About this cabin rental
The Caboose Roost is a beautifully restored, authentic 1958 train caboose where railroad history meets boutique comfort. Located in Fredericktown, Missouri, about 90 minutes from St. Louis, this one-of-a-kind stay is an unforgettable destination for couples, families, train enthusiasts, and outdoor adventurers.
Inside, original railroad character and mini-museum details bring the caboose’s history to life. Settle into the comfortable queen bed or climb into the cupola loft—a guest favorite, especially with young conductors. The caboose sleeps up to four guests and includes a spotless private bathroom, kitchenette, Smart TV, Wi-Fi, quality bedding, robes, Bluetooth speakers, chargers, games, and thoughtful comforts throughout.
Coffee, tea, hot cocoa, local honey, and fresh muffins for your first morning make it easy to slow down and enjoy the experience.

The place was clean, smelled fresh, the muffins she had were amazing. Every little detail about the place being a train cargo was perfect. The hooks for towls and toilet paper being part of the rail road. The flashing lights when coming into the property was very neat. The fire pit was perfect and she supplied the wood, lighter, and fire starter. Everything about this place was amzing. Will definitely be back. Worth the 4 hour drive.
