Here Are A Few Kind Words from Our Past Guests:

"Amazing place to stay, super clean, very well stocked, easy to communicate with Kara. We rented all units except the event space as our group did not need it. Everyone had a great time, and we will return next year. It was terrific for the grandkids to be able to walk to nearby shops and get ice cream. The rooftop patio is perfect for group dining, games, and s'mores. Roomier than it looks (and it already looks roomy!), and the beds are super comfortable. Perfect in every way!” –Vicki

“I can’t sing the Barn Burner’s praises enough! This place is perfect! So well thought out. Everything you could need is there! All of the beds are extremely comfy! The design is PERFECT! It’s the perfect place to travel with a large group. We spent lots of time on the rooftop patio eating meals, playing games, and hanging out. We went for a staff retreat, and every person that was there was sad to leave and was asking for the link to stay again and asking if we could come back next year for our retreat!” –Maddie

“Barn Burner was perfect for our family girls’ trip to Little Nashville. We wanted something with plenty of room for our multi-family getaway. This location perfectly fits what we needed with the four separate units and the shared rooftop patio. We spent each night around the fire enjoying the beautiful weather and making memories. It was so nice being right in town and walking to all the shops and restaurants. I would definitely recommend Barn Burner as a wonderful location for any groups or families looking to stay in Nashville!” –Maria

"I liked that each family had a separate space to stay. We loved the outdoor area on the second floor where all of the family gathered. It was so nice at night because the little lights all came on and we lit the gas flame burner. We could easily walk to all the shops in town. It was very quiet in the evenings. It was safe for our little guy who was 18 months old." –Diane

“One extended family of 20 needed a place to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary near Nashville. The Barn Burner was the PERFECT space and location. The rooftop patio with the fire pit was a huge hit. We'll definitely be booking another stay here!” –Lance

In the bathrooms, plush Parachute-brand towels, premium Public Goods amenities, and other essential toiletries are provided for your convenience and comfort.

☆☆ KITCHEN & DINING ☆☆

Each unit has a fully stocked kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances (electric range, microwave, French door refrigerator and freezer, and dishwasher) and butcher block countertops. You'll have everything you could reasonably need to cook your favorite meals--from utensils and dishware to plenty of pots and pans and basic cooking ingredients.

Dine indoors at the four dining tables or gather on the rooftop patio for a delightful meal outside.

Prefer to dine out? Stroll to one of Nashville’s many nearby restaurants for a local treat and bring leftovers back to enjoy later.

☆☆ LIVING AREA ☆☆

Each cozy living area features comfortable seating, cozy blankets, and a collection of card and board games. The flat-screen smart TVs include Roku TV access for your subscription streaming services.

Free high-speed Wi-Fi internet is available throughout the building.

☆☆ ROOFTOP PATIO ☆☆

Enjoy the spacious rooftop patio, the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or s’mores around the gas fire table. With covered seating, ceiling fans, a gas grill, and glowing string lights, this space is ideal for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors.

The rooftop patio is the primary shared space between all the units, making it a great gathering place for larger groups that have rented the entire building. 1-North also has a private ground-floor patio with a grill and dining setup.

☆☆ FAMILY-FRIENDLY ☆☆

Each unit at the Barn Burner has a Pack ‘n Play, highchair, kid-friendly dinnerware, a selection of blocks and games, and a safety gate for the stairs. 

All windows have blackout shades, making it easier for little ones to nap or sleep while the rest of the group enjoys their stay.

☆☆ GUEST ACCESS ☆☆

You’ll have exclusive access to all four lodging rental units at the Brown County Barn Burner, including the rooftop patio and four dedicated on-site parking spaces.

Each unit has its own private entrance, but 1-North and 2-South have an adjoining interior door, making it easy for larger groups to connect.

Check-in is contactless with key-coded door locks. Your unique door code, along with detailed check-in instructions, parking information, and check-out guidelines, will be sent 1-2 days before your arrival.

☆☆ PARKING & GETTING AROUND ☆☆

There are four dedicated parking spots behind the building, accessible via Honeysuckle Lane (a one-way street running south to Washington Street). Additional free street parking and public lots are available nearby.

Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are very limited or unavailable in the area, so plan to drive or walk as you explore Nashville. Most shops and restaurants are within walking distance, but if you're venturing beyond town, having your own vehicle is recommended.

☆☆ LOCATION ☆☆

The Brown County Barn Burner sits in a quiet yet convenient corner of Nashville, Indiana, at the intersection of Jefferson and Washington Streets. You’re just a few easily walkable blocks from the heart of town, where you’ll find locally owned shops, art galleries, restaurants, coffee spots, and more.

Less than ¼ mile away, the Salt Creek Trail provides a scenic, paved path (¾ mile) leading to the Brown County Music Center, Brown County YMCA, IGA grocery store, and additional restaurants and shops in Salt Creek Plaza. 

Prefer to drive? You’ll be less than a 5-minute drive from the Brown County State Park or a slightly further - but still easy - drive to Yellowwood State Forest, Lake Monroe, and the nearby cities of Bloomington and Columbus.

I share lots of planning tips, local favorites, and other recommendations for your visit on my blog, "Tanglewood Hideaway," to help you make the most of your visit!

We live just a few miles outside of town and work in Nashville, so we’re usually nearby if you need anything.

That said, unless you reach out, you likely won’t see us during your stay - unless we happen to cross paths at a local restaurant!
