The Hideout at Palo Duro Canyon - Buffalo Lodge

Buffalo Lodge at the Hideout at Palo Duro Canyon! Located just outside Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Texas character at its finest.l!

NEW 2023 Buffalo Lodge now has an outdoor fire pit with 4 Adirondack chairs.

We have two cabins here on over 6 private acres, and can accommodate larger groups, 8 guests total, when our second cabin (Rider’s Roost), is also rented.

NOTE: This cabin is not suitable for children under age 12. We do not allow pets.

Located on over six private acres, the inside of this 1100 square foot pioneer-style luxury cabin is filled with turn-of-the-century charm and modern comfort. A retreat for family or friends, or a romantic getaway. A bottle of champagne awaits, as well as breakfast and many other extra amenities. Here you can relax, recharge and unwind in the true spirit of the old west!

The Hideout is private! There is only one other rental on the property, our stable quarters which your party can also rent to accommodate more guests.

NEW 2021, we now have a double carport to protect your vehicle against the blazing hot sun, occasional summer hail storms, and winter ice and snow storms.

We are closer to the state park than any other vacation rentals, truly! The floor plan is spacious with comfortable beds (no sofa beds to pull out), and no crowding. There are two dining tables, one inside and another on the screened in porch, so you can enjoy your BBQ without those pesky flies. Read on for cabin details.....

The Cabin:

Enter through the large screened porch. On the ground floor, enjoy a full kitchen. We provide all dishes, cookware, spices, condiments and everything you need for your first country breakfast, including eggs from our hens. There is a large dining table that seats 6 people, comfortable seating in the living area, and a wood burning stove for winter use (February only- we supply mesquite firewood), The KING size bed is on the ground floor, next to the bathroom. Up the spiral stairs, the loft has a TV/DVD, a full size double bed and a single twin bed. A roll-away bed is available should you want to sleep outside on the 300 sq. ft. screened-in porch. The cabin is also stocked with interesting books about the area and adult/children’s’ board games, and puzzles. There is a landline telephone and WiFi service.

The luxury bath is large and is every woman’s dream, with an elegant claw foot tub and a crystal chandelier. We supply high end bubbles, bath bombs, English soap, facial mud masks, lotions, make-up removal towelettes, shampoo and conditioner. Also hair dryer with attachments and all paper goods such as cotton balls and Q -Tips. There is lots of space for everyone to keep their personal toiletries.

From the front door you can see the large pond and the stable and paddock area. Our horses, Rosie, Gus, and Sassy and Lil’Bit are gentle and their company will really make you feel at home. Due to their age, we ask that guests not feed or pet them. If you're traveling with your horses, contact us about accommodations and fees.

- NOTE: We now have in the stable a stable loft quarters that has 2 Queen beds and an additional living area with large television and Netflix. There is also a kitchenette (microwave, crockpot, egg cooker, toaster, bacon cooker and coffee pot), with dining table at the stable.

You will love watching birds and local wildlife here at the Hideout. You may see songbirds, hawks, great horned owls, road runners, quail, deer, aoudads, feral hogs, bobcats, and be serenaded by coyotes. Stunning sunrises and sunsets are included.

If you're in the mood to explore, Palo Duro Canyon State Park is right there, and the entrance to this “Grand Canyon of Texas" is just a mile further up the road. Visitors explore by car, hiking, horseback, and bike (best mountain biking around). Right by the Park are Palo Duro Zip Line Adventures, Palo Duro Creek Ranch Jeeping tours, and Palo Duro Riding Stables. The musical drama TEXAS shows in the park’s outdoor amphitheater June through mid-August and is a must see! Let us know if we can assist you with planning any of these activities. We’re here to help and want your stay to be enjoyable and memorable.

It’s about a fifteen minute jaunt to the city of Canyon where you’ll find the Panhandle Plains Historical Museum (the largest historical museum in the state of Texas). For restaurants, shopping, nightlife and live music, it’s about a half hour to Amarillo. Find cultural and sporting events, the famous Old Route 66, and the Cadillac Ranch (don’t forget to bring a can of spray paint). If you prefer to dine in Canyon, there are several great restaurants on the town square, such as Pepitos, Sayakamaryns and Palace Coffee. Bar Z Winery is also near by.

