Helmsburg Cabin | Secluded Cabin on 16 Beautiful Acres in NW Brown County!

1 Bedroom Cabin in Helmsburg, Morgantown

One bedroom w/ loft family cabin located on 16 wooded acres in NW Brown County. Great for families and weekend getaways!
Very secluded, peaceful -- beautiful in all seasons. Big front porch and the property is full of wildlife.
I've owned this family cabin for 25 years and regularly use it with my kids and friends. It's a second home I've tried to make the spaces for comfortable. Nice beds, huge deck, fantastic front porch, cozy living area.
I have a large kitchen with modern conveniences -- convection oven/stove, microwave, new fridge, good cookware, dishwasher (the kountry moveable type), coffee maker & keurig, electric skillet, crock pot, Weber grills, random spices, etc. I stay at short term rentals myself I hate dealing with a lousy kitchen -- that won't be a problem.
I adore music and if you do to, it's a fun experience. The house is wired so speakers on the deck and porch. I have 50K tunes on iTunes, on my computer. I have a turntable and 400 LP records.. The stereo has bluetooth so you can play your own music quite easily. There are also two guitars -- if you play, enjoy these.
There's a wood-burning stove which is wonderful to run during the cold months. Likely required in the Dec/Jan. Firewood is provided. Upstairs and downstairs have good AC through a recent mini-split unit. There's a large, covered front porch with overhead fans, which is where I spend a lot of my time.
The cabin has fiber -- very fast internet. We have two smart TVs and two DVD players, stereo (already noted), a windows laptop connected to the stereo.
The bath is nice -- shower insert, pedestal sink, etc.
One note -- this is a cabin deep in the woods. While we do everything we can to mitigate the native pests -- we still get native pests! Mice and some bugs are an occasional feature, as much as I try...
This is a 35 year old cabin, built from a design by Poole Saw Mill in Helmsburg, IN. It's poplar log that was laid green and seasoned in-place for two years. Then finished. The man who built it, Daniel, is Amish and did a nice job. He lived on the property for about for about five years and there are several charming outbuildings -- an outhouse, manger, canning shed, chicken coop and a little structure on the 'back forty'. Daniel lived in that crazy structure out back for a couple years with his wife and two kids while he was developing the property! I added a big barn and the large rear deck in 2001.

Summary: The cabin was exactly what we needed to unwind and relax! Beautiful property, clean home, all the amenities we could ever need and we got a surprise snow fall to top the perfect weekend off! Our host very easy to reach and communicated everything very clearly prior to our trip. Couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing and peaceful trip. We loved it and our dog Izzy did too! Thank you.. we will be back Katharine ritchison

Summary: Absolutely breathtaking! The perfect balance of rustic charm with modern conveniences. The property is just spectacular. From the moment my wife and I entered we were hooked. The sweet and oaky smell of the wood burning stove still lingering, the gorgeous exposed wooden beams, the view through the sliding glass doors framed the spectacular barn at the back of the property, and the peak of color in the trees. It was truly a jaw dropping experience for us. As a matter of fact, our plan was to go out to dinner our first night, but instead we just wanted to stay there and soaked up the ambience and listened to a fantastic collection of 33 LP's. Then when the stars came out; wow, just wow! We sat out under the stars every night with a glass of wine and listened to music. The time went far too fast and we were not ready to go home. Our host Curt was truly exceptional when it came to communication, directions, and making sure that our stay was spectacular. Curt, we cannot thank you enough for allowing us to share your little piece of heaven on earth.

Summary: This was our 2nd time at the cabin and it was just as nice as last year. Just the weather was a little colder. Hopefully we will be back next year.

Summary: Trip was wonderful. Very peaceful. Beautiful grounds. I am an OCD cleaner so the level of cleanliness was not like in my home. I had to realize it was a cabin in the woods not my home and leave my prejudices behind. The cabin has something that grows on you and just makes you relax. Loved the woods and trails. Went to Nashville and Morgantown, Our standard poodle loved it. Would defiantly stay again. I was surprised by the amount of stock left in cabin. Spices and supplies. I left some Kcups and paper plates myself. It seems to be almost a tradition. Easy trip to Nashville and easy to find. Host was great and let us check in early. God willing we will be back.

Summary: Cabin was very nice and very well stocked with everything that we needed. I would recommend this cabin. Google got us to the property but not to the driveway. We had to go about 1/10 of a mile up the road and turn on an unmarked road to find the driveway. There should be some instructions regarding this.

Summary: Enjoyed staying at this wonderful, dog-friendly cabin and property. From the covered porch, to the board games, the kitchen supplies, to the music, to the comfy bed, and wonderful property, we had a great relaxing stay. It felt like getting away to the family cabin...not manicured, just an authentic getaway.

Summary: We sought a cabin out in the woods where we could bring the dogs, be close to multiple hiking spots and do some major relaxing. We found it all at this cabin. Close to Brown County State Park, Yellowwood SP and Morgan-Monroe SP and we hit the small town of Nashville for shopping and Big Woods pizza. Many of our meals were made at the cabin and the kitchen had everything we needed. We loved walking around the property, checking out the tadpoles in the pond, letting the dogs run at full-speed through the field and making a campfire. A major highlight for us was the record collection! We hardly turned on the TV because we kept on finding another solid album we just had to listen to. Bonus? He has speakers on the front porch & back deck so we were constantly listening to music. Can't wait to get back someday soon.
