The Birdhouse in Texas - Try Us in a Small Town!

You won’t forget the wide open spaces or this rustic, tiny Birdhouse in small town Claude, Texas. Claude is where Paul Newman's "Hud" was filmed, & it sits on a flat prairie that suddenly drops into the 2nd biggest canyon in the US--Palo Duro Canyon. Tour the State Park, explore trails & caves at Merus Adventure Park, or watch bison grazing nearby. You'll be just a few miles from Amarillo with its HUGE steaks & Cadillac Ranch. Or just relax in the quiet & count the brilliant stars at night.

Our brand new tiny home has everything for a comfortable stay--kitchen with all the amenities, like coffee & tea fixins, snacks, toaster oven/air fryer, full fridge & freezer, hot plate, microwave, all the utensils, etc. It has a comfy queen-size memory foam bed, extra bedding & pillows, roomy shower, desk with lots of charging stations, dining table, reading chair that rocks with books to browse, closet with hangers, lighted makeup mirror & full-length mirror, blackout curtains. Owners live across the street, so you have privacy, but we're here if you need something.

Our welcome book highlights things to see & do within driving distance - minor league baseball, antiquing, shopping, museums, national monuments, historic sites, and eating. Or simply walk about town enjoying life as it was a few decades ago. You'll want to come back for the cleanest air and water, most amazing vistas, and friendliest people you'll ever meet. Welcome to Claude, Texas, and the Birdhouse!

The Birdhouse was exceptional!
I had so much fun staying at this house while visiting Merus Adventure Park. I was like staying at a very nice hotel but with an actual home feeling. Looking forward to future visits.
