Everything was so easy and the property description is very true. In fact, it was even more perfect than we had expected! The owner was great with a couple of questions we had before arrival and made it clear she would be available if we needed anything.

Spicer Bunkhouse

Wonderful 3-night stay at the Spicer Bunkhouse! Peaceful country setting with horses and donkeys, yet minutes from Palo Duro Canyon. The Western decor was charming and cozy, and Becky thought of everything. Her attention to detail made our anniversary extra special. A perfect mix of comfort, charm, and convenience. Can’t wait to come back—thank you, Becky!

Spicer Bunkhouse

We really enjoyed our stay over Thanksgiving! Becky was a perfect host and her bunkhouse is amazing! It is stocked with everything you need and is a short drive to Palo Duro State Park. We had a great time just hanging at the bunkhouse, playing games, enjoying the view of the horses and getting visits from her cute dogs. Thanks for having us Becky!

Wonderful Getaway!

We loved staying at the Spicer Bunkhouse! It was the perfect place for a getaway. Welcoming, peaceful and relaxing. Loved watching all of the animals and playing with the dogs. Becky was a wonderful host! She made our stay perfect. The location was great and made for a short drive to Palo Duro Canyon, the town of Canyon and Amarillo. This is a great place to stay!

Family Vacation

Becky was a stellar host! Her property is a peaceful oasis just south of the community of Canyon. The property is so well appointed! Becky has truly thought of everything. Grab a few groceries and don’t go anywhere…you’ll be delighted! But it’s also conveniently located to Canyon (with several good restaurants), Amarillo and especially the gorgeous Palo Duro Canyon. You really need to stay here, would do it again in a heart beat!! You won’t find a better place to experience something new!!

A slice of Texas Panhandle heaven.

You are not just booking a home, but an entire experience. Becky has created a very special place in Texas’ Panhandle. We were treated to a wonderful home with no detail missed, to the property complete with horses and an infinite horizon to watch the sunsets. We were here for a family wedding and our six year old granddaughter was fascinated by the horses. Becky let her help feed the horses and donkeys, an experience and memory she will never forget. Thank you, Becky, for sharing you wonderful home and property.

Perfect for Palo Duro

This property and its owner exceeded all expectations. I brought my three kids to Canyon, Texas to hike the lighthouse Trail in Palo Duro Canyon. Our two night stay just 15 minutes from the park gates was excellent. This property is immaculately, kept, and full of unique, personal, and authentic western style. All of the finishes and fixtures are top quality, and the host couldn’t be a more genuine and helpful lady. Several horses, donkeys, and friendly dogs live on the property, and the host invited my daughter, who is crazy about horses, to help her when she fed the animals. Easy to find, clean, and peaceful. You can’t do better than this place. Top quality linens, very nice accommodations, and snacks provided upon our arrival make things extra extra nice.

Best VRBO ever!

Becky was an amazing host! She accommodated our large family and went above and beyond with the gift basket and extra touches. The things we had forgotten, were there. She also make all the extras in the home useable and useful to us. We contacted her once and she responded immediately. She respected our privacy but was available. I cannot say enough about her graciousness as a hostess. Now for the house! This was the best bathtub I’ve ever used! She even provided Dr. Teals and Native brand products ❤️ The bedding was high quality and the beds were so comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and everything you could need was there! The art was interesting and creative as well as the historical tidbits and photos throughout. The bottle cap floor in the pantry and the red fridge made me happy. She had a beautiful Christmas tree and lights around the house to give the perfect holiday vibe. As for location….we were between Canyon and Palo Duro in a very quiet area. That was perfect for our family who drifted between both places. The animals on the property made us feel right at home, especially the donkey. We loved our stay. I highly recommend this property. Out of 10 years of VRBO reservations, this one is our favorite.

Just wow!! I cannot say enough good things about the Cowboy Casita. Our youngest is a freshman at WT and we have had the pleasure of staying at Becky's a few times now. From the minute you drive into the property you know that you are in for an amazing experience. The home is stunning and Becky is an incredible host. Of course the dogs make the experience unforgettable. You will not be disappointed !!! Five stars is not enough.

A taste of West Texas

We loved our stay here. We were visiting from another part of Texas, and I think this home would give folks from out of state a great taste of authentic West Texas. The home feels like you're staying at a friend's house. It's very well furnished and includes lots of personal touches like family history and photos, beautiful artwork, and heirloom pieces without feeling fussy. The beds were comfortable, the water was hot, snacks were waiting for us in the kitchen, and the family animals on property were excellent greeters. If you're traveling with someone with mobility issues, I think the only thing to be aware of is that there are steps from the driveway to the main door, there's a step down from the main living area to the bedroom area, and there's a small step into the shower in the main bathroom. This place was beautiful, thoughtfully done, and a real pleasure. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Comfortable Casita in Canyon

Wonderful stay near the Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Idyllic property, with a quiet modernized casita on an active horse farm. Becky, the owner, is most attentive and the home was well stocked with every creature comfort with a well stocked cooks kitchen (plus snacks, coffee and tea), comfortable couches and beds, and even warm blankets and candles. The family has a long history with horses, and the home reflects it in the photos, books and vintage decor. There is a porch on two sides with plenty of chairs for sitting and greeting the on site dogs and watching the beautiful horses in the Texas breeze. Relaxing, comfortable, close to town and the canyon. Perfection!

Country living at it’s finest

Turning into the drive, blue quail were at the gate and ran just in front then to the side of our pickup. That told us we were in a good place. With the horses and donkey in the pasture beside the property, barns and stables as well, the setting was perfect. The house is really nice, very comfortable, very clean, very country. No city noise out here. That was why we chose to stay there. Becky was great, available if needed. You will not be disappointed in this one. Wish i could load a picture, the sunset was amazing. We hope to stay there again. Bill & Patty
