Perfect Christmas Destination
We had a wonderful stay over Christmas. Lights were strung up and the path to the hottub cleared of snow. Totally idyllic. The futon is very firm, but otherwise our stay was perfect.

Peaceful Getaway
I booked this as a surprise getaway for my Husbands birthday. Don't be fooled at the size of this caboose, my husband is 6"4' 220lbs and fit! we stayed two wonderful evenings. Watched some football, played some board games, had a fire and enjoyed the outdoor hot tub. We would come back again.

Relaxing Stay
My wife and I came up for a weekend getaway. If you are looking for a relaxing stay away from the hustle and bustle of life. You will not regret staying in the caboose. The property is in a secluded location but close to local towns for anything you need. John was a great host and the caboose has everything you will need. Very clean and the bonus on a hot tub. We would recommend staying here to anyone and will definitely be back!

Beautiful property
We had a great stay. The caboose is everything in the listing and more! The host thought of everything and had wine in the fridge for us upon arrival as well as some bottled water. Plenty of tea and coffee choices. Firewood for a fire and the hot tub was very nice. Would definitely recommend.
