This property was amazing and my love of a red caboose a dream come true stay! It gave me such joy and relaxation before I start another treatment for my metastatic breast cancer and AML. We were also celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary. Thank you so much Brooke!!! The location was excellent for beautiful scenic drives and lots of yummy food choices. Be sure to check out Winchester Farms and the trolley tour of downtown Asheville. The rental is perfect for solo and couples traveling. Please note that it is stated to have an outdoor grill and microwave but no oven/stove. Highly recommend!!!

Prepare to be amazed by this wonderful property. The accommodations were incredible and everything you can ask for. The extra touches like the bathrobes, the soaps and lotions, the refreshments, the firewood and fire starters were a wonderful surprise. The sound of the waterfall ties it all together and you feel more like you are at a spa than just a typical vrbo. We had such a great time and cannot say enough wonderful things to describe this perfect weekend getaway. We would love to come back one day soon!

Amazing spaces included in this private rental — the kitchenette and bedroom were in the caboose, an outdoors fire pit & seating area with ample wood and then the “station” with a wrap around porch with seating area, big screen tv and nature landscape surrounding you. The “station” also has a luxurious bathroom and shower.area. Extremely clean and host offered complimentary water, local beer, and snacks. So relaxing and great to come back to after exploring area or just to hang out at all day.
Caboose, offers unique comfortable charm.
