Property Description

Charley’s Cabin is the perfect choice if you're looking for a scenic cabin in the woods!

Property Details

Come see this charming two-bedroom cabin, with one-and-a-half bathrooms, that has a rich history in Brown County!

Charley's Cabin is the perfect retreat for those seeking relaxation by the fire pit or in the hot tub under the stars. You'll create unforgettable memories here that will add to the cabin's legacy. Only a short drive away are the Brown County State Park and the delightful shops and restaurants of Nashville.

Charley's Cabin was built on the site of Alfred Oaldon's old blacksmith shop by Charlie Fox between 1987 and 1990. To replicate his childhood home in Brown County, Charlie used logs he cut himself on an old sawmill he owned as a young man. During WWII, he served in the United States Navy in Guam as a Seabee, where he honed his valuable building skills in constructing airstrips. You'll find more information about the cabin's fascinating history throughout the space.

New Review by Karen and Lisa 09/10/2023
Charley's Cabin is so much bigger than what the pictures show on the Moondance website! We were amazed at the size! It's a gorgeous cabin and there are so many extra amenities than what most cabins offer. When we first walked in, we were greeted with such a lovely scent. Everything was IMMACULATE! We had the best time during our stay and we are already planning our next trip where we hope to book Charley's Cabin again. The service you provide made everything about our trip so wonderful! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

We have stayed in a lot of cabins over the years, and it is safe to say that this has been the best one yet!

It is a pet friendly cabin, yet you would never even know!! We couldn't believe how nice this cabin was! It was private, yet only 10 minutes from town. Eric was extremely friendly and quick to respond! We are actually staying at another one of his cabins this weekend and look forward to it! I've been recommending this place to frienda and family!

Thank you for helping to make our anniversary trip great!!

A hidden slice of heaven!

This cabin was absolutely beautiful. It is so peaceful at night. We took advantage of the front porch and the back porch. The scenery is so gorgeous. My boyfriend and I took this little weekend getaway on the suggestion of my daughter who has been to Nashville, Indiana before. It was better than I expected. We even brought our rescue dog Charlie along. He loved all the smells and loved hiking the little trail behind the cabin. We took advantage of the hot tub as well.

We spend the entire day on Saturday in the Brown State Park and then shopping downtown Nashville. Everyone was so friendly and pleasant to talk to. If you are looking for a getaway, I would highly recommend the place. The cabin was spotless and had everything you would need for a weekend away. Thank you for sharing this special cabin with others.

It was the best experience! Eric was the best host, he responded to the messages immediately.
For days of relaxation it is the best place, waking up to the sound of nature was incredible. The house inside and outside is very clean, it basically has all the essentials for the stay there. The only thing I would recommend is to buy everything you need before going, the nearest store is 25 minutes

Enjoyed staying at the cabin. It was very clean and quiet. Easy to find, but still in a very wooded area. Everything was easy to use. The hot tub didn’t seem to want to turn off but I think we got it after a few tries. Beautiful space to sit and enjoy being outside.

Really swank cabin with cool antiques and nice touches. Serene but not too far from shopping and restaurants.
Cute, comfortable cabin by Nancy 07/15/2023
My friend and I stayed at the cabin for a writing retreat. It was a perfect spot. The cabin was cozy, the kitchen was well equipped, and the internet was fast and reliable. The location was quiet and secluded (however, it was pretty close to the street, and many drivers went quite fast, so if you bring kids or pets, you need to keep an eye open). The hot tub was relaxing, and they had a great fire pit and grill in the front yard. The back porch overlooked the woods, which made it particularly nice. Plus, the property manager was incredibly responsive whenever we had a question (e.g., we had a question about the water level of the hot tub on our third evening; it was well after business hours, and they responded within minutes!). We certainly would stay here again if we had the opportunity.

Charley’s Cabin was all it was described as and more. Beautiful & peaceful location. And while it was near the road, the traffic wasn’t bad at all. The cabin was spotless, beautifully presented, and well equipped, . I would definitely recommend staying here.

