Sara B. Sent on 08/31/2021Dream Wedding
Caboose Farm was the first venue that I toured with my now-husband. It was secluded, quiet, absolutely stunning, and very close to Frederick and Thurmont. When we walked into the Event Barn and saw the cocktail hour space, we totally fell in love. Colby greeted us and he was so attentive and answered any and all of our questions. We drove the property and it felt like I fell more and more in love with everything I saw! We cancelled all our other venue tours and decided we would sign a contract that same night.
Colby answered every email, text message, and phone call that came his way. It always felt like he truly CARED about us and making sure we had the wedding we wanted. There were some minor issues in the beginning that Colby and the property owner handled very professionally and QUICKLY.
Rehearsal evening was held on the property and it was a torrential downpour. Colby walked around with an umbrella and helped us carry boxes of décor, etc. into the barn. He even allowed us to use a more spacious and covered space on the property to make sure all our guests were comfortable (and dry). You can tell Colby loves the property and cares about his couples.
Katy, my GIRL, was an absolute life saver on our wedding day. We had some very minor hiccups the day of during set up and Katy went above and beyond to correct them. She answered her phone and started making calls before she was “on duty” for the day and made sure we had exactly what we needed. She navigated family members, helped make sure set-up went accordingly, and kept us on schedule. I can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make sure Paul and I had “our day”.
Taylor, you were everyone’s favorite person that evening! Thank you for keeping all our guests happy and making sure no one was ever thirsty.
Our guests absolutely raved about the venue. We were told it was the perfect size and so convenient. Everyone loved the tractor ride to the ceremony site! We highly recommend staying in the houses on the property and making a weekend out of it. The houses are meticulously kept and it’s so nice walking a few feet to your room when the wedding is over. No worrying about transportation or a hot, long bus ride!
Thank you to all the staff at Caboose Farm that made our wedding dreams come true. We love the place and can’t recommend it enough to couples looking for the perfect place to get married.

This venue is gorgeous, super clean and so informative! My fiancé and I were in awe of the options that were presented to us. The numerous ceremony locations all offered something different but were all equally as beautiful. I would (and have) recommend this venue to anyone

Caboose Farms was the perfect fit for our intimate micro wedding. The venue coordinator, Colby, went above and beyond to support my husband and I in our planning. He was always quick to respond to my numerous questions and helped me with everything from our weather contingency plan to our timeline. On the day of, everything went seamlessly and the Caboose Farm team worked so well with my vendors to ensure our guests were comfortable. It was cold and rainy on our Spring wedding day and without question they went ahead and setup a warm coffee bar. It was the little touches like this that really stood out to us and enhanced the experience for everyone. As for our photo experience, the property offers a vast array of photo opportunities as it spans acres of land. It has every scenery you could possibly ask for- woods, meadows, streams, a small lake, and all of the beautiful historic houses on the property. We were able to use the Washington House for our Bridal Suite and it was so cozy and cute. We got married in the indoor space - the Main Event Barn and had our reception in the bar area. It was the perfect size for our 45 guest wedding, though they could easily host upwards of 100s of guests with their outdoor ceremony spots. Overall so happy! -

Our perfect wedding
We choose our special day to take place at Caboose Farm and we do not regret our decision one bit. We had an absolute perfect wedding day and could not have asked for a better day. The property and houses are absolutely stunning. Colby and Nicole made the whole process of planning and getting everything set up a breeze. Through out the process of planning we had a ton of questions but they were always answered quick which took a lot of stress away! The day of they made sure everything was running smooth and we were able to enjoy our day which we definitely did. They provided us a day we will remember and rejoice for the rest of our lives, an absolute perfect day! For anyone thinking of going with them don’t hesitate to do it. You will not regret your choice! Thank you Caboose Farms -

