Corbett Caboose on Cabell Street

Written By Lindsey Cline

Custom Landscaping for Virginia’s Favorite AirBnB

Unique spaces lead us to fun projects. When the Corbett family found an old caboose for sale online in West Virginia, they had a vision. They transformed the caboose into a one-of-a-kind short-term rental by the James River.

We planted a pollinator garden in bright red and yellow colors to match the train as requested. Yucca, coreopsis, yarrow, rudbeckia, and switchgrass make a colorful welcome for guests.

Our team also built a walkway and a unique upcycled concrete wall. An old concrete pad was broken up into pieces, which our team carefully used to build a retaining wall near the caboose to create a beautiful and functional area for parking.
