Goldie The Caboose

1 site · Lodging2 acres · Nevis, MN

Goldie is an original early 1900's wooden caboose that ran on the DMIR railroad. She was re-designed in 1912 to be safer on the railroad (and her length extended so she wouldn't fall over). She ran the tracks of the Iron Range until retirement in 1968. We've re-used as much of the original wood as possible, and repurposed many things into other things so that we could keep the history alive. My husband is the carpenter that brought her to life and I'm the one that gave her some paint and design. Now, she's ready for people again, and to keep telling her story to others. Please...be our guest...and let Goldie be your host. Goldie has: ~ Hot and cold running water ~ A shower (this will run from cool to nice and warm due to an on demand system) ~A/C and heat ~Hot water kettle for coffee, tea and cocoa (or oatmeal, etc) ~Simple paper dishes and plastic utensils ~Microwave ~Mini fridge ~One queen sized memory foam bed ~Towels for the shower ~Flush Toilet ~Fire ring, picnic table and lake access (kayaks available to use for free) ~Wifi access ** There is no cable TV, but we have a DVD player and some movies to choose from. Also there are some games to play. We do have pets and they do run around the yard freely. There are two dogs that love to romp and say hi (a Golden Retriever and a Griffon mix) and a cat that does the same. They are super friendly, but they will come to visit you at the lake. I also raise bees and they are inside an electric fence (for the bears) away from the caboose. Our lake is an "environmental lake" so while we keep a small beach area that you are welcome to use, it is not free of lily pads or weeds. It's simple, but fully swimm-able (the Golden keeps the first 8 feet of water weed free with her swimming!) and it works just fine. You are welcome to use the dock and chairs we keep there for breezy evenings or to take a dip to cool off. Kayaks are available for use.
