From the Brown-Bartholomew county line on Indiana 46, proceed east 3.75 miles to an intersection with Grandview Lane. Turn right (south) and go about 1.5 miles to Youth Camp Road. Turn right (west) and continue for another 1.5 miles. The road will swing right, then left, then back right as it rises over the south shoulder of Taylor Hill. Almost immediately after the road begins to drop down, watch for a drive off to the right with large pillars on either side (10848 Youth Camp Road). Turn right (north) and follow this paved driveway past well-kept grounds to a large house, which is owned by Rick Johnson. On the day I visited I met the nanny who was supervising the children at play. She said that the house sits on the county high point, and from what I could observe, that appears to be true.
