About this property
Orient Express at Olympic Railway Inn - Pet Friendly
Experience fabulous and unique Sequim lodging at Olympic Railway Inn where you stay not just in a room, but your own private caboose! Located only 3 minutes away from Sequim's downtown shops and restaurants, it sits around an active duck pond habitat that offers a countryside feel and plenty of outdoor space to picnic, relax and soak in the sun. Be part of history and see for yourself what it was like to live in an actual railroad caboose. They are perfect for family trips, romantic getaways and mini breaks from the big city's everyday life.
While Olympic Railway Inn feels just the right amount of secluded, you are still only 2 miles away from local grocery stores and shopping. Jardin du Soleil Lavender Farm is only 5 miles out and is next to Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, that is home to over 250 species of endangered birds, fish and mammals. Dungeness Spit is one of the longest natural spits in the world. In addition to its own natural beauty, it is a great spot for bird watching. While you are staying at the Inn, be sure to check out Olympic Discovery Trail that is located just steps away from cabooses. The route spans around 135 miles between Port Townsend and La Push on the Pacific Coast. As of 2021, 90 miles of the trail have been developed into a complete path. Besides the rail cars, your kids will have a blast exploring the Olympic Game Farm, a drive-through wildlife exhibit, where animals come right up to your vehicle! The Inn is equidistant from the Victorian Seaport of Port Townsend to the East and Port Angeles, gateway to the Olympic National Park and Pacific Coast beaches, to the West. Take a short ferry ride from Port Angeles and visit a foreign country- Canada, there’s so much to see and do!
After a great day of exploring, return to the most unique lodging on the peninsula, private cabooses at Olympic Railway Inn, complete with tubs to soothe your aches from all the day's adventures. Being only 30 minutes away from northern entrance of Olympic National Park, the Inn is your perfect stop on the way to/back from the park and it offers a not-so-distant weekend escape to relax, recharge and be one with nature. Welcome to the Orient Express, world's most renowned luxury train. Our 1920s Art Deco train car, sparkling in it's black and gold accents, will take your breath away. This utterly unique retreat invites you to enjoy a new kind of railroad adventure, one centered on classic comforts like terry cloth robes, vintage vinyl record tunes, relaxing sophisticated interior lighting. A private whirlpool tub will inspire breezy relaxation and unhurried enjoyment. The bedroom dazzles with golden ceilings and custom wood accents. The second floor cupola sleeping areas are an ideal lounge to curl up with a book and luxuriate in the rare pleasure of unplanned contemplation. A meticulously thought-out floor plan provides for all the amenities that are so compact and functional, it's irresistibly cute: a mini-kitchen with everything you need to prepare a home-cooked meal, a folding dining table/work desk and a sitting area/Murphy bed. Soothing comforts such as top of the line noiseless heating and cooling, plush pillow-top mattresses and high-speed internet make for a truly unforgettable night on the rails. Give the gift of time travel and awaken echoes of the bygone era. "Can't repeat the past? ...Why of course you can!" (F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby)

Amazingly cool!!!
I came out to the peninsula for a weekend alone. This property was so cute! The cleanliness and attention to detail was incredible. I mean, even the grout by the tub had glitter in it! The space was so perfect. Thank you!

Orient Express of Fun
We really had fun staying in the tiny train caboose. It was so beautifully decorated and so relaxing. We ended up sleeping in the "bunks" because it was so much fun.
