This WHOLE HOUSE is the place to stay when you come visit Palo Duro Canyon and the Texas Musical Drama "Texas." Pegg's Place is 8 mi S of 1-40, 4 mi E of I-27, in our charming home between Amarillo and Canyon. Guests call it “cozy, immaculate, feels like home only better.” Amenities include WiFi and HVAC, 2 queen bedrooms, one with TV. The cowboy room with TV and activities foe kids, sleeps 3 in a twin and a full bed. The fully outfitted kitchen, backyard grill, and spacious dining room make cooking and dining convenient while the den features a 55" TV, ample comfortable seating, family games, and a wide collection of Western and American history books. The utility room offers full washer/dryer, wash-up area and leads into the privacy-fenced backyard which is not available in '26 as we reseed most of that area. Ample parking away from the street. This is a relaxing place to star gaze or observe the daytime sky with storms approaching or leaving, sunrise / sunset, astronomical events or just a clear day.
This 20 acre former wheat and livestock farm may offer wildlife sightings such as Speedy the Roadrunner (be nice to him), skunks (don't go for a walk after dusk, but if you see one, be quiet and move slowly. They don't want to tangle and they don't see well), opossums, foxes, coyotes, possibly snakes. In the early mornings you can hear neighborhood roosters crow and a donkey bray.
This comfortable and safe home is on a busy county road. The traffic goes fast. Kids should beware of that street.
