Good to know

Each unit is thoughtfully designed with a convenient kitchenette space featuring a mini fridge, ideal for preparing light meals and snacks. After a day of adventure, guests can refresh in their full bathroom before unwinding in their private sitting area, complete with a cozy propane fire pit. Moreover, our hotel-quality queen beds provide an unmatched opportunity to marvel at the stars all night through giant windows and a skylight, offering a truly magical experience. Although our off-grid nature escape offers a peaceful retreat from the digital world, we also provide Wi-Fi throughout the property for your convenience should you choose to stay connected. We are less than 20 minutes to both Big Bend National Park and Terlingua Ghost Town, but tucked away from heavily traveled roads and highways. Our property offers the perfect blend of proximity to local attractions without the disruption of noise or traffic. Embrace the off-grid charm alongside modern amenities, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a serene retreat in the heart of nature. Like most properties on dirt roads in the area, heavy rains can make the roads difficult for travel/impassable for hours to days. There are a few dry creek crossings that can occasionally flash flood, but they usually clear within a few hours after the rain. Although rain in the desert is rare, if there is moderate rain, we simply ask that guests wait until it has passed and roads are clear before traveling. If we anticipate severe rain during your stay, we will contact you to discuss options. We also have other nearby accomodations that are shown in the photos and available to rent. Please let us know if you would like to book more than one unit for additional discounts.

Loved, loved, loved! Exactly like the pictures and description! Off grid, beautiful scenery and stargazing. Brianna is an exceptional host and we would definitely recommend to anyone. Would book again in a heartbeat.

It’s all about the location! You are indeed at your own private desert retreat. The stars are amazing with little light for miles. The host has great communication and ensured we arrived safety. We spent every night looking at the stars outside and through the sky window while lying in bed. Would recommend if you want to spend the days in Big Bend and the nights stargazing.

Host was proactive prior to our check in date ensuring we were prepared for the dessert. Host gave clear instructions to get to this secluded spot. Close to Big Bend entrance. Gorgeous view from airbnb. Perfect for stargazing.

Great home base for exploring Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. Brianna did a great job making me feel welcomed and setting up the space well despite being off grid - didn't feel like I was staying off grid at all. Brianna is also super helpful with recommendations/advice regarding Big Bend - made my trip much more fun as a result. Would recommend to anyone looking for some peace and quiet out in the desert!
