Really enjoyed the Artist Cottage in Nashville! Walkable to all the restaurants and shops in downtown Nashville. Staying in a house with so much history was also a cool experience.

Airbnb Review #1378314293650185429 #291781 by Review from Airbnb Guest #291781 03/16/2025
This was a beautiful place to stay! Super charming aesthetic and loved reading about the history of the place. It was very peaceful especially getting to relax in the hot tub while it was raining and hearing the rain hit the tin roof. Even though there were bad storms during our stay that knocked out the power of the town for 12+ hours, getting to see the community come together was heart warming. Love seeing a close knit small town community. Everyone in town was welcoming and friendly. This place is full of good shops and even better food.

Eric's place was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. We have stayed in Nashville previously but stayed farther out. It was great staying so close to town and very easy to walk to everything and so convenient! The place was bigger than we expected and wished we could have stayed longer. Very homey, so glad we picked this place! We also had a last minute change and needed to bring our dog, Eric responded very quickly and was very accommodating! Such a great weekend!

Airbnb Review #922492341201627334 #204306 by Review from Airbnb Guest #204306 06/27/2023
This house is a wonderful example of a period cottage that has been updated for modern living without erasing its history. The living/dining room is spacious, with a wall of windows providing a lot of natural light, antique wood floors, and a statement fireplace. The kitchen is bright and had plenty of dishes and cookware. When we had a slight hiccup with the gas grill, Eric was very responsive. The location is fantastic; just a 5 minute walk to the Main Street of shops, galleries, and restaurants, but very quiet. Know that if you choose to walk, the house is on a hill. If you’re a reader, check out the beautiful public library next door. It has a book nook of used books for sale by donation. Perfect way to support the town. I bought 2!

My dog and I made the trip to Nashville to spend a few days hiking at Brown County State Park. We enjoyed the cottage and all of its history. Eric was very responsive to any questions we had. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed to make our stay relaxing. We look forward to coming back in the fall. Blessings - Angela
Airbnb Review #896372556547928516 #198983 by Review from Airbnb Guest #198983 05/21/2023
Great location. This is the first time we’ve stayed walking distance to the little town. It was great to be able to walk everywhere. We even walked to Hard Truth Distillery. The hot tub was great since we were there to do a trail race.

The only heads-up I’d give is that the only bathroom is attached to one of the bedrooms. So, if two couples were sharing the place, one couple would have to walk through the other bedroom to use the bathroom. It was just my husband and I, so not an issue for us.

Have rented 3 times! by Jennifer 05/01/2023
We have rented the Locust Lane property 3 times because it is such a great place. The location is excellent (3 minute walk to restaurants and shops), there is a fenced-in area for our dogs, and the home is comfortable and spacious. Eric at MoonDance is so responsive, too; we have never had trouble getting hold of him for any reason. We will be back a 4th time!
Airbnb Review #881180120078401719 #197149 by Review from Airbnb Guest #197149 04/30/2023
This was our third time staying here for our annual Brown County hiking trip, and are already planning for next year. Eric is extremely responsive, and the place is a great location. It’s also wonderful to have a place that allows dogs, and they love their own fenced-in yard!
Our second stay! by Brandy 03/28/2023
We stayed at the Artist Lane Cottage, for the second time. It's a quiet little area, within walking distance to the town. The hot tub was an awesome addition since the last time we stayed here. We enjoyed our stay, Our child really enjoys staying at the cottage. We went this year because that's where he requested to go.

This historic home is in a great location. We walked to restaurants and all around the neighborhood. The hot tub was a fun perk for the family, and the fireplace kept things cozy. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils, pots and pans, making it easy to cook meals. We enjoyed our stay!!

Airbnb Review #821783710297977575 #187859 by Review from Airbnb Guest #187859 02/07/2023
Great location. Walkable to downtown, yet far enough away from the hustle & bustle of town. Cottage was well stocked and clean. Be aware, you have to walk through the second bedroom to get to the bathroom as there is only one in the cottage. Hot tub was a plus! Very clean.

Such a clean and cute little place. Lots of extra amenities.
Did not care for having to go through the second bedroom to get to the only bathroom, only has ROKU, nor did I care for the house being surrounded by main roadways to get in and out of that area.
Liked riding the bikes and the hot tub was just what I needed to relax!

