Doves Rest Cabins - Fortress, on the West Rim

The stronghold of Fortress Cabin takes its name for the centerpiece of its view gazing at the Fortress Cliffs along the east rim of Palo Duro Canyon State Park, a protected six miles of cliffs overlooking the Grand Canyon of Texas. The bluff’s look the same way the first Texans saw it — unspoiled. The steep margins of the Fortress Cliffs consist of bright, banded layers of orange, red, brown, yellow, and white rocks that represent four geologic periods. Adding to the cliffs scenic grandeur are numerous pinnacles, buttes, and mesas. Doves Rest Fortress is a place of exceptional security, privacy and refuge.

Modern but rustic, this two-bedroom, two-bath cabin is immaculate and fully furnished. It features a wood burning fireplace, covered patio facing east with porch swings, fire pit and BBQ. The fully equipped kitchen offers everything you need to make you feel at home. Clean linens and towels are provided for your comfort along with extra blankets for cozy nights. A 70” T.V. in the living area makes the nights even more entertaining! Guests can unwind around the beautiful flagstone patio and enjoy the outdoor fire pit when the temperature dips. The combination of upscale amenities and stunning vistas is what makes this Palo Duro Canyon Cabin so attractive to the discriminating intrepid traveler.

Spectacular View!
We had a wonderful time (3 nights) at the Fortress cabin. The view is spectacular and we enjoyed the privacy of the property. The house had most everything we needed (no foil, plastic wrap, etc if you plan on cooking…but no big deal). The bed is very comfortable. They provided coffee pods for the keurig! We had a full day of nonstop rain and high winds so we were at the house all day and still enjoyed the view and the comfort of the house. Sad Monkey Mercantile is just down the road so we popped in for great sandwiches and iced coffee (and shopping). We were able to see the eclipse from the bottom of the canyon…not quite a full eclipse but still very cool to see! We hope to be back to Dove’s Rest this Fall for a few days.

Doves Rest Cabin-Fortress On the Rim
Location was outstanding. The view was magnificent. The house is just about 50 feet from the rim of the canyon and the view is absolutely incredible. As far as the house is concerned, I have to tell you I have been renting locations for special occasions for over 30 years and this property was the very best equipped in every area and also the cleanest. If I could give it a 10 start for all categories I would. If you're looking for a tremendously great place, for a relaxing stay, rent the Fortress property, you will not regret your decision. My wife and I intent to rent the same location for our anniversary in May. The owners were extremely easy to deal with and were responsive to every need.

The Fortress @ Palo Duro Canyon
We had a wonderful stay at the Fortress Cabin (Doves Rest Resorts). The management team was great and the entire process from booking thru check-out was seamless. The cabin was exactly as advertised and was so cozy and comfortable. The location was perfect, very close to all the hiking trails. It sits on the rim of the canyon and the views were spectacular. The entire property was extremely clean, including the hot tub and grill. The cabin and the rental experience exceeded our expectations in every respect. We will definitely recommend the Fortress to others, and we hope to return ourselves!

Perfect Long Weekend
Property is lovely - great views. Plenty of firewood. Kitchen has lots of pots and pans - easy to cook here. And better still the concierge service made sure our groceries were in the house when we arrived. Good communication on directions and how to work the key pad for the house and the gate. We will be back!!

Spectacular!
I don’t know if I can come up with words to describe the feeling of walking onto the patio and seeing the view of Palo Duro Canyon. It is simply breathtaking! The weather was cool and we sat on the patio all evening enjoying the views then watched the stars in the sky. The beds were comfortable and the house was lovely. I will be recommending this house to everyone and we will be back!
