I absolutely loved this place! Perfectly appointed room with lovely outdoor seating and bonfire. Gorgeous views of the mountains and sunsets. The stone buildings situated on the hill, as well as the coffee and breakfast/lunch house a few steps away gave me the serenity and community connection in perfect proportions. I will absolutely be back!!

The cabin/room was beautiful! We stayed in the Santa Elena and the size and restroom was perfect for us. All very nice, rustic ranch decor! We enjoyed the porch and outdoor areas for sunrise and sunset! Host was very helpful and always accessible. Can't wait to stay here again.

Beautiful location right outside the West entrance to the National Park. Coffee shop in Terlingua is just near the guesthouse. Sunrise over the mountains is spectacular, and the dark skies at night mean awesome starscapes.

Not a lot of options near Big Bend, but loved our stay hear. So much character and room 1 has a private bath. Finding air conditioning and plumbing is hard, but really impressed with this. Love the atmosphere of Terlingua and the convenience to get to Big Bend NP. Really enjoyed our stay.

Very cute property in the heart of ghost town. Hot water worked great, and the a/c/heater kept us very comfortable overnight even though it was super windy and cold outside. The communical kitchen worked well for us to cook a steak and enjoy on the patio. Beautiful scenary!
