Good stay
Good stay. The caboose was actually very spacious with lots of places to stick suitcases. More hooks would be nice and a detachable shower head would also be nice. One of the beds was decently comfortable but the other was pretty bad. Would stay again.

This was the most unique motel in which I have ever stayed. It was an old caboose converted to a motel room. We were away from others, so there was no noise.

I have wanted to stay at the Rick Bush motel for a very, very long time because of the caboose itself. I thought they did a great job at making all modern amenities available in such a small space. The theme was what’s most important to me.

Our 12th year coming here. The train we got was a little tight. Nowhere to hang clothes like a hook or something.
