Big Bend Family Vacation

La Casa Vieja worked out great as our home for our family trip to BBNP. The home was a great fit for my family. My teenage sons liked having the separate casita to stay in. We had great weather to hang out in the courtyard by the fireplace in the evenings.

Peaceful and quiet

We absolutely loved staying at La Casa Vieja. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Loved the courtyard! Each night we would build a fire and enjoy the peace and quiet. We would definitely stay there again.

Great place in Marathon!

Home is beautiful and perfect for our family of four. Marathon served as our ‘basecamp’ for big bend (and Marfa) - only regret is. Or staying an extra day to relax and enjoy all the home had to offer!

Cozy Escape

The house is very cozy, with a touch of rustic, southwest charm. I spent four nights and enjoyed exploring Big Bend NP, the nearby town of Alpine and the quaint town of Marathon. It is a beautiful 60 minute drive to Big Bend. I wish that I had had more time to spend on the very private outside patio, enjoying the dark sky. The house was very comfortable, adequately equipped, clean and safe.

What a Perfect Place to Stay

This house is so charming. It is exactly as advertised and the host was very responsive and helpful . We would definitely stay here again. The location of the house was perfect for going to Big Bend, Terlingua and Alpine. Marathon is a charming little town with very friendly people. The Gage hotel was an awesome night spot. The French Grocer was perfect for anything we forgot to bring.
