Caboose adventure

Very nice well appointed and secluded get-away. Cozy cast iron stove took the spring chill off. It is well located for my adventure visiting a number of the state parks in SW Wisconsin.

Bragging Rights

We were thrilled to be staying in an actual railway car that was turned into a comfortable and cozy suite. While the location is somewhat remote, it was about fifteen minutes from main roads that led to area attractions, restaurants, etc. Our host John was very accessible and accommodating, providing a truly unique travel experience.

Another magical stay!

This was our second time visiting the caboose, and it won't be our last! The host is very responsive and kind, and we really appreciated the welcome note and goodies. The caboose itself is a dream, especially surrounded by snow. We loved spending our day hiking and our night cozy in the caboose. Our pups loved it, too!If you're looking for a hike and scenic drive, I highly recommend Wyalusing State Park. We saw 7 Bald Eagles on the drive from Wyalusing back to the caboose!

Loved it!

We loved our stay! We were here in single digit weather and still had a blast. We enjoyed the complimentary wine, cozy hot tub, and nearby hiking. The snow was magical. We'd love to come back again to experience the caboose in warmer weather. Thanks for a great stay!

We had a wonderful stay over Christmas. Lights were strung up and the path to the hottub cleared of snow. Totally idyllic. The futon is very firm, but otherwise our stay was perfect.
