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!

The rental was clean and cozy. The bed comfortable and clean. The couch set low for me though, and the shower was slippery, and had no hand rail. If you have to use a grab bar, bring along one. I loved that the toilet set higher, and was comfy. They were well stocked with toilet paper and coffee supplies. Very friendly.
