We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rustic cabin is top notch and well-kept. Our host was very attentive and easy to communicate with. The location was very close to the national park entrance and only about 20 minutes away from Amarillo. We are already planning our next stay.

The cabin is very convenient to Palo Duro Canyon State Park. It is charming exactly as pictured and very comfortable. The host provided fresh eggs and breakfast fixings. We really enjoyed the porch swing on screened porch watching the goats and horses after hiking in the Canyon. We would definitely recommend this property for a trip to Palo Duro Canyon or just a West Texas experience!

Our stay in the Buffalo Lodge was exactly what I had hoped it would be: remote-ish, private, cozy, and very relaxing! Andrea was the perfect hostess! Additionally, she provided a wide variety of breakfast items. I did not expect that.

Thank you for leaving us a review Shawn! I’m so glad we spoke the night prior to your departure and you told me “ Ten stars!”, and all the things you loved about The Hideout. As per our conversation 4 hours after your departure, it is against our policy to mail your forgotten luggage bag to you. Although we did offer to drive 4 hours round trip ourselves to meet you halfway, and we did concede to mailing it to you, but you never provided your address or any reimbursement. We always try to go above and beyond to provide our guests an enjoyable experience. I’m sorry you’ve decided your problem should become our problem.

The cabin was beautifully decorated. The hostess provided eggs, sausage, English muffins, orange juice and champagne for mimosas! The kitchen was stocked with staples and ready for guests! The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom also fully stocked and beautiful! I highly recommend this property! Very peaceful and quiet yet located close enough to state park and restaurants in Canyon!

The Cabin is located in very peaceful surroundings with a good view. It was very clean and the porch was an excellent place to relax. Kitchen was very well stocked and the host hospitality was second to none! Comunication and check in/check out was very smooth. Will definitely be back.
