I would definitely stay at a cabin here again the next time I come to Palo Duro. The Roadrunner cabin was the exact size and amenities we needed for a short weekend stay. It was clean and quiet. Easy check-in. Great location next to the State Park. Adorable property.

Plumbing

I ALWAYS expect and practice water conservation in West Texas. Its just part of being in the area. My only complaint, and a rather gross one, was the shower in the roadrunner cabin not draining. Even with just barely turning the water on and turning the water off when lathering, only turning water on to rinse, i was left standing in ankle deep dirty water. Its very gross. Otherwise, this was a fantastic visit. I just dont know if I'd recommend this cabin because of the shower conditions.

Nice quaint cabin for an overnight stay. Must have a timer on A/C as only on for 10 seconds and then off. Could get stuffy. Bathroom sliding door was terrible. Overall it was a fun place to try once. Outside area was nice and rest of property was well kept up. Great parking and easy access.Would do it again.
