About this property
5BR 4BA house on shared lake
Perched above a scenic lake and valley just off Highway 46, Lonesome Oak offers a peaceful country retreat surrounded by the natural beauty of southern Indiana. Located in Bartholomew County just minutes from Brown County and Nashville, Indiana, this spacious vacation home combines quiet countryside seclusion with easy access to local attractions, dining, and outdoor adventure. Set along a private drive shared with only one neighboring property, the setting provides the calm and privacy guests seek while remaining conveniently close to Brown County State Park and the amenities of Columbus.
Inside, the home offers multiple levels of comfortable living space designed for families and groups. The main level welcomes guests with a foyer leading to a bright living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the lake and rolling valley below. A large kitchen with generous counter space and a separate dining area makes shared meals easy, while a king bedroom with office desk and nearby full bathroom adds convenience on this level. Upstairs, the primary suite features a king bed and private bathroom, alongside two additional bedrooms—one with a queen bed and another with a twin-over-full bunk—sharing a full bath. The finished lower level provides even more space with a bedroom, full bathroom, and a second living area.
Outdoor spaces make Lonesome Oak especially memorable. A covered porch and patio overlook the peaceful lake, while the private hot tub offers a relaxing place to soak in the views after a day of exploring. Guests can gather around the fire pit, enjoy catch-and-release fishing in the lake, or simply take in the quiet surroundings. Located close to Brown County State Park, Nashville’s shops and galleries, and the architecture and dining of Columbus, this spacious countryside retreat offers the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and adventure for a memorable southern Indiana getaway.
Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas are 3 night minimum Holidays.
