Guest access A door code provides secure access to both your cabin and the guest laundry facilities. - Check in is at 4 PM and check out is at 10 AM.
- Please Stay on Walkways For your safety and to respect our neighbors, please use designated walkways at all times and avoid strolling around neighboring cabins.
-Parking Information Cars are not permitted to be parked next to the cabins. Please park only in the designated parking areas, which are just a short walk from every cabin. Driving up to the cabins can damage the sensitive desert landscape, so vehicles found parked next to a cabin will incur a $500 fine.
-Luggage Carts Luggage carts are available in each parking area for your convenience. After unloading, please return the cart so other guests can use it as well.
-Firepit Safety Guidelines Please never leave the firepit unattended. For a safe and smooth wind-down, add your final log one hour before you plan to go inside. After the fire has been burning for at least 20 minutes, you may place the mesh lid on top. Please do not put the mesh lid on earlier, as the intense initial heat can damage it. Once the fire has been burning for a full hour, you may place the steel lid on the pit. The fire is too strong during the first hour and can warp or damage the steel lid and cover, so it’s important to let it burn for that initial hour before closing it.
Important: Please DO NOT USE WATER to extinguish the fire! Water can damage and warp the metal.
Thank you for helping us keep the firepit safe and in great condition!

Location, location, location. You really can’t get much better than this. You are just a few minutes from BBNP in one direction and Terlingua in the other, with a general store within easy walking distance (a bit pricey but good for stuff you forgot, and also sells charcoal if you plan on grilling). It’s right off the road, but being on the southern tip of Terlingua there is hardly any traffic after dark, so you still get that remote big sky experience. When I messaged the host about grill tongs, he was very quick to respond. Cabin was perfect for a couple, felt a bit crowded when our other couple came a day later, but we knew that going in. All in all a good place, would stay again for our next trip out there.
