Considerations before booking cabin getaways in Indiana
Regardless of whether you are booking a romantic getaway or family vacation in Indiana, do keep the following in mind.
1) Most cabins in Indiana require a minimum 2-night stay during the weekend. For long weekends, you need to book 3 nights at least.
2) The listings where I have just mentioned ‘couples getaway’, it means its for adults only. For families or large groups, do check the listings marked as ‘family getaway’.
3) The pricing that you see can change as per the season, day of the week and special occasion.
Most cabins would add taxes and a one-time cleaning fee while booking.
Dog-friendly cabins will ask for a one-time pet fee as well.
Do keep these costs in mind when narrowing down on your preferred cabin stay in Indiana.
4) The road network in Indiana is pretty good and quite scenic. You can easily access all of the cabins mentioned from cities such as Nashville, Indianapolis and Fort Wayne. Just the driving distance could be different with the furthest cabin at 2.5 hours’ drive.
