I almost don’t want to post such a great review because this is such a great secret of a gem but the owners are such amazing people and the property is absolutely perfect. We had an absolutely PERFECT weekend and it all started when we pulled into the property. Tami was amazing and she made us the most lovely breakfasts every morning. The caboose was absolutely adorable and the other sleeping areas were all decorated in different themes. We can't want to come back and bring our kids. It was so peaceful and so many little miracles happened while there. What a blessing. Thanks Tami for making this experience so amazing. We certainly needed this getaway.

This is an exceptional property with an over-the-top experience! We can't say enough about the quality of staying here. Tami thinks of everything and has the gift of hospitality. Also don't miss breakfast! Great start to the day! We will definitely be back!

Absolutely wonderful restoration of the caboose. Host was very friendly and helpful! Will definitely enjoy staying here again.

I spent a few days with my 9-year-old son, and he thought it was so cool staying in a caboose. The hosts were super friendly and it was so nice to have a delicious breakfast prepared for us every morning - one less thing to think about. The place was very clean and organized - the hosts thought of everything! We would definitely stay again.

Tami and her mom were so gracious and hospitable! We were able to tour their beautiful, unique home, and view the entire town of Sturgis from atop their property - the only 360 degree view in town! The breakfasts were delicious and Tami was very accommodating to our time schedule. Very centrally located to all things South Dakota! Highly recommend!

The caboose where we stayed was really cute, well thought-out, nicely decorated and just fun overall - as was the entire spot, with various interesting "buildings" - one is a farm tank, one a sheepherder's wagon, etc. Tami was lovely, welcoming and easy to deal with. She cooked us a nice breakfast, and she and her mother joined us and gave us all sorts of interesting information about the place and the area. If you are staying in the caboose and it's a hot hot day, you're well advised to call early and ask Tami to start the air conditioning. It took a while for the caboose to cool off to a comfortable level.

We arrived late in the evening because of a late start.when we were able to communicate the entire time to the property about our arrival time. When we finally arrived the hospitality was amazing. The breakfast was amazing. We were told all about the property an even had a small tour of the property. The entire stay was amazing nothing was over looked. We will be back for sure for another peaceful weekend stay.

Very special accommodations with everything you could possibly need. Hearty delicious breakfasts to start your days of sightseeing and roaming. Welcomed tips on routes to travel. Surprised with a winery on the property and a special evening tasting. Must try the rhubarb raspberry wine - perfect ending to a long hot day!

What a unique and charming place! It felt private and secluded while being close to town. Quiet-peaceful-beautiful! Hosts were exceptional! Tami makes delicious breakfasts, and is available for any need you may have. The caboose was very clean, and so well stocked- they think of everything!! Would come back- we really enjoyed our stay!!

The Rock Island Caboose was delightful. It is clean and decorated so nicely. The history of the caboose is amazing. We loved staying at the farm on the edge of town. Tami was very accommodating and friendly. We enjoyed her mother and brother’s hospitality also. Breakfast was amazing and their wine and honey are delicious. Don’t forget to hike to the top of their property for a 360 degree view of Sturgis. We want to visit again someday.

We had a great time. The breakfasts were fantastic and Tami, the host was amazing and made us feel welcome.

This was such a fun stay. The caboose was super cute, nostalgic, and had a historically interesting story. The host was amazing. We enjoyed her homemade breakfasts each morning and all the info she gave us about their 20 acre farm, and local places to visit and/or dine. We also enjoyed the honey and wine they produce. Such a quaint and unique place to stay. We will definitely stay there again!

It was easy to get a reservation. The location was perfect as we visited many places around this area of South Dakota. Our hosts met our every need and made us feel very welcome!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this unique caboose on a very historical family property! Tami is a gracious host and has thought of everything! We'd love to come back again and will definitely refer friends!

From the moment we arrived, the experience was wonderful. The views, wine tasting and morning breakfast waiting was over the top. Speaking of getting to the top, please walk the hill to the bench and soak in the beauty. We would definitely stay again- just a magical setting!

Property was beautiful oh, Tammy was a great host and provided us with a lot of information regarding the area. Would highly recommend staying in the train caboose. Tammy's breakfast were terrific!

Awesome place to stay would recommend staying there

The hosts have been exceptional. Very insightful about everything in the area and just a pleasure to speak with. Breakfasts were delicious with the best scenery. Come visit and leave as friends. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you

It was our first vacation in 32 years and Tami was an amazing host! The caboose was simply perfect for our stay, so unique but cozy! Tami had good advice and tips for places to go and wash one was spot on!!! Can’t wait to go back!
