The property and hospitality was better than advertised. Every little detail was well planned and thought out. It’s obvious they care about their guests. Location is perfect between Columbus and Nashville with Brown County State park nearby for hiking. Hope to stay here again!

Perfect location for our girls’ trip!
** prior to review - dog owners looking for a place to stay - this IS the place for you! ** It was the first time for us moms to be away from our kids after a long summer, and we’ve been looking forward to it for months. The place you stay can impact the whole vibe of the trip and Marisa’s place did not disappoint. The entire home is beautiful, we were exclaiming about the decor from the moment we walked in. It was immaculate and the kitchen was well-stocked with anything we could need (not food, although there was a pile of snacks and homemade salsa waiting for us!). From the mugs to the blankets.every item felt perfectly curated to the home - Marisa has great taste!! The location is about a 15 minute drive to the main area of little Nashville. For some reason, I thought we were in walking distance. But it was worth the ride to have a lovely, clean, and peaceful place to stay at the end of a long day of walking around. Unanimous agreement that we would come back here! My only regret is that I didn’t bring my dog. The home is set up perfectly for dogs! Empty crates,a great yard, dishes, etc.I will definitely bring my dogs next time!!

We were looking for a nice spacious place to spend a long weekend with our adult children (and spouse/girlfriend) and our baby grandaughter. This home was very nice, it was the perfect size, and everything was pretty much provided for a great weekend getaway. We enjoyed our stay and felt very comfortable there!

Great family getaway!!
Originally from Indiana, my family and i travel back every so often to visit extended family. This time we decided to rent a place instead of staying with family and this was the perfect location! The house was well layed out, clean, spacious, well stocked and so much thought was put into some of the little things that made the say comfortable and relaxing. Make sure to take a trip into Nashville for all the cute local shops and restaurants!!

We really enjoyed this getaway in the woods! Clean and spacious and comfy! We didn't need to buy our own shampoo, TP, etc. which is always nice when staying in a rental home. Nashville, IN was a cute down to visit, and the nearby state park was nice as well. If we are ever in Southern Indiana again, we will try to stay here!

4pawsgetaway was pawfect!
What a beautiful and well-appointed home. Large enough for our family of 5 adults, plus our dog! The expansive kitchen area and gorgeous (and huge!) island was the focal point of our graduation celebration, a time to enjoy each other in a serene setting and get to and from Bloomington very easily. Lights were left on to welcome us, as was a box of baked goods and a dog cookie! Communication was excellent prior to and while arriving, You feel like you’re a million miles away but yet very close to shopping, necessities, restaurants, wineries, etc. I would highly recommend this property and will return for sure for a girls weekend of Brown County shopping and eating!

Eclipses All Others!
To say we were pleased with our stay at this rental during eclipse weekend would not do justice to the effort that Marisa and her team put into making their guests feel welcome and comfortable. It is obvious from the moment you enter the house that you are in the hands of someone who cares about what they do and will go the extra mile to make your visit special. The house is clean, well-appointed, and lives up to its listing description. We brought our two dogs and, even though we are dog lovers, we appreciate a home that doesn’t have an overwhelming look and smell of dogs and this property does not. (Not at all in our opinion). The neighborhood is relatively quiet, and the property is somewhat secluded (mainly at the back of the house). It is very relaxing and peaceful. It is a short drive to the town. The communication from Marisa and Brett was stellar from throughout the entire process. We really couldn’t have written a script for a better rental experience thanks to the care and thoughtfulness of Marisa and Team.

Peaceful, Spacious and Thoughtful
We have stayed in several VRBO rentals over the years and this one tops the list in terms of the managers thoughtfulness. While it doesn’t have huge walk in showers (nor does it claim to), it DOES have plenty of bath towels. It also had PLENTY of toilet paper. It was impeccably appointed as if you were entertaining family. Board games, phone chargers, sound machine by the beds, coffee, even spices in the kitchen. While these may all seem like little things, they can be uncommon when renting a place. We have been in newly built, very impressive and massive homes that don’t even have one bath towel for each of the bathrooms. Not to mention only a partial roll of toilet paper in each of the bathrooms. I feel like the way people do anything is the way they do everything. EVERYTHING here seems like these people care. We look forward to coming back. All this said, they do need to work on the exterior door deadbolt that leads to the hot tub. It has issues. Also the kitchen faucet needs attention, too.

Clean, spacious and great location
My wife and I enjoyed our weekend getaway to the 4Paws property. The location is 15 minutes from shopping, breweries and hiking in the Nashville/Brown County area. We enjoyed the thoughtful decor for the holidays, the hot chocolate station and the spacious/well equipped kitchen for preparing meals. The bedrooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable. The basement was a bonus with the pool table, gaming systems, and access to the back yard hot tub with overhead string lights for a peaceful ambience. The home is very organized and they truly thought of everything to make our stay as enjoyable, convenient and comfortable as possible.
