Blue-Green Sears Kit House

Our lovely, blue-green house was built from a Sears kit in the 1920s. It has been extensively remodeled in the last few years and is a wonderful, comfortable place to stay during your visit to the Big Bend area. My wife and I actually stayed in this house years ago, on one of our first trips to Big Bend, and fell in love with it. We had the opportunity to come out to the region for work and knew we wanted to make this house our home.

Chic Tiny Home Close to Everything @ Casa Paloma

JenniferRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Casa Paloma is a super cute tiny house in an equally cute tiny community on some property. We were a family of two adults, one kid, and a dog and were a little pressed for lounging space but that's not really the point of this kind of rental. For our purposes of having a landing spot in West Texas to explore the surrounding area, it was comfortable and nicely furnished. The beds were comfortable though the couch could use a little more cushion. I would recommend optional blackout curtains as well. Kimberly was very friendly and communicative with us during our stay and we had no major issues overall. I would recommend this (or any of Kimberly's properties) if you're looking for a place to stay in West Texas. Alpine is probably the best place to stay in the general area but make sure to visit Fort Davis as well! Just make sure to check hours of any places you're interested in ahead of time. PS - Beware of the local giant ants and sticker burrs known as "goat heads"!

Yurt in Alpine

Romantic Yurt Glamping in Big Bend @ Casa de Marca

ChazRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Upon entering this yurt, your first reaction will be disappointment that you didn't book a longer stay! The place is so luxuriously cozy, and the location is straight out of a high desert dream. This is premier glamping with all the comforts of home. If it weren't for the irresistable beauty of the surrounding Big Bend country, you would be forgiven for never wanting to venture outdoors! Whether you're gearing up for a trip to the National Park or rewarding yourself after conquering the South Rim, treat yourself to a bath and enjoy being ensconced in relaxation. You'll just wish you had booked a few more days!

Casa Wilma solitude beauty escape

JessicaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Casa Wilma might very well be my absolute favorite AirBnB I’ve ever stayed in. Hell, it might be my favorite place on earth. I’ve spent a lot of time traveling in and around west Texas and Wilma’s place makes hanging out in the desert comfortable, stylish, and so relaxing. The fenced property was perfect for my two city dogs who don’t get to run around off-leash as often as they’d like. The garage doors in the living room and bedroom let them come and go as they pleased while we laid in the hammocks and read. The stock tank bathtub in the master bedroom was gorgeous and the ability to open the back door and feel like you’re outside among the cactus was so dreamy. Finally, waking up so close to the massive bedroom window made for a perfect way to watch the sunrise. I absolutely cannot wait to come back and spend some serious time here. Wilma and Tom, thanks so much for this treasure!

The Studio

JessicaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Do not pass this Airbnb up. It’s super clean, spacious, and will have everything you need + more. The Studio is gorgeous (the pictures do not do it justice). When we walked it, we were surprised at how big it was. Shelby had the place super stocked up with make up wipes, q-tips, etc. we appreciated it so much. Definitely will be coming back!

Yurt in Alpine

Luxury Yurt Glamping in Big Bend @ Casa Estrella

JessicaRating, 5 stars6 days ago

Amazing place. As the other reviews say, it's decorated beautifully with such attention to detail, and in a stunning setting. It's one of those places that makes you go Wow as you walk in. That aside, it's made so comfortable for guests by details that other places lack - a smart large tv with all apps, bath salts and oils etc, board games, coffee, tea, dog treats, all the cutlery you could ever need, a bbq and coal ready to go, extra blankets and bed sheets. There's also a diary full of people's experiences who have stayed for you to add to. Spotlessly clean. As two people travelling the States from the UK for 4 months, we will always remember this place as being a very special stop.
