My favorite place!
I somehow always mess things up when I book but the women who owns this place is very nice and understanding. I sleep the best here then any hotel. It’s by far my favorite little house! I’ll be back to this area in a year and I’ll book again without question. Hopefully this time I don’t mess up the booking lol

Just what we needed and what was expected
Everything was exactly as expected. We were in Canyon to help our newlyweds (sonand daughter-in-law) move into their apartment to start the new school year. We wanted to have a place that would take our dog and allow us to give the kids time to themselves. The location was excellent. AND everything in the home actually worked! We definitely highly recommend this Casita if you are looking for a comfortable, affordable place to explore the area or just relax and hang out..

Wonderful as usual.
This is our second stay so obviously we are fans. Cute, clean and comfortable. Just what is needed since we spend our vacations out of doors anyway. We’ve now stayed during below freezing temperatures as well as 100° and the house, especially the sleeping areas are very comfortable. The yard is amazing for pets. Don’t plan on having groups over or cooking large feasts, the house is very small and kitchen is minimal, as the description clarifies. The owner is very responsive at all times of day.

The Canyon Casita was a safe haven for us in a jam-packed week. The yard for our little dog was the icing on the cake. We would definitely recommend it.

Great cozy spot
The house worked great for our trip. The yard was big and the neighborhood was quiet. I was surprised how low the ceiling was, my husband is 6’5 and he had maybe an inch or two- tall people be careful 😁 very comfy bed and close to the canyon and Amarillo. Will stay again.

Great place for folks visiting Palo Duro with a dog
This place is located in a little neighborhood near to anything one might need during a stay. We used the place as a jumping off point for a few days of Palo Duro exploration. Our husky approved of the yard. I thought the place was charming.

Sweet & Peaceful
I loved my stay in this castia! It was cozy, had all the basic good stuff, a comfy bed and a hot shower. The back yard was so nice for my indoor cat who had an absolute ball pretending he was an outdoor cat). The neighborhood is very quiet. I loved seeing the big Canyon sky each day … Canyon is a great little town that has more than meets the eye. Friendliness is a fact. This is one of my favorite stays.

Everything was just perfect. I came for school from NY and was really nervous about being in Texas for my first time. This was the perfect set up for me. Quiet, Safe, and Calm. You are surrounded by a school at one end and a church at the other. The place it’s self couldn’t have been more perfect

Great little house.
We canceled our camp site due to unpredictable weather and were so happy to find this rental. All essentials were in order, clean, comfortable bed, essential dishes and supplies, sufficient outlets, heaters. The fire pit and fenced yard were wonderful. We are a close family of three and so the layout didn’t bother us, be sure to understand that, not only are there no doors, the bathroom and kitchen are accessed by walking through the main bedroom. This casita was a great find and we will absolutely stay here again.

Perfect little getaway
Canyon is a small town with a big spirit. This little home fits right in with that description. The house is just a few blocks from the City Square where there is a few awesome shops to check out and some fantastic food. The home was very comfortable for my wife and I. It is a small home with low ceilings and a small stature but it fit us fine. Everything we needed and then some. The bed is a bit smaller but we knew that going in. I am 6’ tall but we made it work. Next time we are in Canyon, we will be staying here again!
