About the host
Hosted by Heather Johnson
After many years of traveling the globe in search of rock climbing, we settled down in the Hueco Valley. Inspired by our travels to South Africa, we ventured into self-catering accommodations. We've hosted guests at our units since 2012. We love the outdoors, traveling and rock climbing. We aim to offer a comfortable, quiet place to rest while you enjoy your visit to the Hueco Tanks/El Paso area.
Why they chose this property
Proximity to Hueco Tanks. Beautiful mountain views. Amazing sunsets. Temperate climate
What makes this property unique
This home showcases straw-bale architecture—a sustainable building style using tightly packed bales of straw as structural and insulating components. With its thick walls and warm earthy tones, the house blends naturally into its desert surroundings, offering both stunning beauty and durability. Significant benefits, including exceptional thermal insulation, lower energy costs , reduces waste, excellent soundproofing, and superior fire resistance.
