50 th anniversary trip

Sunshine Casita is a clean, stocked, comfortable home to stay and enjoy the Palo Duro Canyon area. We explored the Canyon and area during the day and it was great to sit on the front or back porches to enjoy the evenings or coffee in the mornings. We enjoyed watching the cows and horses in surrounding pastures. We felt like we were part of Texas!!

Great location outside of town

Great location. Nice, clean, cozy cabin with all the amenities necessary for a wonderful stay. Canyon is a great small town and close to Palo Duro Canyon. Definitely close enough to Amarillo if that is your desire. Plenty of things to do in and around Canyon and places to eat.

Good times

Clean and comfortable. Just what we were looking for, to get away from Dallas. Palo Duro was shut down due to rain. So we improvised in Canyon. Saw a show at the university. Hiked at Cap Rock instead. Watched the cows and a jackrabbit from the back porch. We would stay here again.

West Texas Experience

We really enjoyed this nice, comfy home. It helped that there was a washer and dryer, because we had just picked our two grandkids up from church camp, on our way to Colorado and their clothes needed a good washing! Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to be away from he hustle and bustle of the city.
