The train passes by 5 days a week. The caboose has an addition on the back deck with a full bath and stacking washer dryer. There is a full kitchen and a barbecue grill. 2 TVs, high-speed internet and cable. There is a short queen Murphy bed and a mini split air condition / heater. You can go to YouTube and type in... "Simpsonville Station Caboose," for a short video tour. Lake Placid is a quaint little town located about 120 miles south of Tampa in the center of the state on highway 27\. The next closest town would be Sebring. It is 15 mi north of Lake Placid and best known for the 12-hour races at Sebring. Lake Placid has 29 named lakes, so fishing and water sports are enjoyed by many who come to visit. Lake Placid is also known as "The Caladium Capital of the World" You will see Caladiums growing in many of the flower beds around town, and the bulbs can be purchased from local vendors. Another enjoyable feature of this cute little town are the 49 murals painted on sides of buildings. They are magnificent, and most are within walking distance. You can pick up a mural magazine at the chamber of commerce building where they also show a 10 minute video of some history of the town and murals. Another great place to visit would be the old Lake Placid Atlantic Coastline Depot. The Historical Societies Railroad Museum is a great learning experience for all who visit. There are parks, restaurants, and golf courses, something for everyone. So come spend a couple nights in the Railroad Caboose at the Simpsonville Station. Explore the lovely town of Lake Placid and take with you a lifetime of memories. Please note, I take great pride in providing a pristine space for you to enjoy your vacation. To do so, I charge a minimal host fee for cleaning services, if anything is not to your satisfaction, be sure to let me know and I will personally ensure it is corrected.

If you like trains, you will love this place. It is an actual, formerly in service, railcar (caboose). Jerry did a phenomenal job with this one. Also, the little town is full of interest history, from tallest concrete tower of its day to the 50+ murals. Enjoy! -A&D ##### Amy W.

Jerry did an amazing job on restoring the caboose. The details were very thought out! Clean and comfortable. I don't want to give out too many of the "extra special" features here. If you are thinking about staying here, hit book! Don't even give it a second though! Jerry is an exceptional host! We even got to see a train go by. We normally don't stay at places twice, only because we want to see other places, but I want to go back! Thank you again Jerry! The memories from staying at the Caboose will last a lifetime! ##### Cindy A.

Everything about this place is special. The owner outdid himself and his vision certainly paid off. The check in and check out process is seamless. This is not your average vrbo! The owner thought of everything for the kitchen, bath, bed, deck, and then some! Jerry made our stay so very special that we almost don't want anyone else to know about it because now it will be booked year round - YES IT WAS THAT GOOD and LOVELY! - you will not be disappointed. Clean, serene, and private. 5 stars \*\*\*\*\* across the board! Thanks you, Jerry for making out time away so very wonderful! Can't wait to come back and meet you in person next time! - DL and ML ##### diana l.

We just spent a wonderful birthday weekend at the Simpsonville Station restored caboose. It was a truly unique and enjoyable experience. Jerry, the owner/host who restored the caboose is a master craftsman! His meticulous attention to detail both inside and out is incredible. We started with a picnic lunch on the deck where we met Jerry and learned about his labor of love restoring the caboose. We were floored by the clean and modern interior that was both charming and authentic. He thought of everything - even left a birthday card for my husband in the caboose! It was a great setting to relax and get away from the hustle & bustle of work life in the city. He kept in touch with us to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed - the perfect host. We felt secluded from the outside world during our stay and it couldn’t have been more enjoyable. Thank you Jerry, for sharing your special creation and for your hospitality. We definitely look forward to returning to the quaintness of Lake Placid & Simpsonville Station! ##### Rebecca L.