My husband and I are so happy that we decided to have our wedding at Caboose Farm. The reception venue and ceremony options were stunning, scenic, and well maintained. Caboose offers numerous on-site home rentals, which we took full advantage of. Our families and us ended up renting 5 of the homes on the property. Each home was well maintained and beautifully decorated. Staying on the property truly made it feel like a destination wedding. Colby & Katie were so helpful in making sure everything went smoothly and was taken care of. They were so accommodating and responsive with any questions we had. I would recommend Caboose farm to any couples getting married. -

10 Year Anniversary Dinner
I reached out to Caboose Farm very last minute trying to throw something together for our 10 year anniversary. We were offered the Rustic Barn with access to the bathrooms in the house beside the barn. Everything was so organized and welcoming and clean. The barn was cleared with a table as we asked. It had a table cloth and flowers and a card. The immediate responses and care reaching out to make sure we felt accommodated were so on point. The hospitality felt so positive that it also felt rare to be treated with that caliber of kindness. Highly recommended this beautiful venue! -

Maria S. Sent on 11/13/2023Gorgeous venue where the outdoors are the star!
Having our wedding at Caboose in October was the best decision! Nestled in the beautiful Catoctin Mountains, it was the perfect setting for a weekend-long celebration. We loved having multiple location options for the ceremony and reception. The site we choose for our ceremony, The Glade, is absolutely breathtaking in the fall. Unfortunately, we had to move our ceremony indoors due to rain, but even the indoor space was beautiful and cozy. The Caboose staff were very flexible in figuring out our last-minute ceremony change. Colby, the venue coordinator, was so responsive and helpful at every step of the way, and was also so patient with my endless questions. He worked so well with all of our vendors, and his wealth of experience in this industry was very evident in all of our interactions. One of the big factors that made us choose this venue is the multiple homes on the property that are available for guests to rent. We knew would have several out-of-town (and even out-of country) family members in attendance, and we wanted to offer them an easy place to stay for the wedding weekend. All of the homes were beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed, and the views were gorgeous! It made it feel like a family reunion. One of the memories I'll treasure from our wedding weekend was the beautiful early morning walk around the backtrails around the property. It was so peaceful and lovely. Would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding where the outdoors are the star of the show! -

Looking for a venue that is unique, spacious and gorgeous? With amazing staff that listens to you and is responsive? A place that will WOW your guests with amazing features and stand out views? Then stop looking because you just found it. Caboose Farms is literally amazing. A three story event barn featuring a BEAUTIFUL reception space with spiral (!!) staircase! A gorgeous bar with a movie theater! A third floor game room! And a wrap around porch to check out amazing sunsets in the mountains! Our coordinators, Colby and Nicole, made everything so easy from deciding on a ceremony location (there are 5 to choose from!) to walking us through rain plans to helping us come up with the best way to set up the reception area, they were with us every step of the way! They also gave us solid leads on amazing vendors that are familiar with their gorgeous property to ensure a smooth day! I literally cannot gush about what a great experience we had with them. Be sure to check out their rental houses too! It was so nice to be able to have the whole bridal party stay on site! What a great, great venue! 10/10 recommend! They helped us have the most magical backdrop to the best day ever! -

Alyssa K. Sent on 01/30/2024Caboose Farm is the best wedding venue!
We absolutely loved our wedding at Caboose Farm! We got married in September of 2023. We had our rehearsal dinner there on Friday and wedding ceremony and reception there on Saturday. I stayed at the Washington house with my bridesmaids and it was the perfect location to get ready for my wedding day. We rented the houses on the property for the weekend for the wedding party and family and friends and they loved it. It was so convenient and nice having so many people on the property. We really felt like we had the entire weekend to spend time with them and celebrate. The houses are all clean and beautiful. The property itself is so well kept and stunning, so many options for wedding photos. We also loved the different ceremony option sites and ways to have your reception. We received numerous compliments about how unique the wedding was and how beautiful Caboose Farms is. Also, Colby was amazing throughout the entire process. Truly, he made it a breeze. He was responsive, and so helpful and kind with answering our questions and requests. He manages the property so well, I never had to worry on my wedding day. He handled the vendors and kept the day running smoothly. I highly recommend holding your wedding, or any event at Caboose Farm! -

