We are on almost 6 acres, down in the northern branch of the Palo Duro Canyon, our tree filled site is not your typical panhandle scene. We are surrounded by a green oasis with nearly 100 year old elm trees, skirted by the colorful canyon walls. The four cabins offer our guests a relaxing and romantic getaway. Beautifully appointed and each with their own private hot tub, the cabins will seem like your own little sanctuary.

Such a cozy little retreat. The grounds are beautiful, the staff is friendly, the rooms are so nice and cozy, and the food is delicious. We stayed the evening for our anniversary and it was the perfect little getaway. We will definitely be back and 100% recommend!

We loved the quiet, spacious Aspen room. The breakfast was wonderful. We will definitely be returning to the bed and breakfast in the near future.

This place is a beautiful hidden gem! My boyfriend and I were hiking Palo Duro all day, and the Aspen cabin was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a long day in the Texas heat. The cabin and grounds were amazing, and as we laid on a blanket in the meadow, we were sudden surrounded by four deer who quietly walked past us. The cabin has several sentimental touches that made me smile, and the homemade breakfast delivered to our door? Absolutely delicious. This will be a regular "date night" outing for us, and we're thankful for all the love and thought that went into this stay. Thank you, Starlighf!

We stumbled upon this place while searching for a hotel near Amarillo. So glad we did. I would much rather stay in a historic location rather than a chain hotel. Super quaint little rooms with everything we needed and then some. Fireplace, private hot tub, comfy bed and HOT shower. We would definitely stay again if in the area. We even saw a family of deer resting nearby and a possum crossed the road as we left.

We came to relax and hike the Palo Dura Canyon. Great place to get away from it all. Aspen room was clean and comfortable. Opted for hot breakfast and it was delicious, Brisket taco dinner was a favorite! Candle light dinner in the main historic house was a treat. Owners are so nice and attentive to needs. Also had their picnic lunch and all the details were perfect and yummy. The grounds were nice to just sit back and relax with a glass of wine. Definitely recommend this bed and breakfast to all!

I recently stayed in the Mesquite room for one night. I was so grateful to have found such a comfy, clean and peaceful place to stay near Amarillo. It's worth the 10 minutes of extra driving to get the property from town. Being able to soak in the private hot tub while looking at the stars was such a treat after a long day of driving. I'll definitely stay here again.

5 stars doesn't do this place justice. It deserves more. The owners are the most awesome people you could imagine! The food they make onsite is better than most resteraunts. The cabin was amazing, everything about this place is awesome!

This place was so peaceful and we even made friends with the cat that would come and chill on the hot tub! The place was so beautiful when it was lit up at night, can't wait to plan another trip to stay at this place!

I love this place! We have stayed in multiple rooms and each one is perfect! My favorite part is having our own hot tub! If you have any questions someone is just a phone call away!

The Starlight Canyon is a Gem! We were delighted to find this lovely B&B in the heart of the Panhandle. Great hospitality, romantic and spacious cottages, and scenic grounds to explore. My husband & two dogs were looking for a nice place stay and we couldn't have been any happier than in the Aspen. The only problem was that we couldn't stay longer to enjoy the ambiance of this lovely place as well as more time in the gorgeous Palo Duro Canyon.

Overall the experience was ok and the owners where very nice. We requested the massage and dinner advertised which they could not accommodate. We stayed Thursday night and expected a nice continental breakfast which was advertised as well. Instead we had a homemade pastry left in our room which had been frozen and wrapped in Saran Wrap to unthaw. The breakfast on Saturday was good but not fantastic. The best part of the stay was the picnic which was $85 and over priced but we enjoyed it. Overall the experience was nice but over priced for what they offered.

I wish I could give this cute little getaway 6 stars. This is located in between Palo Duro Canyons and Amarillo. It is great to stay here, wake up, go hike, eat in Canyon and stop for a Palace coffee, go back to Starlight canyon for a cocktail in your private hot tub. Yeah you read that right, private hot tub. My husband and I have stayed in all of the different rooms they have to offer.

They are really all divine. Decorated kinda like a Denver Cabin. The beds are like pillows. They breakfasts are gourmet. They even make their own cinnamon rolls and they are literally the best I have ever had. They have luxurious bathtubs. Some of the lodges even have fireplaces! You can even bring your pups! This is a great place to exhale and relax, or get married. The owners are the sweetest.

This bed and breakfast was such a great find. I was traveling across the country on a solo trip and found this to be such a perfect place for me to unwind and relax in the middle of my trip. The communication was easy and the cabin was so beautifully decorated and cozy. I was most excited about the hot tub which was just perfect, especially at night looking up at the stars.

There was a family of deer on the private grounds at sunset. It was very quiet and peaceful. There was not much internet access with the signal, which I could have cared less about, but some may.

Fantastic little getaway haven! The rooms are so comfy and private and the service is impeccable. My husband and I can't say enough good things about this place. We stayed 1 night here during our 2 year anniversary celebration road trip and wish we had planned to stay more nights. We will be back for sure!

My little heaven on earth ioutside of Amarillo. This place is generally a more couples type of destination but I come here for work monthly. It is an absolutely wonderful and peaceful place to go to after a long day at work and an even more pleasant place to curl up for 5 -6 more hours of work in the room. It's a perfect way to balance the stress of work to have a beautiful, well loved place to go home to each night.

The innkeepers are attentive if needed but are amazingly respectful of privacy for us work people. They make it feel like a private sanctuary and home away from home. You do have to plan to go a little further out for meals or groceries but that's easy to do on way home from work. I don't want to gush too much because I always to want have my room here : it's a luxury cabin like feel with so much warmth and love in each room.
