First, the communication from the host and their willingness to accommodate all 3 of my pups was amazing. Furthermore, my arrival was fairly simple, as the lock box was easy to access. However, the front and back doors both stick, as the home itself is in definite need of some TLC. This house was built in 1940, so there are structural issues that are starting show, such as slightly warped flooring, etc.I was a little surprised upon realizing how there were no doors separating the living room from the bedroom or the bedroom from the kitchen area. The bathroom has a door, but otherwise there are only doorways, so this is something to keep in mind.My only truly negative point about the home is that it was "buggy." There were obvious issues with insects and spiders around the home's exterior, with my needing to deal with several issues inside as well. Of course, bugs can arrive via another's luggage, so I want to be fair - but I was very careful not to leave any luggage open during my stay and checked everything thoroughly before I left.On the plus side, the host ensures the place is properly cleaned between visitors, with all typical amenities being available (fridge, microwave, etc). There is also an excellent washer & dryer, with my recommendation to use them before packing.Overall, my experience was positive, with the backyard being fantastic. There was plenty of room for my pets to run along with a secure fence so they couldn't get out. Good Luck
We were very happy with our stay. We brought our dogs and they loved the big backyard. The house was clean and had everything you need. We will definitely return in our future trips.
We loved our stay. The place was cute, quiet and comfortable. People in Canyon were so nice. We would come again!

Had a great stay here. Found the place quite charming and the area was nice and quiet. Easy shot down to the highway to Amarillo. I have no complaints at all, and would gladly stay here again.
Love how cozy this place is and also that it’s so close to my daughter who attends A&M.

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.
The house is adorable and was perfect for my needs while I was staying in Canyon. The house is well equipped and has a nice, spacious back yard. The host was kind and easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again!
It was a great time. Perfect little house and was perfect in every way. Very clean and we had a great time there. I will stay there everytime we get to come to town. Host was awesome. Very special little home and we loved being there.
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.
