Property allowed Pete to run around with the hosts pets, it was a very unique stay that provided a lot of comfort for the money spent. Becky was very communicative and friendly as well as providing snacks and drinks at the rental.
We'd read rave reviews -- and the box car lived up to all the hype. A unique experience and respite on our cross-country trek. Feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to chat with Becky and meet her uber friendly dogs who were so accommodating to our pooch The place was spotless and one couldn't have ordered a more spectacular sunset.
Husband and I (and our doggy) had a wonderful and relaxing stay. Communication with the host (Becky) was great. Trully unique experience. Very cozy and inviting, just what we were looking for in a getaway trip to Palo Duro Canyon.
What a fun find!! We absolutely loved everything about this place, just wish we could have stayed longer. Becky is so nice, prompt and welcoming. Everything was clean and in working order. The horses that reside there were a huge bonus for me! Palo Duro Canyon is so close and a beautiful place. A word of advice - if you are looking and like it, you better book it because it will be gone if you wait until tomorrow!!
Host is outstanding, Becky is amazing! Such a wonderful and welcoming weekend. The stay was beautiful! The horses, donkeys, and dogs made the property feel so loved! Absolutely amazing place to stay to check out Palo Duro Canyon. The Renovated train is so cozy for a couples getaway. 10/10 would recommend and would stay here again!
Becky was an amazing host! The boxcar was clean, and she even provided some unexpected snacks and drinks. Sunrises and sunsets were beautiful. Even though we were on her property it felt very private. The distance to both Palo Duro and Canyon wasn’t far. We will definitely be back!
The host is amazing snd welcoming. The view was beautiful. The El Capitain is unique and wonderful. Tumbleweed, horses, and pooches were like cherries and sprinkles on top!
Coming from SAN ANTONIO. TX for our 6 yr anniversary. Thank you for a wonderful stay here at your beautiful home at "El capitan". Really cozy for the both of us and our pets. Took a day trip up to Palo Duro canyon and enjoyed the nice scenic views, to come home to more beautiful views and a sunset and even smores at 3am. LoL.If we ever make our way back, we will be back at "El capitan” Highly recommend!
This property is absolutely amazing, such a unique experience to stay in a renovated train boxcar, was just great. Host was friendly, close to town and the beautiful Palo Duro Canyon State Park, would recommend to anyone!
Easy check-in, great efficient kitchen facilities, good online contact with host. Easy, relaxing, cozy stay. Great overnight/weekend getaway. It was just the thing we were looking for.
El Capitan was one of our favorite places on our recent land cruise! We had a great night’s sleep in the super comfy bed. Our host, Becky, was so enjoyable to visit with in the evening. We loved the snacks she provided, too. We really loved everything about El Capitan & highly recommend it!
My stay was spectacular. 1000/10. The pictures doesn't capture the beauty of this stay. We stayed for two days and honestly my stay at the boxcar was the best part of the trip. If you are second guessing go for it! Friendly dogs and beautiful horses as well. Becky also gave suggestions on things to do, she keeps the place clean comfy. she’s really a super host! Again 1000/10 definitely recommend!
Wow! This place was so fun! Now are 16 year old daughter is begging her dad to convert a rail car for her some day. And she wants it “exactly” like this one! We loved everything about it.
Gorgeous landscape, very friendly neighbor dogs, and beautiful horses just across the way.

We had an amazing stay at El Capitan. It was an excellent location near by the state park and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The host was also great, bonus was co-host Lucy the Great Pyrenees saying hi to us every morning. We would definitely stay here again!
Becky was absolutely amazing to work with. A hail storm with heavy rain and strong wind affected our visit but Becky communicated with us every step thru this unusual storm. A great host to rent from!!!!
