All u can eat breakfast. Food ok, nothing special but nothing bad. Decent meats, good fruit, not sure scrambled eggs were real. Service attentive but just lukewarm. Coffee kept full and very hot. Good selection. Atmosphere very Brown County
The Brown County Inn was renovated within the last 2 years and the place looks great with the upgrades. The dining room is well lit and decorated nicely, the pool is well-maintained and spacious, and the hallways are clean and bright. The rooms are nice as well, however my infant did manage to find trash underneath the bureau and the bed (just 2 small candy wrappers), and there were sunglasses left behind (folded and stashed in the standing lamp). The bathroom did not have a working fan, and the unused vents located in the shower stall were stuffed full of dust and debris. The bathroom ceiling is a drop-style with tiles that were molding in spots. I hope that management reads this review and recognizes the need to renovate the bathrooms in the rooms - if it were not for the bathroom issues, this would easily be a 4 or 5 star review. The staff are very friendly, the food was tasty, and the pillows and beds were surprisingly soft and very comfortable. The BCI has a great location, and the (hopefully ongoing) renovations have made this inn the best place to stay in Nashville! (I was raised in Brown County and visit family frequently, this is the ONLY place in Nashville worth staying overnight!)
Great place to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Great location, within walking distance from downtown Nashville, IN and close enough to go hiking and enjoy nature at Brown County state park. The staff is very friendly. The walls are a bit thin, and bathroom a bit cramped. The amenities like the pool and mini golf are included with the rate. I would stay there again.
Great food, great atmosphere, great location, and great for kids. We live locally, so I've never stayed in the rooms, but I know the owners have done a lot of work the last few years to update and improve all aspects of the Inn and Restaurant. Even if you're not staying there, you can still eat in the restaurant. If the weather cooperates, they have an awesome deck for outdoor eating. Free simple putt putt course right off the deck. This is fun for all ages, but a special sanity saver if you have kids and can send them to play while you sit, watch them, and enjoy your drink until food comes! Parking is free, but you can also easily walk there from town, especially if you use the Salt Creek Trail (entrance by the CVS).
Visited with family to have drinks and enjoy some music. The bar area was nice and drinks and service came quickly. Comfortable seating and table areas. It seems odd that they have placed the performance are in the corner of a cramped L-shaped bar area when there's a huge rooms right behind it. Seems like a wasted opportunity for a truly great music venue. Would also recommend better signage for the restrooms, they're kind of hard to find.
5 stars not because it's fancy or opulent, but it is a fantastic place to take kids. Pool is really nice and is a hybrid indoor/outdoor setup with overhead doors. Restaurant has high quality menu (the salad bar sucks, but the menu items are fantastic!) Try the pork chops! Super friendly staff. Free mini golf! (Don't expect a super complicated setup), overall a beautiful property, very clean rooms and unbeatable amenities for the cost.
The Brown County Inn has great rooms, the courtyard is beautiful and the bar/restaurant was very good with local wines and great service. We saw a local singer who was amazing! The pool is very nice and clean. It was close to the shops in downtown Nashville. Great place to stay. I would not stay anywhere else when going to Nashville, IN
The outdoor area of the Inn is the focal point of the stay. The rooms are definitely not going to be.
While the web site clearly states that the rooms have been updated, I found this hard to believe. Our bathroom while not 'dirty' certainly left something to be desired. The toilet handle needed to be held down for it to flush and the wall mounted air conditioner struggled to keep the room cool at night, and as result the room started to smell off a bit.
In my sister's room, they had to wait over 5 minutes for the light in the bathroom to warm up to turn on, and their bath tub wouldn't drain prompting a call to the front desk. To their credit they did fix that quickly.
While we experienced sub par "updated rooms" my parents had a great room. Bathroom quite nicely updated with new flooring, new vanity, new bathtub, and a new dresser in the living space.
The outdoor space is great though. With a big playground area with plenty of room for a lot of kids, an outdoor mini golf course, a horseshoe pit, shuffleboard, and a pool area that can be open rain or shine (not lightning though). There is plenty for adults and kids to do.
With a short walk in to town, and nearby wineries, The Brown County Inn is a great place to stay to enjoy what the area has to offer. Just don't look to spend a lot of time in your room if you get one of the "kinda updated rooms".
We have stayed at this Inn 3 or 4 times per year with family and friends,for the past 9 or 10 years. We understand there is a new owner. The prices of rooms went up and the food was terrible. We had dinner and left over 70% of it. We should never have gone back for breakfast, but thought maybe the dinner was just a bad night. The breakfast was just as bad. Our room was newly painted, but the bathroom light didn't work and one of the two beds smelled like urine. What a disappointing stay. Several people in the halls asked us if we had been there before and they were upset also. Never again
Was attending a 2 day conference. The rooms were clean and spacious, quick WiFi, comfortable bed. The conference room was well suited to our needs,and the staff was friendly, professional and helpful. Great experience all the way around.
Rooms are nice, clean and quiet. Nice indoor pool with many garage type doors that can be opened in warm weather-very cool! Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Inn is kept very, very clean. Restaurant is very good.
It was very wonderful and cozy. The big indoor pool was nice and heated. There was a play ground along with mini golf. The people were very hospitable and kind. The breakfast was amazing and a lot of food! Definitely will be staying here again.
I tried the restaurant for dinner. I had the fried half chicken, salad bar, smashed potatoes, grilled green beans. The food was fresh, hot, and abundant. My criticism would be that the chicken needed additional seasoning and there needs to be a variety of salad dressings. They offered home made ranch dressing. It tasted fresh, but I wouldn't consider it a ranch dressing. To me, it was a bleu cheese. I wasn't crazy about it. The salad bar was very clean and well-stocked. The taco soup available at the salad bar was exceptional. My experience would have been five star, had there been a variety of salad dressings, and had the chicken been fully seasoned. I loved the atmosphere and it is rustic and inviting. I will be back!
We came in for a wedding and had great stay. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. Buffet was served as breakfast both days and I was a little disappointed not to be able to order off menu because the food sounded good. The scent of clean and wood was refreshing. Pool was warm. I would add this place to my 'to stay at' list.
