We enjoyed a girls trip at this beautiful cabin. It was everything we could have hoped for and more. The property itself was so beautiful. Large lake to look at from the house; lots of outdoor seating; plenty of spaces to walk and meander. We never utilized the game barn, but it's there if you want it, as well as lots of kayaks and a hot tub. The cabin itself was very nice. Kitchen was well stocked; nice sun room off of the living area for a more "nature" feel; the bedrooms were great and beds were very comfortable. The host was the quickest at replying to inquiries of any host I've ever experienced in a rental. Very helpful with even the smallest question. I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place to stay in Brown County!
Very clean and cozy! We would love to stay here again and highly recommend it to others. Due to the large amount of snow, the drive near the house could have been cleared off more to allow for better parking with several cars but that has in no way made our review turn negative. Communication was great, we felt safe, and we had a great time!
We loved the beautiful property! Plenty of room to play our annual family baseball and kickball games. Kids made nature dioramas with sticks and moss! Everyone loves being on the peaceful lake!
Great property! Loved the privacy and the views. Gorgeous area! Great communication with the owners, as well. We definitely plan on staying again sometime.
We loved our stay at this cabin on its own little lake. The boats were the highlight for us and well as the beauty of nature all around us. Was a perfect family vacation.

This place was amazing! We had plenty of space, felt nice and secluded, and yet were a short drive to Nashville when we wanted to get out and see the town.

Thanks Margaret for staying and thank you for the kind review! Thats one thing we love about our place as well. Its close to downtown Nashville but far enough away that you also get the full nature experience. Its the best of both worlds! Thanks for staying and for being such great it was our pleasure getting to host you!
This was our 2nd stay here. Our family loves this place! It is simply beautiful. Close to Nashville, but no one ever wants to leave the property. There is so much to do, and so many places to relax. Thank you to our wonderful hosts.

Why they chose this property
Myself and my wife along with other family members stayed here and immediately fell in love with the place. We all travel a lot and have never stayed somewhere where you literally have your own lake and 80 acres to explore. We made so many memories right away like our daughter catching her first fish. Memories like that are priceless! We hope you all enjoy the property as much as we do!
