The location is great. The place is well-kept, lots of nice amenities and touches. Easy check-in for novice VRBO-ers. Great location for hiking and nature then coming back to relax. Just perfect!

If you're looking for simple, affordable, and convenient to the canyon it's a great place. Nice layout on the outside. There's a bunch of games around the place. It's right next door to a really neat little gift shop and convenience store.

Aoudad Cabin was such a perfect for my husband and myself and our two grandsons, one 12 yrs old and the other 15. The loft was perfect for them albeit the 15 yr old is 6'3". He just crawled into the bed. We enjoyed seeing the longhorn cattle from the deck. The location is very convenient to Palo Duro Canyon entrance and was especially nice when the "Texas" musical was over and we were able to quickly get to our room for the night.

This property was an excellent choice due to location to Palo Duro, ease of access, and the proximity to a "restaurant" that offered food and some groceries.The cabin itself was as clean, even with the abundance of grasshoppers and flies that tried to get inside each time you opened the door. The only real inconvenience was that the air conditioner in the bedroom was very, very loud. We instead had it on to cool off the bedroom before bed, then turned it off when we went to bed, but we turned the air conditioner on in the main area of the house to keep some cold air in the cabin. This did work out well for us.Everything was in good order, and the bed was comfortable enough to help us get some sleep before another day of hiking the canyon.We really loved seeing the sunrise from the fence in front of our cabin, and the surprise of the 8 or so cattle that just walked around the property next door. The cattle came so close to the fence that I could have reached out to touch the horn of one of them! It was so amazing to see them so close!There were some games set up around the cabins, such as Bags and Tether Ball. I had never played Tether Ball, and I have come to the realization that I am not good at it, but my husband definitely laughed a lot watching me try to play!If we ever find ourselves out in the Palo Duro area again, I would definitely consider staying in this cabin again. It was exactly what we had hoped for.

Great location. Responsive hosts to our messages. Bed was comfy. Hard to operate the temperature controls at first. Needed some instructions. Very quiet place. We only made cereal and yogurt for breakfast, so we didn’t use the kitchen except for fridge and coffee maker. No stove or oven in the kitchen. Large deck on the front with table and chairs was nice. Throw pillow and couch has some stains. Could use a cleaning on those things. Found a water bottle behind the couch. Vent in bathroom floor was covered in dust and we cleaned it. The beds in the loft didn’t have any bedding on them. Glad we didn’t have to use those beds. The light in the living room had bugs inside and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while.

The cabin was rustic yet modern. We had some beautiful Stormy weather while we were there. We love the isolation back at the back of the property. The patio was overlooking the field with a longhorn cattle. We had a few red birds come and visit. The furnishings were nice and the bed was comfortable. We loved the big soft blue towels! The coffee and snacks were a plus.

The property wasn’t perfectly located to quickly run down to Palo Duro Canyon as well as a local horse tour business. It was exactly has described and so charming with all the lawn games on site. We had a wonderful view from our deck and even had some longhorn cattle who visited us at night! We will be returning!

The cabin was very roomy, furnished nicely and was very comfortable. Location was excellent. Could have been a little cleaner and the Cedar trees blocked the early morning sunrise. We enjoyed our stay, especially the Longhorns bedding down each night just outside the fence.

Lovely scenery! Friendly owners. Cabin had all we needed for our stay. Our only negative on our stay was out the front door overlooking the pasture in front of the porch is alot of building debris from a fallen out building. It would have been a much prettier view without it there. We did find some dirty laundry inside the couch fold out bed and some personal hygiene products upstairs in the loft. We left those items where they were found.

You’re located very close to the canyon and just a short drive from town, very quiet property and really enjoyed watching the sunrise from our deck every morning.

