3-star cabin retreat on a wildlife ranch in French Lick
Amenities
Wilstem Cabins offers a seasonal outdoor swimming pool with a fence and sun loungers for guest use. The property has a picnic area and free on-site parking, including accessible parking spaces. Guests can arrange horse riding and hiking activities directly through the ranch.
Rooms
Each cabin includes a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, microwave, toaster, refrigerator, stovetop, and coffee machine. A fireplace and a seating area with a sofa are standard in every unit. Bedrooms offer air conditioning, a private entrance, and a private bathroom with a bath or shower.
Location
The cabins are situated 11 km from French Lick Casino, West Baden Museum, Valley Links Golf Course, and French Lick Antique Gallery. Louisville International Airport is 90 km away. The property sits within the Wilstem Wildlife Park, giving guests direct access to the drive-thru safari and animal encounters.
Family-Friendly Activities
Children can participate in the drive-thru safari where animals approach vehicles for feeding. The property offers wagon tours and private elephant encounters (with Asian elephants Cindy and Vicki) exclusively for cabin guests. A dinosaur exhibit with animatronic creatures is included in the safari admission.
On-Site Entertainment
The ranch includes a gift shop and a cafe serving lunch, snacks, and drinks. Guests can book encounters with giraffes, kangaroos, otters, and sloths for an additional fee. The walk-through barn features monkeys, reptiles, tortoises, and a designated kangaroo garden.
Highlights
Wildlife Access: Drive-thru safari, wagon tour, and private elephant encounters
Cabins: Private entrance, fireplace, full kitchen in each unit
Activities: Horse riding, hiking, and seasonal outdoor pool
Location: 11 km from French Lick attractions and 90 km from Louisville Airport
Animal Encounters: Giraffe feeding, kangaroo garden, otter and sloth meet-and-greets
“The animal encounters here are genuinely engaging, from the wagon safari where wildlife approaches with remarkable ease to the drive-through areas and even a dinosaur experience that appeals across generations. Upstairs in the cabin, the king bed and jetted tub provided a comfortable retreat after exploring, with staff readily arranging late check-in when needed, a thoughtful touch.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Usindiana
