Boca de la Roca Private Mountain Lodge

The Boca de la Roca cabin is built on 81 acres of private desert mountain property (no neighbors, no highways, no noise), and is nestled at the base of our 4,700-foot mountain - in the most majestic mountain range in Big Bend. The cabin is surrounded by mountains, large mesas, cacti, and other eye-catching desert scenery. All of Big Bend is beautiful, but we undoubtedly have the best 360-degree views of anywhere in Big Bend - hands down.

Relax and unwind with all of the creature comforts of home, and soak up the undeniably best views in Big Bend. This Terlingua lodging destination was built with an abundance of windows throughout to compliment the landscape day and night, accentuating the scenic terrain not only while outdoors, but from inside as well. The cabin is fully furnished, with a clean, luxurious, modern with an aged-elegance appeal. And it’s 100% off-grid – solely powered by El Sol.

The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, a safe, and a phone.

Peaceful, Quite, and The Views!

Found this property on Vrbo when we were planning our trip to Big Bend. Pictures don't do it justice. Very peaceful, quiet, and the views are absolutely stunning. The house itself was awesome, very well designed and very clean. My wife and son of 2.5 years accompanied me on the trip. One of the best parts of this, and very important to me, was the communication by the owners via phone and text before, during, and after our stay. If you are planning on driving to the Big Bend area this place is a must!

Amazing Spring Break Stay

We had an incredible Spring Break at this property with our two kids! It was the perfect place to disconnect, relax, and enjoy nature. The home was comfortable and well-equipped, making our stay easy and enjoyable.One of the highlights was exploring the mountain located on the property. Great hiking opportunities nearby in Big Bend National Park and mountain biking in Big Bend Ranch State Park. The property itself was beautiful and provided plenty of space for us to unwind. Whether we were taking in the scenery, spending quality time together, or just enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, it was exactly what we needed.Ross was fantastic to communicate with—quick to respond, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with access to great outdoor adventures.

Quiet, remote, beautiful

Loved this property. It is rather remote. As others said, you'll need a 4 wheel or all wheel drive vehicle. Everything about the house is perfect and the bed we used was very comfortable. We unfortunately experienced weather (freezing) seldom seen in this area and were without water for a couple days. Ross and Christin were very attentive and kept in touch regarding this situation, which in our travels in the area seemed to happen to many households. I would not hesitate to stay at this location again! Wish it had been warmer so that we could have stayed out longer at night to look at the stars. Absolutely the clearest we've seen!

Amazing stay under the stars

It is everything I read in previous reviews and more. Ross was the most amazing host. We saw deer, chipmunks, jackrabbits and a coyote at the property. We climbed the local mountain out back every morning and drank in the sunset every evening. High-clearance vehicle is a must to get up the trail to the cabin but easily manageable in our front-wheel drive SUV. I don't want to spoil any more. If you are going to spend some time in and around Big Bend and don't want to slum it out in Terlingua surrounded by tourist traps, then you have found your destination. We can't wait to head back. (And somehow the drive from Dallas wasn't bad at all -- even with my in-laws and a 5 and 7 year old!)

Peaceful Getaway

Looking for a place to get away? This is it! Off the beaten path but close enough for day trips to Big Bend. We used this as our home base while we hiked and visited several spots in Big Bend National Park. The home is secluded and well maintained with lots of little details and character. A peaceful place for couples or families with older children to get away and enjoy the beauty of the area. The owners are great people!

Solitude

It is exactly as advertised. Quiet and remote. Nicely furnished and equipped with all I needed. My host was on time to guide me up to the house and explain everything about off grid living. I was worried about accessing the house in my car and almost rented an SUV. My car is an E series Mercedes which is fairly low to the ground, but I was able to navigate up and down the road for 4 days, only scraping the bottom once. Not an issue, just take your time and pick your route around the high/low spots. Be sure to set an alarm at moon set if the moon is fairly full. It was worth getting up at 4 AM every morning just to sit with a coffee and look at the sky, amazing. I'm already planning on coming back again next year.

My husband and I enjoyed a long weekend at Boca de la Roca. It was everything we wanted it to be and more! Ross is an excellent host and has definitely created an amazing property. We enjoyed some time in Big Bend National Park but found ourselves ready to be back up at the house to enjoy all of the views. The stargazing is phenomenal - highly recommend this property!

