Located on 300 private acres of agricultural land just 1 mile outside of the City of Marfa, the Merit Camp is a 2 bedroom/2.5 bath home constructed in 2021 with saltwater pool that can be heated. You will enjoy uninterrupted views of the Davis Mountains to the north, Puertacitas and Haystacks to northeast, Goat Mountain to east, and Chinati Peak to the southwest. There is not another home available to rent short term like this property this close to Marfa! brbrWe built the Merit Camp so guests could experience what it is like to live on a ranch, with the convenience of being only a few minutes drive to all that the town of Marfa has to offer. The home was sited to take advantage of the movement of the sun, the big sky, and the sweeping views 20-30 miles in each direction. There are miles of private walking trails on hundreds of acres available exclusively to guests of the Merit Camp. High end appliances, luxury linens, and top-quality furnishings throughout bring all the conveniences of a luxury home to the untamed high desert. There is no need to compromise comfort when you choose our home.brbrReimagining a historical structure was the central goal in construction of The Merit Camp. The house is the exact same dimensions as one of our favorite barns on another ranch further south in Presidio County that was built around 1900, but it is located next to operation cattle pens and is still in use as a barn. The shape and scale of the1900 building were just perfect for a house, so we spent years measuring and planning how best to build a new version. The living, dining area, and larger bedroom suite of the Merit Camp have 16 foot ceilings and are in what was the main hay storage and a tack room of the 1900's barn. The smaller bedroom suite, screened porch, kitchen and half-bath occupy the location that serves as horse stalls in the old barn. We have gutters in the Merit Camp in the same exact location that the 1900s barn has them for rainwater collection that fed a trough, but ours water the Desert Willows. brbrbrFAQs:brCan we have an event If you plan to have more than 4 adults onsite an event fee must be paid and this must be approved PRIOR to check in. We offer rates for events of up to 100 guests, please inquire for fee schedule and other pertinent information.brWhat if I need to cancel Please read the rental agreement prior to booking. brWhere do 6 people sleep The house can accommodate 4 adults and up to 2 more kids (2 adults 4 kids, 3 adults 3 kids, etc), so it sleeps 6 if some of the children are small and the guest brings their bedding (pack-n-play, etc). brAre there other houses or people on the ranch Throughout the year there are cattle at the property, but the Merit Camp is the only residence. brHow close is Marfa The City limits are just over 1/2 mile from the gate. Downtown Marfa is less than a 5 minute drive. brCan I charge my car We do not offer car charging at this time. brWhat if I want to have friends out to swim If you will have more than 4 adults onsite, or 6 people including children, an event fee must be paid. brCan I bring my cat The Merit Camp allows up to 2 dogs, and cannot accommodate cats.

The house is centrally located (near the iconic water tower) and extremely walkable-- just several blocks from the courthouse and the north end of downtown. brbrThere is lore the house was built by a mean cowboy. It is 100 years old, recently updated with HVAC, and nicely appointed with modern touches while retaining its original character. The Rancher features a xeriscaped, native-planted yard with spots to sun soak during the day; offers a wide-lens view of the Milky Way + dark skies at night.brbrThis modern two bedroom is well-lit and has several cozy places to hang. The combined big front room features a living and dining room with 9` ranch style table. There are two bedrooms- one with a comfy organic queen canopy bed, the other with a Japanese organic wool cot (this is an incredibly firm twin bed, FYI). Both bedrooms feature a full bathroom per space. The house has a sunbathed front living and dining room, and a modest kitchen nook in the original kitchen. There are a few different work spots with the fastest wifi in town, should you be coming to write that novel or Zoom into work. There is a nice collection of artwork in the house that mainly features Texas artists. Featuring a Philips Hue lighting system to set the tone.brbrYou`ll have access to the whole house including the driveway, small front patio, and entire backyard. There is a back gate that is to be kept shut for privacy from the casita. The cowboy tub is only accessible May-August.brbrYou are offered a private stay, and I am a message or call away should anything arise. I believe in travel being restorative and reflective- so you are provided you your own space to tap in! Please use Airbnb message to contact me- cell service out here is hard to count on.brbrThis house is in the original town of Marfa, one of the oldest neighborhoods. It is 3 blocks off of the main street (Highland Ave) in Marfa, a stone`s throw from the courthouse and across the street from the Marfa water tower. Walk north 5 blocks for mountain gazing, west 1/4 a mile for some beautiful footpaths.brbrMarfa is very walkable! A mile long by two miles wide, and nearly a mile high, it`s easy to bike or walk to most anywhere.

Use ebike marfa for alternative wheels.brbrMarfa STR Unit 52brbrWe welcome families and kiddos, but NO PETS at this time to respect allergies and the fragility of the very soft, original wood floors we recently restored.

Link is: airbnb.com /h/private-casita-in-marfa (remove the space after `com` to use the link) brNote: these are private spaces from each other, separated by a 6’ fence- you may use the back gate ONLY if you rent both!

