The Paint Bank Railroad Depot was built in 1909 when the community of Paint Bank was the final stop of the Potts Valley Branch line of the Norfolk & Western Railway. After sitting empty for several years, the Old Depot was renovated and is today the elegant Depot Lodge, which features 4-rooms upstairs and two nearby cottages. Guests can even book a night in the old Norfolk & Western Railway Caboose that is located on the property.
