This was our second time staying at Big Chief, and we honestly couldn't love it more. The surrounding land is gorgeous, complete with grand sunsets, horses, and baby donkeys! Our dogs love watching the other animals from the fenced area while we have our coffee in the Adirondack rockers. Well-stocked and efficiently arranged, Big Chief is cute and comfy. Thoughtful touches like a multi-device charging station and tasty snacks put this place over the top. We will definitely be back!

Our stay in the Super Chief

The Super Chief is a unique place to stay to say the least. We found it to be comfortable and clean. The view from the patio and the picture window is very relaxing, open fields with rabbits and scaled quail are quite common. If your looking for tranquility this is a good place to spend a few nights.

Beautiful and Unique

We loved staying at the Superchief Boxcar. We came to visit Palo Duro State Park and Caprock Canyon State Park. It was the perfect location. Becky was a great host. She provided snacks, drinks, creamer, coffee, and privacy. We loved the train car and highly recommend it.

We had a wonderful stay in the boxcar. The location is private, quiet, and offers some beautiful views. We enjoyed the local brew and it was nice to have a few snacks also. I can’t get over how cute the car is decorated. No detail was left untouched and it shows! Do not hesitate to book this little gem. You will not be disappointed.

Big sky & sunsets!

My family and I traveled to Texas for some dog training work. We chose this property because it was super cool staying in a box car and the views looked spectacular. We're so glad that we made this choice! The views did not disappoint, you can say for miles. And the sunrise and sunsets are unobstructed and gorgeous.

Beautiful Gem!

Found this gem looking for a get away for myself and my husband. Lovely place just as pictured! Becky was amazing since the moment I booked, her communication was extremely welcoming. The weather dropped to freezing temperatures but she had it nice and warm by the time we got there. I love that she had little treats for us and the extra toiletry essentials! You can tell she truly cares for her guests and she goes above and beyond. It’s a perfect get away spot, cozy and beautiful scenery. we got to see the horses across the way as we left. We will definitely be returning and next time with our little ones. Thank you Becky for such amazing hospitality and a good experience!!! -XOXO

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.

Very excellent host. Pleasant, communicated well. I had some problem with the key pad in the midst of coming and going while unloading. This was worked out through VRBO communicating with host who communicated with me. Trick was to push on the door while doing key pad which released a bind the deadbolt got into. Otherwise no problems at all. Turns out there are no cooking facilities indoors except microwave. Think this might be noted. Beautiful views and sunsets. Good for dogs with lots of places to walk them on leash and a lovely big patio where they can hang out. Thanks Becky.

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.
