About this property

Authentic Log cabin with something for everyone!

An authentic log cabin on 7 acres with a small lake in the front yard. Sleeps 10 in beds (10 maximum capacity). More wildlife than imaginable. Every time of day brings out different animals and birds. Built for family gatherings and fun. Enjoy swimming in the lake. Enjoy feeding the fish (we do not allow fishing) as all fish have been hand raised and are pet like. We do provide fish food for your enjoyment (and theirs:). Enjoy local historical places, numerous wineries and breweries all within 10 miles. Ride the Katy Trail, and do some local shopping. Be sure to visit historical downtown Washington, which is one of the top ten historical districts in the US. Daniel Boone home and monument are close and worth visiting. Busch's wildlife conservation area has over 50 stocked lakes for fishing and other outdoor fun. All of these attractions are within 10 minutes of the cabin.

The cabin was beautiful and nice place to unplug from the rest of the world. Only suggestion would be to have a softer bed in the main bedroom and a step stool in the second bedroom for short people to climb into the high bed. Overall, we truly enjoyed all the nature and spending quality time together playing games and good old fashion conversations.

Rustic Get Away

This property takes you back to a time when life was simpler. Being able to feed the catfish and seeing the wildlife was so relaxing. There is plenty of room to gather, and the place accommodated our 8 adults wonderfully. Rustic and relaxing!

Loved it!

Had a great time, the place was so fun. Had an issue getting in on time because of the cleaners. Considering they were there 40 minutes on top of the 5 hours they are allotted to clean between guests, I do wish the place was more clean. Other than that it was a beautiful location secluded and about an hour out from St. Louis. Would recommend and would stay again!

Cabin was clean, but very dark inside. It could really use better lighting. Was difficult to sit around the table at night and play cards. Also a lot of things were just a little “off” like the fridge door handle is missing, burnt light bulbs, blinds don’t work, etc. But our main issue was the A/C — it did not work for a July in Missouri. The owners were very responsive and did what they could, but basically said it was doing all it could. So we had some uncomfortable times in the cabin. Especially the upstairs loft — it was like an oven.

Wonderful time!

It was a very accommodating cabin that made it an easy stay and the kitchen allowed us to easily cook. Loved the privacy and would like to return when weather was warmer to take more advantage of the outside amenities.

Girls Trip

We enjoyed the cabin for our girls get away. The feeding of the fish was a hit and we got to see baby geese be born! The turtles are awesome too! Overall the place met our needs. Did not expect all the taxidermy animals. We really enjoyed the local area. They had lots of fun events we found. The walking trails were nice! Thank you for opening your place for us to spend our time together.

Perfect log cabin on the pond

Great stay in a beautiful log cabin. Two wonderful porches to relax, eat and enjoy the view. Very spacious and clean. Our furry friends felt right at home too. The country setting is perfect for privacy and relaxation. Would stay again

About the host

Hosted by Tami Morton

Host profile image
Johnny and Tami Morton purchased this little paradise in 2010 to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Both involved in multiple business ventures, it was a gift to come home in the evening and unwind in this beautiful serene setting. It was like being miles from nowhere yet close to everything. We love the cabin so much we decided to share it with others. We live very close and take much pride in ownership. We hope you love it and care for it the same as we do.

Why they chose this property

Rebecca Lane is in the middle of nowhere, but actually close to everything. St. Louis is 45 minutes, Washington is 10 minutes, and downtown Marthasville which has practically everything you would need in 3 minutes. Why not this property????

What makes this property unique

Only log cabin of its kind in this area. Built from 10" logs. Large and spacious, lake front, woods to wander in, firepit to have open fires for roasting hotdogs, smores and more, berries to pick, fish to feed, deer, fox, raccoons, herons, skunks, turtles, muskrats, hummingbirds and wild birds too numerous to name. A real outdoor paradise for nature lovers.
IMPORTANT TO NOTE: THE FIREPLACE CANNOT BE USED.
IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE #2: The cabin has a lot of taxidermy animals. WE DID NOT KILL ANY OF THESE. They were victims of traffic accidents, purchased at auctions, or donated to us by conservationists. We thought this would be a great way for adults and children alike to see wildlife up close without ever feeling the need to harm a live animal. They are also unable to grow new hair so we ask that you do not handle or pet. If taxidermy animals bother you, the cabin is probably not a good fit. Thank you.
IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE #3. The cabin is on 7 wooded acres and there are bugs, bats, snakes, mice and more depending on the time of year. Please expect to encounter some or all of these forms of life. If you keep all food in cabinets or fridge, it will help minimize pesky situations.