Additional services include concierge, and equestrian visitors. Fees for additional services vary, so contact us about your needs.

For your comfort and safety:
Quiet Zone. This is a quiet zone and HOA restrictions apply. No parties , outdoor music, or events.

Charming
Quiet country setting with meticulous attention to detail. The antique lamps were my favorite thing. Our 13 year old boy commandeered the attic room and scrambled up the fresh eggs to our delight for breakfast. All of us enjoyed our turn to have a bubbly soak in the claw foot tub. Comfy beds, great ac. Location is close to Palo Duro State Park and Canyon, Texas restaurants and museum. Our only regret was not having a couple more days after the sightseeing was done. This experience has been created with care and warm hospitality.

The Hideout at Palo Duro Canyon
A perfect place to rest and relax away from all city noises while visiting the area, especially Palo Duro Canyon State Park, which is only 1.5 miles away. The decor of the cabin is rustic and includes a delightful, screened in porch with a swing and table that seats six comfortably. We didn't spend a lot of time in the cabin during the day as we were visiting our son and his family who were camping in the State Park. We took advantage of several amenities such as wi-fi and a full kitchen and refrigerator complete with fresh eggs and bagels provided by Andrea. We will certainly recommend The Hideout to our friends and family.

Perfect Location to Explore Palo Duro
We had an amazing stay at The Hideout. The property is mere minutes from Palo Duro State Park. You can't be any closer! Andrea, our host, clearly puts a lot of love into providing a great experience for guests. The cabin is well furnished and has a well stocked kitchen. The farm fesh eggs were such a nice treat. We loved watching the horses graze from the comfort of the screened patio and spent our evenings enjoying the cool spring air. I'd highly recommend a stay here for a truly unique Texas Panhandle experience.

Such a wonderful getaway
The property manager is so kind and friendly. She showed us around the property. The horses came over and said hi to us while we were walking around. The property is just a few miles from both the canyon itself, the city called canyon, and Amarillo. We stayed during the cold storm in early January and the power actually went out for an hour or so. The manager was right there to help us out with more wood for the stove and even offered to put us up in a hotel for the night. We stuck it out and the power came back in. It just made the experience more memorable for us. We highly recommend this nice little cabin. It’s so quiet and dark at night so you can see all the stars

Amazing experience
Myself and two friends stayed here to hike Palo Duro Canyon and it was perfect. From the friendly horses on the property and the extra goodies the owner left in the refrigerator, bathroom and candy bowls, everything was fabulous. We went to hike, but frankly, hanging on the porch swing overlooking the pond with a tabletop fire pit glowing was half the experience. Can’t wait to go back! Don’t stay in Canyon, stay here. You won’t regret it. :)

Romantic old west cabin
This is a beautiful cabin. It has a wonderful screened in porch, and you can hear the waterfall in the pond. My son and I stayed up to see the Milkyway in the dark sky. Inside it is decorated vintage upper class home style of the old west, with all the modern comforts. It would be great for romantic getaways. The owner was pleasant, very easy to talk to and knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon. R. J

Perfect In Every Way
My stay was perfect in every way! I cannot think of anything that would have made it any better. I struggle with writing this review because there are no words that can adequately capture how beautiful this cabin and the property it sits on are. The pictures simply do not do it justice. You have to see it and experience it for yourself. If you are looking for quiet, tranquility, peace, and the perfect location to reflect and meditate, look no further. From the very private location to the fabulous amenities, it is nearly impossible for me to identify my favorite part of the stay; however, the swing on the screened in porch quickly became my go to. If I could give 10 stars I would. One of the best rentals I have ever experienced!

Very nice cabin and close to the state park
The house interior was beautifully decorated and the owner was nice enough to leave us food in the fridge. My kids loved it as the owner allowed us to interact with the animals they owned. It was never boring there and the best part was that the location was super close to the state park so we were able to get there in time for the sunrise over the canyon.
