This caboose stay was perfect for my train lover. We traveled as a family and there was something for all of us to enjoy. We got to feed theini horses, talked to the other barn animals, watched llamas, hiked to the playground, and admired the cabooses they had. The owner communicated with us frequently and was very friendly. The game room and store were perfect additions for us to enjoy. It was so fun waking up to seeing the bison grazing and playing in the field from our beds. We had so much fun!

This was an amazing venue for our 3 year old. The only downside was telling her we eventually had to go back home.
