Property Details
The Wayside Cottage is a charming Cape Cod-style vacation home on five acres. Relaxing is easier than ever with an expansive backyard, a large covered porch, a wraparound deck, a hot tub, and a fire pit.
On one level, you'll find the living room, kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms (both with queen-size beds), and one full bathroom. In addition, two twin beds, plenty of play space (toys and games included!), and a gate at the top of the stairs make the loft an excellent place for kids.
It takes just 10 minutes to get to the Wayside Cottage from Nashville. It's easy to get here, there, and everywhere. Less than five minutes away are Bill Monroe Music Park and Brown County Dragway; the entertainment options are endless. Want to enjoy a day on the lake? Lake Lemon is less than 10 miles away, so bring your boat over; there is plenty of room to park it at the cottage in the circular drive.
While The Wayside Cottage may not have internet, the cell coverage is excellent!

The cottage has a very good location, we were close to everything but also a very private location. Very relaxing, everything was super clean. From entertainment to comfort it was all there! 100% booking again when doing another get away.

Eric’s place was just as described and advertised. It was a great home away from home. We weren’t able to take full advantage of the place due to storms but look forward to coming back for the full experience. Eric was very helpful and quick to respond to any and all questions.

We had such a great time staying at this cozy cottage! It was so peaceful, and the neighbor's ducks were a huge hit! The short drive to downtown Nashville was so convenient, and whenever we had a question, the host quickly got back to us!
Will stay again

Beautiful property, peaceful, quiet and secluded (besides one neighbor). We never heard any noise other than the occasional farm animal, which kept us completely entertained...because we spent 90% of our on the amazing deck. We will definitely recommend the Wayside Cottage! Thank you!

Anniversary weekend
by Kathy

We had a wonderful relaxing stay here. We usually travel to Florida for our anniversary but wanted to stay closer to home. Our biggest need was to be out of the city or town but close enough to get to it easily. And mostly wanted to be out in the country. We got everything we wanted. Thank you for making it a great weekend for us.

VERY cute and cozy as well as clean. Had all the desired amenities in the kitchen and bath. 5-ish minute drive to Nashville which is where we spent much of our time. Hot tub was clean and worked great. Looks like a brand new deck so it would be awesome for a warmer weather visit too. Plenty of parking. Very clear and timely communication from management company.

We booked for the weekend and literally only slept there (spent all our time on campus). It’s a charming cottage just outside of Nashville, IN which is the most adorable artist colony / cute town. The cottage was decorated well and clean

Beautiful old cottage with amazing views of farmland, ponds and woods. My wife and I had a great time at this spot. We spent most of our time in the hot tub. Owners were easy to communicate with. We would stay again.

by Buster

Quaint little place. We enjoyed the hot tub and claw foot bathtub/shower combo. The living room furniture was comfy and inviting. The loft is a great space for the kiddos if you bring them along. The kitchen is well stocked. The coffee pot is extremely slow, though I'm used to using single serving coffee makers, so that may be why it seemed slow to me. There is not internet, but we did have decent mobile coverage with AT&T. We are football fans and we're saddened that ESPN was not available on Dish Network at the cabin, however there are plenty of channels to watch if you get rained or snowed in. Something we found humerus was that we passed "Paradise" every time we left or came back to the cabin. If you stay here, you'll see what we mean! Overall, I highly recommend this cabin if you don't require internet or multiple bathrooms.

Weekend Stay

Decided to stay near Nashville, IN for a weekend. This location was great, just off the main road but far enough away that we got the secluded feeling that we were looking for. I would stay again and recommend this place to friends.

Place was very cute, charming and spacious. We immediately loved the outside area and options for seating spots on the beautiful deck. Lots of space to hangout. It was thoughtful to find firewood for us ready to go. Inside it was very charming, perfect for brown county get away. Another thank you for ice in the freezer! Plenty of kitchen tools.

We enjoyed our girls trip and the quietness of being in the country and only 15 minutes from Nashville. The hot tub was fantastic and there was plenty of gathering spaces. The 1 and only drawback for us was the 1 bathroom. With 5 ladies we had to manage our time in the bathroom. But otherwise it was perfect. The fire pit was inviting but we couldn’t use it due to the wind.

The cabin was perfect for our girlfriend's weekend! It was cozy and at the same time plenty of room to spread out and relax. The porch has lots of seating and was just as cozy and inviting as the inside. We loved the location, rural but not so secluded as to make the trips to town difficult.
We thoroughly loved the Wayside Cottage and the peace and quiet that came with the beautiful home.

We enjoyed reading about the history of the cottage. We like it had a fenced in yard to have the dog run in. The patio lights were a nice touch as well as the bikes.
The back deck was great with very scenic views of the neighboring pond!

The Wayside Cottage was a great place to stay for a quick weekend visit to Nashville, In. It was about a 10 minute drive to town. The Cottage was very nicely decorated and had all necessities available. The back deck was great with very scenic views of the neighboring pond. This was our first visit to Brown County and we will be back!!
We loved this place and will be coming back some time soon!

Eric's place is just what my wife and I were looking for to get away from the city and enjoy Nashville IN. It is a beautiful house located on a remote, quiet country road, but is just an easy ten minute drive into downtown Nashville. The hosts are extra helpful and provide plenty of info on what to do and where to go, and also nice touches like Christmas decorations and a snack basket! We were also happy with the cleanliness of the home and the amenities were on point with the listing (including a very clean hot tub!). And we have already planned a return trip with the kids, because the upstairs is perfect for two young ones. Can't wait to return!
We loved our weekend stay at Wayside Cottage!

We loved our weekend stay at Wayside Cottage! It was decorated very nicely with wonderful little touches. It was very clean, spacious, comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed. My daughter loved the kids loft - very cute and fun! We loved the hot tub and the fire pit and the wonderful porch swing! Plenty of wonderful hiking around and a number of fun restaurants a short drive away. We really enjoyed our stay and our hosts provided lots of great info about surrounding activities as well as easy instructions to get in and how to operate everything in the cottage. We will defiantly come back and stay again!

We loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. We wanted to be near the hiking of Brown County, but not in the woods so we could keep the bugs off our kids. This was a perfect spot with the backdrop of woods which gave a very private feel, but was in the open as well. The house itself is very kid friendly and well decorated. It was very well maintained.
