We loved our stay in this beautifully restored World War II train car in Maryville. The garden farm setting was so peaceful and beautiful, and the whole place felt really special. Our hosts were great, and our 3-year-old had the best time exploring. Such a fun and unique getaway!
The caboose was very clean and well equipped for our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet serenity of the farm. The uniqueness of your caboose was very helpful as begin thinking how we can renovate ours.
If you are even remotely thinking of staying at this property, DO IT! We were intrigued by the idea of staying in an old railway car, but the experience far exceeded our expectations. The grounds around the rail-car were spectacular. Gardens, flowers, fish-pond, and an exceptional fire-pit. We were in town for a show at a local music/food venue called The Shed, but were also able to fit in a few hikes at nearby Cades Cove. An all round spectacular weekend. The hosts were communcative when needed, but other-wise let us enjoy our stay in complete privacy. A 5 Star experience in every way.
