Great holiday weekend getaway

We were visiting Caprock Canyon State Park for the 1st time. Wonderful hiking, lots of active wildlife to see as well as some beautiful scenery and flowers. The location of this Tiny Cabin was perfect (2 miles down the road). It was very comfortable, very clean and had everything we needed to make meals there as there are only a couple of options down the way in the tiny town of Quitaque for breakfast and lunch, nothing we saw for dinner. So meal plan and bring things you can cook as they have an outdoor grill! We definitely plan on coming back and bringing our 2 sons with us as there is a bunkbed too!

Loved it!

Fern Cave is cute and clean, right down the road from the state park where we saw bison, prairie dogs and a variety of wildlife. The canyons were beautiful! A sweet border collie greeted us as soon as we arrived and we could hear cows in the distance. Thanks for the drinks and snacks!

Loved the Tiny House

It was exactly like the description and photos. It was perfect for us since we basically needed a place to sleep and be close to our family reunion. The grounds were clean and beautiful. We will stay there again.
