Fern Crest your cabin in the woods

Welcome to your serene cabin retreat in the woods, our true log cabin offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort.
Enjoy the beauty of nature from the screened porch, relax by the fire pit with Adirondack chairs, or take advantage of the grill and carport. Inside, you'll find a fully furnished kitchen, a queen bed downstairs, and two double beds plus a sleeper sofa in the loft. Unwind in the hot tub or stay connected with high-speed internet.
Set on a wooded property, Fern Crest is conveniently located just minutes from Patoka Lake Main Entrance (park pass included), Patoka Lake Winery, local restaurants, and boat rentals. After a day on the lake or exploring the trails, unwind by the fire pit, enjoy the porch, or have dinner on the back deck overlooking the tranquil woods.
We're also just 20 minutes from the historic French Lick Resort and Casino, as well as Pete Dye and Donald Ross golf courses.

As your host, I’m dedicated to making your stay as enjoyable as possible. Unlike remote hosts, I live within 1/4 mile of the property and am available by call or text anytime to assist with anything you need. Rest assured, you won’t be left out in the cold.
Our private cabin community is accessible only by gravel roads. Please be mindful of the dust and drive at a maximum of 10 miles per hour to ensure a pleasant experience for all.
Book your stay today and experience the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure! We understand that unexpected situations can arise. However, as a small business, cancellations, last-minute changes, or no-shows significantly impact us. We strongly encourage all guests to purchase travel insurance to cover unforeseen circumstances, as we are unable to offer refunds beyond our cancellation policy. We look forward to hosting you and making your stay unforgettable!

Weekend Getaway

Nice quiet property. We had a few minor issues when we arrived that Wes took care of quickly. Would recommend for anyone looking to get away for a weekend in a beautiful part of Indiana.

Nice!

We enjoyed our stay in this cabin. The only thing is that I'm the VRBO site, there was no mention of an actual pet deposit or the amount. It IS pet friendly but there's no mention of a fee until the rules are sent after booking. This wasn't an issue but for some it could be. Other than that, was awesome!IS
