About this property

Eagle Ranch Railway Retreat

All aboard! Stay in our historic red caboose turned tiny home at Eagle Ranch. Nestled by lakes and farmland, it’s the perfect spot for unplugging from city life and enjoy some fishing, kayaking, swimming, roasting smores on the fire, and stargazing in the hot tub. Inside you can relax by reading in the library, playing games, or streaming tv. The caboose has a pull-out queen sofa bed that fits the cozy layout.
It's truly a unique stay where nature, history, and adventure meet!

The space
Our caboose is located in beautiful Spencer, Indiana on a large family-owned ranch. It’s a working Ranch so you may spot some workers nearby or areas still under construction. We try to give you your space during your stay though.

Ask about booking a farm tour to see our wide variety of animals- we don't have just your typical farm animals either!

We are located about 15 miles from Bloomington for college events and about 10 miles from McCormick’s Creek State Park. We are under an hour from both Cataract Falls and Brown County State Park.

Guest access
Our guests have access to the caboose, the lake and dock, sand beach access, year-round hot tub, kayaks, grill, and fire pit.

Unless accompanied by a ranch member, please do not touch or feed any animals on property. Do not unlock or open any gates.

Other things to note
*Please do not touch or feed any of the animals on the property for safety purposes.
*Stay parked on gravel roads only.
*No illegal activity or parties.
*We are not responsible for any injury or damage to your property or yourself.
*It is only 2 people max allowed to stay at caboose, and no visitors due to liability.
* If under 18, please ask permission first. This area is not child friendly yet due to high spaces and steep stairs.
