Very clean and comfortable — slept great! The breakfast was amazing and plentiful. We loved walking around the grounds, meeting the chickens and goats and walking the historic trail loop. The owners are so attentive and friendly. The lobby is full of interesting memorabilia, books, and games. Only wish we could have stayed longer!

The property is very unique with it's history and the 4 caboose suites. Our stay was memorable and we hope to return next year. However, we were a bit disappointed in the breakfast (not everyone likes eggs) maybe a couple choices for hot food would be nice. Our caboose could have been cleaned a bit better and the grounds needed some attention also. Matt was a fantastic host, very friendly and loves to cook! We highly recommend the Iron Horse :)

I stayed in the bunkhouse, not a caboose. Room was very small but clean. No TV or little fridge. Breakfast was simple but not “ cook to order”. Located right on the rail trail which was nice. Probably would not stay there again but it was not bad.

The owners of this establishment are wonderful people, warm and inviting. Breakfast was delicious too. Having a cozy place to rest after 60 miles on the Palouse to Cascades trail Bikepacking was amazing. This place is a must do experience if you’re passing through Cle Elum on your adventures.

I had a wonderful stay at the Iron Horse Inn in Cle Elum. The old bunkhouse been beautifully rebuilt, keeping its historic charm while offering modern comfort. The husband-and-wife team who run it were incredibly kind and accommodating, making me feel right at home. A perfect mix of character, hospitality, and a peaceful setting—highly recommend!

Our experience was wonderful! The owners went above and beyond. We had to have an early checkout and they offered to send us with fresh muffins and scones since we had to miss breakfast service. Our stay in the Milwaukee caboose was a bucket list item for our train loving kiddo and couldn't have gone better!

I stayed at this property several times many many years ago. It has been through several new owners, and my experience was as pleasant as the first time I ever went. LeAnne and Matt went out of their way to ensure our visit was as memorable as the first time. The breakfast was amazing. To quote my sister, "those were the best scrambled eggs I have ever had".
