Terlingua Creek Porch House

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.

Perfect location for all the trails we did. You don’t need to bring anything with you. Kitchen has everything you would ever need. Even though it was hot in the evening we still built our camp fire.

Terlingua Creek Porch House Stay

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.

Great location when visiting Big Bend

Property worked great for 3 adults. Location was great and property had everything we needed. Appreciated the prior arrival instructions as Terilingua groceries and gas options are very limited.

Great budget option

This was a good place for us to stay and I’d stay there again given the same circumstances. There are some rough edges and differed maintenance that would be good to do but if you are ok with a place that isn’t perfect then feel comfortable booking.

Great visit

The Creek house was exactly as listed. The porch alone is worth the stay with great views of Terlingua Creek. We enjoyed evenings with the fire pit and sky views. Exactly what we need in the desert, nothing fancy but comfortable and easy access to BBNP.

Terlingua Creek Time

The house was clean, well -equipped, and the plumbing worked! Two bathrooms was a bonus for 4 senior brothers. The location was perfect for hiking in Big Bend and visiting friends' graves in the Terlingua Ghost Town Cemetery.

Spent the weekend exploring Big Bend Park with friends. This was a quiet, practical place to serve as base camp. We had all the amenities needed as well as close to restaurants for evening dinners.

Great house in great location

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.

Great for both Big Bend parks

Clean and cozy, at the best location outside of Big Bend National Park - just 10 minutes from the west entrance. And maybe 20 minutes from Big Bend State Park. Near the Ghost Town, restaurants, gas station, general store...just a great location!

Perfect for our little adventurers

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is a bit dated inside, but beds were clean and comfy, the kitchen had all we needed, and the creek was really enjoyable. My 7yr thought it was a perfect spot for us. My husband and i enjoyed the porch overlooking the creek and the stars at night.

Guys Trip To Big Bend

We had great experience with communicating with the owner and the check process was on point. The location was a bit interesting but the hills and creek view was nice. The place could use a bit of updating but not bad at all.

Terlingua Creek Porch House

This property was a good fit for two couples. In warmer weather it would have been great to sit out on the porch and watch the sun set. We made good use of the kitchen and it was the center of activity. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Great place for access to Big Bend

The location of the Terlingua Creek Porch House is perfect for access to Big Bend NP. The bed rooms were nice and the beds comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. A big plus was that necessary items such as detergent, paper towels, soaps, shampoos, and even coffee, sugar, and creamer were provided. The porch facing the creek is beautiful but it was just too cold to take advantage of it. When we come back to Big Bend we will definitely check on the availability of the Porch House.