Airbnb Review #708651748803651806 #169262 by Review from Airbnb Guest #169262 09/08/2022
We loved our stay at the Artist's Lane Cottage. In town for a wedding, the cottage provided both easy access to the different venues and the perfect place to slip away with our two-year-old for peace and quiet. The cottage was clean; all the amenities worked well; and the decor (which can easily be overdone with kitsch) was cozy and welcoming. Nashville itself is full of fun shops, but we especially enjoyed the proximity to Brown County State Park and its many hiking, biking, and outdoor offerings.
Excellent location- in a eclectic cottage by Anthony 09/01/2022
The property is very cute and situated right in downtown Nashville. The interior had a lot of vintage charm and the small fenced outdoor area was great for the dog (but he really like the beautiful grounds around the library right next door).

Great location to walk around in Nashville. If your into old house and the history of it. Then this is a good place to go. If your into cooking I highly recommend Nashville Spice Company. I’ve been buying my spices from there for 4 years and never been disappointed, a lot of options to pick from. Big Woods Pizza has great food, Hard Truth distillery is also a great place! Good food and there liquor is amazing along with the Quaff-On beer. Peanut butter and jelly beer is amazing!!

Airbnb Review #629624138402504307 #153276 by Review from Airbnb Guest #153276 05/24/2022
My mother and I enjoyed our time away in Nashville, staying at Artist Lane Cottage. Our hosts were quickly responsive to my pre-arrival questions/concerns/requests. It was also easy to call if a road-bump came up and receive help promptly while we were there. (Like me somehow not remembering to hit the unlock sign on the door pad & wondering why the door pad that worked for me earlier was no longer allowing me entrance!)

Part of the reason I chose Artist Lane Cottage was because of the overall ‘calm’ feeling I got from the pics. It’s not over decorated with ‘stuff’ everywhere.

There were plenty of shops and boutiques within easy walking distance! Returning home to a calm quiet cottage in the evening was perfect.

It’s just the right size for a couple or two singles. A couple and a single could make it work if the couple feels good about a full sized bed and the single feels good about the only (small but cute) bathroom being located in their room!

What a beautiful place! The home's layout, hot tub, plentiful towels and blankets, and comfortable beds made our stay enjoyable. We had difficulty checking in due to the way the information in their text was messaged. This was our first time ever experiencing that—yet, once we were finally able to reach the management company, the issue was quickly resolved.

We had a great stay, only 2 nights, but that was all the time we had. We enjoyed Nashville's shopping and restaurants, but our focus was a quiet getaway, and this cottage was perfect. Loved the book that was "about us". It was cool to see the pictures and read the story of this cottage and what was done to make it what it has become. The evenings were awesome, time in the hot tub, a movie with the fireplace adding the perfect touch. The place was very clean and well stocked, not a single issue. The windows allowed a nice breeze while sleeping and one of the nights there was a brief shower that woke me with the sound of rain on the tin roof. It was so relaxing.
Thank you for sharing your place, we loved it.

Artist’s Lane Cottage was a perfect get away. Walking distance to restaurants, shopping and breweries/wineries. The feel of the cottage was peaceful. Great place to unplug and relax. Would stay there again.
Airbnb Review #589821236199634386 #147221 by Review from Airbnb Guest #147221 04/06/2022
My mom and I stayed in the cottage and we were delighted with the original hardware in the home. It just reminded us of the house my mom grew up in.
We walked into town several times. The only place we needed to drive was when we went to the state park.

Airbnb Review #580471039637503838 #144358 by Review from Airbnb Guest #144358 03/11/2022
Such a cute cottage! The location is perfect for exploring shops and restaurants and a short drive to the state park. It had everything we needed and many amenities! We’ll be back!
Airbnb Review #571666989438667562 #143345 by Review from Airbnb Guest #143345 02/28/2022
We really liked the vintage vibe and coziness of the cottage a lot. The location was weird in the middle of the street but it’s a good weird. It’s not a busy street, but you do feel close to the neighbors and passers by on all sides. The living room is so nice with the high ceiling and big window. We loved hanging out there after our days out.

Airbnb Review #541286916618561996 #138891 by Review from Airbnb Guest #138891 01/17/2022
This rental is quaint and clean and right in town. The only downfall is the only bathroom is located in the smaller of the two bedrooms. Other than that it was perfect for us. Even has a small screened-in porch where you can sit to enjoy a little nature no matter what the weather is like.

Airbnb Review #473793602258367282 #129298 by Review from Airbnb Guest #129298 10/15/2021
The rental is very clean. We loved being able to walk to town every day. Loved the screen porch for relaxing in the evening. We had a small issue with the front door and someone was there to assist within 1/2 hour. When the gal that came out determined she couldn’t correct the problem, a repairman was there immediately. All the people who assisted were very nice.

