This was such an unusual place to stay. A very creative use of a boxcar. Loved the decor. Clean. Original.

Becky was absolutely amazing to work with. A hail storm with heavy rain and strong wind affected our visit but Becky communicated with us every step thru this unusual storm. A great host to rent from!!!!

wonderful place to recharge I was searching for someplace unique, off the beaten path to relax and recharge. El Capitan exceed my expectations.My wife was a bit skeptical when I told her we where staying in a rail car, but she fell in love with it too. On our drive home she said to me we should have spent more time here. The rail car is well laid out and perfect for us. My wife loved the bed pillows and linens, she said it was the best sleep she had in a while. The shower was wonderful and the kitchen area was great for preparing breakfast in the morning and prepping food for the grill outside for dinner. I initially thought it strange that the grill and table and chairs were around the back, but the genius of the location became apparent the first evening when I went out to grill. The location is shaded by the late afternoon and we enjoy a mild breeze. We enjoyed the horses as they worked their way to the fence line as the day progressed. Poppy the Jack Russel was a frequent visitor daily, he is adorable. I spent most evenings out in the Adirondack chair enjoying the sunset and the cooling weather and the breeze till the stars came out. Becky the host was great with communicating useful information, and answering my questions. She really had the place ready for guests, there was a basket of snacks and some drinks in the fridge. the bathroom was stocked with just about every thing one might need if you forgot anything. The location was ideal base close to Palo Duro, Canyon and Amarillo

Stopped in on our way to the Grand Canyon The boxcar is very cozy and cute! It was a quiet, rejuvenating place to rest after traveling. We all slept well, enjoyed a hot shower and the friendly dogs. There were horses and foals at the farm too (though we only observed those :) ) I think we would have loved a few more nights!

The End of a Road Trip We stayed here for one night on our way home from a NM road trip. It worked quite well for us - we used the grill to cook dinner and made breakfast the next morning before we got on the road. There are friendly dogs who get more friendly when they realize the grill is being used. Bed was comfy, shower is huge, kitchen had what we needed to prep 2 meals. We didn't go the Palo Duro but we have been to the canyon before, It is a MUST see for any visitors who have time. The Panhandle-Plains Museum has paintings by Georgia O'Keefe. She taught school in Canyon and learned to love those landscapes while she lived there.

Absolutely Beautiful Property This property is absolutely as beautiful as the listing makes it seem. Lucy, the donkeys and the horses were really the stars of the show. My biggest complaint is not enough windows to look at all the beautiful scenery surrounding you!

Absolutely Loved it here! This was hands down the most unique place we stayed on our 15 day Road Trip. We both loved it. Check in was effortless. The boxcar was so clean and every little detail was thought of. We were greeted with friendly dogs and the most beautiful scenery. We enjoyed a fire and listening to the birds while watching the horses. I actually relaxed here. A storm rolled in and we sat inside and watched the lightning show from the couch next to the glass garage door. So cool. Far better than watching TV. Though that was there too if we wanted. If you get the chance to stay here. Highly recommended.

Boxcar children, eat your heart out! What a fabulous find. Cute decorations, plenty of room for two, and a view to boot! Close to Palo Duro and to Buffalo Lake NWR for those who bird or hike. Friendly dogs greeted us each day, and horses were our closest neigh-bors. Becky thought of everything we might need!
