Balcony time was the highlight of our trip

My husband and I stayed here for four nights. What a great house! We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Marfa. It's so unique and the art throughout is wonderful. The beds were comfy. The towels are better than the ones I have at home.We spent a lot of time in the morning and evening sitting on the balcony. It was truly a highlight of the trip for us. The sunsets are spectacular and the breeze in the morning, along with all of the bird activity, was just lovely.

Marfa 2.0

This was our second time at the Hill House. We stayed ten years ago when our daughter was a teen. Now she works in Big Bend and we knew when we were planning to visit that we had to stay in Hill House again. What a magical and unique place. The house is perfectly situated to visit Big Bend, Davis Mountains, galleries in Marfa - whatever you fancy. And it is a perfect place to relax in the evening with wine, family and friends. The host was responsive and helpful, the house was clean and comfortable, and the decor is stunning. This is the perfect home base for your west Texas visit. Thank you for a perfect reunion!

Unique and perfect!

The stargazing at night is truly the highlight of this property. It will take your breath away! The house is well appointed with unique art and decor which truly gives you the Marfa experience. sipping coffee on the balcony and watching the butterflies dance in the garden was a delight every morning. Be prepared for the stairs, but once you are in the house, you will have everything at your fingertips. We also were able to walk to most places in town, which was quite convenient. We will book this property again!

Consummate Marfa Experience

Gorgeous, clean house with Marfa-appropriate quirkiness. Loved the sunset views, high quality furnishings and landscape architecture. Only note is that downstairs "cave" room bunk beds are short mattresses that would be best for kids or people under 6'.

Nice Place to Stay

It's a good place to stay for a few nights. Private parking is nice. The location is easy to get in and out of. The kitchen is well-stocked and the view is beautiful. The AC was a little hard to find because it was hidden behind two doors. The beds were comfortable. The only drawback is sharing a long bathroom with 2 boys - would have been nice to have the toilet a little more secluded but it was only a couple of nights. The property is really nice.

Marfa At Its Best

Terrific house. Better than the photo's. Great value. Great views. Elegant, wonderful vibe. Can see sunsets over the whole town. Private. Clean. Easy in and out. Owner is laid back and communicative. We had 3 adults and there was plenty of room. 4 adults plus a couple of kids would be easy. Plenty of parking. No TV but you don't need it: you're in Marfa, turn off the TV!! Internet is strong enough to stream all you need off a computer if you need video entertainment. I travel a lot and use VRBO a lot and this may have been the best place I've stayed in for the price. Will definitely try to rent it again.

Wonderful art-filled home in walkable location

We three adult women loved our stay. The house is cozy and comfortable with lovely views, and the art is great. We walked all over town from this location, although some might choose to drive. Please note that there are a number of steps -- no problem for us, but could be for some. Also, the 3rd bedroom is downstairs through a separate entrance. This can be a good thing if you want privacy, but we chose to double up in the upstairs room with twin beds so no one had to be lonely downstairs. Highly recommend staying here!

Marfa At It’s Best

This property represents the ultimate vibe you want and expect while visiting Marfa! This home has great art and a porch that allows you to enjoy a great view of the town as the sun sets. The evening lights showcase this property in a magical way! The home sits right on the edge of town yet is still within walking distance to all the wonderful galleries Marfa offers. There is a handy general store right across the street. This “House On The Hill” offered every feature we were looking for and reflects the pride the owners have taken to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Our daughter was getting married in Marfa and this home was used as a backdrop for a great photo shoot! Loved it!!!

Exceptional!

This is our second time in Marfa and the first time we stay at this rental. We plan on staying here again. The interior and exterior are both charming and relaxing and provide the ambiance of a true getaway. My teenage boys had the space they needed. Upon entering the rental the radio was tuned to Marfa's local station that we now listen to back home. The art and layout of the rental are one of a kind. Great big shower with good shower spray pressure. My husband and son both used the outdoor shower. Comfy beds and all the amenities you need. Lush garden with an abundant amount of butterflies. Our gracious host answered my questions in a timely manner.

First Trip to Marfa

The Hill House was a perfect choice for our first trip to Marfa. The location is right outside of downtown, we could easily bike/walk anywhere. The deck overlooking Marfa was the perfect end to each day. The history of the house itself and the local art inside made it feel as if you were staying in one of the local galleries. Robert was wildly responsive and has thought of everything. Can;t imagine we'd ever stay anywhere else while in Marfa.

Artsy Home

We loved staying at Hill House! The beds were comfortable and the house was loaded with artwork. The kids loved the bunk beds -ish. We had fun playing games by the fire. It does need a deep cleaning. There were a lot of spiderwebs and dust, but it was not too big of a deal. Definitely recommend!
