About this property

The outdoor spaces are unparalleled at Corte del Norte and if you're like me, you'll want to be outside all the time!

It's a great place for parties and events and we can send our event policies in advance. Event fees and an additional deposit apply. Please contact us and we'll help you plan a special birthday party, anniversary or wedding.

Since Marfa is at 5,000 ft elevation it has an average highs in the upper 80's and lows in the upper 50's in AUGUST with no have plenty of blankets for cold summer nights!

Located on HWY 90 at the corner of Dean and San Antonio, Corte del Norte was home to the 'mother of West Texas Tex-Mex' according to Robb Walsh in his book, The Tex-Mex Cookbook. From 1887 until 1987, the Old Borunda Cafe served both locals and movie stars alike, including James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor during the filming of Giant. Now home to the corner stores including Se Vende - Marfa's own art and fun filled vending machine.

Corte del Norte is a great location!

Ideal Location in Marfa

This is a great property. Perfect location. Convenience of a kitchen plus a chilled out patio area. Decor wonderful. Notes for families or groups. TV was in bedroom rather than main living area and channel selection was limited.
