The property is beautiful and peaceful. My favorite part was relaxing in the hot tub after busy days, looking up at the stars and listening to nothing but the evening air.

Nature getaway with conveniences of home

I cannot say enough. We will be back. The property is amazing, 10 minute walk to the river. No one is allowed to build on the river or have stairs, so they have a “natural” path with dug out steps with flat rocks. It’s about a 10-15 foot decent. Worth every step! We tied a rope across and tied our tubes up and floated for the week. The beds were comfortable, bedding was good, towels provided, and all your basics at your fingertips. The grocery stores were 15 minutes away and the size of a large pharmacy. The hot tub was perfect, the water pressure in the shower was good. Ashira and the dogs were very welcoming and helpful.

Awesome place to unplug!

Absolutely loved our stay. Should’ve stayed longer. The property was great and we thoroughly enjoyed hiking and exploring the entire property. The walks to the river to enjoy the scenery were very nice. Ending each night with a fire in the fire pit and a soak in the hot tub we’re just what we needed. Communication with the owner was very good and she provided us with farm fresh eggs from her chickens and wood for the fire pit. Loved just sitting on the back porch listening to nature with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. We will be back.

Great place to unwind

Our family had a wonderful time unwinding and enjoying the beautiful nature on the property. The kids loved taking walks through the woods and the dog loved swimming in the river. The walking trails were maintained really well and the beautiful view from the back deck was so tranquil! My husband and I got a much needed break from work, really appreciating the lack of WiFi and spotty cell service 😁. After a difficult year it was so nice to be able to disconnect and spend time together as a family. The property owners were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying at this property with your family!

Back to Nature July 2020

We had great time. Close to southern IN Cave country, property is secluded and just what we needed to get away from it all, but close enough (20 min) to get to city. We swam in stream, got to feed the chickens with the owner, hike the property and the kids got to run around and be kids. Back to nature trip. Owners leaves in another house on the large property if we needed them, but left us alone and did not even know they were there except for checking in and gong to feed the chickens. Will definitely return.

Great farm escape!

My family (kids 9,7,5) and I really enjoyed our time on the farm. The 120 acre property has much for kids to explore including a clean and clear river, chickens (with fresh eggs for breakfast!), several dogs, trails, beautiful vegetable gardens and flowers. We spent our mornings and evenings on the front and back covered porches and watched the kids play before dinner. The house sits atop rolling hills and has cold central A/C! We had a campfire and soaked in the hot tub too. The house is well-stocked, has plenty of space and lots of old farmhouse charm. Ashira is a very helpful and responsive host. We hope to come visit again!

Cute and cozy

The property and home are absolutely beautiful!! Hiking trails lead back to a river, very peaceful and calm location. A few things to note: Property managers were present to mow the property, while we were in the hot tub and one day to harvest lavender. The hot tub didn't work well, there was a constant error on the control panel. Which was fine because it wasn't very clean and the water was a little slimy so we didn't stay in long. The beds are not very comfortable. Hiking trail that leads to the river, described to us as a "small hill". I know everyone's perception is different but this was not a small hill!! It was a very angled decline with metal posts spaced just enough apart from the trees and rocks to guide you down and up again. We did it, it was beautiful!! Just wanted to give a different perspective of the "small hill" for those who may have challenges with mobility and age groups. Overall we had a fantastic time!! It was quite and peaceful, shared lots of laughs and created new memories. Thank you for the hospitality.
