My wife Kim and I from Chicago absolutely loved our 4-night stay at this amazing, refurbished train caboose!! Wow! We love Saluda and have stayed at cabins in the woods, but this was a special experience for us as we celebrated our daughter's equestrian competitions at nearby Tryon International Equestrian Center. This is a great location in historic Saluda as you can walk everywhere. The caboose has amazing amenities and is the perfect combination of historic and modern. This property has everything you need inside the fully-stocked kitchen for stay-at-home meals, BBQ grill, gas fireplace outside on rooftop deck, lots of seating on lower level front deck, a gorgeous bathroom, a huge, comfortable bed, more privacy than expected both inside and outside the caboose, a firepit out back with tons of privacy, and just an overall top-notch experience! We didn't bring our dog but he would have loved the environment and experience, too!! We could not be happier and more pleased with the whole experience!! You'll love it, too!!! It's so easy to get from the caboose to everything this entire area offers! The outfitters next door are the nicest and most accommodating human beings ever!! Great neighbors! We will be back!!! All aboard!!! My late grandfather was also a brakeman on a caboose of a major railroad in Chicago, so this experience was extra special. Our hosts were very communicative via text and email, too. They even provided souvenir glasses and a wonderful bottle of local wine.
