50 th anniversary trip

Sunshine Casita is a clean, stocked, comfortable home to stay and enjoy the Palo Duro Canyon area. We explored the Canyon and area during the day and it was great to sit on the front or back porches to enjoy the evenings or coffee in the mornings. We enjoyed watching the cows and horses in surrounding pastures. We felt like we were part of Texas!!

We and our kids loved it. Had to book for our return trip.

We really enjoyed our stay. We stopped on the way to Colorado. Our kids requested us to stay again on the return trip. The beds were comfy and the place was very relaxing.

Good times

Clean and comfortable. Just what we were looking for, to get away from Dallas. Palo Duro was shut down due to rain. So we improvised in Canyon. Saw a show at the university. Hiked at Cap Rock instead. Watched the cows and a jackrabbit from the back porch. We would stay here again.

Sibling trip stay

Stayed overnight on our way back from a sibling trip. My brother enjoyed watching the sunrise, it was a very peaceful location. Welcoming decor and a great vibe. Just what we needed to help us along our way. A great place indeed!

Great location outside of town

Great location. Nice, clean, cozy cabin with all the amenities necessary for a wonderful stay. Canyon is a great small town and close to Palo Duro Canyon. Definitely close enough to Amarillo if that is your desire. Plenty of things to do in and around Canyon and places to eat.

West Texas Experience

We really enjoyed this nice, comfy home. It helped that there was a washer and dryer, because we had just picked our two grandkids up from church camp, on our way to Colorado and their clothes needed a good washing! Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to be away from he hustle and bustle of the city.

A Hidden Gem

Sunshine Casita is a hidden gem in Canyon. It was such a wonderful place to stop on our trip. The house was clean and had all the things that one would need. The back porch has a swing that allows you to sit at night and look at the stars. We spent a few hours out there listening to music, watched a storm move through and then enjoyed the stars. We will definitely be back!

Great stay

We enjoyed staying in Sunshine Casita. We were in town to watch our son march in Drum Corp Internationals West TX Drums. The location is just outside town but close to everything. We enjoyed getting up early and hiking in Palo Duro Canyon and seeing Cadillac Ranch and Amarillo. The Casita is cute and clean, with a great kitchen and bathroom. The beds are comfy with tons of pillows. We enjoyed grilling on the back patio and night and watching the sunrise in the morning. Thank you for a great stay!

You will love this place

The photos do not do it justice. You can tell a lot of pride and thought went into the design and decor of this home. No skimping or cheap contractor grade materials. No issues with anything at all...shower was great, beds were comfortable, AC and heating worked, all in a quiet and safe area where the homes have acreage and animals. We were on the go quite a bit during our stay and didn't spend as much time enjoying our accommodations as we would have liked. I'd definitely come back again.
