I slept more sound here than I have in years due to the quiet and dark. The beds were very comfortable, including the pull out sofa.

Perfect Big Bend Winter Escape

This was the perfect place for my winter Big Bend getaway. The place is comfortable and accurately described. Don't let the distance from the park fool you; it is an easy beautiful drive into and out of the park. The host was friendly and accessible. DO follow the directions and arrive by day the first time. Once you've found it, you'll have no problems finding it at night after a long day in the park.

This is a very private desert property. Its not big on amenities. What it offers is a beautiful view of the night skies. A nice fire pit and plenty of solitude. We arrived on motorcycles and with the help of goggle earth it wasn't too difficult to find. We rode all day and sat around the campfire at night. Other than the occasional traveler passing by on the 118 we saw nobody. Theres a little general store nearby that closes promptly at 6:30. If you want to separate the kids from their cell phones and gadgets this is the place for you.
