Becky has created a most memorable experience at the Super Chief. I read many previous visitors comments about the sunsets at the Super Chief and it did not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our brief visit on our way to New Mexico. Thanks again Becky for your hospitality!!

This was our second time staying at Big Chief, and we honestly couldn't love it more. The surrounding land is gorgeous, complete with grand sunsets, horses, and baby donkeys! Our dogs love watching the other animals from the fenced area while we have our coffee in the Adirondack rockers. Well-stocked and efficiently arranged, Big Chief is cute and comfy. Thoughtful touches like a multi-device charging station and tasty snacks put this place over the top. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely perfect spot to enjoy Palo Duro Canyon and close enough grab something to eat in Canyon. Picturesque views of frolicking horses and gentle donkeys. Great get away for peace away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Host gave excellent details, provided snacks and drinks. Very responsive. Top notch host!

Super Chief was the perfect place for our overnight stay as we were here for a wedding at Palo Duro. The place was immaculate and well organized. The pastoral setting was so nice compared to the chaos of a large city. It was nice to have the snack basket after the day’s drive. Overall a very pleasant experience.

The location was top tier Texas farm living. The horses, donkeys and dogs were all friendly. The Chief caboose was just like the pictures. The sunset, moon and stars were simply amazing. The host was accommodating and gave a great alternate route back to Dallas that was much better than the major highways. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a unique stay.

We LOVED our stay at the railcar! This was a fantastic find and perfect for our family of 4. My boys (kids) loved that we were staying somewhere different than a hotel. Our host was very responsive and welcoming! We will definitely stay here next time we are in the area.

Our short time in the Super Chief was absolutely delightful! It was the perfect wind-down to a long road trip and capped off a day spent hiking in the Canyon. We enjoyed a beautiful Texas sunset with a sweet pup, and were greeted with a gorgeous sunrise upon departure. I wish our time had been longer but I can’t wait to come back to stay again and to explore the Canyon even more. It’s like Texas’ best kept secret! Our host was wonderfully responsive, and the property was even better than the description.
