Lots of fine boutiques, crafts, and fine dining
Con
Not much really for the ordinary guy.
In a nutshell
Nice way to spend a day, but It's more advertising than reality.
Toughluck Says: Hiking, fishing, horseback riding, sightseeing, nature center and the old covered bridge are just a few of the things you can do.For details see my Brown County SP page.
Good eating and Blue Grass Music
barobins Says: On Friday evenings, go to the Gnaw Bone Tenderloin, Gnaw Bone, Indiana. it is in an old Marathon Gas Station. They serve Breaded Pork Tenderloin on a Kaiser Roll and it is EXCELLENT. Then in the garage bay where you eat there is a Blue Grass Band that plays EXCELLENT foot...
highlandlaura Says: A drive through the area and on the back roads presents views of vast valleys at the foot of tall wooded hills, home to the natives of the past centuries, the Indians of Indiana. Indiana means land of Indians. High tourist season is the Fall when the leaves are most...
royharper Says: Take a look around at some interesting architecture.1900th century American architecture, well-maintained.

royharper Says: Visit the Nashville General Store.Everything you'd expect in a general store - Plus, fresh baked bread!
Most women come to Nashville,...
gkitzmil Says: Most women come to Nashville, IN to shop for little gift items! I'd say it's a tourist trap but one man's junk is another's treasure. If you like ruffles, candles, and country items you'll enjoy this. There are a few places I like but not with ruffles.

gkitzmil Says: RELAX! Enjoy the trees, sit and sip some iced tea or maybe a beer (see my restaurant tip).

The Sandwich Shop: Bobby Knight lovers hangout
phildeni Says: This place is dedicated to the controversial (in some parts) basketball coach, Bobby Knight. Every thing is about him. You can buy souveniers of all kinds, tee shirts,hats,basketballs, etc. Breaded pork tenderloin sandwich, and onion rings. It' SO Indiana..

gkitzmil Says: this recommendation breaks my own policy. I ONLY recommend places I know personall and for a restaurant that means I must have eaten at the famous Story Restaurant. Okay, I've been here many times but never came at eating time so I always just stop by enjoy the quaint view...
Not my favorite by a long-shot...
gkitzmil Says: Not my favorite by a long-shot but best known: Nashville House -- supposedly typical Indiana cooking. Last time I ate there I was very dissappointed. believe it or not, fried biscuits

gkitzmil Says: You can eat here if you'd like but I like to go into the bar in The Season's. If you get one of the two window booths you can look at the hills and the trees. Very peaceful and a draft beer is only $1.75 for domestic including a couple of Michelob offerings the inset picture...
Helpfulness
Oh, boy -- during the week the town is dead by 10 pm. Weekends you may find music in the Pine Room (first stoplight EAST of town, turn south - directly opposite Season's lodge and behind the McDonald's and kind of a local place or at the Brown County Inn. Ask when my friend Don Pedigo will be playing. He's a very good singer!
The Brown County Inn is built to look rugid but don't let this photo fool you. The place includes a convention center.

Still beautiful but -- those trendy little shops
gkitzmil Says: While Nashville has a certain small town charm and is nestled in the rolling hills of Southern Indiana, it could easily be called a tourist trap! You CAN find artists and craftspeople in this little town. And you can also find lots of trinkets from everywhere! If you come on...
The whole town is a tourist...
royharper Says: The whole town is a tourist trap (and I mean that literally) in October and early November. 'Trap' because it could easily require 2 hours to simply drive through Nashville at peak shopping season. My advice it to avoid the town altogether at this time of year.
Toughluck Says: Located about 20 miles north of Nashville, the Bean Blossom Covered Bridge is on the 'old main' road between Bean Blossom and Nashville. Entering Bean Blossom from the south, it will be the 1st left and that's a left-backward turn of about 130 degrees. [45 degrees is left...
gkitzmil Says: just driving out to Story, Indiana almost any time of year is very relaxing so here's the map - click on it to enlarge
gkitzmil Says: Little Nashville an international hotbed? > Last night I had a great experience in Nashville. You can see on this page that my wife and I like to stop for food and beer. We hear people coming in speaking German. Since we've lived in Germany we eventually introduce...

gkitzmil Says: wander somewhat off the beaten path. Enjoy the vistas. Tour into the largest State Park in Indiana which can be accessed from Highway 46 either East or West of Nashville.

Brown County, Indiana, with Nashville, IN as its county seat was known by artists for the beautiful hills and scenery. T.C. Steele made the local scenery rather well known in his paintings. Now...
My first visit to this area hopefully won't be my last. A bit back-woodsy but a truly nice area made better by one old friend and several new ones. Yanks are nice people once you get to know them. And...
We took a tour of the town and surrounding area on this little "train" with Engineer Bill at the throttle. It was quite enlightening and well worth the $4.00 each.
Nashville, Beautiful Brown County
