Novelty stay

Fun stay in a caboose surrounded by Bison. Didn't get to spend much time, but enjoyed the space. Caboose was clean and comfortable and it was fun to see all the animals.

The caboose was awesome. The kids loved it, well designed and useful space. The farm in general was fantastic. So much to do, we loved meeting Harold and talking about the bison. Great stay all around. We will definitely be coming back.

A night away

I decided to take my kids on a little adventure overnight. We did some hiking and made our way to the buffalo farm. They were surprises at every turn! All the different animals and the cabooses! Awesome experience to have and we will come back again! (If im being honest, the only thing i wasnt too excited about was the cleanliness of the caboose and lack of people wearing masks during a pandemic).

Great novelty and wonderful surroundings

The good: The attention to detail in decorating was superb! The beds were comfortable. What a great novelty to stay in a caboose. TVs worked great. The property manager was immediately responsive and super helpful when our code didn’t work. She also kindly recommended some things we could do around the property. The not so good: My biggest complaint was that it was not as clean as I had expected, especially in times of a pandemic. One of the reasons I chose this place was the enhanced cleaning techniques that the website said they employed. Instead, the place was very dusty, there were fingerprints on the refrigerator door and on a window when we got there, crumbs on one of the tables in the kitchen. We were planning on wiping everything down when we got there due to the virus and I am very glad we were prepared. There was also no soap in the bathroom dispenser but I did not report it since there was plenty in the kitchen so we just used that. The water was not great for drinking, so we just got bottled water and ice from the store. I’m sure we won’t remember any of that though and instead we’ll remember seeing the buffalo out the window and the wonderfully unique experience of sleeping in a caboose!

Wonderful!

Our entire stay was one of the best experiences we have had. We stayed in the orange caboose and loved it! It was very clean and the best were comfortable. The staff goes above and beyond. Cheryl invited us to the Saturday morning breakfast and it was well worth it! We will definitely be back!
