We loved staying here. We stayed in the Honeymoon caboose. The room was great- no closet, but there are hooks to hang clothes-, the bed was comfortable and the deck on the back was great for sitting outside with your morning coffee. The petting zoo was lots of fun!! There is a lovely gift shop and the Toy Train Museum is a must see.
