Surprisingly, my teenagers enjoyed being in a tiny cabin. I chose it for the proximity to Caprock Canyon SP. Easy check in/out process and like the whole set-up. My husband already wants to return later this year (cooler weatherless flies).

Great little place for our Caprock State Park trip. Extremely close to the park and soooo much better than packing all the camping equipment. The light strings outside made a great impression when grilling in the evening.

Perfect Canyon Getaway

The house was easy to find and in the perfect location for Caprock Canyon. We ate at Hotel Turkey on Friday night which was a short 10 minute drive away and then enjoyed our evening at the cabin before our early morning hike on Saturday.

About as close to Caprock Canyon as you can get

Excellent little cabin, very clean with a comfortable bed and internet access. Grounds were quiet and well maintained, and the entrance to the state park is just around the corner.

Cabin for the Canyon

This is the perfect place to stay when visiting Caprock. It's just a short drive outside the park and super convenient. Everything was very neat and clean. The pictures don't do the cabin justice. The area was very quiet and peaceful. Thanks Tracy, we had a great stay.

Loved the Tiny House

It was exactly like the description and photos. It was perfect for us since we basically needed a place to sleep and be close to our family reunion. The grounds were clean and beautiful. We will stay there again.
