Why Brown County Is Perfect for Small Groups, Meetings, and Events

We’ve all been there: Attending conferences and events in the same old hotel ballrooms, hosted in the same old locations, eating the same old food, staying in the same old hotel rooms. The thought crosses your mind, “There’s got to be a better way!” And there is.

Don’t settle for the status quo. It’s time to think outside the box! Skip the expected and gather your group somewhere unexpected: Brown County, Indiana! Visit our Group Travel page to start planning your group getaway!

Here’s why Brown County is perfect for small groups, meetings, and events:

It’s anything but cookie cutter!

When planning a gathering, you’re looking for locations that can host your group for a few days. Somewhere that has meeting spaces, enough rooms for everyone to stay the night, catering for the whole group, and fun activities for attendees to do in their free time.

Who says that place has to be somewhere ordinary? Forget the bland, boring downtown hotels we’ve all been to. Where everything is typical. And nothing is special.

For groups who want to gather differently, Brown County offers a one-of-a-kind setting that sets itself apart from big-city venues.

Why pound the pavement in the concrete jungle when you can be surrounded by the peaceful forest? Our majestic wilderness and rustic charm will make you feel like you’ve traveled somewhere far away and remote, which creates a more intentional and memorable experience for your group.

And our genuine hospitality will make you feel welcomed and right at home. Brown County is a unique, immersive destination that will help your group truly connect with one another.

It’s a one-stop-shop!

It’s FUN!

Wondering what to do with your group after “business hours”?
