“Great getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2009

My husband took me for a birthday trip for the first time in twenty years. The weather was beautiful and caboose #102 was just what I needed for some downtime. It was quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. Just a few minutes from town and some great shopping experiences. We have been coming to Eureka Springs for the past fifteen years and this was one of the most beautiful times we have come. The caboose was comfortable, clean and cozy. A charcoal grill outside, a hot tub, and we had all we needed. Just a few groceries and we were set. The bathroom was roomy enough considering it it a restored caboose. Extra towels were provided. Bring your own shampoo and soap, body wash, etc. I loved the cupola. My husband sat up there and birdwatched. The train literature and books were awesome. A tv/dvd player was fine (although it was in an awkward place), but we weren't there to watch television. The queen bed was comfy and the heat and air worked fine. A very pleasant stay. Not difficult to find if you follow the directions.

“Unhappy Stay”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2009

person found this review helpful

We found the caboose we stayed in to be rundown and in need of repairs. To name a few things, the hammock was so streched out you could not use it, there was a blown circuit and none of the outdoor lights would work on arrival, the patio umbrella was just thrown behind the caboose and was broken and unuseable, the hot tub would not work for the last half of the stay, there was a pile of debris piled right at the end of the caboose that was an eyesore and we killed bugs and spiders all weekend inside the caboose. Needless to say "Romance on the Rails" it was not!!!

“Memories and Moments”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2009

My Husband and I rode our motorcycles, along with my father and stepmother to Livingston Junction. My father and stepmother stayed in the Depot and my husband and I stayed in caboose 101 for four days. It was the best trip yet! We had a blast! The caboose was so cozy and romantic, clean and majestic, and the depot felt just like home, a quick trip in town and we could get anything we needed food, drinks you name it! The hot tub was a added bonus, a dip before bed and a dip when we woke up and WOW what a way to start the day! This place has it all if your wanting peace, tranquilty and good times with your spouse and family! A ring from the bell to let us know dinner was ready and down the hill went LOL! As a matter of fact that was just three weeks ago and we are already planing another trip there! To good times, great memories and fantastic moments! Thanks to the owners of Livingston Junction!

“Amazing, Unique, private and we will return!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2009

My husband and I celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary in Caboose #3. It was truely a wonderful place to stay. The caboose has been restore and has everything you need for a wonderful stay very close to Eureka Springs. We loved the hot tub, deck, hammock and grill. We extended our stay one night as we were enjoying ourselves so much. You should not stay here if you are looking for a plush all service included place. We cooked our own meals and never saw or heard another person. Very secluded and relaxing. I would advise to not arrive after dark as it can be a bit hard to locate in the dark. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle and relax with a bit of history stay here.

“Quite an experience!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2008

If you want to stay at a place like none other in Eureka Springs, this is it! They have three cabooses in a wooded area about two miles north of town, each done in its own theme. We stayed in the "Country Decor" one. All three have been restored and have full plumbing, electrical, and sewer drainage. The one flaw was the toilet room. It`s a bit cramped if you have to sit down, but with a bit of body english, you can manage after a few times. The kitchen is done up real nice with a microwave, mini-fridge, counter with sink, cabinets and small table with chairs. The shower stall is in a corner in the bedroom, which is in the back with a TV. The place was actually quite comfortable, with all kinds of train paraphenalia and books. There`s even a mini stereo with a CD that has train sounds on it! Outside is a large wood deck with a grill and hot tub. The cabooses are separated by woods so they can`t "see" each other, which makes it nice! I would recommend this place to anyone who is willing to be a bit adventerous and wants something different.

  • Liked — Isolation, uniique accomodation
  • Disliked — The toilet room
