Escape to beautiful southern Indiana at Lemon Ridge Lodge on Lake Lemon

The house is in a beautiful, private area. Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. We learned to love the house throughout our stay. The size was disappointing during the initial walk through, as we were expecting something bigger. The size ended up being just fine and everyone enjoyed their stay. After much thought, here are a few things that we were disappointed in: the description says this is 10 acres. Yes the property is probably on 10 acres, but you're only allowed access to about 1/2 acre. We were under the impression we would be able to walk trails on the property and access to lake lemon would be no problem, come to find out, it is clearly stated to stay within the tree line, its advised not to go through the woods and after hours of driving trying to find a spot to fish on lake lemon it came to our realization that it must be a private lake, as we could not find public access. We will take full responsibility of lack of planning and research, but we cannot ignore that we were a little mislead. A simple getaway from busy lives wasnt as simple as we had hoped. We ended up at brown county/nashville every day to do things like fishing and hiking we hoped we could do closer to our vacation cabin instead of taking a 30 minute drive. Our families were able to adjust without a problem, the area is gorgeous, but for the price we paid, we definitely expected more from the house and property. The kitchen had dishes, but no knives or seasoning. No salt or pepper. I guess I will be packing seasoning and kitchen utensils for now on when we go on vacation? Privacy: the property is private. The home, however, is not. We could hear the couple talking in the bedroom/bathroom below us and vice versa. Overall, we had a great time. We will be going to back to the area, however, we will not be going back to this property.

We had a family reunion to celebrate my son’s safe return from deployment. The cabin was sensational and a wonderful setting. We plan on returning in a year or two. I highly recommend it!!!

This cabin was a wonderful getaway for us - two couples and two little kids. The 3-year old LOVED the playhouse and slide, and we all enjoyed the open living space and great outdoor decks. We spent evenings on the deck and took the short drive to Lake Monroe to rent a pontoon for the afternoon. The air conditioning and foosball table in the basement were big hits with the summer heat. We also appreciated the privacy, while being so conveniently close to Indy, Bloomington and Nashville. We definitely look forward to booking this cabin again!
