If you have a large family or group of friends in search of a tranquil getaway in Hendricks County, Natural Valley Ranch boasts the perfect accommodations.  Whether you are planning a family reunion, need a girls’ getaway or have out-of-town guests coming in for a wedding or other event, both the Cabin and the Cottage at Natural Valley Ranch provide comfort and amenities galore.  

Natural Valley Ranch is a sprawling 78-acre, family-owned horse farm known for its majestic horses and trail rides. While many come to the Ranch for just an afternoon of outdoor fun, those who spend the night in one of the spacious homes on the property are in for a real treat. 

When booking a stay at either the Cabin or the Cottage, your crew gets the best of both worlds. The Ranch is situated in a beautiful and serene wooded area of Hendricks County, yet it is just minutes from shopping, dining and any creature comfort you may need.

The Cabin and the Cottage are distinctly different, yet both provide plenty of space for large groups looking for cozy accommodations where they can make lasting memories.

The CottageThe Cottage at Natural Valley Ranch

Another great option for an overnight stay at Natural Valley Ranch is the Cottage.

Located on the same Natural Valley Ranch property, but with its own separate driveway, this hideaway is definitely secluded from the rest of the property.

This gorgeous country farmhouse boasts 4 bedrooms and 4 ½ bathrooms and can accommodate up to 16 guests.

With more than 3,000 square feet, there is plenty of space for your clan to spread out and enjoy some time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Built for RelaxationThe Porch on the Cottage at Natural Valley Ranch

If I was staying at the Cottage, you would likely find me lounging on the swing on the sprawling porch with a glass of wine in one hand and a good book in the other.

Or you may not be able to find me at all, as I’d be relaxing on the cozy private deck off the main floor master bedroom or soaking in the inviting jetted tub.

If you have children or teens in your party, they will likely gravitate to the Cottage’s basement. There you will find a large screen TV and several comfy couches along with a poker table and several pieces of exercise equipment.

Gather RoundThe kitchen in the Cottage at Natural Valley Ranch

The Cottage also offers plenty of spots on the main level to gather your whole crew together. Lounge in the living room with the large stone fireplace for a fun game night. Or head out back for an outdoor picnic on the patio and a friendly game of basketball.

Whether you spend time with extended family or dear old friends at the Cottage, its likely that you will all end up gathering in the kitchen at some point. Take advantage of the beautiful farmhouse kitchen as you whip up a feast. 

There’s plenty of room to gather everyone around the two large dining tables as your loved ones fill their bellies and give thanks for a memorable getaway.

The Great OutdoorsThe Pond behind the Cabin at Natural Valley Ranch

Saddle up for a trail ride atop one of the beautiful horses. Hike along the nearby trails, including the popular B&O Trail. Visit the goats, pigs and bunnies in the small petting zoo and the free-range chickens roaming about.

Be sure to say hi to the ranch’s famed pig, Hank, who can be found in the barn or roaming the grounds.

In warm weather, you can get out on the small lake in a canoe or paddleboat. If your stay coincides with an Indiana snowfall, be sure to bring your sleds so you can take advantage of the hills on the property.
