Perfect retreat location

The location is great. The place is well-kept, lots of nice amenities and touches. Easy check-in for novice VRBO-ers. Great location for hiking and nature then coming back to relax. Just perfect!

Wonderful trip to Palo Duro

We had an amazing trip to Palo Duro canyon. The cabin is less than 2 miles from the park entrance and very convenient. It's a quiet area and we enjoyed our nightly visits from the longhorns and aoudad sheep who grazed just on the other side of the fence from our porch.

Very Close to Palo Duro Canyon

Right down the road from Palo Duro Canyon. About as close as you can get without camping in the canyon. Nice and quiet.

Checked into a clean cabin WITH A SNACK BUCKET ON THE COUNTER! This was indeed worth booking and we’ll do it again when we go back to Colorado

Love this cabin

The Apudad cabin was a wonderful place to stay. It was isolated enough yet near people. We enjoyed the porch every morning and every evening. Our “neighbors” were longhorn cattle and kittens. Palo Duro Canyon is only 1.5 miles from the cabin and a beautiful place to visit.
