Staying in a caboose has always been something we've wanted to do. It was a very unique and memorable stay! Comfortable, fun with lots of train memorabilia throughout. Nice patio and close to Main Street in historic Virginia City.

Had a wonderful time staying here with my grandson the night before taking a ride on the V&T Railroad. The caboose sits on the hill right above the train station, so you can just walk right down to the trains. It also has a wonderful eastern view for sun/moonrise. We loved climbing up top to the comfy seats in the cupola for evening reading. It IS a vintage railway car, so of course there are some “quirks” but they are part of the charm and fun of the unique lodging experience. We were a 74 year old and a 12 year old and both had a great time here!

Unique and Special Stay
The details made the stay truly special. We utilized the Bluetooth old-fashioned looking speaker to listen to a book on tape while we sipped from gorgeous cut glass cups. The space is private, cozy, and just fun.

This was my first time staying in "Ruby" but it definitely won't be my last. First off the communication from the host was amazing she was so fast at getting back to me that it was almost like we were texting each other in real time. The caboose itself is absolutely amazing, the decor is awesome and everything you need is inside. I showed my friends who were staying down the street and they said that they were going to stay there next time they're in Virginia City. I can't wait to come back. Five stars for sure!

Cute Caboose
I hadn’t been to Virginia City in 40 years, so we decided to take a little get away. I found this place and fell in love with it! When we checked in it didn’t disappoint 😊 It is so unique and decorated for the time period. Loved the books about the history of the city and the people are very friendly in town. Check-in was easy and everything that was listed was accurate! I would definitely recommend and would rent again!

Great place to get away
My husband & I stayed a night in Virginia City to check out the old gold mining town. The Ruby Caboose was the perfect lodging. The sheets were super soft & all the details inside the caboose were fun to view & added tons of charm. The host, Heidi was responsive, friendly & accommodating.

The Best Little GetAway!!
My husband and I were in town for a friends wedding and I was so lucky to have found this listing!
The owner was so pleasant and welcoming!
As we approached the caboose were were both so excited to see how ever this could be converted to a little studio but oh my!! It was literally perfect!! The host had coffee and tea and such thoughtful touches.
I would definitely recommend staying here if your visiting VC

A little tough for older people.
While the 'Caboose' is very cool, clean, and fun, it requires you to carry everything up about 12 steps from your car to the level of the tracks. Then another moderate incline to the Caboose, then a couple more steps. I inquired beforehand about any steps, and was told there were only a couple of steps! I was told that if we required help with the bags, to let her know. When I did, there was no response.

Virginia City Caboose
This was an awesome visit ! The caboose was fantastic and even better than the pictures. Our weather was on the chilly side but we were marvelously cosy in the caboose. The views were magnificent! Virginia City strolling was great. Grab coffee at the Roasting House - it was excellent. There is no stove or microwave; we brought a hot plate just to warm up soup and that worked great.

Staying in Ruby
Very fun staying in the old caboose. We loved the deck under the gazebo. The pictures and other artifacts lend a very nice railroad type feel. The cupila is so much fun.
We really liked the map of the Virginia City mines, so the caboose had a great feel of the history of the area, too.
Two small suggestions for the kitchen. 1) A small scrubby pad and 2) a small cutting board would be helpful. But, I quibble.
Overall this was a wonderful visit!

A DREAM COME TRUE !!!
WOW !! We can't possibly convey how utterly delighted we were with every aspect of our stay at Ruby the Red Caboose. Our host, Heidi, did the virtually impossible by making our visit absolutely cozy, comfortable and flawless despite a historic series of storms that virtually paralyzed a good portion of the Sierras in both California and Nevada with tons of snow. We can't thank you enough, Heidi, for the perfection we enjoyed despite the immense challenges you and your entire town experienced.
Ruby is a treasure we heartily recommend to everyone. She's beautiful, surprisingly roomy... even her bathing facilities are comfortable for a man! She has 2 lovely heating stoves that kept us toasty warm and comfy as can be. We sipped hot vanilla tea upstairs in the cupola (the eggplant hued suede upholstered seats are gorgeous) and watched gigantic snowflakes race by in countless directions. Those are moments we will always treasure, and we thank you, Heidi, for being such a terrific and generous host, and giving us these memories as a gift.
It would be very comfy in Ruby in the summer as well... we noticed there is excellent cross-ventilation with adjustable screened windows, and even air conditioning. The refrigerator, sink and Keurig coffeemaker are handy and the outdoor patio must be heavenly in the summer. Another good reason for us to return !!
We hope everyone will visit Ruby, experience her 100 mile view (STUNNING !!!), feel her cozy comfort and her history and have the same unforgettable experience we enjoyed !!
Thank you, Heidi, for your excellence as a host... we will remember you. :)
Warmest Regards... Cat and Matt
