Places to stay near Effigy Mounds National Monument

The Railway Lodge 134 Beulah Lane Mcgregor IA

Welcome to our neck of the woods. Right across the road from Spook Cave sits a nice peaceful cabin with spacious outdoor area. Enjoy a nice fire or simply relax underneath the covered porch with a beautiful pond view. We are located near a train track so don’t be alarmed if one goes by. It actually is pretty neat to see in the dark as your sitting by the fire. We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we love it. Secluded but yet close to town. Feel free to ask any questions.