Scenic perfection
I looked EVERYWHERE for somewhere with gorgeous views and something with accommodations that we needed and I promise, with zero exaggeration, Caboose Farm nailed it. I emailed just to get a little information and Colby instantly emailed me back and stayed in constant communication with me and I had not had that luck with any place thus far. He was extremely patient with my anxiety and questions and went above and beyond for us. We met to look at the venue and I was sold! It’s GORGEOUS! There are beautiful views in every direction and the venue is amazing inside as it is outside. My now husband was sold when he pulled up because the pictures don’t do it justice. And I’m telling you, he was not sold on any venue at all! It’s an amazing venue and I am so happy we found it. Our sons favorite part was the train of course and he will not stop talking about how cool it was. -

The Best Experience!
Caboose Farm is beautiful with so many great ceremony sites and picture opportunities. Colby is so personable and worked with us to make the weekend be exactly what we envisioned. The staff members were very helpful and everything ran smoothly. I would 10/10 recommend this venue to anyone that loves the outdoors! The on-site houses they rent are also a great way to have your family and friends spend the whole weekend together. It's not just a day here, it's a full experience! -

Alyssa B. Sent on 07/31/2023The best, most beautiful venue!!
Caboose Farm is the BEST! From the moment we stepped foot on the property, we knew this venue was the one. It is so stunning (no matter what season), and so well cared for. There are so many ceremony sites to choose from (we went with the Hilltop Vista - it was perfect!), and the Event Barn is the best, most versatile place to celebrate - we hosted our rehearsal dinner, cocktail party, and reception there, and all our guests loved it! We rented out all 7 houses on the property for the weekend, and it was such a beautiful blessing to have all our closest family and friends so near to us the entire time. The houses are spacious, clean, and so cute, and we loved staying in them. We had the pleasure of working with Colby during the planning process, and he was incredibly responsive, kind, and so easy to work with. We had so many questions over the course of the 12+ months we spent planning, and Colby answered each one of them with understanding and generosity. When we arrived for the weekend, he even helped unload our cars! He's a standup guy and we felt so lucky to work with him. We are so happy and grateful to have celebrated our wedding at Caboose, and we could not recommend it any more highly! -

Nicole B. Sent on 07/30/2023Beautiful versatile venue with amazing staff
I am so so so glad we chose Caboose Farm to be our wedding venue.
First off, what a special place- we just loved the way it feels there. The property is so quiet, serene, beautiful, and well maintained. AND it is perfect to be able to have a true "wedding weekend" all in one place. From rehearsal dinner, to welcome party, to ceremony, reception, after party, and Sunday send off brunch -- it was perfectly suited to do it all. AND on top of all that, the majority of our guests were able to stay right there on site which just made for more quality time and more convenience.
It's worth noting that we live in San Diego, so we planned this whole wedding from a distance and I think the number one reason that was possible was because we were working with Colby. From the very beginning when we first inquired about the venue, Colby's responsiveness and kindness via e-mail & phone is what helped us seal the deal, blind, from 3000 miles away. And that level of helpfulness continued all the way through the wedding weekend. Colby and his staff experience weddings almost every single weekend all year long- but they still somehow made our big day feel so special and prioritized. Colby was super accommodating and supportive, and was a great help throughout the event and in the hours leading up to it. We had an AMAZING wedding day (really wedding weekend) and I’m CERTAIN having Colby and the rest of the staff is part of what made it so great.
Our wedding ended up being 97 total guests. We very comfortably had 11 tables + a sweetheart table and a great sized dance floor.
The other thing worth noting-- It never ever felt like we were getting nickel and dimed, getting a surprise fee added, or being limited by venue "rules" --which was a huge plus.
