Step aboard The Caboose Roost in Fredericktown Missouri — a truly unique train caboose stay designed for families, couples, and outdoor explorers.
Wake up in a real railcar filled with nostalgic charm, modern comfort, and a cozy loft that turns bedtime into an adventure.
Nestled in the heart of the Mark Twain National Forest and just minutes from Elephant Rocks State Park, Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park, and Millstream Gardens — home of the Missouri Whitewater Championships — this getaway offers equal parts romance, relaxation, and kid-approved outdoor fun.
Spend your days hiking, kayaking, fishing, and exploring nearby state parks, then unwind with peaceful evenings around the firepit and stargazing under the wide country sky.
With easy access just ½ mile from Highway 67 and only 1 hour and 24 minutes from St. Louis, the caboose feels tucked away in nature while still being convenient for weekend getaways and family road trips.
Not just a place to stay — it’s a destination all its own
