The host was super responsive. He provided us with firewood throughout our stay. The cabiose was perfect for me, my husband, and son. We enjoyed cooking outnon the grill and watching the sunset and sitting bybthe fire pit. The place was clean and as advertised. Would definitely stay again!!!

What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! This caboose has been impeccably retrofitted for a great stay. The outdoor space is particularly nice, as well. We had clear weather - so the location with its wide open space with virtually no ambient lighting makes it a fabulous place to enjoy looking up at the heavens.