50th wedding anniversary by Geri 08/24/2021
We spent a few days at Artist Lane Cabin celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. The cabin was spacious, comfy, clean, and well-stocked, and was located within walking distance of downtown Nashville. We made good use of the gas grill on the patio, and appreciated that there was an extra propane tank available as well. A great place to relax and decompress!
Airbnb Review #428244129760532360 #120886 by Review from Airbnb Guest #120886 08/13/2021
Place was great and perfect for an overdue visit with a college friend. Town was conveniently located without being close enough to get foot traffic. Would stay again!

It’s was great !
Cutest place! by Aaron 05/26/2021
The cottage was perfectly comfortable and we loved the kitchen and bedrooms. The place has everything anyone would need for to either stay at the cottage the whole trip and it’s also super convenient for going into town. All in all we loved our stay and appreciated how easy it was to contact the property managers. Thanks so much for a great trip!
Airbnb Review #761658736 #108694 by Review from Airbnb Guest #108694 05/23/2021
It was a very peaceful weekend. It was very close to town yet far enough away you didn't hear the loudness of the night. I would strongly suggest for people to stay here for relaxing weekend in Brown County.
Great little place. Nice size rooms and nice original art throughout. by Kathy 05/09/2021
We would return and stay again. Charming!
Great location by Betsy 05/06/2021
Perfect location near town! It's at the top of a hill, so we got lots of exercise when we went shopping.
Charming property by Susan 05/03/2021
Charming historic property. Walkable to all the shops and restaurants in Nashville, IN yet very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The house was well stocked and clean. Great if traveling with a small dog.
Airbnb Review #749836674 #104109 by Review from Airbnb Guest #104109 04/18/2021
Eric’s home is super clean, so spacious, and quiet. It is wonderful being able to walk into town, and our dog loved the fenced-in yard. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen is well -stocked. We will be back, because it’s the best place we have rented in Nashville!
Airbnb Review #746789397 #103246 by Review from Airbnb Guest #103246 04/08/2021
The place puts you right into the heart of Little Nashville. It has a wonderful style and feel to the place! Would definitely go back again!
Lovely cottage in the middle of Nashville, IN by Victor 04/04/2021
My wife and I, together with our dog, enjoyed immensely this little quaint cottage in the middle of Nashville for Easter. The location was perfect, in a quiet neighborhood yet just steps from all the action in downtown Nashville. Eric and Amber were so helpful and easy to work with! We will definitely be back.

Enjoyed our getaway at this charming cottage, located a short walk from the shops and restaurants in Nashville. We appreciated the opportunity to have our dog with us--the small fenced yard was really convenient. We also liked having some outdoor space to hang out in--just wished the weather had been a bit better and we would have used it more! The cottage is spacious and furnished with lovely antiques and comfy couches. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. As noted by others, the only drawback to using both bedrooms is that the bathroom is located inside the smaller bedroom. This would be a fine place for a couple or small family.

Lovely quiet cottage close to the heart of town. You’ll love everything about it. We did!
New Review by Kiley 11/23/2019
My wife and I enjoyed staying here. It was very cozy and we loved how the place let in a lot of natural light during the day. You won’t regret staying here!
New Review by Polly 11/15/2019
Artist Lane was very clean, charming, quiet and was in a fantastic location at the top of the hill overlooking the town and in walking distance to everything. We had a great moms get-away being able to just leave our car and walk into town for dinner. It was also nice to have a DVD player to watch movies in the evening, and we had everything in the kitchen we needed. The fireplace is just decorative, but the entire cottage was super cute and had lots of character. The only bathroom is very nicely finished with a standup shower but is through one of the two bedrooms, so just be aware in case that matters to whoever is staying in that bedroom. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, and we would stay there again. We had a great stay!

