About this property

4 Paws Getaway in Brown County

Welcome to 4 Paws Getaway, a secluded cabin-style retreat tucked away on 11 private wooded acres in beautiful Brown County, Indiana, just minutes from Brown County State Park. Designed with families, friends, and four-legged companions in mind, this peaceful getaway offers the perfect balance of comfort, nature, and entertainment.

Surrounded by trees, open skies, and a tranquil pond, the property invites guests to slow down and reconnect with the outdoors. Spring in Brown County brings fresh green forests, birdsong in the mornings, and ideal weather for exploring the trails and enjoying time outside.

Arriving at the home is simple and stress-free with ground-level entry and convenient keypad check-in, making it easy to unload and settle in right away.

Inside, the open-concept main level welcomes you with high ceilings, large windows, and warm modern-rustic design. Natural light fills the space while forest views create a relaxing backdrop throughout the home. The living area features a large wraparound sectional, perfect for movie nights, conversation, or relaxing after a day of hiking or exploring the area.

The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking easy and enjoyable, whether you're preparing a simple breakfast or a full dinner for the group. Guests will find stainless steel appliances, high-end cookware, a marble-top island for prep space, a wine fridge, and both a Keurig and cappuccino machine for morning coffee. The dining area comfortably seats six guests.

Just outside the main living space, step onto the spacious outdoor deck, where you’ll find a BBQ grill, outdoor seating, and peaceful views of the surrounding woods. It's a perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or evening dinners surrounded by nature.

Downstairs, the finished entertainment basement becomes the ultimate hangout space. Guests can enjoy a 65” Smart TV, gaming consoles including Nintendo and Xbox, a pool table, card table, and a variety of board games for all ages. It’s ideal for movie nights, rainy-day activities, or late-night tournaments.

The home comfortably sleeps up to six guests across three private bedrooms. Two guest rooms feature plush queen beds, forest-facing windows, and Smart TVs for quiet evenings. The spacious primary suite offers a king bed, cozy reading nook, walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities and a relaxing soaking tub.

Step outside onto the covered patio, where you’ll find one of the home’s most popular features: a private six-person hot tub complete with spa towels, robes, and a Bluetooth speaker for relaxing evenings under the stars. After a day exploring Brown County, there’s nothing better than soaking in the hot tub while enjoying the quiet of the woods.

Just a short walk away, the fire pit beside the peaceful pond creates the perfect setting for evening gatherings. Roast marshmallows, share stories, or simply enjoy the sounds of frogs and crickets while watching the sunset. The surrounding grassy areas offer space for yard games, picnics, or letting your dogs roam and play.

As the name suggests, 4 Paws Getaway is truly dog-friendly. Your pups will feel right at home with thoughtful amenities including dog beds, food and water bowls, toys, waste bags, and welcome treats. With 11 acres of wooded land, there’s plenty of space for them to explore right alongside you.

Located just 8 minutes from Brown County State Park, guests can easily enjoy hiking trails, scenic drives, mountain biking, fishing, and breathtaking overlooks. The charming village of Nashville, Indiana is also nearby, offering unique shops, art galleries, restaurants, and live music.

Whether you spend your days exploring Brown County or simply relaxing on the property, 4 Paws Getaway offers a peaceful place to reconnect, recharge, and enjoy time together—dogs included.

We loved our stay at 4Paws! Excellent amenities, not too far from Bloomington and a great location if you’re traveling with pets. The home was well equipped with everything you need and the little extras that are so nice! We would definitely stay again and plan to when visiting our daughter that’s attending IU.

Listing completely accurate. Inside of house is actually than the pictures show. Made for a very comfortable Thanksgiving with family. All the touches for dogs were great - our min pin loved the little dog bed, the treats, and the toys. She wouldn't even play with her own toys. She loved having all the indoor space to run around. The special touches added by the host were also great - Christmas decorations, cocoa bar, homemade salsa & snack box and treats. Definitely recommend!!

Epson tour golf tournament.

We stayed at two different properties as the original home had AC issues prior to our arrival. The property manger was very helpful in working out new arrangements. Both properties were very nice and had everything needed for a comfortable stay.

Family Getaway

We were looking for a nice spacious place to spend a long weekend with our adult children (and spouse/girlfriend) and our baby grandaughter. This home was very nice, it was the perfect size, and everything was pretty much provided for a great weekend getaway. We enjoyed our stay and felt very comfortable there!
