Plenty of room

The location was perfect, right near Canyon's main streets. Although the bathrooms are a bit odd and dated, the entire place was exceptionally clean and the bedrooms are spacious. There's plenty of room for a family to spread out in this home.

There is a lot of room for everyone for sure! Very close to businesses and for shopping! Our group was very surprised at all the items that were included, including coffee and filters, coffee pods, and even the soap dispensers in the shower with shower gel, shampoo and conditioner (one is a walk in shower) plus some water and snacks. Very convenient location and comfortable.

Comfy 70s throwback

Spacious and homey, with beautiful wood built-ins and lots of character! Nice large backyard for the pups to roam and the cutest dining area ever. We appreciated the gratis coffee bar and snacks. Thanks also for the Wrong Way Diner discount; we took advantage of the free burger and it was delish!

Most comfortable home for family

We wish we had longer to stay. Traveling with young adults (grandkids) 17-22 yoa. They loved the outlay of the home with gathering space inside second den and outside picnic tables. The backyard went on forever and my pupp loved chasing the dragon flies. We visited Palo Duro Canyon on way to Colorado Springs.

Older house but lots of room and clean

We stayed with 5 adults and there was plenty of room. Nicely appointed with comfy beds. Huge yard. Only issue we had was a clogged toilet that never got serviced. We were told a plumber would be called but never heard back from owner. Would stay again.

Perfect location

We stopped over for several days to hike Palo Duro Canyon and we weren't disappointed. The house has more then enough space and a large back yard for my pup to run in. Communication with the owner was as easy as it gets he's very responsive to any questions.

I thought this place was wonderful just by looking at the pictures, but the pictures didn’t tell all! Not only was the communication excellent, but this place is so spacious and amazingly comfortable! Even the backyard is nice and big, with a grill, lights, and 2 picnic tables! The beds are very comfortable and this place has everything I could ask for! The neighborhood is quiet and feels like home too! will definitely be staying here every time I’m in Canyon!!! This is definitely a rare find!!!!!

The place itself is very nice. Big plenty of room and very clean. We rented this place to have our grandaughters 1st birthday party. In the pictures it shows green grass in front and back. Those pictures should be updated. Yard is no longer green, very dry.
