Great location for getting to state park and into town. Peaceful spot. House was perfect for our needs- inside very nice modern amenities. Would definitely stay there again.
Great stay! Plenty of kitchen basics to cook with, they even supplied some k cups :) nice access to washer/dryer. Great location, within 20min of palo duro! Check in/out was super smooth process! We will be back!
This was an amazing home away from home! Very inviting and cozy. Everything was clean, and the owners have everything you could need on site. We loved the colorful decor, and the sunrises and sunsets were something to behold! Very nice outdoor amenities.Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us. Rue & Deb
Perfect stay! Such an adorable property and we were greeted with cookies and beautiful deer in the yard. We loved every minute. The town is adorable and there are so many great places to visit nearby.
Great place to relax and enjoy the West Texas big sky! Comfortable and close enough to town to get there quickly!

We had a lovely time at the Sunshine Casita. If you’re planning to cook, like we were, the kitchen utensils/equipment was a bit lacking…I.e: no can opener, wine opener, spatulas, etc. Other than that we enjoyed it. The decor is darling and don’t miss the beautiful sunrise.
My sweet wife loved the bed, bathroom, and the back porch. We've stayed in 5 other properties during this trip and this one is hands down the BEST! Beautiful, clean, cozy, comfortable, AND convenient. Will try to stay here again in the future.
Excellent stay all the way around. Tje casita was spotless, extremely well stocked (bath and kitchen) and furnishings were comfortable. Plenty of hot water and cold air. Owner was quick to respond and very accommodating. Can't say enough good things about this property.
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.
We had a good experience at Sunshine Casita. It is a quiet area and close to Palo Dura Canyon. We were there to see the canyon but found the town of Canyon quaint. The Casita was clean, nicely decorated and had all amenities listed. We loved sitting on the back porch swing watching the sunrise and late afternoon relaxing after a long day of hiking.
Location was nice, close to Palo Duro Canyon. House was decorated beautifully. Bed was comfortable. Laundry facilities were convenient. More insects than I preferred!
The Sunshine Casita was a bright, cozy, and peaceful location for a quick visit to West Texas. Cleanliness was top notch and accommodations were as advertised. There was a communication glitch with the arrival instructions not arriving by check in time, but the host was quick to respond when asked.
The home was clean, comfortable, & located in a quiet safe area. Beds were comfortable. Shampoo, conditioner, & body wash were provided. Would stay here again.

Very lovely and totally equipped -plus charming and comfortable- highly recommend for a visit to Palo Duro Canyon and downtown Canyon Texas!
This house is so cute and just as described! Easy to get to from town or The canyon! We only stayed one night during our trip out west but the house was a perfect place for our two families to stay the night! Would definitely stay again!
This was our best VRBO experience yet! This place is really nice, out of the city but close to everything. Really enjoyed our stay and the host was a great communicator!
