Historic, Completely Restored 1929 Caboose in Beautiful North Georgia Mountains
NEW VIDEO TOUR ADDED! For best quality, chick on Watch on YouTube. Even though listing details are provided, questions I've been asked. YES, the caboose has a fully functional, tricked out bathroom, in the silo adjacent to it (see photos and reviews). YES, the caboose has Air Conditioning & Heat in caboose and bathroom. YES, there is Hot Water in the bathroom. YES, there's an HD LCD television with Sound Bar, and with full DirectTV line-up of channels, along with Netflix and other streaming services. YES, high-speed (40mbs) WiFi is provided. In other business - No more than 2 adults, TWO NIGHT MINIMUM, no children, no pets, NO smoking, NON-smokers only please, and no discounts ever given. ---- Now the GOOD stuff: Located just one mile from fabulous Lake Burton, our 1929 vintage C&O caboose has undergone a top-to-bottom restoration and upgrade, with shades of the luxury Pullman cars of yesteryear. No detail was ignored to allow for a truly unique getaway experience. (Figure of speech. The caboose does not actually go anywhere) Though located adjacent to our also-historic general store-turned antique store, Black Bear Creek Antiques, you will have lots of privacy and space to call your own; private entrance, dedicated parking, waterfall and mountain spring creek just 20 feet away, and easy access to great restaurants (Five of the Top 10 Chefs in GA have restaurants within 10 miles of here) and shopping in nearby Clayton, and all the natural wonders the area has to offer.

What makes this property unique
Unique in that this is a one-of-a-kind center cupola caboose from 1929. Not another exactly like it anywhere else, and the only caboose in Rabun County. Very cool!
