This lovingly-restored 1920s Caboose used to travel the Cotton Belt Route, and now sits on a large plot on Lake Limestone in Texas and acts as a nightly Airbnb rental.
It has a giant deck on one side for eating outdoors or relaxing, as well as a fire pit for s’mores. Inside it sleeps up to five between a single bed, queen bed and fold-out couch. You’ll also find an equipped kitchen that makes it easy to cook your own meals, or picture yourself living in this beauty full-time!
You can book your stay over at Airbnb.

This is the kind of quirky, unique place I would like to BUY!
It’s pretty fun!
Love this. I collect trains but not life like ones. LMAO!!!!! Love this and would love to go there someday.
Haha well maybe you need a caboose to keep your trains in!
Very nice; we used to have a neighbor in Ottawa, KS that owned a Caboose too. Not something you see as much these days, so much for history.
I don’t see a bathroom, is there one?
It’s not pictured but according to the amenities listed on Airbnb, it does exist.
This is really great! All you need now is a Thomas the Tank Engine blanket on the bed, Dont laugh, I use one on my Camper bed :).
No laughing! Kids LOVE Thomas.
And some Adults too!
