Terlingua Nights Cabins

Just don't do it. The rooms advertised they slept 4 people but there was only one bed. The worst part of our trip was our stay here. We had people sleeping on the floor because everywhere else was fully booked, even though this host had cottages available. She refused to even offer a discount after her misleading advertisement. The bed was not even attached to the headboard and the bathroom door was on a slide that didn't work. My husband was the only one that was strong enough to close the door. Our child left a stuffed animal and I reached out to the owner asking if I paid shipping if she'd be willing to ship. She agreed and shipped it. It cost $6 to ship; she billed me $32. When I told her I thought that was a steep price, she replied, "she could've thrown it away". That tells you everything you need to know about this business.

This place is great if you like simple living. It’s a tiny room with great atmosphere. You have a Keurig coffee pot and a little fridge. The bathrooms and showers are shared, but they were immaculate and we never waited for anything. If you are a camper and hiker, this is the place for you. You have covered parking right next to your cabin with a little table and chairs for meals. Or you can you can use the 4 person table in a shared area and enjoy both east and west beautiful views and a breeze. There’s also 2 grills and a slow cooker and microwave in the shared area. WiFi was a great plus. No tv, but this isn’t a place to stay inside. You are only 15-20 minutes from Big Bend National Park or the Terlingua Ghost Town with the Starlight and the old jail and a cantina. Way too much to do in 4 days. There’s a fire pit area with chairs and you have your own 2 Adirondack chairs to put out in the front or back to Star gaze or watch the sunrise or sunset. We had a blast. We didn’t use the pool that is available at the Terlingua Ranch to TNC guests, but we met friends in Lajitas to use their pool. It was so cozy and all the guests were so friendly and welcoming and considerate. I will add that a very large person would not likely be comfortable here.
