Spicer Bunkhouse

Wonderful 3-night stay at the Spicer Bunkhouse! Peaceful country setting with horses and donkeys, yet minutes from Palo Duro Canyon. The Western decor was charming and cozy, and Becky thought of everything. Her attention to detail made our anniversary extra special. A perfect mix of comfort, charm, and convenience. Can’t wait to come back—thank you, Becky!

A taste of West Texas

We loved our stay here. We were visiting from another part of Texas, and I think this home would give folks from out of state a great taste of authentic West Texas. The home feels like you're staying at a friend's house. It's very well furnished and includes lots of personal touches like family history and photos, beautiful artwork, and heirloom pieces without feeling fussy. The beds were comfortable, the water was hot, snacks were waiting for us in the kitchen, and the family animals on property were excellent greeters. If you're traveling with someone with mobility issues, I think the only thing to be aware of is that there are steps from the driveway to the main door, there's a step down from the main living area to the bedroom area, and there's a small step into the shower in the main bathroom. This place was beautiful, thoughtfully done, and a real pleasure. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Comfortable Casita in Canyon

Wonderful stay near the Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Idyllic property, with a quiet modernized casita on an active horse farm. Becky, the owner, is most attentive and the home was well stocked with every creature comfort with a well stocked cooks kitchen (plus snacks, coffee and tea), comfortable couches and beds, and even warm blankets and candles. The family has a long history with horses, and the home reflects it in the photos, books and vintage decor. There is a porch on two sides with plenty of chairs for sitting and greeting the on site dogs and watching the beautiful horses in the Texas breeze. Relaxing, comfortable, close to town and the canyon. Perfection!

Spicer Bunkhouse

We really enjoyed our stay over Thanksgiving! Becky was a perfect host and her bunkhouse is amazing! It is stocked with everything you need and is a short drive to Palo Duro State Park. We had a great time just hanging at the bunkhouse, playing games, enjoying the view of the horses and getting visits from her cute dogs. Thanks for having us Becky!

Fantasic stay.

Really nice and uniquely styled homestead. Just on the outskirts of town so plenty of openness and quiet to relax inside or out on the big porch. Becky was very accommodating and nice to chat with. Enjoyed all the animals.

This is just not a place to stay this is a place to make memories

I have travelled a lot for work, and have stayed in many hotels and short term rentals. This place is unique, it really is an experience more than a stay. The communication and hospitality of the owner are far and above to your typical hosts. One truly feels at home at the Spicer Bunk House.

It was a beautiful property and location. Our host was easy to contact and super friendly.

This property is exactly as advertised. It is a wonderful snug little house that is dog friendly. It is locatd on a ranch and close to Canyon, Texas. Also easy driving distance to Palo Duro Canyon. The views of the wide open fields were amazing. Becky, the owner, was so friendly and welcoming. I can't say enough good about the whole experience.

Great House

This place is amazing and the pictures don't do it justice! Our family of four stayed here while we hiked Palo Duro Canyon SP. It's close to everything but not too close. We enjoyed the quiet, beautiful sunsets and evening thunderstorms. Ms Becky was great to work with and our boys loved petting the horses! We loved the style of her house!!!
