We would like to point out this region of Indiana has hills. Even the Patoka Lake boat launches are mostly on hills. The State of Indiana Police patrols the State and County Roads and enforces the speed limit. NO BOATS. The Shaded Log Cabin is on a private road which does not have any cross traffic. It is a very rural quiet setting. Most all the Log Cabins‘s on the private road are second homes. We hope you make our Log Cabin your Log Cabin on a regular basis.
