•INSIDE FEATURES•

The living room area is furnished with a loveseat and a coffee table. Tucked away in the coffee table cubbies, you’ll find a few of our favorite books and board games, as well as an extra cozy throw blanket. There is also an acoustic guitar and a telescope for more entertainment.

The kitchenette is equipped with a dual burner propane stove top and mini fridge/freezer. Dishes, cookware, some spices, coffee and teas are provided. There is a breakfast bar inside and a picnic table outside for dining. A Berkey water filter is provided to filter water for drinking and is easily filled from the kitchen faucet.

The bedroom features a memory foam queen-size bed complete with bedding and pillows.

In the full private bathroom, you’ll find towels and toiletries to meet your needs. Please note that you must use the trashcan provided to dispose of all toilet paper and toiletry items to avoid clogging the system.

•OUTSIDE•
The casita is situated on 10 acres of open land, inviting you to explore and immerse yourself in nature. As you wander around, keep an eye out for fascinating rocks and fossils.

There is a fire pit and anti-gravity chairs that fully recline to provide the ultimate night sky viewing. There is also a disc golf basket with discs to practice your throws while you grill.

Remember to bring your own wood, charcoal, and lighter fluid!

•OFF GRID•
This is an off grid home that is powered by the sun. That being said it does have limitations; please do not expect to charge your electric car. In the event of excessive cloudy weather we do have an alternative method to charge the batteries.

•WATER CONSERVATION•
This is the Chihuahuan Desert, water is scarce and of utmost importance. We collect all of our water during monsoon season. You have to conserve water if you stay here. It's as easy as turning the faucet off while you brush your teeth and taking quick showers.

•FIRE SAFETY•
Fire extinguishers are located under the kitchen sink and on the center post outside. If you have a camp fire please be mindful of fire safety. Do not have a fire if winds are high. The desert is a dry place and fires can spread very easily and very quickly. NEVER leave a fire unattended and be sure to EXTINGUISH all flames when you are finished.

•HELPFUL THINGS TO KNOW•
-This is a dark remote area; we recommend planning your trip to arrive before dark. Google Maps will take you right to it!
-Cellular service is scarce out here. If you are using gps be sure to set it up while you have service.
-There is a grocery store in Alpine and in Study Butte. All stores close at 9pm or earlier.
-There is only a handful of restaurants here. During peak season the wait for a table can easily exceed 2hrs.
-Headlamps are provided for navigating the property at night.
-This property shares 10 acres with its sister property, El Coyote Terlingua - Turtle Mountain. There is plenty of space in-between units and a privacy wall to ensure you experience the solitude that our space provides.

This property’s serenity was true to its name. Very nice and modern accommodations. The property was close enough to the highway to be near to Big Bend and was far enough to be peaceful. The grill, smoker and fire pit were perfect for cool nights outdoors looking at the stars!

Perfect getaway

The casita was a very cool and unique experience. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating. Follow their instructions for smooth navigation! We enjoyed eating in Terlingua and visiting the Star Light Theatre shop. We had a great time at Big Bend for our first time. We did the Lost Mine trail which was very worth it. Due to the rare cloud cover we missed out on stargazing, but we got to be above the clouds at the top of our hike. We can’t wait to come back and star gaze from the casita.

Ein unvergesslicher Aufenthalt

Wir hatten zwei unvergessliche Tage in dieser Unterkunft. Alles war sehr gepflegt und sauber und der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin (per Mail) war sehr freundlich und verbindlich. Insbesondere die Nächte mit der absoluten Stille und dem großartigen Sternenhimmel werden wir nicht vergessen. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit.

About the host

Hosted by Celina Velez

Host profile image
I am honored to call Terlingua and the Big Bend area my home. MY husband and I spend our time out here exploring everything this magical place has to offer. From hiking the infinite trails, kayaking the Rio Grande and cruising all the back country roads. When we want to take it easy we take a seat on the porch in the Terlingua Ghost Town to enjoy the views, stories and music.

Why they chose this property

This casita has been one of the biggest projects Zach and I have taken on together. We built this casita from an empty shipping container over the course of a year with the help of some skilled friends. We are so excited to get to share all of our hard work with people looking to enjoy the solitude and wonder of the Big Bend. Check out our social media to see our journey from beginning to end!
