Historic, Completely Restored 1929 Caboose in Beautiful North Georgia Mountains
NEW VIDEO TOUR ADDED! For best quality, chick on Watch on YouTube. Even though listing details are provided, questions I've been asked. YES, the caboose has a fully functional, tricked out bathroom, in the silo adjacent to it (see photos and reviews). YES, the caboose has Air Conditioning & Heat in caboose and bathroom. YES, there is Hot Water in the bathroom. YES, there's an HD LCD television with Sound Bar, and with full DirectTV line-up of channels, along with Netflix and other streaming services. YES, high-speed (40mbs) WiFi is provided. In other business - No more than 2 adults, TWO NIGHT MINIMUM, no children, no pets, NO smoking, NON-smokers only please, and no discounts ever given. ---- Now the GOOD stuff: Located just one mile from fabulous Lake Burton, our 1929 vintage C&O caboose has undergone a top-to-bottom restoration and upgrade, with shades of the luxury Pullman cars of yesteryear. No detail was ignored to allow for a truly unique getaway experience. (Figure of speech. The caboose does not actually go anywhere) Though located adjacent to our also-historic general store-turned antique store, Black Bear Creek Antiques, you will have lots of privacy and space to call your own; private entrance, dedicated parking, waterfall and mountain spring creek just 20 feet away, and easy access to great restaurants (Five of the Top 10 Chefs in GA have restaurants within 10 miles of here) and shopping in nearby Clayton, and all the natural wonders the area has to offer.

Sorry about the noise, Jill. Sorry it was so annoying. It's typically not such an issue, but holiday weekends are extra busy. I'd open a muffler shop on the property if I thought truckers and bikers would patronize it.

It's like staying in a one room museum, with a fully modern bathroom off your back porch.
Place is very clean and comfortable. Owner is super responsive and very helpful. Could not think of one thing we would have changed. The lookout area in the top part of the caboose was a memorable spot to sit and look out over the beautiful views! We will be staying again!

Super cool -- Very Memorable Stay!
If you are looking for a very unique, and memorable place, this is it! And if you are a train/antique buff--look no further! The caboose is full of very interesting train/locomotive memorabilia, and the silo bathroom is extremely nice; also very unique. Mr. Reaves was very helpful in pointing out close-by waterfalls and short hikes. Only downside is the nearby road noise. You absolutely will not forget your stay here.

I live on this road as well, and often think about opening a muffler shop on the property and giving them away for free! Unfortunately, many folks remove the factory ones so their vehicle is louder! Thankfully, it's nearly dead quiet from about 10PM till dawn each day. You guys be safe, and hope to see you again someday... Jim

Loved the "quirky" caboose
Not your usual hum-drum hotel. Why stay in a dreary room when you can stay in a caboose and bathe in a grain silo up in the mountains!? Pleasant outdoor sitting area.
Close to town with good food and lovely drives. Bonus antiquing on the property. Owner super nice and very helpful. He's always around if you need anything.

Unique and Fun
Everything about our weekend was great. Jim was very helpful and put a lot of thought into every aspect of the caboose. We took advantage of almost every amenity provided. Even though it was almost freezing outside, it was very warm in the caboose, and the restroom came with a heater as well. Our favorite part was the breakfast nook. It takes some dexterity to get up there, but the view was beautiful. This is the perfect place for a couple to comfortably enjoy the mountains of North Georgia.

You can learn a lot of stuff by just walking in to the place and looking at all the unique stuff on the walls, Jim was very knowledgeable of a lot of things as well and it was awesome Howell they turned a silo into the bathroom.

Great Unique Opportunity
What a great place to stay with a truly unique vibe. Jim is an awesome host. The place is incredibly clean and everything you need is available. The bed is not the most comfortable and privacy from the neighbors is a bit lacking. Road noise dies down considerably at night. Persons with difficulty navigating stairs might struggle a bit - it is a rail car after all. But overall, this place is convenient to many attractions and is a unique find. I definitely recommend for one or two people!

Read your comments, Sal. Thanks for the "mostly good" review. Worth mentioning that the neighbors are two elderly reclusive people that are hundreds of feet away, and they are generally asleep by 9:00PM. The bed was designed to be multi-functional and for small-space applications, which the caboose certainly qualifies. Did the best I could on that. Guess it comes down to no place can be perfect, no matter how hard one tries. Thanks for the visit. I liked the "unique vibe" comment! Hope Michele's knee is much better. I'm sure the brace she wore made the steps more of a challenge. Great meeting you both!
Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Jim Reaves
Owner/Operator at Black Bear Creek Antiques next door since 2003. Worked in broadcast television for 35 years prior to this chapter of my life.
O que faz essa propriedade ser única?
Unique in that this is a one-of-a-kind center cupola caboose from 1929. Not another exactly like it anywhere else, and the only caboose in Rabun County. Very cool!
