Oakdale Primitive cabin 1 @Spring Lake Ranch

Looking to unplug and reconnect with nature? This primitive cabin offers a unique and peaceful escape—with just enough comfort to retreat indoors at night.

While the cabin has electricity, it does not have running water or a bathroom inside. But no worries—the nearby shower house, just a short walk away, has clean restrooms and hot showers for your convenience.

Wake up next to a 60-acre private lake and spend your days swimming, kayaking, exploring nearby hiking trails, horseback riding through scenic countryside, or enjoying wine tastings at Edg Clif Winery—just 1.5 miles away!

Set on a working ranch with cattle, goats, and chickens, this stay gives you a true taste of rural life while keeping you close to nature’s beauty.

Perfect for those seeking simplicity, fresh air, and starry nights.

Clean and quiet in beautiful surroundings

My wife, myself and our dog stayed for a weekend and had a really great stay! You can walk to the lake from the cabin, and the overall atmosphere of the place is serene. We'll definitely be back

Cabin Campout

This property was perfect for a quick cabin campout with my 2 grandchildren. The cabin and ranch were exactly as described. The heated cabin made the March trip possible. The kids loved the bunk beds and the opportunity to make camp fires. Given the cold snap, it was helpful that there was a picnic table inside as well as outside. The lake was beautiful and we look forward to coming back some time in warmer weather, but it was fun to have the place mainly to ourselves. The location was convenient to Elephant Rocks, which made for a perfect day trip from the property.

Weekend trip

We enjoyed our stay but the property seems a little forgotten. We stayed in the primitive cabins and they are exactly that. Our mattresses had large holes and stains. The locks didn't always work or not at all (our friends cabin the screen door and lock were broken) Our favorite part of the trip was canoeing on the lake. Overall it was a nice weekend trip.

No running water or facilities

The property was very nice. Bed was hard and they do not supply any sheets, pillows or blankets. This is a single room with a very small fridge and microwave only. I also sent several messages to the owner and got no response. We made the best of it. The bathroom shown in the pics are of the shower house which is mediocre at best. . It desperately needs a good cleaning.

They suck

This cabin was a rip off so when we first got there we checked in and went to our cabin and it was very small there was no bathroom so when we went back down to the front to get our money they told us we couldn’t get it back. That they could’ve gave it to someone else and we told them that nobody is going to book there so basically they screwed us out of our money I would not advise y’all book there…..

Private lake

Nice, clean quiet experience. The private lake is great. I can see it's set up for events near the water which I'm sure would be great also.

Beautiful area!

The cabin was perfect for my wife and I! We were visiting the Mark Twain area and were close to the Elephant Rocks and the Siilver Mines. We were able to take advantage of the lake and catch a few fish along with some sunshine! I would recommend some safety bars in the bathroom stalls and shower area!

Tent camping inside

We are tent campers and getting too old to weather outdoors in 30 degree winter. What a great alternative this was. A furnace and just enough dry space for the two of us and the dog. Beautiful icy trees. A brisk walk to the bath house. And back into the warm/dry. Much fun for a wintry weekend.
