Perfect location - you can easily walk to all of the shops and restaurants. The public library is right across the street and has a beautiful little children’s garden where deer, rabbit, and chipmunk are plentiful. The dogs loved sitting out in the screened in porch area just watching everything. The only thing to note is the weeds around the house are really plentiful (I guess it helps the bee population) and it kind of feels like you’re being attacked by the weeds when walking in and out of the house.

Lovely cottage close to downtown.

It was very homey, tastefully decorated. It had everything we needed. The large room was very relaxing to hang out in. I would have rated it five stars but the 2nd evening we were there, the A/C struggled. The temp would not drop below 78 degrees until the next morning. We were thankful for the ceiling fan in the bedroom and the fan we found in the closet.

Nashville Peace

We really enjoyed our visit. The cottage was amazing. The sheets smelled wonderful and the house was really clean when we got there. When we had a problem with the lock, we contacted the host and they were able to get us back in the house. I would highly recommend!! Definitely coming back again.

Liked the place. The kitchen and living area was great. The one bathroom was through a bedroom which was inconvenient for us. Mattresses not great. The neighborhood was quiet. Overall we had a great time and enjoyed our stay. Great communication with the host.

Comfortable Quiet and Clean

Access for mobility limited. Dog door was very small. Very close to town for shopping and restaurants. Wish the hot tub had a hand rail for steady access. Lots of stairs and uneven concrete walks make it challenging. Very nice open floor plan and natural light.

Rustic Cottage… perfect fit for Nashville, IN.

It’s not a 5 Star Hotel by any means, but perfect for a Nashville Indiana and Brown County Vibe! Main Living area very comfortable, the 1 bathroom a little small, but clean with great unlimited hot water and clean. Price may seem high to some but I feel it’s priced fairly given all things considered. So the bathroom fan is a little noisy, but it works, LOL. If it were a brand new pristine house, would be 2x price. Again felt perfect for Nashville..

Where to begin

When we arrived the front door was wide open to the outside and it was 10 degrees outside causing the inside to be 50. The hot tub leaks and the back patio and stairs up from parking were covered in ice. The code lock on the door stopping working on our second day. Luckily there was a key box with the same code. Several large windows have no curtains or blinds and neighbors can see right in. Is a nice close to everything location just needs some better upkeep.
