Conveniently located just off highway 170 in Terlingua, with a porch overlooking a spring fed section of Terlingua Creek. This comfortable and convenient home is an ideal base for all of your Terlingua and Big Bend adventures.



The home has a private dining room, fully stocked kitchen, living room, two full bathrooms, and two and a half bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen bed and private bathroom with a spacious shower. The second bedroom has two twin beds.

Covered Porch Overlooking the Creek: The signature feature of this vacation getaway is the spacious covered porch overlooking a spring fed portion of Terlingua Creek. Water is rare in the desert, but always in view just below our porch. In true Terlingua style, there is also a small, movable bar on the porch.



Fire Pit: Starry skies and morning coffee are best enjoyed beside our rock lined fire pit. Be sure to bring firewood. Small bundles of firewood can be purchased from the nearby Cottonwood General Store.

The view from the portico over the river was perfect for evening cocktails, morning coffee, and sunrise bird watching.I did not cook a meal, but having coffee and condiments for coffee available was so convenient. The kitchen had everything that someone would need to prepare a meal.The water was plenty and hot in the shower.We would have enjoyed staying longer at this comfortable Vrbo.

This house was an oasis after the Big Bend Utra race. The house has a wonderful outdoor patio that overlooks the Terlingua river. The house has everything one would need and is in a convenient location to the Ghost Town. Definitely recommend a stay with Big Bend Vacation rentals.

Daryl & Janet were very welcoming. The house was clean and comfortable and stocked with everything we needed... even games for us to play in the evening! The patio had a beautiful vista... overlooking Terlingua Creek. It was a great spot to dine out, star gaze and roast marshmallows. Our adult family of 4 had plenty of room. We loved our stay & highly recommend the Terlingua Creek Porch House!

Clean, comfortable and very close to big bend NP. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the creek house. The home sits immediately next to terlingua creek, which makes for pleasant scenery. Some of the buildings/businesses nearby are a little rundown but the immediate view from the porch is lovely. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen accommodated our needs. We would have liked to see a larger selection of cookware - in particular we were needing a cutting board which was not present - but that was only a minor inconvenience. Overall the location so close to Big Bend and the huge comfortable porch make for a combination that’s hard to beat. We’ll definitely be back next year.

The accommodations are close to Big Bend and all of the restaurants in Terlingua but the home itself needs a little fixing. There are neighbors in a trailer really close by that left their bright porch light on which ruined our sky watch one night. The home was clean. I wish I would have received my directions for the property sooner. We got our directions the day of our rental and I had no way of printing them as we were traveling. It was hard to read from my phone.

Very peaceful location. The porch is amazing with beautiful sunsets and a great fire pit. Beds are comfortable and the kitchen well equipped, even more so now since I forgot my favorite spatulas. Ha! Will definitely stay again.

Excellent location - convenient to Big Bend & Terlingua. Access via a nursery and "retired vehicle" storage lot - however very quiet. Very comfortable beds, lots of towels, large covered patio for enjoying evenings. Hosts were responsive to questions and provided for easy checkin/checkout process.

Rustic but very comfortable in a rustic area. The beds are comfortable, the air conditioners were cold, and the house was clean and well stocked. The bathrooms were clean and well supplied. Checking in and entering the house was very easy. Check out was as easy as a text saying we were gone. The town is very rustic and real close to Terlingua Ghost town, and Lajitas. And very close to the Big Bend National Park West Entrance.

Loved the location of the house. It was just a couple of miles from the Terlingua Ghost Town (where there are several great places to eat) and the businesses that provide Big Bend tours. Also just a few miles from the entrance to Big Bend National Park.
