Wide Open and Comfortable
The property was exactly as advertised. Beautiful home and outdoor setting, open, and plenty of room for a family. Fully equipped kitchen and cozy bedrooms. If I were staying longer, I would have utilized the downstairs fitness room. This was a wonderfully relaxing place to stay. We felt far from town, but we were actually really close to both Nashville and Bloomington. Highly recommend.

Nice place to stay between Bloomington and Nashville, IN
We were only here for one night but enjoyed our time. Everything was clean and spacious and the listing is very accurate in its description and photos. It's about a 15-20 minute drive to either Bloomington or Nashville and would make a great base of operations if you had a trip and wanted to visit both those towns.

High school friends get together
Two of our friends had to cancel. But the remaining two of us made the best of it. This is my second time staying at The Wilds. Such a lovely space. Love being in Brown County with all the mod cons. I gave four stars on cleanliness because the kitchen sink had food remnants in it, the control panel on the stove was greasy, and the coverlet on the farthest bedroom on the left had a stain. Not a big deal, but thought you should know.

Brown County Awesome
Beautiful, peaceful setting and amazing property - the house was very beautifully decorated, very neat and clean and everything needed and then some provided as well as a welcome gift. Communication with Nick was easy and always upbeat and positive. Lovely recommendations and easy to follow directions, and timely communications helped make our stay great. The location was perfect with its proximity to Nashville, Bloomington, Brown County State Park and more - we absolutely loved the grounds and our time at Hard Truth Distillery - and the LC Steele Historic Home and Site. More to see and do then time allowed. But always good a the end of the day, happy and tired from our adventures, to come back to our lovely "home away from home" and sit on the patio and watch the moon rise over the field and the deer grazing. Can't say enough - would highly recommend. (only thing missing - not important to us this time - but important if I was with other friends or family who enjoy playing games and cooking and dining to together at a big table indoors is a indoor dining table - with these friends and the beautiful weather - that was not missed - we loved being on the patio.)

A lovely and well cared for secluded property just a short drive to hiking, shopping, dining, music and art. Very clean, updated decor, well stocked with 4 large comfy beds. You can't beat the view while enjoying meals and cocktails on the back patio or sitting around the fire pit. Wifi worked well. Owner/manager very responsive.

Spring break getaway
We had a great time hanging out with our friends, playing games, and eating dinner between hikes and outings. The house was a good fit for us. The only thing the house lacked for us was a big table that would have allowed us to eat together and play games as one big group. We appreciate the space to spread out, the clean and modern decor, and the beautiful secluded location. The property owners were very helpful and made our stay easy. We would recommend this place to anyone visiting the Brown County / Bloomington area.

Family Christmas in January
We rented this property for our family to spend a late Christmas in January. The house was wonderful. It was everything we hoped for and we plan to stay again next year. The house was modern and beautifully decorated. They had many extras for our family to enjoy. The owners were friendly and very responsive to any questions I had before the stay.

Great to work with
Our family of 4 stayed with another family of 4 and absolutely enjoyed our short getaway for Fall Break. There was a small issue with check-in and within minutes we had a call with the property owners. They were so accommodating and nice to work with. Both families agreed that we would stay again. The firepit area was a bonus, as well as a space for our teens to hangout away from the parents in the basement. Highly recommend!

Wonderful place to stay with plenty of room and lovely outdoor space. Pictures are accurate, but we did not realize there was no inside table for meals. Given that we had two days of torrential rain, we could not eat on the patio table, which also only offers 6 chairs. There is the kitchen bar which seats 6, but we had 8 in our family. Of course, we made due. Otherwise, we had every we could have needed.
