Watermill Station was the third North station on the Labrador world of Survival 5 on the Dogcraft Server.

The station was located on a small hill in a swamp biome which bordered a very large snowy biome. This station was the final north station on Labrador.

The station was built by XPModder at the very beginning of August and it, as well as the line connecting it to Olton Hall, were completed only a few days before the opening of the North-West Quadrant of the ring line was scheduled to happen. As the station was now also finished and connected to the rest of the network, it was decided to also be opened in the same opening together with part of the ring line.

Due to being built in a swamp biome, the station was designed to be built on wooden posts. Due to this, the station could not contain the usual cart-dispenser system, as that would have had to been built under the floor. Therefore, XPModder came up with a completely different minecart system, which was located above the main floor in the attic area of the station.

Further, the relatively small size of the main station building and its many windows did not leave room to facilitate a Nether Portal. To still allow the station to be connected to the NTN, a Nether Portal was constructed outside the station in a way that made it look as if the portal covered the area between two larger oak trees and was being held up by these trees.

In front of the station on the north side, a small rock formation was located which contained a spring. The water from this spring flowed under the station and through the waterwheel, which gave the station its name, over the edge of the hill and down into a lake in the swamp.

During the opening, many people gathered on the waterwheel and some even managed to get slightly trapped inside it.

This was also when and where the Sniffer Rens first gathered and started spreading throughout the server.
