About this property
9 Oaks Log Cabin
A Private Log Cabin Retreat Surrounded by the Hoosier National Forest
Welcome to 9 Oaks Log Cabin of Brown County, a spacious and beautifully crafted retreat set on 8.67 secluded acres within the Hoosier National Forest. Surrounded by hundreds of acres of untouched wilderness, this inviting log cabin offers the rare combination of peaceful privacy and modern comfort, creating the perfect place to reconnect with nature while enjoying the best of Brown County.
From the moment you arrive, the quiet beauty of the forest sets the tone for your stay. The property is known for frequent wildlife sightings, including deer that wander through the land each day, along with mature persimmon trees that add to the natural charm of the surroundings. In spring and summer, the forest comes alive with birdsong, lush greenery, and fresh woodland air.
Inside, the cabin’s great room serves as the heart of the home, bringing together the kitchen, dining area, and living room in one open and welcoming space. Soaring cathedral ceilings, warm wood finishes, and a paddle ceiling fan enhance the rustic elegance of the cabin. Whether you're gathering around the table for dinner or relaxing in the living area, the space feels both comfortable and spacious.
The updated kitchen includes everything needed for preparing meals during your stay, while the dining area provides a perfect place to gather with family and friends.
Large doors open onto the expansive covered deck and screened porch, where sweeping views of the forest and lake create a peaceful backdrop throughout the day. Guests often start their mornings here with coffee while watching wildlife in the woods or end the evening enjoying the quiet beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Outdoor relaxation continues with several standout features. Guests can unwind in the private hot tub overlooking the forest, take a refreshing dip in the seasonal above-ground swimming pool, or spend time beside the half-acre stocked lake, perfect for peaceful catch-and-release fishing.
The cabin comfortably accommodates guests with four bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The primary bedroom is located on the upper level and includes an en suite bathroom along with beautiful forest views that create a peaceful place to wake up each morning. Two additional bedrooms on the main level provide comfortable spaces for guests, while the layout allows everyone to enjoy both privacy and shared gathering areas.
Downstairs, the finished basement family room provides an additional place to relax and unwind. It’s perfect for game nights, movie evenings, or simply spending time together by the fireplace after a day of exploring.
Outside, the property invites guests to enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds the cabin. Walk through the wooded acreage, fish in the lake, or gather around the fire pit under the stars for an evening of conversation and s’mores.
While the cabin feels wonderfully secluded, it’s located just a short drive from downtown Nashville, Indiana, where guests can explore art galleries, antique shops, local restaurants, wineries, and live music venues.
Outdoor enthusiasts will also love the close proximity to Brown County State Park, Indiana’s largest state park with more than 16,000 acres of scenic forests, hiking trails, mountain biking routes, horseback riding, and breathtaking overlooks.
Whether you're planning a relaxing weekend retreat, a family getaway, or time away with friends, 9 Oaks Log Cabin offers a peaceful place to experience the natural beauty and charm of Brown County.