Very clean, well-appointed and cozy historic cottage. by Maureen 09/22/2019
Very clean, well-appointed and cozy historic cottage. Close to downtown Nashville and shops, but still a quiet location.
We had a wonderful time! by Cheryl 09/20/2019
You can expect everything to be easy and stress-free, from check-in to check out. The cottage is full of history! Make sure to check out the table books. This place is so clean and has everything you need. It’s so quiet and tranquil. Downtown is within walking distance. Can’t wait to come back. 5 stars from me!!
This is a beautiful property in a great location. by Marika 09/02/2019
This is a beautiful property in a great location. Moondance was responsive and the house was spotless upon our arrival. All of the interesting shops and restaurants of Nashville are within a short walk away and yet within a 15 min drive, you can access hiking and biking trails that will transport you into a remote wilderness environment. We loved it, our two dogs gave it 8 paws up and we're all looking forward to being back!
Loved the cute home. by Debbie 08/11/2019
Loved the cute home. Close to downtown but private and no traffic.
We loved being within walking distance of all Nashville has to offer! by Lesli 07/31/2019
We loved being within walking distance of all Nashville has to offer! It was awesome staying in a historical spot with all the comforts of home. We will be back!
Loved the big room high ceiling & windows! by The Anderson's 07/19/2019
Loved the big room high ceiling & windows! Enjoyed reading the coffee table books about Indiana & Nashville. Thank you!
We loved all the natural light in the home - the huge windows are stunning. by Heather, Annie, Dannielle,& Emma 06/30/2019
We loved all the natural light in the home - the huge windows are stunning. It was great to get to know the history of the home and see pictures of its renovation.
This is a charming cottage within walking distance of the shopping district. by Lee 06/27/2019
Beds are comfortable, and the whole space is well-kept and a delight. We especially enjoyed the screened-in patio, and we would stay here again without hesitation. One thing to know: There is only one bathroom, and it is in the second bedroom. This was not a problem for us. It was just my husband and me who stayed, so we didn't have to worry about disturbing a guest if we needed to use the bathroom during the night. The front window is huge, and it is so much fun to sit in front of it. We saw deer. The hosts have special touches such as a book that talks about the history of the house and information about what to do in the area. The kitchen was spotless and in perfect working order. There is a very convenient counter between the stove and fridge which is a perfect place to put whatever stuff you bring from home -- although since the kitchen is well-stocked, you won't need much!The house rules are clear and simple, which we really appreciated. Some hosts leave a "what to do" that's about as long as reading WAR AND PEACE! Not here. Just Leave the cottage as you found it, take out garbage, wash and put away any dishes (there is a dishwasher), and leave your used bedding on the floor. EASY! The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing. Even though you are close to shopping, it doesn't feel like it. This really is the perfect place to stay if you visit Nashville, Indiana. Enjoy!
Thank you for giving us a cozy, comfortable cabin to stay in for our trip! by The Yelton's 06/25/2019
Thank you for giving us a cozy, comfortable cabin to stay in for our trip! It embodies everything wonderful about the original Nashville! The artistry & history is so charming.
P.S. The big window is the perfect place to watch a storm roll through!
Very clean, quiet cottage. by Thomas 06/14/2019
It is an older home so some things are a little primitive but everything is very nice. We liked the little fence around the home, we didn't have to worry about our dog slipping out on the road! Very convenient to town, just a short walk. Parking is terrible downtown, so being able to walk is a big plus. There are books about the cottage and the artist of Nashville, very interesting.
This was one of my favorite places to stay. by Kathy 05/27/2019
This was one of my favorite places to stay. The place was nicely decorated, has a great restoration history, is very clean, is central to everything we wanted to do, and the amenities were great. The best is that they allow you to bring your dog, have a fenced in yard, and has great places to walk with your dog. I would highly recommend and look forward to going again!
The cottage was adorable! by Michelle 05/19/2019
The cottage was adorable! Very clean and everything you could need was there! The short walk into town was wonderful!
This was a great property in a wonderful location! by Jen 09/25/2018
This was a great property in a wonderful location! The home is up a hill a couple blocks back from all of Nashville’s shopping and dining. It was nice to walk to everything. Check-in was very easy and the home was extremely clean. We were very happy with choosing this for our vacation!
This cottage is cozy, comfy and charming! by Cathy 09/10/2018
This cottage is cozy, comfy and charming! The cottage has been updated but still has retained it's original charm. The location is wonderful! Walking distance to downtown Nashville yet still very quiet and peaceful. Also exceptionally clean and Eric even left snacks and treats for us. The side screened in porch was a special treat to relax and enjoy morning coffee. I would definitely stay at this cottage again!
We would definitely stay here again! by Tara Copp 08/28/2018
We have used Moondance a few times and they have been great. A year ago we stayed in a cabin and there were some issues but we were upgraded to another cabin quickly. This year we stayed at Artist Lane and it was a cute little home with some history to it. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. If you stay here, the house is on a dead end road but it’s in the center of the road so we missed it after driving by several times. We would definitely stay here again.
Quaint 1920's remodeled cottage with all the needed amenities! by Donald 07/26/2018
Quaint 1920's remodeled cottage with all the needed amenities. A block and a half from downtown. Quiet area. Great if traveling with pet. Eric very responsive to questions. Had enjoyable extended weekend visit!
Home was spacious and host was thoughtful and accommodating! by Vrana 07/23/2018
Home was quaint and in a really quiet and cute part of town. Home was spacious and host was thoughtful and accommodating! Everything was a breeze.
The location of this cottage can't be beat! by Hallie 07/23/2018
The location of this cottage can't be beat! Walking distance to everything and very easily accessible. The decor is updated but has its original cottage charm. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone going to Nashville.
