    3 couples enjoyed the space indoor and out. Appreciated the well stocked kitchens with basic supplies on hand. And ice trays. True feeling of into the world with no others around you. Advise arriving in daylight. We visited most restaurants in the area. They were all great.

    We had a wonderful stay here in Terlingua. We came for the stargazing and were not disappointed! The skies are very dark, Bortle-1. The nighttime pic on our review is of the Summer Milky Way, taken on only a phone looking south from the tall side of the house. The house is surrounded by a flat gravel yard so we had a safe place to set up our telescope. Even though we brought a telescope we had the most enjoyment from sitting in lounge chairs using regular binoculars to gaze at Sagittarius, Scorpius, sparkly star clusters and the Milky Way. The house is beautiful, sleek and modern with fantastic views, and the area is very quiet with perfect privacy. There are small bushy flowering plants around the patio that brought in many tiny butterflies, and the house is surrounded by an Ocotillo forest that must look stunning when in bloom. We’ll definitely be back!

    I’d like to start with how breathtaking this property is and it was perfect for my bachelorette trip labor-day weekend. My reason for 3-stars is that a very important piece of information is left out of the listing; running water relies on an electric pump with no backup generator. Well the power goes out pretty easily, I’d say, when it storms in this area (which is mentioned on sign in the house when you arrive but not on the listing when booking). We had a storm roll through around 9pm Saturday night knocking the power out for several hours, about 12 hrs give or take. We had hiked big bend all day in the heat and some of us weren’t able to shower afterwards. Going to bed dirty with no AC all night was quite uncomfortable in late August. Additionally, we had to go into town to grab coffee and use the restroom in the morning. Luckily our group made the best of it. I’m mentioning this as a heads up for those who may have kids or other people who require running water. Make sure you’re prepared!! Other than that, we had an absolute blast and I will be recommending this property in the future and just adding that necessary tidbit of info.

    We have stayed here twice and always have a wonderful time. House is beautiful, has everything you need, and super clean. I wish there were window coverings in the bedrooms so that you could sleep past sunrise but sunrise is beautiful!

    Great property! Further off the main road than other properties which gives it an even more remote feel.

    This property is amazing with amazing views!!!! First time to Terlingua. From my wife’s review Our stay at the VRBO was delightful. I had my reservations about being out a little ways not close to any other homes or people. But let me just say It worked out. The host was most helpful and very responsive. Follow what the host said about screenshoting the directions, before you loose cell service. At the location though we had service and wifi! Our navigation alone didn’t get us there so that was great advice. We were staying for my husbands fathers birthday, he wanted to see Big Bend. So we hosted the family for meals, campfire stories, smores and stargazing. Which is the most beautiful I’ve experienced. You can truly see every star in the sky. The house was very clean and tidy as well as comfortable. I also like if you leave anything in the fridge they put It to good use and don’t just throw It away. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.

    My husband, two elementary aged kids and my retired parents stayed in this house for our big bend trip. It was a wonderful pick! The surrounding area around the house is beautiful, the house is very nice, comfy and has everything you’d need. Terilingua is a great place to stay if visiting the park, lots of places to eat and a grocery store super close. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting Big Bend to stay here!
