Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Brown County

We had an amazing stay at the Pete Nelson Treehouse in Germantown, KY. The craftsmanship and cozy vibe of the treehouse made it a perfect retreat, but what really made the experience special were the trails surrounding the property. We loved hiking through the woods, especially the fun challenge of finding all 10 hidden swings. Watching the kids romp around freely in nature was the highlight of our trip—it felt like a real-life adventure. Highly recommend for families looking to unplug and reconnect in a truly magical setting.

This cabin was perfectly described. It was cute and nicely furnished. Pamela was a great host answering all questions.

We have stayed in a lot of Airbnb's and Alicia's was probably the cleanest we have had. The house is very cute with lots of historic detail. The town is quaint, and we enjoyed being close to the river. It was nice to walk the area and see the town charm. Alicia was very helpful and informative as we had bad weather rolling in while we were there. She sent emergency information in case it was needed while we were there. Our girls enjoyed the cute bunk bed nook and the "cuteness" to the space. We will definitely stay again if in the area!!

second time staying here. Kati is a fabulous hostess, and the Franklin house is a gem. Really beautiful pastoral setting, and very comfortable. Will return when in the area again.

Hosts were very friendly and responsive. The house had everything you could dream of. Extra food, ice, coffee, extra pillows, bottles of water, fresh muffins, fantastic customer care. We will be back.

Fantastic retreat for our family of four and our dog. Peaceful, beautiful and a place with real meaning. Great sized cabin, well appointed, good hot tub and lots of fire wood for the fire pit. We enjoyed learning about Josh and his legacy and the foundation is doing great work. We will absolutely be back

The place was exactly what we expected and it suited our needs perfectly. I wish it didn’t rain because the back patio and hot tub looked great but we didn’t get to take advantage of them

This is such a wonderful place to be. The surroundings are beautiful and being right on the river is peaceful. Cannot say enough about Steven and Cynthia and all they do.

The house was fantastic! Barbara is a great host, everything was very thought out. The house had plenty of cookware, towels, and anything else you may need. Barbara was very thoughtful and left a snack basket, smores basket, coffee/coffee maker, firewood/fire starter, and plenty of board games. The house was beautiful with lots of cozy charm! The beds were super cozy and comfortable, we all slept great. The bathrooms were extremely clean with plenty of hot water available. The house had plenty of areas to hang out and enjoy the land, especially the deck out back in the morning and night. The neighbors were super friendly. The back yard had a fire pit, picnic table, and small creek perfect for kickin back and relaxing. Great house and great host!
