5 days, located near downtown Square. Farmers Market on Saturday was great. Pleasant neighborhood. Great place to establish a regional base camp while exploring the community, Palo Duro State Park and surrounding attractions.
Comfortable and cozy family get-away. Home had everything we needed for family meals and relaxing evenings.

Buffalo Junction Guesthouse was the perfect place to stay for our daughter's college graduation! Very roomy, very convenient, beds were super comfy and the host has great communication!!!
The house is very clean and charming, and had all the comforts of home. It’s close to the area attractions and downtown, so you can walk to several restaurants on the square. We (including our dog) enjoyed our stay very much!!

You were a wonderful guest. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! I’ll hope you’ll be back! We’d love to have you.
Great location, fully stocked and such a comfortable stay at the Buffalo Junction. We brought our pet, safe back yard for a dog - very relaxing stay.
The owner super friendly and easy to reach, and we will definitely be back to hike the Canyon and stay again.

Thank you for being a wonderful guest! hope you'll be back!
We had a fantastic stay at this charming, rustic home! The host was ABSOLUTELY wonderful! The home was very clean and well stocked. The beds were super comfy! I would highly recommend this gem!💖
I have family in Canyon and Amarillo. The location was perfect for seeing family, experiencing downtown Canyon and Palo Duro Canyon. Buffalo Junction is a house filled with character and charm. Everything was well kept clean and enjoyable!
We very much enjoyed our one night stay at Katye's house. She's a wonderful thoughtful hostess! The house was very comfortable and the location of the house is perfect to the historic square. We highly recommend breakfast at the Ranch House Cafe, especially Mama T's biscuits and gravy! If we're in the area again, we'll definitely stay at Katye's house.
Perfect place to bring my two boys to see the 4th done right. The house was clean, spacious and I’m the perfect spot to walk to the square and catch the parade. Glad to have nice places like these to come back to the city I was raised in.
The house was as described online. Fit out party of 5 perfectly. There are two separate living areas , so that makes it nice. If you go with a small dog, bring something to block the back yard gate.

Glad you had a great stay! Thank you for choosing Buffalo Junction! Look forward to your return!
We really enjoyed our stay at Katye's home. The cute home is decorated in a way that makes you feel totally comfortable. It is larger inside than you would think. There are two very comfortable living room/den areas to watch TV (one room gets to watch boxing or sports, the other Halmark :) Katye provded many extras to make our trip great. The neighborhood is very quiet at night so we slept very soundly. Will definately stay again.

Thank you for the very kind review. You were wonderful guests. I’m so glad you chose Buffalo Junction and we got to meet. Look forward to hosting you and your husband again. All the best.
Buffalo Junction has to be my favorite VRBO to date! The layout of the home allowed privacy for each member of the family. The sitting room and master suite was cozy. The host kept original components of home, complimented with antiques, but added modern touches. Walking distance to beautiful town square with shops, restaurants (shout out to Joe's Tacos), and LaBella's pizza nearby was best pizza, according to young adults. Both Palo Duro Canyon and Amarillo were a short drive away. The host thought of everything, but a supermarket and Walmart were nearby. If you are in Canyon, this is a must see!
This property was just right for our needs. For those times you need just a little more than a hotel room, this one fits the bill. The bedrooms are spacious and the bedding felt great. The bathrooms are recently renovated and clean! The television was great for an afternoon game with enough seating for a few to watch and a second living area where a nap could take place at the same time. Washer and dryer available and a great location for our home base as we had a 2 day event on the square over the weekend. If we ever needed a 3 bedroom rental in Canyon again, I would check dates on this one first!

Restful & Peaceful
We loved our visit. Buffalo Junction was everything pictured and then some. Several upgrades throughout the cottage: comfy mattresses, luxury linens/sheets, coffee cart with an assortment of beverage options, a snack basket upon arrival, well stocked kitchen for dishes & utensils, a candy dish of mints, various books & videos & games for entertainment, soft & cozy living room furniture with soft throws, very cool air conditioning, good water pressure for showering, etc, mostly quiet but some high speed traffic noted on 19th St in the night, 1-2 blocks from restaurants, inside washer & dryer with detergent, full sized microwave, oven, & frig, comfortable & private outdoor seating, easy-entry with personal keypad code, inside night lights, nicely decorated & clean, efficient/modern potty with odor spray too unique alternative to a motel & offers privacy with 2-3 bedrooms, good outside lighting, shampoo/conditioner & body wash available, and the house is pleasant smelling.We wld stay here again if the need arose & I think that speaks volumes given there are other accommodation options in the area. We were a group ranging in ages 52, 49, & 20 and we wld recommend staying here if you get the opportunity; we think you'll love it, esp if you enjoy low-key, quiet, & nostalgic surroundings.
Had a great time at Buffalo Junction. Really enjoyed the space for the two of us and our two young adult children. Everybody had their own sleeping quarters and the second living area was nice for my 22 yr old son w/ASD to watch the shows he wanted to watch at night and work on his computer. It also gave my 21 yr old daughter a space at night to work on her college hw when we were done for the day. Plenty of space to cook our meals, though we brought most of our meal items pre-cooked and mostly had to reheat. Nice coffee station. We had our small pup with us and we appreciated the pet cover on the one piece of furniture she could sit. She was content on her own little bed we brought with us most of the time but every now and then she wanted to be up with us. My daughter and I took the advice of Katye to walk to the square and enjoyed Palace Coffee Co and the gift shop near there. We also took the advice to visit the honey farm on our way back from Palo Duro Canyon and enjoyed their mead and small bites. We really appreciated all of the tips in the folder for eateries, etc.
A few minor things: laundry was left in the dryer for before we arrived, so we had to put it on top and I’m sure it didn’t stay too clean—sorry! The backyard had a lot of other dog waste that had not been picked up—we picked up all of ours (she doesn’t go much) and my hubby spent time picking up a good. It if the other that was there because it didn’t make for a pleasant aroma; however some of that smell we figured out was the dumpster behind the house and once the waste removal came it helped a lot.
Thanks for the great experience!

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry about the yard! I wish you would have let me know, it would have been addressed right away. My housecleaner was a sub due it being Spring Break for us locals as well! my apologies!
