    The property was perfect for our family reunion. Everyone enjoyed the lake and boating.

    The house was clean and exactly as advertised. The cabooses were cute and perfect for accommodating our large group. Dock, lake, and property were beautiful! Very happy with this choice for our family reunion getaway!

    Private and quiet. We loved the large dock and all the slips that were available. The main house had everything we needed and the kitchen was adequately stocked. The commercial size coffee pot was appreciated. Due to the size of our group we used five of the cabooses and they were fine according to the occupants. The only drawback was walking to the water from the house and cabooses as the road has a steep incline and is gravel and rocks and slipping was an issue. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the property for a large group.

    Our family, ranging from 2 to 80+ stayed at Caboose Junction for one week and we enjoyed it thoroughly. It was perfect for out needs. The kitchen is large which allowed us to enjoy cooking as a family and thankfully there is an additional downstairs fridge. The dining tables served us well not only for eating but for lots of board game playing. The decks are shaded and have great views. Many of our crew took advantage of the pool table and ping pong table. It had a place for everyone, whether they wanted to be in a quieter place or in the mix with everyone. We needed to reach out to the staff a few times for little things and each time they were immediately available. We would highly recommend this location for others looking for a family reunion location.

    Fantastic week on the water, with great accommodations and beautiful views. With almost 30 people we appreciated the extra refrigerators and laundry facilities. The grill on the deck got plenty of use, as did the kayaks and the beautiful new dock.
    10.0 / 10.0
    Our group of 23 stayed at CJ for a weeklong family reunion and had a great time. Between the cabooses and the main house, everyone was covered for sleeping, and the privacy of the location (and that of the cabooses) was ideal. We rarely left the property except to provision (23 people go through a lot of food), but the grocery store in Kimberling City provided everything we needed. The only issue we had was that a contracting crew arrived unexpectedly one day to install a new boat dock. Not only was it a surprise (and a concern until we found out what was going on), but it prevented us from using the dock for swimming for about a 1/2 day. A heads up would have been appreciated, but the new dock is quite nice. A minor detail - the house info binder mentions a bluetooth speaker but we were never able to find one. Fortunately, we brought our own. All in all, this was exactly the kind of facility and location that we wanted for our group, and the entire family had a great time.

    Great location and vibe - Not super clean
    Great location and vibe - Not super clean
    Let me start off by saying that my family had a great time at Caboose Junction. The space was great for the size of our extended family reunion (30 total). The boat dock and being close to the water was a huge selling point for us, and the kids loved jumping off the raised platform. The negatives for us were the state of the cabooses. The linens were clean and the beds were relatively comfy, but the windows were very dirty and there were quite a few dead bugs lying about. The main house was clean, but the back deck with the grille patio furniture was also very soiled and needed cleaning to use. We also had trouble when reaching out to the host (seems this unit is managed by a larger rental group) Messages we sent in the app asking questions went unanswered and I had to spend time on the phone trying to get ahold of someone. Overall we had a great time, but I think some in our group were turned off by the state of things, especially for the price we paid.

    I will be contacting the owner. It was not a pleasant experience. It’s odd that nobody will return my phone calls.
