What a Magickal Experience!

We loved it all. It was a stop on our daughters 3rd birthday road-trip through Colorado. She loves trains and she couldn’t have been anymore elated to have “her train house”. It was so cozy and comfortable. Thank you for helping bring some of our baby’s birthday dreams come true.

Perfect Staycation

We wanted to get out of Denver for a minute and loved the idea of a caboose. Had the best night, not only at the room, but the town too. Had dinner at the CO wine bar and walked back to the house. Soaked in the jacuzzi under the stars. The shower and tub are really big and the bed super comfy. Loved our time there.

Surprise Christmas Present

My name is Randi and my husband, Brian, is a huge train nerd. For his Christmas present, I secretly booked him a stay at the caboose and he was absolutely thrilled! The caboose is adorable and we spent some time in the hot tub outside looking up at the stars in the evening. We loved our stay and plan to come back. Communication was great with the owners and now Brian wants a caboose of his own, lol

Zero communication from host. Found the place and just walked? No instructions at all. Decor was great and had everything we needed. Bed slept really good. No privacy and felt like we were camping in someone's yard while on the deck. stay outside kon

Nice caboose, misleading pictures

The caboose was a really cool place to stay! However the description of the property and the pictures are misleading. The caboose is parked about 50 ft from the owners home, just across the driveway. The hot tub is in view of the owners back deck as well, so not a lot of privacy there. There is also another site they rent right next to the caboose for RV/campers, so not a lot of privacy overall. The property is located in a busy fork in the road, so traffic noise was always present. The creek is there, but it is small, very overgrown and hard to access. The caboose was very clean and nice to stay in, but overall I thought the price was far too high for the reality of the location.
