Come to beautiful southern Indiana and stay in our rustic cabin with all the comforts of home. Overlooks White River, close to Bedford, Bloomington, near Spring Mill Park & Bluespring Caverns. There is hiking nearby at Hoosier NF and Milwaukee Trail. Great home base if you are going to IU football game, French Lick or just want to get away for a relaxing weekend. Lots of golfing near by. Limestone bluff overlooks the White River 125 ft. below cabin porch. There is a patio plus a fire pit.

The space
Authentic hand hewn log cabin built in 1920 with addition in 1960s. Sits on a beautiful wooded lot. There is a patio and a fire pit to enjoy a bonfire, we supply all the firewood needed. Sometimes you can see eagles flying up the river. Squirrels, deer, birds, and wild turkeys abound. Very peaceful place. There are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one small room with a double bed. There is a stocked kitchen with range, microwave, fridge, toaster, blender, coffee maker and coffee provided. If there is something extra you need we will try and accommodate.
