Amazing and relaxing
We didn't want to leave!! Such an amazing place in a really great town. The Caboose was so warm and cozy. It has everything we needed. The rooftop deck was so great in the evenings. A great little piece history. I have already recommended it to all our friends.

We had another great time at the caboose. As always it was easy to check in and it was clean and well stocked. We had a great time and hope to be back soon.

Unique
Although modified on the inside to better accomodate guests, it is a REAL caboose complete with trucks and couplers. Did wish it had the potbelly stove for nostalgia sake, but enjoyed breakfast in the cupola. Bedroom and bath off the side was spaceous. Weather and time prevented use of the upper deck. Parking in back was "difficult" for large pickup truck, but simply parked in front at the operating railroad signal. Highly recommend the experience and the area.

Steppin' Back to the "Southern" Days
As a major Southern Railway buff, having the opportunity to stay in Central of Georgia X-61was simply outstanding. The mix of modern / rustic decor and the railroad history is just right. The way that this Caboose has been preserved and re-imagined, while being historically accurate, provides every comfort of home imaginable with some bouses! It was an exceptional birthday surprise and I look forward to returning.

Unique Caboose
The property is within walking distance to restaurants and shops. If you have a truck or large vehicle the parking behind the caboose is very tight and turning around takes a bit more than a 03 point turn.

We unfortunately had to cut short our stay after one night due to an emergency back home but I can’t imagine a nicer place to stay in Saluda. I hope we have an opportunity to return.
