The house was clean and had some positives, particularly the fenced yard, apple trees, and proximity to the river. Unfortunately, we wouldn’t stay here again.The biggest issue by far was the train noise. The house is literally right in front of an active railroad crossing, which was not apparent from the listing. The first train came through around 9:40 p.m., and we counted FIVE throughout the night. Because it’s at the crossing, this wasn’t just the rumble of trains passing by—every train came with blaring horns and the crossing-gate alarms. Needless to say, no one got much sleep and we left with four very cranky kids and two sleep-deprived adults.The listing mentions the area’s railroad history, but there’s a big difference between staying in a charming “railroad town” and discovering your bedroom comes with VIP seating for the overnight freight schedule. Unless you’re an exceptionally heavy sleeper, bring industrial-strength earplugs or plan to be heavily tranquilized, don’t expect to get any sleep. The house is fairly basic: no dishwasher, extremely creaky floors, a very weak-flushing toilet, and a cracked/damaged refrigerator. Individually, these are minor, but together we got more of the “simpler times” experience than we bargained for.At about 240 for one night, we didn’t feel it was a good value. If you’re an insomniac train enthusiast, though, this may be your dream rental.
