Great location and features

This place has everything you need - even if you have kids or pets. The location is great - very quiet (except for the amazing wildlife!) and close to Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Furniture is comfortable and everything in the house is labeled for convenience. The garage is a nice bonus, because you don't have to leave your car in the heat. Our pups really enjoyed the fenced back yard (note: coyotes are very bold - make sure to keep an eye on smaller pets) This is the best vacation rental we have had yet!

Everything and more!

This has to be one of our favorite VRBO stays ever! We were met with guacamole and queso, wine and even an offer of margaritas! The owner was so helpful - she answered all our questions and gave great recommendations! The house had everything you could need and more - everything was labeled from light switches to drawer contents - so helpful! The views were absolutely incredible - I couldn’t stop taking pictures! Loved the sheep, birds, bunny and longhorns - and the peace and quiet! I already want to go back!

The Nocona Lodge is as good as advertised and then some! So many thoughtful details and a truly relaxing environment. Host Beverly gives everything a personal touch greeting guests with margaritas, homemade cookies, guacamole, queso, snacks, and a full tour! Can't wait to return, next time for a longer stay.

Wonderful home and breathtaking view.

Nocona Lodge was a perfect place to stay for our visit to Palo Duro Canyon. We had a great view of the canyon and the park was very close so that we visited every day to hike the various trails. The home has everything you could ever need in the kitchen and otherwise for a stay away from home. Thanks to our hosts for sharing their home.