Boca de la Roca rocks!

We had a great stay at Boca de la Roca. The house is located at the top of the hill with a 360 degrees of amazing views and it is a short drive to the Big Band national park. Being there feels like you are transported into another, tranquil, world. Each of the well-appointed bedrooms has its own bathroom and the kitchen/leaving area is equipped with everything we needed. Maybe, having a toaster would be nice, but maybe it is intentionally not there as the house is solar powered. We would definitively stay here again if in the area.

The only way to experience West Texas

If you’re looking for a quiet location with amazing views look no further. The house is beautiful and has all the necessities covered. We spent Christmas with our teenagers and had an amazing time. If you don’t have a vehicle that is able to maneuver through primitive roads, you may want to reconsider. We visited Big Bend National park and Fort Davis mountains during our visit.

A+ Adventure

If you're looking for adventure, tranquility, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, easy access to Big Bend Parks, and just a peaceful place to rest after a full day of activities, then Boca de la Roca is the place for you! Communication with Ross and Christin was excellent. Finding the meeting point was easy thanks to their directions despite having no cell service. Following Christin up the rocky mountainous road was as other reviewers describe, but my front-wheel drive rented Lexus RX350 made it up and down for 5 days without issue. As for the property, it's super clean, well appointed, nicely decorated, and exactly as described. The kitchen, dining, and sitting room is in the middle of the property. The 2 bedrooms with en suite baths are at each end with individual entrances. We enjoyed the separation and the space of the property. Additionally, the deck was lovely for nightly star gazing and relaxing. We lucked out with a massive lighting storm one night that was incredible. Be warned, if you are used to living in the city or even the suburbs like me, it may take you a night to adjust to silence. No traffic, sirens, or loud noises. Nothing! I had to turn on white noise to get to sleep the first night. The house is about 30 mins from Big Bend and a few restaurants and markets. We got groceries in Alpine, and enjoyed evenings at home except for one night at the Long Draw Pizza, which was excellent. I would highly recommend this property as your home base in Big Bend.

Unique Experience

We were met by Christin, one of the owners and followed her to the cabin. Would be hard to find on your own the first time but easy to return to once you have been there. Everything was exactly as described. Ross had called beforehand to go over everything and Christin took us through the property again when we arrived. Be prepared to conserve water and utilities as it is off the grid and rainwater supplied. If we hadn’t chosen this area in mid-June when temps were above 100 during the day I am sure we would have enjoyed it more. We cooked dinner and the gas stove worked well. Nicely supplied with all the kitchen tools and dishes you could need. We would rent again but next time in early Spting or Fall when not so hot. I highly recommend if you want something totally different but nice.

Best Stars Ever

The craftsmanship of this house is amazing. Everything fit so well. Decorated like a pro. Away from the hustle and bustle of big city, this "in the mountain" get away was perfect for a GWA (girls’ weekend away). Being city girls, we were able to navigate easily with solar power and rainwater which all added to the ambiance of the property. The owners were so attentive and welcomed every question and call. Very friendly. Looking forward to bringing my family back.

Extraordinary Starry Get Away

We stayed 3 nights with our teens, cooked all meals there, and enjoyed the incredible views and star gazing each night. Clean, comfortable beds, and everything you need to get away from it all. Went hiking/touring at Big Bend National Park, Terlingua Ghost Town, and Fort Davis State Park. So glad we brought our telescope and a 4WD SUV. Only wish is that we had given ourselves more time. This home is definitely a labor of love for Ross and his family. We will definitely come back!

The cabin was very clean with lovely decor and excellent views! The stars at night are amazing!! Not to far away from Big Bend National Park. No issues with the cabin being off the grid.

Truly spectacular

Absolutely amazing. The house itself is obviously a work of love by the owner, with lots of small touches that make it feel super special. Bedrooms and bathrooms in excellent shape. Common area, with kitchen and small seating area, is perfect for quiet nights and mornings. And that’s to say nothing of the property itself, which is unreal. The views, the land, the moon, the stars: beautiful. One note; listen to Ross about the road and your car! My mom SUV (gmc Acadia) made it up the gravel road to the cabin just fine but you will definitely need a high clearance vehicle.
