À propos de cet hébergement

Railroad Caboose

I'm offering a completely remodeled Railroad caboose located at 227 Lake June Dr. Lake Placid Fl. 33852. right next to the railroad tracks in the cutest little town you never heard of, Lake Placid Florida. The train passes by 5 days a week. The caboose has an addition on the back deck with a full bath and stacking washer dryer. There is a full kitchen and a barbecue grill. 2 TVs, high-speed internet and cable. There is a short queen Murphy bed and a mini split air condition / heater. You can go to YouTube and type in... "Simpsonville Station Caboose," for a short video tour.

Lake Placid is a quaint little town located about 120 miles south of Tampa in the center of the state on highway 27. The next closest town would be Sebring. It is 15 mi north of Lake Placid and best known for the 12-hour races at Sebring.
Lake Placid has 29 named lakes, so fishing and water sports are enjoyed by many who come to visit.

Lake Placid is also known as "The Caladium Capital of the World" You will see Caladiums growing in many of the flower beds around town, and the bulbs can be purchased from local vendors.

Another enjoyable feature of this cute little town are the 49 murals painted on sides of buildings. They are magnificent, and most are within walking distance. You can pick up a mural magazine at the chamber of commerce building where they also show a 10 minute video of some history of the town and murals.

Another great place to visit would be the old Lake Placid Atlantic Coastline Depot. The Historical Societies Railroad Museum is a great learning experience for all who visit.

There are parks, restaurants, and golf courses, something for everyone. So come spend a couple nights in the Railroad Caboose at the Simpsonville Station. Explore the lovely town of Lake Placid and take with you a lifetime of memories.

Please note, I take great pride in providing a pristine space for you to enjoy your vacation. To do so, I charge a minimal host fee for cleaning services, if anything is not to your satisfaction, be sure to let me know and I will personally ensure it is corrected.

Thank you for looking, Jerry

We stayed in Jerry’s incredible caboose! The space is so much bigger than the pictures convey. Jerry out so much thought into the design and decor and it really shows. It makes for a cozy stay and has all the creature comforts you need. We explored Lane Placid and Sebring by day and relaxed in the caboose in the evening. We will definitely be back.

Lake Placid’s Little Gem

What an amazing idea and execution of such a great place to stay. I felt like a kid all over again when I arrived at the property and once I walked inside I was completely blown away. Jerry has done something special that he should be very proud of. His communication and dedication to his guests was second to none. Thank you for the opportunity, I most certainly will return!

Cozy caboose

As written a cozy, comfortable, well equipped caboose cottage. Lots of little train touches throughout including a running HO train up in the cupola. Perfect place to stay for the caladium festival and sugar cane express train ride. Jerry checked in with us to make sure there were no problems throughout our stay. Beautifully restored and appointed.

Wonderfully unique stay in nice quiet neighborhood!

I stayed here while attending my first in-person race weekend at Sebring. The Caboose was very comfortable, clean and had all the convinces I needed! With a easy 20 minute drive to the track, I will definitely make this a top choice to stay when attending future race weekends! Bring some train movies to watch! Nothing quite like watching Burt Lancaster in 'The Train' while staying on a train car!

The Amazing Caboose!

The caboose doesn’t move anymore, but it quickly takes you to a stop of unique relaxation. The attention to detail ranging from the toy train in the cupola with its matching caboose to the well-placed Edison lights show the hand of an artist. Also appreciated were the two TVs and comfortable Murphy bed. The caboose—complete with its own crossing gate—is one ride you shouldn’t miss!

Amazing restoration of a caboose. You really have to see it, to appreciate the incredible detail. And this fellow thought of everything you might need, and we mean everything. So thoughtful! It was so comfortable all the way around, even the Murphy bed! Real train goes by daily but the model inside goes whenver you push the button!

We had read all of the 5 star reviews, but until you experience this magical property, words cannot describe it! The owner Jerry is the sweetest man, who pays attention to every detail and wants to make everything perfect for you. Lake Placid is an amazing town.

Wow! The best caboose we have ever stayed in. We will definitely return. Such attention to detail and a warm creative environment. Town murals were interesting to visit. Relaxing on the deck with a burger is a real treat! Bonus to watch train travel by twice a day. A train lovers dream

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous êtes reçu par Jerry A Mazza

My name is Jerry Mazza I am 79 years old. I live on the property in Lake Placid Fl. 6 months out of the year, the other 6 months I spend in Bridgeville Pa. I bought several lots next to the property in Florida that I live on. The last lot I purchased went right up to the railroad tracks. I thought to myself, what a great place for a railroad caboose. 2 months later I had a railroad caboose.
US Sugar owns the rail line that goes past my property. With their help, I had 33 ft of railroad track laid on my property. After doing some research online, I ran an ad on Craigslist for a full size railroad caboose with cupola. I got a response from a gentleman in Brooksville Fl. After some negotiating an agreement was reached and I made arrangements to have the Caboose shipped 145 mi to my property in Lake Placid. The Caboose was a in pretty rough shape, but I couldn't wait to get started working on it. After a year and a half I completed the renovation. This was the most enjoyable project I've ever done.
I was told by some of the town seniors that the area where I live used to be called Simpsonville. It had a nice ring to it so I named my Railroad Caboose Simpsonville Station.
I hope you will have a chance to come and visit, stay in the Railroad Caboose, and visit the lovely little town of Lake Placid.
If you would like more information, do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you very much, Jerry
