About this property

Nice secluded area for any occasion, family vacation, romantic getaway, Girls/guys trip! We are right by the bloody run trout stream. Plenty of yard for games or roaming. Newly built pond with dock, kayaks, paddle boat and beach area. Pond is shared with The cottage guests only. If you love nature and a warm campfire you will love the Cabin!
Don’t be alarmed by the train noise it’s actually pretty neat to see the train go by at night while sitting by the fire. Railway Lodge is a unique area and right next to Spook Cave Campground which has an amazing cave tour! If you are wanting to add more family or friends to your trip , we also have The cottage “ walking distance” which sleeps 4. Still private but an option if you are looking to add more guests. We are still close to many attractions around the area. Many guests have loved the secluded area.
The Cabin has a loft bedroom with 2 queen beds, fully stocked kitchen, bathroom with shower, charcoal grill, plenty of seating and a nice covered area. Storage shed with outdoor games, please put away when finished. Same with the kayaks. We hope you enjoy the area! - 7 mins away from McGregor

One issue

Overall would recommend but it had a pond in the listing as an amenity. It would have been great except the pond was pretty much drained

Perfect for a relaxing, quiet weekend

We loved our stay. The cabin had everything we needed, plus some. Our kids loved the board games, the basketball hoop and sandbox. Quiet location. The few trains that went by didn’t bother us at all, our 4 year old actually loved watching them go by.

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024