If you need help renting both, please get in touch!brbr+ Please note the main bedroom has an opening (sans door on purpose) that leads into a bathroom/Washer/Dryer/closet area and hallway. The guest room has a door in the same utility hallway, so it`s all separate and private without noise transfer, but we like to let folks know that there isn`t a door on this part of the main bedroom. There is however a door in the second bedroom/office so you may close that off from the utility hallway that separates the two bedrooms.brbr+ Please also kindly note: this house is located in the high desert, in a remote region. We have dust, even dust storms. We have insects and arachnids including spiders, harvester ants, and scorpions- and more! I hope this far-out landscape is part of why you have chosen this locale.

Pony up to the bar for a cocktail or ease into the morning with coffee or tea. We believe in your vision. Whether it's a Michelin-star meal or cereal at midnight, the kitchen is ready. Our sleek stainless steel fridge has filtered water on tap—perfect for staying hydrated between mezcal tastings or desert daydreams. Go ahead, press that lever like it’s fancy.brbrLiving RoombrbrComfy and cool, the living room features a chaise lounge sofa and two chairs—perfect for post-hike naps, deep desert musings, or movie nights on the lowkey massive 65 smart TV. The open floor plan lets vibes (and conversation) flow freely between the kitchen and living area. And when the desert air dips in the evening, flip on the electric fireplace for instant coziness without the campfire commitment.brbrBedroom OnebrbrJust down the hall, Bedroom One is a study in relaxed desert style—featuring a king-sized bed, plush layered bedding, and robes for lounging like desert royalty. Designed with a mix of bright-but-neutral tones and soft textures, the space feels equal parts vibrant and serene. Sunlight pours in by day, filling the room with warmth. At night, blackout shades offer privacy—or leave them open and let the stars do their thing.brbrBathroom OnebrbrRight across from Bedroom One, this spacious bath features a double-sink vanity and a large shower with bold geometric tile. The washer and dryer are tucked away here too—ready for laundry days or dusty trail cleanups.brbrBedroom Two + Bathroom TwobrbrBedroom Two brings more of our warm, artful charm with a second king-sized bed and bright decor. The en-suite bathroom has another double vanity and a large shower. You’ll argue over who gets this one. (Or flip a coin—it’s Marfa, not Monaco.)brbrFenced Zen - aka BackyardbrbrThe fenced backyard is your own private slice of desert chill—designed for gathering, lounging, and the occasional mini-golf showdown. Challenge your crew on the quirky 4-hole putt-putt course, relive your playground glory days on the vintage Mustang spring rider, or just sink into the large outdoor sectional and soak up the stars. Light the fire pit for s’mores (if county ordinances allow), fire up the charcoal grill, and let the desert night do the rest. Sit, sip, eat, stargaze. Repeat.brbrBeach Cruiser BikesbrbrMarfa was practically built for slow rolls and scenic detours. We’ve got four bikes ready to go—perfect for cruising to brunch, gallery hopping, or just seeing where the road (and that one very chill street dog) takes you. Helmets are available, and while wearing one is optional, not wearing one is your call (and your risk). Looking cool, however Mandatory.brbrA Little Marfa Magic: Book SwapbrbrOur tiny take-a-book, leave-a-book library is perfect for lazy mornings or starry nights. Forgot your book Borrow one. Finished yours Leave it behind for the next traveler. Think of it as Prada Marfa for paperbacks.brbrParkingbrbrParking in Marfa is refreshingly drama-free. Pull up and park for free right out front of the house—no cryptic signage, no meter maids, and definitely no reverse-angle parallel parking gymnastics. Just you, your ride, and the open West Texas street.brbrPetsbrbrWe love dogs—and they’ll love the fully fenced, wraparound yard for their own little Marfa adventure. Just a few ground rules to keep tails wagging and the house in top shape:brbr- Pups must be crated if left alone inside.br- Please scoop the poop. Desert magic doesn’t cover that.br- No dogs on beds or furniture (even if they ask nicely).br- Sadly, we don’t host cats. Too many throw pillows at stake.brbrWe charge a $45 non-refundable pet fee per dog to help our amazing cleaning crew work their magic post-stay. Any pet-related damage will be billed separately—we trust your pup, but accidents happen.brbrDid you know there’s a dog park in town It’s a quick drive and a great spot to let your pup stretch their legs and mingle with the Marfa locals (four-legged and otherwise).brbrCheck-In and Check-OutbrbrCheck-in: 4:00 PMbrCheck-out: 10:00 AMbrbrWant early check-in or late checkout Message us! When possible, we offer it for a $50 fee (pending cleaning crew availability).brbrIf you’ve made it this far, you’re either really thorough (we appreciate that) or already dreaming of desert nights and mini-golf glory. Either way, if you have any questions—about anything you’ve read or something we didn’t cover—don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re happy to help and always down to chat Marfa, mezcal, or what book to borrow from the shelf.brbrGuest accessbrbrYou’ll have full access to the entire house—no shared spaces, no awkward encounters, just you and your crew. Free street parking is available right out front or along the side—easy in, easy out.brbrThe front door has a keyless entry, and we’ll send you your unique access code bright and early on the morning of your check-in. No key juggling, no lockbox mysteries—just punch it in and make yourself at home.brbrOther things to notebrPermit #S207br- -REQUESTING TO BOOK MEANS AGREEMENT TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS: Only the guests listed in the reservation request are permitted at the house.
