Mo-Pac Couples Caboose: see bison out in front!

Summary:

This romantic and one-of-a-kind getaway offers a history all its own. Our restored Missouri-Pacific (Mo-Pac) caboose, built in the 1950s, is styled like a classic ’50s diner with cozy vintage charm. Step outside and watch our American bison herd graze and play from the deck. Just down the way, meet our friendly animals—alpacas, llamas, mini horses, mini donkeys, pygmy goats & rabbits. A stay at Buffalo Creek is truly unforgettable.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Stayed in a 50's themed Caboose on a Bison ranch. It was clean and a perfect resting vacation. We sat on the porch and watched the bison roam within 10 feet from our perch. An amazing weekend!

I stayed in the 1950's themed caboose. It was amazingly cute and so comfortable. We could sit on the deck and watch the buffalo roam the fields. I loved the fact it was pet friendly since my dog is my best friend. I got to experience this wonderful place with her. She loved the goats, Lamas, ponies and buffalo. we enjoyed exploring the grounds and shopping at the store. I highly recommend this place. Unique experience.

Fantastic experience! The caboose is as adorable as in the pics. The owners planned for every need you could have. The kitchen is fully functional and the bathroom is larger than expected. The fabulous little booth / nook up top is so cool. You can climb up and watch the bison roaming nearby. The owners were very helpful too. This is the perfect spot for a peaceful, away-from-it-all respite.

All aboard!

We highly recommend this vacation property. The property is a beautiful farm with bison and other farm animals. We watched bison grazing right from our unit only a few feet awsy! The caboose was tastefully decorated and immaculate. Theres also a model train track and store with bison meat and wonderful souvenirs. We really enjoyed our stay! Cheryl is a great host!

The Mo-Pac Caboose is great for 1-2 nature lovers and/or American history buffs!

This is a very unique place and a fun experience if you're looking for something different from the usual hotels and resorts. Up in the forest, off the beaten path with minimal lighting at night, but still felt quite safe - even took a short midnight walk to fully enjoy the natural night sounds like cicadas, crickets, frogs and owls, but mostly liked seeing all the fireflies (they're rare now where we live, in Wilmington)! The Mo-Pac caboose is neat, well thought-out, and very appealing if you like 1950s and 60s themes, or if you simply want a clean, unfussy, yet private place in a peaceful farm-type setting. Great place overall for animal-loving kids (and adults), and general nature lovers of all ages!
