Coachlight Musical Theatre (This has closed!!)

Brown County Wineries
The Nashville/Bloomington area is home for many fine Wineries. Enjoy wine tasting and bring
home a bottle to enjoy by the fire!
We recommend Chateau Thomas Winery in Nashville where you can listen to live music 4-7pm on weekends and enjoy wine and cheese in their
adjacent room! A wonderful way to spend Friday and Saturdays evenings after a day of strolling through Nashville.
We recommend the "Dry Reisling" wine!
Oliver Winery/Bloomington (stroll their beautiful landscaped grounds and enjoy a bottle of wine outside overlooking the lake),
and
Enjoy guided horseback trail riding and hay rides in beautiful
Brown County.
on weekends be prepared to take a little journey with the youngsters
on The Apple Express train which travels around our HayMound Playground activities, new Super Slide, Hay Mound & Rope
Barn, Gem Panning, Straw Mountain, AppleVille Trike Track, and Baffling Bamboo Maze. Applewood Smoked Chicken Sandwiches
are being served on hearty bread with or without the trimmings; sides are also available. Hot dogs will be available for the
skeptical younger ones. During the summer we carry local home-grown fruits and vegetables with exotic spreads, salsas,
baking mixes, and our huge selectionof jams, jellies, dressings and fruit butters. So come on by the Apple Works. We'll have
some cold cider waiting for you when you arrive.

Horsebackriding Links and Articles:
These are some website's that might
help you in your horseback ride trail planning while at our cabin........
Several places will board your own horses
for your visit. Try Rawhide Ranch
2) Charles Deam/Wilderness West Area Trails are really
nice too and a little closer, maybe 1/2 hr to get there. http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/hoosier/recreation/trail_rogs/deam_wilderness.pdf
We like both these places and you can download the trail maps online at the link above. There's also a little
bait shop called the Fishin' Shed on the way on Rt 446 south of Bloomington that sells the trail permits so we usually
run out there the night before or on the way (if your trailer's not to big) to get our trail passes. If you know
what days you are going to ride at what places, you can order them ahead of time from the links above.
