wonderful place to recharge

I was searching for someplace unique, off the beaten path to relax and recharge. El Capitan exceed my expectations.My wife was a bit skeptical when I told her we where staying in a rail car, but she fell in love with it too. On our drive home she said to me we should have spent more time here. The rail car is well laid out and perfect for us. My wife loved the bed pillows and linens, she said it was the best sleep she had in a while. The shower was wonderful and the kitchen area was great for preparing breakfast in the morning and prepping food for the grill outside for dinner. I initially thought it strange that the grill and table and chairs were around the back, but the genius of the location became apparent the first evening when I went out to grill. The location is shaded by the late afternoon and we enjoy a mild breeze. We enjoyed the horses as they worked their way to the fence line as the day progressed. Poppy the Jack Russel was a frequent visitor daily, he is adorable. I spent most evenings out in the Adirondack chair enjoying the sunset and the cooling weather and the breeze till the stars came out. Becky the host was great with communicating useful information, and answering my questions. She really had the place ready for guests, there was a basket of snacks and some drinks in the fridge. the bathroom was stocked with just about every thing one might need if you forgot anything. The location was ideal base close to Palo Duro, Canyon and Amarillo

Stopped in on our way to the Grand Canyon

The boxcar is very cozy and cute! It was a quiet, rejuvenating place to rest after traveling. We all slept well, enjoyed a hot shower and the friendly dogs. There were horses and foals at the farm too (though we only observed those :) ) I think we would have loved a few more nights!

The End of a Road Trip

We stayed here for one night on our way home from a NM road trip. It worked quite well for us - we used the grill to cook dinner and made breakfast the next morning before we got on the road. There are friendly dogs who get more friendly when they realize the grill is being used. Bed was comfy, shower is huge, kitchen had what we needed to prep 2 meals. We didn't go the Palo Duro but we have been to the canyon before, It is a MUST see for any visitors who have time. The Panhandle-Plains Museum has paintings by Georgia O'Keefe. She taught school in Canyon and learned to love those landscapes while she lived there.

Absolutely Loved it here!

This was hands down the most unique place we stayed on our 15 day Road Trip. We both loved it. Check in was effortless. The boxcar was so clean and every little detail was thought of. We were greeted with friendly dogs and the most beautiful scenery. We enjoyed a fire and listening to the birds while watching the horses. I actually relaxed here. A storm rolled in and we sat inside and watched the lightning show from the couch next to the glass garage door. So cool. Far better than watching TV. Though that was there too if we wanted. If you get the chance to stay here. Highly recommended.

Absolutely Beautiful Property

This property is absolutely as beautiful as the listing makes it seem. Lucy, the donkeys and the horses were really the stars of the show. My biggest complaint is not enough windows to look at all the beautiful scenery surrounding you!

Boxcar children, eat your heart out!

What a fabulous find. Cute decorations, plenty of room for two, and a view to boot! Close to Palo Duro and to Buffalo Lake NWR for those who bird or hike. Friendly dogs greeted us each day, and horses were our closest neigh-bors. Becky thought of everything we might need!

Wonderful night at El Capitan

We were on a road trip between Austin and Las Vegas and, unfortunately, only had 1 night to stay at EC. The place is so cool and beautifully appointed with any amenities you might need. As a host myself, I appreciated all of Becky’s touches. She thought of everything! The sweet doggos greeted us upon our arrival, which was an awesome bonus. Sadly, it rained for much of our stay and we weren’t able to sit out and enjoy the fire pit, but we will definitely be back!

This was a true hidden gem!

I booked a stay for my husband and myself for our wedding anniversary to visit nearby Palo Duro canyon. The host was super friendly and helpful, we were surprised at how comfy and luxurious the boxcar was, I am not sure what I expected, but this blew everything out of the water. It was a fun experience and we are planning a return trip again soon. The dogs were friendly, sweet Allie made my day by hanging out with me on the back patio! I cannot recommend this place enough!

Absolutely perfect

Wow! Stay here if you can! Our kids were camping at the PD canyon and this was a perfect place where we could visit them each day. Entry to the park was 8 per day per adult but worth it! It’s 15 mins Take a right out of box car property for shorter distance to park. The dogs and horses were fun to meet. We were there mainly to shower and sleep (excellent sleep!) The place has all you need including snacks! Very clean and comfortable! Do not hesitate-book it now!

El Capitan was a perfect place to stay. Becky has amazing communication and responds quickly. We enjoyed are stay and the uniqueness of the train car. Easy to get to Canyon and easy to get to Palo Duro Canyon. The train car was very comfortable for 2 adults and 1 child. This stay will not disappoint. Lucy the Great Pyrenees was definitely and added bonus.

Shelter from the storm

We were on a month long roadtrip from New York to Arizona. We came across this listing on our way back from Arizona. Unfortunately we were caught in a terrible dust storm on our way to El Capitan. So we were unable to enjoy the full beauty of the ranch, but what we did experience was a well kept place, communicative and caring host and a magnificent view of the storm from the large window El Capitan provides. This is a unique stay and I hope to stay here again minus the storm one day. The storm was over on the day we left, so we were able to make it to Palo Duro, which is a short drive from the property. I would recommend this place to family and friends

Om vÀrden

Becky Meyring Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
After 20 + years of pharmaceutical sales in the Texas Panhandle and then 10 years managing an equestrian facility in Colorado, I retired and moved back to Texas. I love remodeling old buildings, so when the opportunity to buy EC came along, I jumped on it. EC may be my favorite so far. I also raise a few horses, try and show reining horses when I can and I love pretty much all dogs.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

The El Capitan was a streamlined passenger train operated by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway from Chicago, Ill to Los Angeles, CA from 1938 to 1971. El Capitan leaves behind a legacy of being a luxurious, efficient passenger lines to cross the western plains. As I renovated this refrigerated boxcar, I wanted to keep that legacy alive and create a space that combines the spirit of the west with modern day conveniences.

Guests are welcome to pet horses and donkeys if and when they come up to the fence. I would appreciate it if you didn't cross into their pasture though.

The property is in the "country" so to speak. There are horses and donkeys in the pasture. 4 dogs live here as well. They are all very friendly. More often than not, they will watch you drive in and then go back to taking their naps at the house. Horney toads, lizards and a random snake may appear from time to time in the summer. You may hear the occasional coyote howling at night in the distance.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

EC is approximately 11 miles from the Palo Duro Canyon State Park. It is just 2 miles from I27 that runs from Amarillo to Lubbock, TX and is 4.5 miles from West Texas A&M University. EC sits on eastern edge of 70 acres were you will likely see several horses and miniature donkeys out grazing. Although, most of the Texas Panhandle is not known for its scenery, if you look west in the evenings you are sure to catch a beautiful sunset that stretches on and on.

There is ample parking in front of the boxcar after you pull in driveway.
