About this property

Secluded 4 bed 4 bath Cabin with Fire Pit, Hot Tub, and relaxing surroundings!

The Grand Arbor invites you to renew your connection with the healing power of the earth. Escape into the heart of 42 secluded acres of wooded forest. This four bedroom, three and a half bath family vacation log cabin home is the perfect place to rest and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. This property sleeps 16.

The 2900 square foot cabin was constructed in 2004 and is located in south-eastern Indiana, less than one hour west of Cincinnati or one hour east of Indianapolis in the Metamora/Brookville area. Conveniently located only 10 minutes from Brookville State Park and 5 minutes from the quaint historical town of Metamora, this secluded getaway welcomes you and your guests. Some of our recent visitors tell us that that the Grand Arbor feels like mountain chalet due to its spacious interior.

With large glass windows overlooking a mature woods and creek, the Grand Arbor is nestled in a valley with a southern exposure. Surrounding hiking trails and a multitude of fun outdoor activities are bountiful. Due to its picturesque and convenient location, the Grand Arbor truly is an ideal place for weekend getaways, vacations, family reunions, wedding receptions, Bachelor/Bachelorette parties, fishing trips, golf trips and even corporate retreats. There is a game room in the rec room at the ground level which has shuffleboard, poppa shot, and ping pong. This is sure to be a hit with kids and adults alike. The outdoor jacuzzi is popular with guests. This is a great way to relax in the warmth of soothing waters outside and enjoy the natural scenery that surrounds the home. Plenty of acreage to hike and explore the property

Wifi has recently been updated to 100 mbs so there shouldnt be any wifi issues as of summer 2024.

Must be 25 to rent.

High price for what we experienced

Dishwasher was not installing properly, leaked, and we had to hand wash all dishes. Upstairs shower leaked into main floor bathroom. Garbage pick up and two deliveries of water in the middle of the day on Saturday. Only bery basic cleaning done. Kitchen appliances filthy.

Relaxing Getaway

This cabin never disappoints! We are return visitors, and I loved seeing the upgrades to the furniture in the living room and turning the basement into a bedroom and game room. We have a wonderful time relaxing and laughing all weekend. Thank you for keeping this memory alive for us as a family.

Great location for groups.

My group stayed here for a nearby event. The interior of the building was great, and accommodated our large group quite well. There were no major issues with the property. The hosts were also extremely helpful and accommodating, going above and beyond for us multiple times leading up to our stay.

Property is nice. Owners are shady.

We were charged for a broken toilet seat that was already broken and glued back together when we arrived. We were charged for extra cleaning when there was trash under just about every bed when we got there including a bra. There was trash in the back lot that wasn’t even ours that we cleaned up. They even invented a broken chair. Now maybe the chair exists but if so we didn’t use it. They charged us for dog hair on furniture when we paid a pet fee. they charged us for dirty bed sheets when there’s no washer. Overall the property is pretty nice. Too bad the owners are shady.

Secluded Cabin

Very nice cabin secluded back in the woods. Tons of room inside with lots of bedrooms, large living room and game room. Plenty of area outside for activities. Nice fire pit area and hot tub off the deck. Close enough to Brookville if you need supplies but still feels like you’re miles away from civilization! Recommend!

Very quiet and peaceful

Property was very secluded and quiet. We had a group of 11 adults and there was plenty of room. We had a great time together. The water pressure was a little low but wasn't a deal breaker. We stayed clean and comfortable, AC kept us cool! Owners were very quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Very nice people.

Our group has stayed here for a week every year since 2019. The owners and property manager are communicative and helpful. The main floor is open concept and perfect for larger groups. It’s a second home to us that is the perfect space for making memories! We cherish our time there.

Great Place

Annual family gathering - sons, grandkids, brother, and nephews. The cabin is large and spacious. The beds were comfortable and plenty of bathrooms for everyone to use. The kitchen was very well equipped and fire pit area was used every night till after midnight. The town is fairly close and has everything needed. The lake big and with a nice beach area. Already booking next year.

A great secluded spot to relax

There was only five of us so it was plenty big enough with ample beds and bathrooms. The kids were plenty entertained by the game area downstairs and exploring some of the trails outside around the cabin. Hot tub was a fantastic bonus to enjoy outdoors surrounded by all the trees. The one hiccup was very minor and that was just locating the main gate, as it may have been helpful to have a sign or something out by the road. That’s just me being nitpicky though, it is a nice place well away from the main highways.

Family Christmas/New Years

This was a very nice, peaceful property. My adult kids and their significant others and my in-laws stayed here over the New Year's weekend and loved it. Even though it rained most of the weekend, the kids enjoyed the hot tub. We got to hike around the property and enjoy the peace and quiet. Overall, it was a great stay.

Great family getaway

We rented this cabin for our extended family to celebrate Thanksgiving. Our only disappointment was the folding table listed on the site was nowhere to be found. The place was great for the kids and we enjoyed the surrounding wildlife.

Perfect October Wedding

This was the perfect location for our small, intimate October wedding! Although it got chilly pretty quickly this year, we were still able to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony and reception. The inside of the cabin was large enough for everyone to get ready for the big day, and the outdoor space was absolutely perfect for a wedding setup! We held all the festivities on the lawn and even created a dancefloor with lights. And don't even get me started on all the stunning scenery for wedding photos! This place was bigger than we expected and definitely exceeded our expectations! There were plenty of beds for wedding guests to comfortably stay, and the number of bathrooms was outstanding! The kitchen was very well stocked, and we greatly appreciated there being two refrigerators. The layout worked perfectly for our needs, and we are so grateful we found this location for our special day. We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful property! We hope to one day make this trip a family tradition to share this special place with our future children.

I enjoy hiking and the outdoors. Prior to owning a log cabin home, I always enjoyed renting log cabins myself. It's a great way to escape the day to day routine of the city/suburban life. We have three kids in our family and our best memories are of the cabin.

Why they chose this property

The town of Metamora and Brookville are excellent areas to visit - enjoy the cozy towns and the peaceful living.

What makes this property unique

This place is a fantastic getaway location as it is secluded. You won't find other homes or vehicles anywhere near the place. You have complete privacy to enjoy the outdoors with the comforts of home nearby.
