Doves Rest Goodnight Cabin

Our most private and secluded Doves Rest Cabin. This amazing stone cabin is named in honor of Charles Goodnight, the legendary cattle rancher and inventor of the old-west chuckwagon. Goodnight took advantage of available grass, timber, and water near this cabin, and in 1876 founded what was to become the first Texas Panhandle ranch – the JA Ranch at Palo Duro Canyon. One of the best features of the fantastic view from this cabin is the interplay of sights of high and low mesa steeps on how Charles Goodnight entered the canyon with hundreds of Longhorn cattle. Located a mere 100-feet from the state park boundary, Goodnight Cabin is the perfect for the most discriminating guests who enjoy interweaving historical perspectives of the old-west with the modern luxury of a Doves Rest Cabin.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Limited housekeeping is available.

This is a wonderful property! Perfect for two people. Very nicely appointed in all ways and quiet. It is convenient to Palo Duro Canyon which was our goal. The views from the back patio are beautiful and with little light pollution, the stars are amazing. We drove and brought all needed supplies with us: food, drinks, hiking gear, etc. Unless you want to drive back and forth to Canyon, TX, it helps to be a little organized and gives you more time to enjoy the area. There is also a small mercantile store as you turn on to the access road to the cabin that carries some items. Really a lovely property and highly recommend. Can't think of a single negative. You won't be disappointed!

Amazing view and seclusion

Cabin was better than described. It was perfect for my wife and I. Very clean and nicely appointed. Bed was very comfortable. Even though we weren't far from other houses, it felt like we were a thousand miles from know where. The view was nothing short of spectacular. It cannot be overstated. The proximity to the Palo duro state park wa very convenient.The only complaint I have is it's 7 hours from me.from me

Spectacular views of Palo Duro Canyon

Charming, luxurious cabin that has all the amenities one needs to enjoy a truly spectacular location. I was here to photograph the Palo Duro Canyon and the lunar eclipse, and the low light pollution allowed a breathtaking night sky to emerge. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. It was a wonderful experience!

Slice of Heaven

Our very favorite place to stay when visiting Palo Duro Canyon. You can’t beat the amazing views and proximity to the park entrance. It is always spotless and we have everything we need while there. The hot tub is a perfect way to end the day after many hours of hiking and biking. Highly recommend!

I am hesitant to give this review because I selfishly I don’t want the secret to get out about the Goodnight Cabin. Quite and relaxing are the best description with unrivaled views of Palo Duro Canyon. Do yourself a favor and unwindin the rim of the cabin.

Relaxing Retreat

Everything was just as described on their listing. We celebrated our 40th Anniversary while here. The hosts were so kind, along with their wine and souvenir glasses they also brought us roses and goodies. The views were spectacular, wish we could have added pictures to this review. We look forward to returning sometime in the future to Doves Rest Cabins.

Incredible getaway property

What an amazing property. We stayed here for 4 nights and could not have asked for a better experience. The property itself is immaculate and supplied with everything you could need. It is such a short trip into the Canyon park! We hiked and biked every day and then spent some time exploring around the house area after we got back. Never a dull moment. The hot tub felt amazing each evening after getting back from a fun day down in the Canyon. We can’t wait to come back!

A magical couples getaway

As the title states, this place is magical and serene. It is well kept, nicely appointed and quiet. If you are looking to get away with your significant other, I would highly recommend this cabin. We saw mule deer and goats in their natural habitat. The cabin also came with plenty of firewood and instructions to use their fireplace. We felt right at home. Thank you to the owners and staff for offering the opportunity to stay at this beautiful property. We will be back!
