Good place
Good place, very quiet, clean, well designed, has a nice fire pit outside to sit down and relax.Fits a couple plus one, or anything less.Has pretty much everything you need. The host responds quickly.One note - this is about 30 minutes drive from Terlingua. I personally love it cause I planned to get away, so if you are too - this might be the spot for you.

Desert Quail Oasis did not Disappoint
The Desert Quail Oasis was just that... a great spot to relax after hiking and exploring in Big Bend National Park. We loved sitting on the porch watching a lightening storm in the distance as well as the lovely mountains all around. After a much needed rain, it was fun to see a covey of desert quail running around the property! The place was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Our only complaint is that the water doesn't smell very good. Water is such an issue in this desert environment. Great place to stay!
This little cabin was perfect, clean, modern and in an amazing location away from it all. We loved seeing the sun rise and set lighting up distant mountains. For its remoteness the cabin has everything you need, great hot shower, well equipped kitchen and cozy living area space. Best of all was the front porch where we enjoyed evening sun after hiking all day at Big Bend. A fascinating place to stay.

Perfect Cozy Comfortable Great Location
We so enjoyed our stay at Desert Oasis. It is a perfect location from Big Bend National Park (about a twenty minute drive). The directions for getting to the house are spot on. It is a very cozy and comfortable place to stay. The kitchen had everything we needed for our meals and the beds and ample number of pillows are exceptional. The heat and ac worked very well. We did not had to make any changes to the settings. We enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings listening to nature and observing the stars. The shower was just right to recharge after long hours of hiking. We definitely recommend this accommodation.

Beautiful, modern, clean, convenient
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Desert Quail Oasis. It was perfect for our small family, conveniently located, and fully stocked with everything we needed from a generous supply of towels, blankets, pillows, cleaning supplies, water, toiletries, dishes, condiments etc. Could tell there was a lot of thought put into every detail. Very clean, modern and comfortable. Highly recommend!

The property was clean, fresh, and an Oasis in the desert. We didn't realize water was so scarce in the area, but the cabin has water for a nice shower at the end of the day following a long hike.

Excellent Quiet Stay
Spent a couple of days here as our base of operations while we visted Big Bend National Park. It was nice after a day of hiking to retire back at this little home to grill and recover in the AC.
