    Wonderful Girls Weekend!

    April 29, 2013

    We booked Friday night and then later decided we wanted to stay on Saturday. Our room was already booked for that Saturday, so they scheduled us for another room. I was concerned about having to deal with moving our things (especially since check-out was at 11 a.m. and check-in was at 4 p.m.), but they told us to leave our things in our room and they moved them for us! It was the little, unexpected pleasantries like that and the out-of-the-ordinary helpful attitude of the employees that really made our stay that much more enjoyable. The restaurant had wonderful food (and they'll call your room if there's a wait to let you know when your table is available!) and the rooms were so very clean. We stayed in the Bohm room our second night and it was a nice room, but we just loved the Vawter room with its balcony (with the french door that let in so much wonderful natural light). The Inn is also very conveniently located in the middle of the shops, so you can get your "shop till you drop" day going right away! We absolutely loved the Inn and will be going back!

    Nice Getaway! Close to everything!

    April 11, 2013

    My husband and I wanted to get away for a short trip. Always loved Nashville and I had stayed at the Artists Colony on business in 2011. I made reservations and we had a great time. Nice, helpful staff, good food, location, and true to the history of the Arts in Nashville. We will go back! The Vermillions

    Artists Colony is a nicely located B & B which has lovely rooms and a friendly and accommodating staff. We had a minor room issue and they moved us to a much nicer and better appointed room. The morning breakfast buffet is expansive and offers tasty and excellent choices that do vary from morning to morning. Additionally it is located right in the middle of all the shops (which my wife really liked). A very nice place to stay.

    Best place to stay in Nashville, IN!

    September 02, 2012

    My recent stay at the Artists Colony Inn was my fourth visit there! I'm always pleased with the accommodations. This charming inn is located in the canter of town and is convenient to so many things! The friendly atmosphere is so inviting, and the staff will make you feel right at home. Second floor rooms with balconies are especially appealing and it's great to have the restaurant on the premises. I wouldn't think of staying anywhere else when I go to Nashville, IN!

    We chose Artists Colony Inn and we are so HAPPY we did!!

    August 26, 2012

    My husband and I met my college room mate and her husband for a weekend getaway to celebrate our 34th and 32nd wedding anniversaries. This was a first trip to Nashville, IN for all of us. We booked a weekend at Artists Colony Inn, after looking at a long list of area lodging possibilities. We hit the jackpot...friendly service, very clean and centrally located to all the shops. The restaurant was also wonderful! You have to try the meat loaf...it's scrumptious!! It tasted just like Grandma used to make. Everything was home-made and delicious. When we asked the locals where to eat in town, they all mentioned Artists Colony Inn first! In fact, we only ate one meal at another restaurant (pizza at Big Woods Brewery-also GREAT!) in the 3 days we were in Nashville. We are all so happy we chose Artists Colony Inn and we plan to make getting together there an annual event! Plan to visit Nashville, IN soon and make a reservation to stay at Artists Colony Inn while you are there! Susan from Waterloo, IL

    Great Place to Stay!

    August 15, 2012

    My husband and I recently stayed here, and we both loved it! The rooms were simple, clean, quiet, and had character. The breakfast buffet was delicious and the staff was friendly. You can't beat the location, it is RIGHT in the heart of Nashville. We highly recommend this B & B!

    Love this Place!

    August 13, 2012

    My daughter and I make an annual trip to Brown County and would stay no where else. The rooms are wonderfully simple and always so well maintained. The staff treats you like family and we always feel at home when we are there. The food in the restaurant is delicious and the atmosphere is like being in someone's dining room at their home. This is truly my favorite place to stay period.

    Simply the Best

    January 19, 2012

    My daughter and I visit the Artists’ Colony Inn every year and love to stay there. The staff are always on top of their jobs, and are pleasant, helpful, and often funny. The complimentary breakfast is very satisfying, whether you like a hot or cold start to your day, and the dining room is pretty. The rooms are spotless. We enjoy the artwork on the walls, and we especially like that they have hardwood floors and the furniture is of simple design. After a day of our senses being bombarded by all that’s available in this small town, we appreciate having a retreat where the eyes and mind can rest. There is no amenity missing and we consider this Inn top value.
