This has to be one of our favorite VRBO stays ever! We were met with guacamole and queso, wine and even an offer of margaritas! The owner was so helpful - she answered all our questions and gave great recommendations! The house had everything you could need and more - everything was labeled from light switches to drawer contents - so helpful! The views were absolutely incredible - I couldn’t stop taking pictures! Loved the sheep, birds, bunny and longhorns - and the peace and quiet! I already want to go back!

The Nocona Lodge is as good as advertised and then some! So many thoughtful details and a truly relaxing environment. Host Beverly gives everything a personal touch greeting guests with margaritas, homemade cookies, guacamole, queso, snacks, and a full tour! Can't wait to return, next time for a longer stay.

We were greeted at the house by Beverly who had margaritas and guacamole and chips at the ready! She was awesome at telling us everything we needed to know and then some. The house was incredibly comfortable and stocked with everything we could possibly need. We were less than 5 minutes from the park entry and enjoyed it tremendously. So beautiful! And I need to mention the views from the back porch were also stunning! We hit a bump in our trip when hurricane force winds and a severe dust storm knocked out power to the area and water to the house. Beverly was on top of things and stayed in communication with us. We sadly had to cut our trip short because of the storm that hit the panhandle, but we would love to come back!

Beverly was the best met us at the house and had guacamole and margaritas for us.
The view was spectacular and property was gorgeous.
The house was clean and spacious and had everything we may possibly need.
The highlight was feeding the sheep by hand.
Highly recommend and hope to return.

The home was pristine and beautifully decorated for the holidays! The owner met us with margaritas at check-in and provided us with many delicious treats which we enjoyed throughout our stay. The home was minutes from Palo Duro Canyon which hosted a full schedule of children's programs the week before Christmas. Feeding the sheep and the many birds at Nocona Lodge was a highlight for the kids as well as riding bikes and playtime in the sand box. Beverly's hospitality was over the top. She gave us many great ideas for our time here and provided us a lovely, welcoming and cozy environment to explore the Canyon's offerings! We had a fabulous time! Happy Holidays Beverly! Thank you Beverly!

Nacona Lodge was the perfect place to unwind and reset while celebrating our wedding Anniversary coupled with a family getaway. Beverly is an exceptional host, offering several suggestions of things to do in the area. A lovely property that makes you truly unwind. The views of Paulo Duro Canyon are stunning and it was a thrilling experience interacting with the Auodad. We love this place!!

Beverly warmly greeted us with guacamole and margaritas! Her home is lovely with every amenity and tastefully decorated. The aoudads come right up on her driveway and let us hand feed them - such a neat experience. Palo Duro Canyon State Park is minutes away with easy trail access. We did a lot of cooking at home and had a few meals at Sad Monkey. A great home and experience.

This home is the perfect place to stay for your Palo Duro Canyon visit. It is 3 miles from the entrance to the park. The home was clean and comfortable. It is the best stocked rental I've ever stayed at. The owner is very hands on and pleasant. She provided numerous helpful recommendations and was there with margaritas, chips and guacamole to greet us! Highly recommend!

Everything about Nacona Lodge was what we had hoped for, and even more! Beverly communicated before our stay and checked in on us during the stay. She left delicious homemade treats for us to serve our guests on our first night. It was easy to see that her attention to our comfort and enjoyment was a high priority. I so hope we can stay with her again!!