We hope to return in the future! by Cathy 07/01/2023
What a beautiful getaway spot to celebrate 35 years of marriage. We enjoyed everything about our stay at Charley’s Cabin and can’t speak highly enough about it. We especially loved relaxing in the hot tub and sitting by the fire after a day of hiking in the state park and shopping in Nashville. We hope to return in the future and will definitely use Moondance Vacation Homes when planning our trip.

5+ stars for Charley’s Cabin
This was the nicest rental for Airbnb/ VBrO we have ever done in multiple states and Puerto Rico.
The rooms were clean, house smelled great, beds were comfortable, and the added extra amenities of games, kitchen items, bathrooms, and hot tub.
We had zero issues

Charley's Cabin was a wonderful stay! Very clean and just as described and seen in pictures. About 10 minutes from shops and restaurants in Nashville. The location was a good mix of being private and set away from the hustle and bustle, but also close enough to town. The hot tub was a great addition, as well as all the fun games, both inside and outside. Many interesting and historical touches in the cabin as well. We very much enjoyed our stay!

A+ in our book by Megan 03/13/2023
The location is great and there is plenty to keep you entertained in the cabin and out whether the weather is crappy or perfect. The fact that it’s dog friendly is what made it absolutely perfect to me.

Airbnb Review #837686748097327013 #190238 by Review from Airbnb Guest #190238 03/01/2023
We absolutely enjoyed the cabin though we were a little put off by the location. The pictures on the wedsite were a little deceiving. We were under the impression that the Cabin was secluded, in the woods, off of the road away from others, this was not the case. Though it was beautiful we a little put off that the fire pit was in the front yard, traffic going by constantly even police sirens at one point. It was not as secluded and private as we had hoped. The only other thing was that a coffee pot would have been greatly appreciated!! No one wants to fight for that first cup off coffee in the morning so the one cup kurig was not cutting it lol.
Overall we enjoyed the Cabin and will not hesitate to visit again but now we know what to expect

We had such a great & relaxing stay at Charley’s Cabin. The house was cozy. The weather was perfect for us to sit outside on the porch & also enjoy the hot tub. We can definitely envision us coming back and staying at Charley’s cabin again!
First Vacation by Thomas 02/12/2023
This was our first vacation as a couple and we thoroughly enjoyed the cabin. So much we have decided to book this same cabin over Labor Day weekend and any other future trips to Brown County. The cabin was very welcoming.
So nice! by Bosly 02/06/2023
I stayed at Charlie's Cabin when I went down to see Weird Al Yankovic at the Brown County Music Center. It was so nice, clean, and well kept. They even left a complimentary bottle of wine from the Brown County Winery!
Simply Fantastic by Brian and Debbie 02/04/2023
This cabin and stay was simply fantastic. Beautiful atmosphere and grounds. Thoroughly enjoyed the firepit, games, and the relaxing nature of this beautiful place. Also, the hot tub. The best part is that we became engaged last night at the firepit! We most definitely look forward to a return stay at this wonderful place!

The cabin was great! Great location in a quiet area. The scenery was good but would be much prettier in the fall and/or summer. The only small complaint I had is that the bed was a little stiff, but some people prefer that. Definitely recommend this place!

Relaxing Vacation by Candy 10/09/2022
This was a great little cabin for our short get-away. The cabin was very comfortable and clean. The kitchen was stocked well with cooking and dining essentials. I enjoyed reading about the history of the property and surrounding area. The cabin is in a great location too. It’s in a somewhat secluded area, but still close to many areas of interest. We had a very relaxing, enjoyable time staying at Charley’s Cabin.

We loved Charley's Cabin. We enjoyed the most the woods, the fire pit, the deck, the hot tub, hook & loop game, and the kitchen. Two bathrooms is a bonus. The style was comfy & cozy and felt great to drive up & walk into. The air was invigorating and relaxing and the location was great for a real getaway, while being close enough to nearby attractions. We will definitely book again!

Charlie’s cabin is a great place to relax. It’s a good place if you have kids with its own trail and games and large fire pit area. The living space is comfortable and the outside space is very nice. Also right around the corner from the cabin is a great place to eat called the Farmhouse Café and tea room. We highly recommend.
