## About this property

### Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

### Bear Cub - Sleeps up to Four

Summary:  
Bear Cub cabin is spacious and sleeps 4 by itself, or it can be rented with the Big Bear which gives you the capacity of 12. In either case, Bear Cub has a separate front porch for your privacy. The large deck area can be enjoyed by separate parties from the two different cabins, or together for a large group gathering.  
  
The Space:  
Bear Cub features a queen size bed in the bedroom and full size sofa bed in the living room. The bathroom has a shower.  
  
Guest Access:  
There is an office at the cabins, but it is used for the cleaning crew only, so you will not be checking in at the office. A day 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, camp grounds, 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