This property was an excellent choice due to location to Palo Duro, ease of access, and the proximity to a "restaurant" that offered food and some groceries.The cabin itself was as clean, even with the abundance of grasshoppers and flies that tried to get inside each time you opened the door. The only real inconvenience was that the air conditioner in the bedroom was very, very loud. We instead had it on to cool off the bedroom before bed, then turned it off when we went to bed, but we turned the air conditioner on in the main area of the house to keep some cold air in the cabin. This did work out well for us.Everything was in good order, and the bed was comfortable enough to help us get some sleep before another day of hiking the canyon.We really loved seeing the sunrise from the fence in front of our cabin, and the surprise of the 8 or so cattle that just walked around the property next door. The cattle came so close to the fence that I could have reached out to touch the horn of one of them! It was so amazing to see them so close!There were some games set up around the cabins, such as Bags and Tether Ball. I had never played Tether Ball, and I have come to the realization that I am not good at it, but my husband definitely laughed a lot watching me try to play!If we ever find ourselves out in the Palo Duro area again, I would definitely consider staying in this cabin again. It was exactly what we had hoped for.
This property was an excellent choice due to location to Palo Duro, ease of access, and the proximity to a "restaurant" that offered food and some groceries.The cabin itself was as clean, even with the abundance of grasshoppers and flies that tried to get inside each time you opened the door. The only real inconvenience was that the air conditioner in the bedroom was very, very loud. We instead had it on to cool off the bedroom before bed, then turned it off when we went to bed, but we turned the air conditioner on in the main area of the house to keep some cold air in the cabin. This did work out well for us.Everything was in good order, and the bed was comfortable enough to help us get some sleep before another day of hiking the canyon.We really loved seeing the sunrise from the fence in front of our cabin, and the surprise of the 8 or so cattle that just walked around the property next door. The cattle came so close to the fence that I could have reached out to touch the horn of one of them! It was so amazing to see them so close!There were some games set up around the cabins, such as Bags and Tether Ball.

The cabin is small but gets the job done 1.5 miles from Palo Duro State Park, quiet and comfortable!

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It is at the perfect location, right next to the entrance to Palo Duro State Park. The kids enjoyed the sleeping loft, and it was lovely to have a place to come home to to relax from hiking at the park. Plus, you get a wonderful view of the sunrise! Would highly recommend!

Right down the road from Palo Duro Canyon. About as close as you can get without camping in the canyon. Nice and quiet.

If you're looking for simple, affordable, and convenient to the canyon it's a great place. Nice layout on the outside. There's a bunch of games around the place. It's right next door to a really neat little gift shop and convenience store.

Great location. Responsive hosts to our messages. Bed was comfy. Hard to operate the temperature controls at first. Needed some instructions. Very quiet place. We only made cereal and yogurt for breakfast, so we didn’t use the kitchen except for fridge and coffee maker. No stove or oven in the kitchen. Large deck on the front with table and chairs was nice. Throw pillow and couch has some stains. Could use a cleaning on those things. Found a water bottle behind the couch. Vent in bathroom floor was covered in dust and we cleaned it. The beds in the loft didn’t have any bedding on them. Glad we didn’t have to use those beds. The light in the living room had bugs inside and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while.

The cabin was rustic yet modern. We had some beautiful Stormy weather while we were there. We love the isolation back at the back of the property. The patio was overlooking the field with a longhorn cattle. We had a few red birds come and visit. The furnishings were nice and the bed was comfortable. We loved the big soft blue towels! The coffee and snacks were a plus.

Checked into a clean cabin WITH A SNACK BUCKET ON THE COUNTER! This was indeed worth booking and we’ll do it again when we go back to Colorado

We had a fantastic stay at this cozy cabin near Palo Duro Canyon. The location is excellent — convenient for park visits while still feeling peaceful and tucked away. The cabin itself is the perfect blend of small and spacious. It feels compact and intimate but has a surprising amount of room, especially with the charming loft upstairs.The loft is a highlight, featuring a full bed and a twin that worked great for our group. The stairs are a bit creaky, but they're sturdy and easy to go up and down. The bathroom stayed impressively clean even with multiple people using it throughout our stay.We even got to meet the owner, a super chill and friendly guy, which made the experience feel even more personal. The Shepherds are wonderful hosts, and everything about the property was welcoming and well-maintained.If you're planning a trip to Palo Duro Canyon and need a place to stay nearby, I highly recommend this cabin. It's a great little spot for families, couples, or anyone looking for a comfortable base to explore the area. We’d definitely stay again! Awesome experience all around.

The host was very helpful with all questions. Which I did not have many, as she was wonderful at anticipating and answering before being asked. Her direction was followed by pictures. So very easy to find. The cabin was spotless, very comfortable. The grounds are very well kept, with tons of outdoor games throughout. All in all very pleasant stay
