Must for Train Enthusiasts

If you love trains, you’ll love the Red Caboose! We stayed in car 26 and it was very comfortable and so charming. Bonus : the steam engine passes by a few times a day!
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Worth the stay if you have younger kids.

Staff is very nice, the grounds are fantastic for kids. They have a petting zoo and other activities free with the stay. Some of the train cars are newer than others. Mine was very old and needed some updating but it was still a fun and different experience. It was also convenient to shopping and Dutch Wonderland.
