Our story
Nature Stay Getaways is a family-run collection of 18 cabins, treehouses, farm stays and lakefront homes in Martinsville and Indianapolis, Indiana.
It started on a 60-acre working farm — Ruby Ranch — where we built our first stays by hand: a treehouse with milled-walnut ceilings, cabins on the lake, a cowboy bunkhouse by the pasture. Horses in the field, hot tubs under the stars, fire pits at the water's edge. Guests kept telling us the same thing: this doesn't feel like a rental, it feels like an escape. So we kept building.
Today every property is still owner-operated. We clean them, stock them, and answer the phone ourselves — which is also why we'd rather you book direct: no platform fees for you, and you're talking to the people who actually live here.
Most of our stays are 15–35 minutes from downtown Indianapolis — close enough for the airport and a night out, far enough that the loudest thing you'll hear is the fire crackling.
