Great and unique experience
We totally enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The caboose is decked out in retro however, everything is clean and spotless. steps to downtown shopping and eating and centrally located for things such as shopping, wineries and other recreational activities. We stayed for the weekend because we were attending a Wedding Venue that was 15 minutes up the road.

Great location and fun experience
My husband and I had a great experience staying in the caboose! It was perfect for the both of us! Everything inside was great and true to authenticity. Please note there is only a tub, no shower but it was a fun adventure. This location is walking distance to everything downtown.

Fantastic stay!
What a treat this caboose was to overnight in this weekend. The attention to detail in regards to guest comfort was excellent. It was cozy and perfect. Loved reading the history of the caboose & how it came to be what it is today. It is decorated so cute. The location is perfection-we walked to everything! Would highly recommend for a trip to Wimberley, we would do it again!!

Cute place
The place was nice and clean. Only issue was the bath tub. Very small and hard to get out of. Very slippery. Should install some grab bars as it is hard to get out of and I almost feel. My husband is a big guy and couldn’t easily use either. The hot tub had an odor. Bed not comfortable. Very cute but not practical.

Great couple get away
The caboose was very clean and in the middle of town with parking. This rental really made our trip. So much thought and detail was put into this property. The bathroom has a gorgeous clawfoot tub with a water sprayer, so no shower. We enjoyed the binder showing the process of refurbishing this caboose and the historical artifacts throughout. The outside gave plenty of privacy and space to relax with a firepit and a hot tub. There is a small freezer/ fridge, the neatest kuereg, and microwave. There is not a stove, but it isn't really needed with all the food options in town. Bath towels are provided, but you will need to bring swim towels for the Blue Hole. Favorite Vrbo to date!

Mostly happy with stay
On our final night there was a gay pride event just feet away from doorway with hooping and hollering and loud speakers blaring music till 10 o’clock PM. I understand Austin is only 30 minutes away but we didn’t expect that scenario in Wimberly. We will never return.

Great location and Super Cute!
Property was perfectly located for hanging out in Wimberley without having to drive anywhere. It's only a few steps to everything on the square and is super cute. We loved it and the only complaint was my husband not loving the lack of a real shower, but he survived!
