Summary: The property is beautiful. Unique stay but the caboose is not usable during winter. Heat in the caboose could not keep up and resulted in 39 temps in the caboose. Our sleeping arrangements were significantly minimized. The listing is not 100% accurate. There is no microwave or electric fireplace indoors. Sam helped us on site and was extremely cordial. Management was a bit slow to respond by text and did not respond to all messages. We were told we’d be given a 30% refund for our stay due to the caboose being unusable but were not given the full refund based on the amount we paid. The refund offered was misleading but management attempted to correct it. Sam and the property are lovely but management and a few details need to be fine tuned. The farm animals were a big plus!

Summary: We found the quiet and surrounding farm truly relaxing. Even though we drove sixty miles roundtrip each day, the drive was beautiful and relaxing. The only negative was the wifi being intermittent and the listed password was inaccurate. Overall, a good week.

Summary: Our kids absolutely loved staying in the caboose and feeding/petting the animals! There were a few things I wish we were better prepared for: bring your own water for washing hands/brushing teeth (like you would do camping) because the water here has a very strong sulfur smell; bring hand sanitizer as there is no “real” bathroom sink; and lastly, the loft is too high for small children so bring an extra air mattress and do not count on that for a bed for littles. Other than that, we could not have been happier! This will be a core memory for our boys!

Summary: We stayed here while my son was playing in Oneonta at the Cooperstown tournament. It was a little far to drive back and forth multiple times a day, but it was such a special place it was worth it. My younger son loved feeding the animals

Summary: We loved the view, the tranquility, the entertaining animals, and the caboose and station house are comfortable and charming. The property was very clean and had nice solar path lights to guide you to in from the driveway. The caboose is really a rare treat. The one challenge, and it is significant - is the water. It smells very strongly of sulfur and therefore is very unappealing to wash your face or take a shower or even wash dishes. If the homeowners would install a carbon filter system it would make a huge upgrade!

Summary: We had such a nice family stay at the caboose. Our daughter loved the animals and the train. It was a short drive to Cooperstown and other cute attractions. The place itself was cute and great for a small family. The two negatives were the water had Avery strange sulfur smell. We thought once we ran the water a little it would go away but it never did. It wasn’t great when brushing teeth/showering. Also, the bathroom was filthy. Upon checking in I ended up scrubbing the toilet and shower. The toilet had the poop/pee all over it. Also, the shower had a gross orange film all over it. I ended up scrubbing both of them. They both ended up pretty clean afterwards which means that they were never cleaned to begin with. I wish these two things were never the case because. Other than that we had a nice time. It’s just hard to get over a dirty bathroom.

Summary: Nothing was a surprise about this place , it was exactly as described. It was more adorable than the pics online. The beds in the house were comfy and I love the way it was decorated. I want to thank the farmers who shoveled the snow for us, too.

Summary: What a perfect setting for us ... we so enjoyed the view while making s'mores over the fire. Short 25 minute drive to Cooperstown. Only suggestion is to add a little extra padding to the caboose beds. They are a bit hard.
