12. Goldie The Caboose - Nevis MN

1 site · Lodging · Nevis, MN

Goldie is closed for the season - she will reopen again in the spring! 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. It's been fully renovated with a few modern conveniences. 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 a max occupancy of 2 people due to space constraints. She also offers: ~ 1 very generous bundle of firewood included with stay ~ Hot and cold running water ~ A shower ~A/C and heat ~Hot water kettle for coffee, tea and cocoa (or oatmeal, etc) ~Paper dishes, plastic utensils and ceramic mugs ~Microwave ~Mini fridge ~One queen sized memory foam bed ~ Bath Towels, hand towel and wash towels ~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 female Golden Retriever and a female Griffon mix) and a female cat that does the same. They are super friendly, but they will come to visit you at the lake. 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 Retriever keeps the first 8 feet of water weed free with her swimming!). You are welcome to use the dock and chairs we keep there for breezy evenings or to take a dip to cool off. We are only 2ish miles from town with gas, food, ice cream and a donut shop. There is a paved rail trail just down our street that runs both directions for many miles. Bikes are welcome! (please leave ATVs at home).

3 nights at Goldie The Caboose - Nevis MN

Amy’s place was beautiful and peaceful. The caboose sits on a quiet, wooded part of the property and feels totally private — you can’t even see her house from it. There’s a private trail that leads down to the lake, passing a picnic table and a fire pit with a built-in grill. It’s a perfect spot to relax, cook out, or just sit and enjoy the view. The whole setup has a cozy, tucked-away vibe that makes it easy to unwind and enjoy nature.

The caboose was a unique experience to actually stay in a renovated railroad caboose with ties to the area. It was very relaxing setting and have campfire coffee and close access to the bike trails. The dogs were always happy to say hello and the yoga platform was a perfect place to watch the clear night sky.

Weekend Trip to Whispering Winds Retreat

Whispering Winds was the weekend away we didn't know we needed. The dog park was incredible for our tripod who we have difficulty taking to actual dog parks!! She loved the resident and non resident animals! The lands are beautifully curated and designed with the human and dog in mind. We loved the paths, the community kitchen is such a great bonus! We can't wait to come back!

Wonderful shaded site on your own private pond. Please realize that the pond changes with the seasons. Sometimes it’s frozen. Sometimes it’s green if it’s late summer and it’s been a dry year sometimes it’s big and mostly water. That’s part of the beauty of nature is that it’s always changing.

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa

We loved staying at this tiny retreat! It was so peaceful, cozy, and private. Super easy to relax and feel in-tune with the woodland, while still having all sorts of creature comforts. And even a nice spread for breakfast waiting in the fridge!

Weekend Trip to The Forest Container

Staying at what I would call an art installation during a heat wave made our weekend at Cayuna a trip to never be forgotten! Finding solace in an AC shelter was an amazing experience in 90° weather. I will definitely come here again!

We loved the container cabin! We have a family of 4 it was tight but we made it work. First time in a bathroom like that didn't expect the shower to be hot but it definitely was! Very peaceful yet close enough to bike to everything.

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa

The Office was a great space for our weekend camping trip! We loved how easy it was to get to, and how well situated everything was on the property. We had our own private bathroom and fire pit. Firewood was provided and easy to get from the wood pile for our fires. Debbie was super responsive and kind She was open to answering any questions we had. She even left us with some breakfast items (fresh bread, yogurt, boiled eggs, cream for our coffee) which was an unexpected but nice touch. We loved how close the property was to Banning State Park and Jay Cooke State park. The Office was also heated which made camping on a 38 degree night a breeze! (Camping is a loose term as we had all the convenience of a bathroom, gas stove, refrigerator and pump sink. Though we definitely cooked out over the fire for a few meals-making it somewhere between camping and clamping. Great for us! The property also had a fitness cabin with a sauna. We did not use this as our adventures had us away from camp most of the weekend, but it was definitely a nice touch and I think in a future trip would be awesome to use!

3 nights at Cloverdale Cabins

We loved the cute little cottage that we stayed in. We also really enjoyed the rec room with the hot tub and games. Super short drive into town if you needed something and even shorter drive to the casino.

We loved staying at the Wild West cabin! The host was super responsive and helpful. It was stocked with everything we forgot to bring, from coffee to olive oil. We drove up to banning state park for a beautiful hike.

Weekend Trip to Frickson Family Farms, LLC.

We loved our stay at Frickson Farm, the cabin was perfect! We loved stocking up on meat and goods from the farm store. It’s near the highway but very quite and peaceful and the stars were beautiful.

Weekend Trip to Frickson Family Farms, LLC.

We absolutely loved the setup of the tiny home! Wood stove kept us warm and cozy while the snow fell outside. Awesome patio area so we cooked all of our food over the fire pit which included a handy movable grate. Having firewood included was so nice. The 3 miles of hiking were enjoyed greatly by us and our dog!

My husband and I enjoyed our time at the Wooded Retreat so much. It was wonderful to retreat to the peace and serenity of this cozy little cabin. Our favorite part was sitting by the warmth of the campfire, listening to the birds singing and watching the leaves fall. So thankful we found this little gem.
