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.

This was a stunning little extremely comfortable 1 bedroom to stay in. It was easy to find and access, the hosts were extremely responsive and positive. Somehow they built this so that every space feels both cozy and spacious at the same time. We just sat on the sofa and looked at the landscape until the sun went down, then we moved to the deck chairs and stared at the stars. We were looking for something quiet- to get away from the city. This was perfect, the nearest neighbors were the RV park and we heard nothing from them. There are a few nearby houses, but what we mostly heard was the Donkeys, horses and birds. It was an ideal base to be able to explore Palo Duro Canyon, Buffalo Lake National Wildlife Refuge, Canyon, Amarillo and Vega. We didn't bring pets but the canine hosts were friendly and it's obviously set up for those who do bring dogs. Highly recommend this place for a quiet peaceful escape.

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.

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.

What a fun stay - Texas hospitality all rolled up in a neat little boxcar! We needed one brief night only, but would have loved to stay longer. Renovators will love seeing remnants of the original rustic boxcar blended into a modern, updated comfortable hotel suite in the middle of the Texas prairie. Industrial strap anchors in the wall wait to be useful to hang cosmetic bags. Skylights have been incorporated into both ends of the car to increase natural light. And windows are limited to reduce visibility of distant neighbors. The car sits on a solid cement base that provides stability for the car and a large fenced patio area to be enjoyed by both humans and fur babies. The host has provided all comfort amenities like snacks (my favorite were the popsicles in the freezer), filtered water ready to drink in the fridge, blankets, Texas themed books (historical and fiction), assorted Texas state magazines, teas and coffees. The only items we found missing were Texas honey as an alternative sweetener, and vintage records to listen to. Due to limited time, we did not cook, so I cannot speak to that. The host is easy to get in contact with and made immediate adjustments to correct a situation that arose. I highly recommend a stay here.

This is such a fantastic one bedroom property, perfect for me and my husband and our two dogs. The host provided several thoughtful touches, including snacks, drinks, a filtered water pitcher in the fridge, and nice toiletries in the shower. The sunset was incredible, and the peacefulness was pure calm. Surrounding properties had horses and other farm animals, as well as dogs who greeted us and played with our dogs. We will definitely stay here again when driving from Austin to Colorado.

Great quick stay! We’ll be back!

We had a wonderful stay at the Super Chief boxcar. Our family stayed there on a Route 66/Grand Canyon roadtrip. We visited Palo Duro Canyon which was so close! We enjoyed watching a night time storm roll in front the patio. Then sunrise in the morning while enjoying coffee, scenery, and wildlife. Becky obviously cares for her guests comfort and it is seen through all the details. The property is clean, comfortable, and close to many places to visit. We would love to return and stay longer next time. Thank you for having us!
