Terlingua Sky

The property was very nice with a great location for sunrise views and good proximity to National and State Parks. Primary plan was for Astrophotography which would have been great at this location except for the clouds, which can’t be predicted long range. We would stay here again.

Super clean and comfortable!

We really enjoyed our stay at Terlingua Sky! After spending our days exploring the area and BBNP it was so nice to come back to such a clean, well maintained and comfortable home. The house is very tastefully decorated and had all the conveniences of home that we needed. The location is great for visiting ghost town and exploring all of the national park. We really liked our stay and if will stay here again should we travel to west TX.

Wonderful Stay

We SO enjoyed our stay here. The road is a bit bumpy getting to it, but that is the only negative I can come up with for this rental. House is immaculate, contains everything you need except food and drink. The owners are AWESOME communicators. I asked for restaurant suggestions which they quickly sent. We loved both restaurants we were able to visit. HIGHLY recommend this site. It is very convenient to Big Bend.House is

Great place to stay for a BBNP visit

Very nice, well appointed house very close to Big Bend NP entrance. The house was clean throughout. The property mangers provided good info about where to get food and gas on the way and how to contact them (phone and email). We would stay there again.

Beautiful home and location

Terlingua Sky is a fantastic home and the location/views are breathtaking. Home was very comfortable and cozy. Would definitely stay again and would recommend it to anyone without hesitation!One critical comment is that we weren’t sent the check in instructions, including the detailed driving directions, until the day we were to check in. Normally that might not be a problem but there is spotty internet/cellular service throughout west Texas and we weren’t able to retrieve the message until well after our arrival onsite. Luckily I was able to make contact with the property manager and be given the access code to enter the home.

Wonderful Home in Terlingua, Clean, Clean, Clean!

What a fantastic little home to stay at. The pictures online do not give this home the justice it deserves, it was the cleanest VRBO rental we have ever stayed at. Dog friendly home with plenty of outdoor space to have your dogs explore. Bedrooms are large and the kitchen was well stocked with any utensils/bowls/plates etc.. It was nice having two walk-in showers. Water conservation is a must, but there was plenty of bottled drinking water for guests. The home has a cabin feel due to the pine interior throughout the house. Numerous wonderful restaurants are nearby to try if you don't feel like cooking. I cannot picture us wanting to stay any other place now when visiting Big Bend. Just the perfect stay for us!

The house and views are top notch & very close to Terlingua Ghost town (1.9 miles), about 15 mins to Big Bend or Lajitas. Just be prepared for dirt road - you get excellent directions. I wouldn’t stay anywherelse but Terlingua Sky!
