Geocache Description:

Located .8 of a mile off of I-74 in "Cold Spring Cemetery". Flat, well maintained grounds that are nicely kept. Locating the cache will give you a quick walk to stretch your legs during your travels. Flat grassy area and location allow this a cache to be suitable for most cachers.

This is a BUG HOTEL for all the travel bugs and coins traveling along Interstate 74. Parking spaces are available.

We are found in a cozy spot in Cold Spring Cemetery that will allow you to stretch your legs a bit and rest from your travels.

While searching for the Bug Hotel, look around at some of the headstones. This cemetery was established in 1844, and is full of history. See if you can spot the "DEATH" headstone. (I think I would have changed my last name!)

This is a Travel Bug Exchange. Feel free to:
1. Exchange Travel Bugs and/or Geocoins
2. Take one with or without an exchange
3. PLEASE do NOT take the last bug/coin without an exchange! We always desire to have an occupant!
4. Please do not rob this cache! (Taking more than one travel bug without an exchange.) This takes away from the other geocachers.

This cache is a camo taped plastic waterproof container 6" x 4.5" x 3" with a log book and may contain a few trade items.

Please replace camouflage items and container as you found them. Otherwise it may be easily discovered by mugglers.

While placing the box (during summer months) I noticed some small sprouts of poison ivy around the trees. It wasn't a problem for us, but I wanted to make sure you were aware it was spotted.
