The Rooms At This Railroad-Themed Getaway In West Virginia Are Actual Box Cars

There are so many unique getaway options in the Mountain State, not the least of which is the option to spend the night in a train car. That's right! There's an actual restored C&O Railroad train caboose near downtown Fayetteville that's been converted into a tiny house where you can escape for a uniquely memorable experience. So join us on this exciting train-themed getaway in West Virginia, but remember that we call dibs on the loft cupola!

If you've never slept in a train car, this place is for you!

The C&O Caboose at Cantrell Station in Fayetteville, West Virginia is exactly the railroad-themed getaway you never knew you needed.

Where else can you book a stay that's super memorable in its own right...

...plus super convenient to one of the nation's favorite hidden gem national parks.

Perched near the New River Gorge, this train car features space for four guests.

This is thanks to a bedroom with a full bed, a futon in the living room, and a twin mattress in the caboose's loft cupola (accessible only by ladder). It's one of the most fun accommodation options you'll ever encounter!

This caboose-turned-tiny house has one bathroom and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy as well.

It features a patio, cornhole, covered picnic tables, a fire pit, and a grill to enjoy the great outdoors.

There's even a second caboose, the New York Central Caboose at Cantrell Station, on the property that you can reserve (at a discounted rate).

Booking it can give you more space to bring more friends along on this train-themed adventure.

Plus, these tiny train houses are parked right next to Cantrell Ultimate Rafting.

So you are literally steps from yet another element of excitement if you want to add to this memorable adventure by going whitewater rafting.

And when it's time to relax...

... you can do so in this perch with a good book and a scenic view!

To begin planning a train-themed getaway, reserve the C&O Caboose at Cantrell Station on Airbnb or on VRBO.
