Papa's Cabin - 40 acres & 5 acre lake!

Welcome to Papa's Cabin—a rustic country retreat where you can slow down, unplug, and enjoy 40 private acres all to yourself.

This special property was our late father's home for more than 20 years. It was where our family gathered to fish, BBQ, celebrate holidays, and make memories we'll cherish forever. When we inherited the property, we knew we wanted to preserve those memories by sharing this peaceful place with others.

Surrounded by the beauty of Missouri's Amish Country, Papa's Cabin is the perfect place to watch wildlife, cast a line in the private lake, gather around the fire pit, or simply relax with a cup of coffee while taking in the sunrise from the porch. At night, enjoy incredible sunsets followed by some of the best stargazing you'll find.

Inside, you'll find a clean, comfortable, and spacious cabin with rustic charm and thoughtful updates throughout. Recent improvements include fresh paint, updated lighting, refurbished furnishings, and new hot water heaters, with additional renovations continuing as we preserve the character of the home.

The cabin comfortably accommodates families and groups with:

Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms
A queen master suite with a private bath and walk-in closet
A second bedroom with a queen bed plus a twin-over-full bunk bed
Two cozy living areas with comfortable seating and Fire TVs
A reading nook, electric fireplace, games, and a dining table that seats six
Laundry facilities and the essentials needed for a comfortable stay

Located just 3.8 miles from Middletown, you'll enjoy peaceful seclusion while still being close to local conveniences. Explore nearby Amish homesteads, browse handmade furniture and baked goods using our guest guidebook, spend a day shopping in Bowling Green, or visit the wineries of Hermann just 40 minutes away.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, fishing trip, girls' weekend, or simply looking for a quiet escape, we hope you'll experience the same peace, laughter, and connection that have made Papa's Cabin so special to our family.

Papa's Cabin is an older farmhouse that we're lovingly restoring one project at a time. We appreciate your understanding as we continue preserving and improving this special place.
