This is an amazing property on 44 acres on the rim of one of the Palo Dura Canyon fingers. The entrance to the State Park is about 25 minutes away, but the house sits on top of the rim of a privately owned finger of the canyon.
The house is great! It is a large ranch house with a large deck overlooking the canyon finger. The house is well decorated and has a large great room/kitchen area.
The owner's father lives in a second wing of the house. Danny was a nice guy, and was very helpful when we asked. Danny will leave you alone, unless you need information or recommendations for places to eat. We all enjoyed talking with him.
The kitchen is stocked with all the pots and pans you need to cook at the house. The indoor and outdoor fireplaces had plenty of firewood. House has washer/dryer, dishwasher, and a nice big refrigerator.
We learned that the owners are new to VRBO, so they haven't prepared all the usual information binders. We had 4 adults over 60 in our group, and we are all too technically challenged to figure out how to use three remotes for one TV. Some laminated TV instruction pages might have been helpful, as well as the usual loose leaf binder explaining about the well, septic tank, trash, washing machine, ice machine, feeding the deer, local Bar Z winery, places to eat, plus any policies (like pull or don't pull sheets before you go).
The owner or property manager didn't give us the exact location until days before we arrived. This made us nervous, as this is very unusual in our experience. We like to do a Google map view of the house and area before we make a reservation, but we took a chance anyway.
Bottom line, this is a great house on an amazing piece of property. We highly recommend that you rent this place if you ever go to Palo Dura Canyon.
