The description of the accommodations and pictures were all very accurate. We liked the the little touches like the working railroad lamps and labeled wine glasses. It can be a little busy on the weekends with Green River Adventures right in front; however, the staff are super friendly and they did a great job making sure we had access to our driveway at all times (and we did a couple of their outings while there and they were great). The top deck is a great spot to eat and take in the sites of town; you're right on top of the action but it also feels very private. Fantastic to be able to walk to everything. Highly recommend and would stay there again. ##### Cousin A.

Did wish it had the potbelly stove for nostalgia sake, but enjoyed breakfast in the cupola. Bedroom and bath off the side was spaceous. Weather and time prevented use of the upper deck. Parking in back was "difficult" for large pickup truck, but simply parked in front at the operating railroad signal. Highly recommend the experience and the area. ##### David L.

Loved the train details and cleanliness of the caboose. Perfect for kids and being so walkable to Saluda. Would definitely recommend and stay again! ##### Amber J.
