Caboose was clean and quite comfortable. It was so convenient to park right outside the door so no long haul with luggage. Desk staff was very polite and explained everything and then called a short while later to see if we needed anything. Loved the stay, the petting zoo and buggy rides all on site. Highly recommend.

My first stay at The Red Caboose Motel was in May 2016 and I have stayed numerous times since. I decided to book a stay for this month to commerate it as a 10 year anniversary of my first Red Caboose stay. I booked the same caboose, ate the identical dinner and breakfast at Casey Jones that I had on that first stay. I was checked in by Christine on this visit and she was also the same one that checked me in on my first stay in 2016. I have seen numerous improvements done to the property over the past decade. My stays are always comfortable and enjoyable at The Red Caboose Motel and I am looking forward to many more stays in the future.

I loved this place. The rooms were a little small, but their charm easily made up for that. They were immaculately clean and the staff were great. Also, there is so much to do (most of it railroad related) within walking distance! I highly recommend to anybody interested in visiting Lancaster County

The employees were just the nicest! The place was adorable. And the atmosphere was relaxing, calming, and fun. We really enjoyed it there. Even walking around looking ant all the cabooses and feeding the animals. Just hanging out. A beautiful place!

Shauna • Family Trip

The staff were friendly and I liked parking right in front of your room/train car. The mattresses were all uncomfortable- that’s my main complaint. There’s not a lot of space in the room but that is to be expected because it’s a train car. You go for the uniqueness of the stay not for the 5 star amenities. My kids loved watching the Strasburg railroad train go by. The restaurant there is pretty good and the servers were all excellent and friendly. You can see the train from the restaurant windows too. In the restaurant gift shop there is a model train you have to pay a dollar to run on the ceiling and my son really enjoyed that. There is a little petting zoo out front that you can put a quarter in to get some food and feed the alpacas, donkey, and goats. We enjoyed our stay and will likely return.

Lan • Family Trip

Ofcourse it’s great for children who love trains. We had a two bed caboose option and wished we gone with bunk beds so had more floor space for them to play around inside. Being right beside the train tracks, buggy rides and petting farm, the restaurant and shop is just perfect. If you have little ones the shop in the restaurant has some great books available too.
