You will hear the sounds of trains going by, construction forklifts beeping, etc. The factory works through the night. Some nights are more noisy than others, and unfortunately this is out of our control. Sunday nights tend to be the quietest as often the factory is off work! Our family lives nearby and is not usually bothered by it, but we realize it's not for everyone, particularly if you're a light sleeper. The caboose has sound-proofing and double layers of insulation around the bedroom area, and we provide a white noise machine and portable fan for your added comfort. UPDATE: 9/29/26: Over the next week or so, the city is upgrading the water lines a block away from James Station. At times, you may hear daytime noise, or you may have to wait a minute for the construction workers to move their equipment to allow access past that street. They have assured me that you will always have access in and out of the property. *You must be 25 years or older to reserve James Station. 🌾 ANOTHER UNIQUE STAY STEPS AWAY!: We also offer a luxe grain bin home across the street! (sleeping 4) For larger groups, we have a 1 bedroom apartment AND a separate 5 bedroom home nearby that you may rent in coordination with your stay. Look up our listings (under Amy's profile) "Silo on the James," "River View Downtown Historic Apartment" or "Lighthearted Downtown Home."

Other things to note Save our listing: click the heart in the top right corner! POTENTIAL FOR NOISE: Situated on the river is a historic iron pipe factory and a railroad. You'll get to see some trains go by and watch the workings of a 24-hour factory (a rare glimpse at American manufacturing!). These industries are not noise free! Our family lives in the neighborhood and is not bothered by it, but we realize it may not be for everyone and some nights are louder than others. We've added noise reducing insulation to the caboose and also provide a white noise sound machine as well as a fan in the bedroom area should guests feel they need it. POTENTIAL OF TOURISTS: Our caboose is listed as one of Virginia's official "LOVE"works tourism signs, so on occasion someone might drive up and want to take a picture of the caboose from the street. Only our registered guests are allowed on the deck itself, so please let us know if there are any issues.
