The Spotlight on Abe Martin Lodge & Cabins

Rustic Comfort Meets Music Getaway in Nashville, IN

Set within the scenic Brown County State Park, Abe Martin Lodge & Cabins blends rustic charm with modern comfort. Surrounded by forest trails and peaceful vibes, this 3-star lodge offers a laid-back stay just a short drive from local music venues and the Indiana University concert scene. With cozy rooms, some featuring private balconies, and on-site perks like a hot tub and water park, it’s a unique choice for concert-goers looking to wind down in nature.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate the peaceful atmosphere after a high-energy show—thanks to the lodge’s location within the park, it's refreshingly quiet at night. It's about a 30-minute drive to Bloomington's key venues, making it perfect for those who don’t mind a scenic route back. With a 24-hour front desk and plenty of space to relax, it’s a solid choice for late check-ins post-show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want to stay together in a cabin setting
  • Solo travelers seeking a peaceful base after seeing a favorite artist
  • Couples making a weekend of it with hiking and music
  • Fans wanting quiet recovery time after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious music fans who don’t mind a short drive

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up comforting fare, and there are grill facilities for DIY dining. While there’s no 24/7 room service, vending machines are stocked for late-night snack cravings. Breakfast is available—perfect after a late night, and downtown Nashville offers walkable dining options just a few minutes away.

Nightlife Options

While the lodge itself is more about stargazing than strobe lights, you’re a quick drive from downtown Nashville’s bars and live music spots. For those preferring a chill night in, the shared lounge and outdoor terrace offer a great way to unwind with friends.

What People Say

Guests love the cozy, cabin-style feel and the chance to connect with nature. Reviews highlight the friendly staff, clean rooms, and the unexpected bonus of the indoor water park and hot tub. Many appreciate the value and peaceful setting after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

If you're looking for urban nightlife or quick access to venues, the location might feel remote. Wi-Fi can be spotty in some areas, and late-night food options are limited—so plan ahead if you’ll be coming back hungry.

The Bottom Line

For music lovers who want a quiet, nature-filled place to recharge after a concert, Abe Martin Lodge & Cabins offers a warm, rustic retreat just far enough to feel like an escape.

Not worth the money if...

Liked: The location for this stay was beautiful.
Disliked: There was poor internet the entire stay, including the ability to relax and use the TV. The bedding was AWFUL. The mattress was extremely hard and uncomfortable making sleep difficult. The breakfast was also very expensive, $16 per person to eat. Breakfast should be an accommodation of your stay, especially with the location being so far back into the park. I would not stay here again.

NO HOT TUB DESPITE IT...

Liked: Nothing this time! Dirty cabin, hard to get luggage to Cabin. My son fell twice near the sidewalk and steep step up to sidewalk.
Disliked: NO HOT TUB!!!! BEEN OUT FOR AWILE. DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE FIXED!!! NO ALERT ON THE WEBSITE OR WHEN I CALLED FOR THE RESERVATION!!! WE PLANNED WITH MY HUSBAND'S DOCTOR FOR A REHABILITATION SPA AND EXERCISE WITH WARMTH OF THE HOT TUB FOR WARMING MUSCLES SO HE COULD DO HIS ROTATOR CUFF EXERCISES. I SENT A LONG CHAT AND EMAIL TO BOOKING.COM WITH NO RESPONSE!!! I AM SUING BECAUSE WE PLANNED OUR ENTIRE SPA REHABILITATION EXERCISE PROGRAM AROUND USING THE HOT TUB FACILITIES AT ABE MARTIN LODGE!!! I AM SO TIRED OF PAYING FOR SERVICES LISTED THAT ARE NOT AVAILABLE WHEN WE GET THERE! THERE WERE NO OTHER ACCOMMODATIONS WITH A HOT TUB NEARBY. NOT EVEN 2 HRS AWAY! THEREFORE I REQUEST OUR ENTIRE REFUND FOR FRAUD, BREACH OF CONTRACT, AND LACK OF NOTICE ON THE WEBSITE USED TO ENTICE US TO COME TO THEIR WATER PARK AND HOT TUB. WE HAVE BEEN THERE SEVERAL TIMES. SOMETIMES TWICE A YEAR AND WE BRING FAMILY AS WELL WHO STAY ALL NIGHT. SO OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE REFERRED ENOUGH BUSINESS AND BROUGHT ENOUGH BUSINESS TO THE LODGE FOR THEM TO COMPENSATE US FOR THIS TRIP SO THAT WE CAN GO ANOTHER TIME!!! MY HUSBAND PLANNED HIS REHABILITATION WITH HIS DOCTOR SIGNING OFF ON HIM USING THIS ABE MARTIN LODGE HOT TUB TO CONTINUE TO IMPROVE AND REHAB HIS REPAIRED TORN ROTATOR CUFF. YOU SEE, WITH THE HOT TUB IT WARMS THE MUSCLES SO HE CAN DO HIS EXERCISES AND STRETCH THE TENDON WHICH WAS REPLACED BY HIS LATISSIMUS DORSI FLAP. THIS WAS A BIG SURGERY AND WE DON'T HAVE A HOT TUB, NOR DOES OUR LOCAL YMCA. SO THE DOCTOR SAID THIS WILL REALLY REALLY REALLY HELP BY REHABING WITH USE OF THE HOT TUB!! HIS PROCEDURE IS RARE SO HIS DOCTOR IS TAKING PICTURES OF HIS PROGRESS FOR A MEDICAL RESEARCH AND A MEDICAL RESEARCH JOURNAL. DOCTOR WANTED HIM TO FIND A HOT TUB, SO HE COULD PUSH HIS MUSCLES DURING EXERCISES BY WARMING THEM 1ST AND THEN DOING HIS REHAB AND STRETCHING OF THIS LATISSIMUS DORSI THAT WAS USED FOR THE ROTATOR CUFF.
