I’m not really much of an outdoor person, but there’s something relaxing about staying in a cabin or cottage. Given, I would prefer one fully furnishes with heat and AC. But, that’s not the perfect or ideal cabin experience for everyone. Regardless of what kind of cabin or cottage you’re looking to stay in, you will be pleased to know there are a lot of options to consider in the state of Indiana. In this piece, I included some places you can rent as well as just some pictures of cabins in the state I really liked. Enjoy!
- Historic Pre-Civil War Farmhouse
Both pictures are from flipkey.com I know what you’re thinking, this farmhouse probably isn’t what came to mind when you were thinking about staying at a cabin. But, it’s one of the top choices when you’re looking for a cabin and camping experience in the state of Indiana. It has three bedrooms and four bathrooms. It sleeps a total of eight people and comes equipped with a basketball court, in-ground swimming pool, and a playground for the children.
- The Wellington Lake Cottage
Both pictures are from flipkey.com This cottage is big enough for eight adults and four children to stay in at the same time. It has central A/C and heat. There’s even a patio with a glass door that provides comfortable seating and a beautiful view of the lake. You can find this cottage in Middlebury.
- Cottage on Scenic Hudson Lake
Both pictures are from flipkey.com This cottage features two bedrooms and one bathroom. It’s ideal for a family of four. It’s located in New Carlisle and is a great place to bring your boat and enjoy some fishing, skiing, tubing, and watching of the beautiful Hoosier sunsets and sunrises.
- The Goose Pond Cottage
Both pictures are from flipkey.com The Goose Pond Cottage is a peaceful retreat that’s going to feel a little more like you are staying in a cabin (if you can’t tell by the picture of one of the bedrooms.) The cottage has two bedrooms and one bathroom. It’s ideal for a family of four to enjoy. Roku, Premier, DirecTV, and WiFi are setup for guests to enjoy.
- Lazy Creek Cabin in French Lick
Both pictures are from flipkey.com I know what you’re thinking – finally, an actual cabin in this list. Whether you’re staying at a cottage or a cabin, the point is to get away and stay with your family for a while. But, I can tell you this is a beautiful option if you’re looking for a relaxing retreat. This cabin has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It’s ideal for as many as eight people to stay in at one time. It’s just five miles away from the heart of French Lick which makes it perfect for going to the casino, shopping, the museum, the winery, or the water park just to name a few attractions you can enjoy.
Now, let’s take a look at some more mysterious cabins in Indiana…. Do you know where these are?

The next few cabins are going to be cabins I found thanks to the incredible photographers on Flickr. These cabins have less information attached to them (unless the photographer included details.) But, some of these cabins were so beautiful I had to include them in this piece!
- Beautiful wide angle snapshot of a cabin somewhere in Derby that’s a rental.

- Another gorgeous cabin somewhere in Indiana. The photographer leaves off any details other than being the owner of the cabin and it being in Indiana.

- This log cabin is in Prophetstown State Park. I’m not really big on camping and I’m not really an outdoor person. But, it looks like staying inside of this cabin would make for a very outdoorsy experience.

- This is an abandoned cabin somewhere in the woods of Indiana. Abandoned cabins are cool, but they kind of give me the creeps too!

- I decided to include this one because it looks like a cabin and is advertised as one. It appears to be a little shop in Metamora that sells fudge and other goodies!

I’m more of a visual person myself. Sometimes pictures just aren’t enough to decide whether or not you want to go somewhere. I did a little digging and found a few awesome videos about some of the cabins in Indiana. Watching them is like taking a virtual tour of these cabins!
Here is a video/slide show of Brown County Vacation Cabins in Indiana. I don’t know about you, but I think they look incredible and very inviting!
Here is a beautiful cabin waiting for you in Vincennes, Indiana!
13. This is Serenity Springs in Michigan City. I know the video is more of a promo/advertisement than anything. But, if you are looking for a romantic cabin getaway, this may be just what you’ve been searching for!
- This is an abandoned dome cabin and campground deep in the woods. It’s sitting on the Monroe Reservoir if you’re curious. I love videos of abandoned explorations! Don’t you?
15. This cabin stretches across 2,900 square feet of space and is absolutely beautiful. It was built back in 2004 and is located in the Metamora/Brookville area of the state. The cabin is less than 10 minutes from Brookville State Park. It offers a very secluded and relaxing experience.
