About this property
Nature’s Rest at Cataract Falls
Nature’s Rest is located on the property of the Cataract Falls Lodge. An ideal getaway whether you want peace and tranquility or an adventure in the park. A one-minute walk into the park are two of the most spectacular water fall features in the Midwest. Bring your hiking boots and explore. Within a 45-minute drive of the Lodge are two state parks, McCormick's Creek and Turkey Run.
The property is 30 minutes from DePauw University and 50 minutes from IU and Indiana State University. Other attractions include Cagle's Mill Rosevear AKA Cataract Lake and Cowpokes Arena at the C Bar C, both less than a 15-minute drive from the Lodge.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by William Kessler

Hi! I am Bill your host. I go by Captain Bill here around the lake. I moved here to Indianapolis shortly after participating in the 1987 Pan American Games playing Team Handball. I purchased this property with the sole purpose of making it what it is today. A vacation get-a-way for families and groups wanting to explore the amazing Cataract Falls State Recreation area. Becky, my girlfriend who goes by First Mate Becky, is my partner in this adventure and the both of us welcome you to experience all this area has to offer.
Why they chose this property
If you enjoy the outdoors, nature and adventure but equally enjoy the comforts of a fine hotel suite, this is the place for you. It's not a location intended for long term stays but for a few days it is ideal for either rest and tranquility or Adventure in the park. The connecting Event Veranda is great for weddings, family gatherings, friends get togethers or focus group round ups. Hike the Trails into the park then the next day hit one of the nearby State Parks; McCormacks Creek State Park or Turkey Run. Both less than a 45 minute drive.
What makes this property unique
Nature’s Rest is located at the entrance to the Cataract Falls State Recreation Area. An amazing park with two of the most spectacular waterfall features in the Midwest. Come for tranquility and rest or come for the adventure. If you would like to host an event utilizing the connecting event veranda send a message and let’s discuss.
