About this property

Private & Secluded in Hoosier National Forest

Hoosier National Hideaway is nestled in a secluded setting surrounded by the thousands of acres of Hoosier National Forest. This property offers a multitude of outdoor experiences as well as the opportunity to unplug and enjoy solitude and relaxation, all while totally immersed in nature! Relax in the hot tub while overlooking the forest or warm up next to the firepit.

Hoosier National Hideaway will be a memorable retreat for couples, friends or hunters looking for a woodland getaway. Outdoor activities abound right out the back door or within only a few minutes drive! Blaze your own trail through Hoosier National Forest or ride the many miles of asphalt and gravel within the forest. Take a hike or mountain bike through the miles of trails located in the Brown County State Park with some of the best mountain biking trails in the state. Charles Deam Wilderness also offers many hiking trails and sites. Jackson County is one of southern Indiana's most scenic counties. with views of farmland, meadows and rolling hills with beautiful wooded backdrops. Visit Chateau de Pique Winery, Medora Covered Bridge, Starve Hollow, and other picturesque locations along the way!

Sundance Lake is a short 4 minute drive from the cabin and offers the most magnificent view of the 5-acre lake surrounded by hardwood and pine trees. It is one of the most scenic spots in the forest! Specifically built for fishing, it is stocked with bluegill, red ear, bass, and channel catfish. Kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats are permitted on the lake. There are 2 large piers/decks overlooking the lake where one can just enjoy the view. Whether fishing, hiking, or simply relaxing on the pier with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, Sundance Lake offers something for everyone!

Hoosier National Forest has an abundance of turkey, white-tail deer, squirrels, and seasonal mushrooms. This property is completely engulfed by the forest, creating a hunter’s paradise! Travel the woods all day and then return to the comfort of this convenient cabin to relax!

You won’t have to worry about getting “cabin fever”! Despite its remote location, the cabin is only minutes from some of Brown County’s best hot spots. Only 10 minutes away is the lovely and scenic Salt Creek Winery, overlooking miles of rolling hills! How about dinner out? The historic Story Inn is a mere 15 minute drive and offers dining, a bar, and live music.

Planning to visit the shops in Nashville? The drive there is one of the most serene and scenic drives in southern Brown County!

The most dreaded phrase while on vacation: “Oh no, I forgot something!” Well, don’t be too discouraged! Just 10 minutes away, in a little place called Freetown, is a Dollar General Store! Well stocked (including a great produce section), this little store will have whatever you need!

This property offers 1 queen size bed and 1 pull out sofa. A Roku Smart TV will allow you to stream your most favorite shows!
