The C&O Caboose at Cantrell Station, Minutes to Fayetteville!

Located just outside of Fayetteville along Gatewood Road, the C&O caboose is a completely renovated steel caboose. The train car has been thoughtfully converted to a tiny house and is located right next to Cantrell Rafting. The caboose has one bedroom with a full size bed, a loft area accessed by a ladder with a twin mattress and a futon in the living room. This cute rental is located across the street from the Top of The Hill cabin, next door to the New York Central Caboose at Cantrell Station, and Cantrell Ultimate Rafting.

The C&O Caboose features a large patio, a covered patio with picnic tables, an outdoor fire ring, and a charcoal grill. The building is used for storage at this time.

If you have a larger group and are interested in renting both of our cabooses please contact us for a discount rate.

Country Roads!🎶
We can’t wait to come back to the caboose! It was absolutely perfect for our weekend rafting get away. Easy to find, clean, and in the perfect location. Host was super helpful with food and hiking suggestions and Cantrell Rafting took us on what might be our favorite trip to date. Perfection!

Late season stay for mom and son
The caboose is undersold by its current pics and description. The in unit heaters were ample to keep us cozy with the chilly nights, And ample blankets and fire pit tools were on hand, which made our campfire super easy to enjoy. Shower is good pressure and smartly designed to maximize space. Smart TV with many streaming apps to use (some already signed in, e.g., Tubi with ads).Coffee K cups provided but machine also has standard filter for brewing large pots. Couch i) s a futon convertible if needed. Cupola/loft is more of a one person (my son is age 10) space, but all the kids will certainly fight to stay up there ;) We were 5-10 min drive from every trail/site/restaurant we wanted. Didn't get a chance to use the Cantrell kitchen/bar on the weekend since off season, but it was just in your backyard.

Awesome Caboose tiny home
The C&O caboose was a great space for our family getaway! The weather was beautiful so we spent a lot of time outside. I enjoyed watching lightning bugs and deer from beside the fire pit and we ate most of our meals outside on the patio. My 6 year old LOVED the loft because it was "his" space in the train. It is located 5 minutes from town and also convenient to all sorts of hiking and climbing locations. We recommend Pies & Pints, Freefolk Brewery and The Handle Bar for food/drinks and Cathedral Falls, Endless Wall trail and Fayette Station River Access for exploring.

Perfect little find
The caboose was just what we needed. It was a unique stay next to Cantrell rafting. We stayed and walked over for our rafting adventure. The second bedroom is a loft in the top of the caboose - kids loved it.
