Foghat Get away

The location is in the middle of shopping and dining options. I think the feeling that you are in your own cabin in the middle of every venue. The courtyard is inviting. The room was comfortable ,and thoughtfully decorated , with all the amenities needed. Just a "Slow Ride" away from the Brown County Music Center; we went to the Foghat Concert.

My husband and I loved this place! We stayed in the Sunshine Cabin, and it was well decorated and incredibly clean. There is some community outside areas with fireplaces as well that looked really enjoyable (it was raining during our stay so we couldn't use it). We also enjoyed how close we were to everything. We were just across the street from one of our favorite restaurants Big Woods. We will be staying there again for sure!

Great little place.

Was driving from the south back north, stopped off in town for a nice stop and to do some hiking nearby. This place was perfect and exceeded my expectations after the last few places I had been. The location is great, right in the small downtown area. There's a great pizza place directly across the street. This was definitely the cleanest place I've ever stayed. The cabin would be great for a solo traveler or a couple. Will be returning for a longer stay sometime in the near future.

We loved the Sunset Cottage. The property is surrounded by all the little shops. It made it easy for us to walk anywhere and explore the neighborhood. And we took in a theater play at the Playhouse. This was our 2nd time and we enjoyed it

I have been visiting Brown County for most of my life. Having Iris Gardens right downtown is a game changer! Affordable, cozy, and convenient are the words I would use to describe our stay! We will absolutely plan future trips to Nashville with Iris Gardens in mind!
