Train Caboose w/ Upscale Amenities Minutes to Waynesville & Asheville

The Caboose was great, weather was cold/snowy. We had a great two night stay.

We are 80 years old. The bed was too close to the wall to enter or exit with ease. The weather was too cold for comfort getting to the bathroom at night( which is an issue with older persons) This is a perfect stay for a young couple in warm weather. Not for cold weather. It was beautifully decorated. Just not good for us.

Great host!!! Exceptional communication. Super unique property, excellent maintenance, all sorts of nice extra touches. Would definitely book again!

The caboose and adjoining bath house were fabulous! All the little extras made for such a fantastic stay. The hosts thought of so many things to make the stay exceptional. Umbrellas, lanterns, snacks, mini fridge, the waterfall, the heater on the porch, the fire pit, the grill, the bathrobes and so many other little touches. Very welcoming!

The grounds and the cabin were everything I could hope for. It felt like a safe haven for just me and I didn’t want to leave.

The property was amazing. We will definitely be back and have recommended to family & friends. Brooke thought of every possible detail.

Very unique and fun home. Great jumping off location for the Cataloochee Valley in the Smoky Mountains NP. Very Clean and nicely equipped. In a private rural setting, but civilization (Waynesville) is only about 15 minutes away. This is a home where the owner pays a lot of attention to details, and it makes for a very enjoyable stay.

Very nice

We choose this property due to the unique value. Normally we choose due to location and accessibility. This cabin is located just down from the blueridge pkwy, Cherokee and lots of other scenic areas to explore. The cabin itself was perfect. We sat outside and enjoyed the small water feature and covered patio. The bathhouse was the wife’s favorite as it is completely up to date. The only thing I had an issue with is I’m 6’2” and the ceiling in the cabin when you walk in and over the bed is just at that. I clipped my head 2 times on the ceiling. Other than that it was a glorious experience

My husband and I stayed at Station 451 to celebrate our 15th anniversary and had the most amazing time reconnecting with each other and with nature. The place was immaculately clean, adorably decorated and very cozy and romantic. We loved the outdoor shower, the waterfall, the covered porch living space to drink coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evenings. Brooke thought of everything we would need to make our trip special. We truly enjoyed every moment at the caboose!

Great communication. Outstanding location! Enjoyed our stay.

Quiet and serene setting in a good location. Wonderful host that supplies many thoughtful details. We highly recommend a stay here.

Location Privacy. Cleanliness all excellent Very nice property

This was our third stay at the caboose, and we enjoyed every single minute. We love the property and spent our entire stay relaxing and enjoying the beautiful scenery and the accommodations. The owner is incredibly responsive, and friendly. The property was very clean, and we loved all the thoughtful details. We will be back!! Thanks for a fantastic stay!

My boyfriend and I came here for a pre-Valentine’s day getaway and had the best time. The plan was to go skiing one day and to the casino the next. We had such an amazing time here though that we skipped the skiing! My boyfriend built us a bonfire one night and we watched the Super Bowl the next night while listening to the waterfall. I’ve never been to North Carolina before but staying here definitely made it one of my favorite trips ever!

Is there anything not to love about this property?! The location was fantastic and the accommodations were incredible. The separated bath house was such a nice change of pace - it made me be thoughtful about just slowing down, putting my luggage in a different location and cracking a beer and relaxing. Brooke was amazing. Hurricane Helene was on the doorstep and we chose to head out early - Brooke offered potentially lifesaving advice by recommending we not continue on into Asheville due to lower lying elevation. We are planning to come back to this area for a web redemption of our original itinerary and will 100% be back at the caboose.

Great stay, perfect location for our trip. Authentic experience with Caboose and perfect location to enjoy outdoor living on covered porch of bathhouse.

Stay was everything I expected it to be Was really a nice step back from reality

The location was perfect! You felt away from it all while still having the convenience of being close to major higways. The bathhouse was beautiful and the caboose was so cute and cozy. Brooke was an excellent host and I appreciated her responsiveness.
