Unique, surprisingly roomy place and we enjoyed it very much. The outdoor patio in the evening was especially pleasant. Kuddos for bringing the caboose to new life; the renovation was done with perfection.

The 1948 Caboose was something from a fantasy of the past, especially with the train tracks near by. I love the Caboose and all its interior design.... I wanted to buy it.Best and most unique place I think I've ever stayed.

The Caboose was absolutely adorable, functional, clean, and a fun experience.Amenities are luxurious though small, such a high quality renovation of the inside of a car with so much character. Especially appreciate the high water pressure in the shower and drinkable tap water, all while steps away from the desert. Noise from the train was noticeable but only added to the experience.Host was communicative and friendly.

Everything was perfect and exactly how they described on the listing. They’re not joking about the goat head stickers! Best to wear house shoes inside!

I appreciate intention and details and it is so clear that the owners brought that to the design and renovation of the caboose. The host was extremely easy to communicate with and responsive. The space had everything I needed and it was so wonderful to look out each morning across the field at the topography. Just enough outside of town for breathing room but close enough that everything is accessible. Thank you for a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay in the caboose. Loved the weather. I was able to actually enjoy the cowboy bathtub experience. Didn't like the little sticky things I think you call them goatheads. We just had to check our feet to be sure we didn't bring them in with us so our pup didn't get them in her feet. This is definitely a unique experience. Very cozy
