Spend the night in this blast-from-the past 1930's Shot Gun House

Spend the night in this blast-from-the past 1930's Shot Gun House: A cozy house with history, character and style. The casita is Situated in a peaceful neighborhood within a mile of historic downtown Canyon.

Having been founded in the lean 1930's, the Castia was built with conservation of lumber in mind. It's shiplap ceiling is noticably lower than average, and there are no doors between the main three rooms, only doorways. A humble cottage for humble times.

The Canyon Casita was a safe haven for us in a jam-packed week. The yard for our little dog was the icing on the cake. We would definitely recommend it.

Peaceful Stay

We came to town to visit family for Thanksgiving and stayed in this charming home with our 2 kids and small pup. The house was a lovely little place where our family could recharge at the end of the day and enjoy some down time. Love the decor and the little framed explanation about Shotgun Houses. :)

Great place for folks visiting Palo Duro with a dog

This place is located in a little neighborhood near to anything one might need during a stay. We used the place as a jumping off point for a few days of Palo Duro exploration. Our husky approved of the yard. I thought the place was charming.

Great cozy spot

The house worked great for our trip. The yard was big and the neighborhood was quiet. I was surprised how low the ceiling was, my husband is 6’5 and he had maybe an inch or two- tall people be careful 😁 very comfy bed and close to the canyon and Amarillo. Will stay again.

My favorite place!

I somehow always mess things up when I book but the women who owns this place is very nice and understanding. I sleep the best here then any hotel. It’s by far my favorite little house! I’ll be back to this area in a year and I’ll book again without question. Hopefully this time I don’t mess up the booking lol
