Yellow Lab - Sleeps up to Three Adults

Summary:
Great for three people looking for a great price. Still has a full kitchen with all that is needed for cooking your own meals. Great view of our pond. This is a DOG ONLY FRIENDLY cabin.

The Space:
Yellow Lab has a full size bed in the bedroom and a twin size sofa sleeper in the living room. The bathroom has a shower.

Guest Access:
There is an office at the cabins, but it is used for cleaning crew only, so you will not be checking in at the office. A few days prior to checking in, a text message will be sent to the cell phone(s) listed on the reservation, giving you the 4 digit key code you will use to access your cabin. When you arrive, go straight to your cabin (they’re labeled by name), and use your key code to get in.

Getting Around:
Moravia, IA, United States
If you enjoy the outdoors, you will love Rathbun Lake. With more than 11,000 acres, eight parks, two marinas, and several restaurants and cultural activities nearby, the Rathbun Lake area is a vacation destination for everyone.
As the second largest lake in Iowa, Rathbun is nestled among forested lands, prairies and wetlands preserved to ensure the natural environment. Bald eagles, white-tailed deer, songbirds and other wildlife are prevalent in the area. Rathbun is a flood protection lake managed by the Army Corps of Engineers.
Recreation facilities include boat ramps, campgrounds, picnic areas and playgrounds. The Corps has a Visitors Center that provides information about Rathbun Lake’s natural resources.
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) manages both Honey Creek Resort and the original 850-acre Honey Creek State Park. In the future, the DNR plans to link the two parks, which are separated by a cove, with a pedestrian bridge. Honey Creek State Park offers camping, camping cabins, heated shower facility, trails and a boat ramp.
Another DNR facility in the area is the Rathbun Fish Hatchery. The hatchery raises channel catfish, walleye, saugeye and largemouth bass, which are then stocked in other Iowa lakes. Visitors are welcome year-round, including large-group tours with an appointment.
Culture and Entertainment
Rathbun Lake is the centerpiece of Appanoose and Monroe counties, offering many restaurants, entertainment and cultural/historical activities nearby.
A few highlights include:
- Honey Creek Resort / Water Park & Golf Course
- Honey Creek State Park
- Nearby historic shops and downtown districts in Centerville, Albia and Bloomfield
-Mormon Trail

Foxtail Cabin
The cabin was spotless and very well stocked with everything promised on the website. The location offers spectacular views of a pond and a nice trail for walking. The cabin was nice and warm for our February stay and it was peacefully quiet and so relaxing. The only thing that was sightly disappointing is how fast the hot water runs out. Plan on less than a ten minute shower or turn it off and on during the whole shower process. We will definitely be staying again.

Great long weekend!
We stayed Friday to Sunday for a little get away from the day to day. We were very impressed with the cabin. We had everything we needed and were close to all the Lake Rathbun activities we wanted to do. I think I could live there ☺️, but we have to go back to work Monday 😭. We would most definitely stay again!

Nice weekend get away
The place was nice and quiet. The cabin was good. My only complaint was the ac system was noisy and shook the whole cabin when running. We had to turn it down low to get it to cool properly. The bedroom was warmer then we like. But over all, it was very relaxing. We caught many fish in the pond. Our dogs seemed happy to run around. This was our second time visiting. More than likely will return.
