About the host

Hosted by John Taylor

Host profile image
I grew up coming to Fayetteville and fell in love with the area. The views, the adventure, the adrenaline are second to none. I also grew up playing with Lionel trains and walking down to the train tracks and putting pennies on the rails. That combination led to a pair of Cabooses (or are the cabeese?) along Gatewood Road.

Why they chose this property

In 2013 we built a cabin across the road, and in 2017 we had the opportunity to buy the property across the street. We spent the next five years trying to think of something different for our guest. We stumbled across a pair of old railroad cabooses and renovated them.
