"It was a drive for sure, as with everything there, about 2 hours from Santa Elena Canyon. Be careful if it has rained, there's a dip on the road before you get there and it floods a bit"
"The staff was very professional and friendly. The room was clean, and it was right behind a big mountain. Only 15 minutes from the west entrance and just 8 minutes from Ghost town. Will be back."
"We would like to thank the host couple for their wonderful hospitality. They were incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming.The house was impeccable — extremely clean, with an amazing view and a breathtaking sunset. The bed was very comfortable, and the bed linens and towels were top quality.It was absolutely worth it, and we would happily come back again."
"Our stay at Casita de Chiles was absolutely incredible and became one of our favorite trips we've ever taken. Mark and Michelle were amazing hosts and truly made the experience special. You can tell they genuinely care about both their guests and their property.
The location was exactly what we hoped for — peaceful, remote, and completely off the beaten path. We were surrounded by breathtaking views of the Christmas Mountains and spent our nights under some of the clearest skies we've ever seen. The stargazing alone was worth the trip.
The wildlife experience was unbelievable. During our stay we saw deer, quail, javelina, Mexican cardinals, bats, scorpions under UV light, a tarantula, and even a rattlesnake. It truly felt like stepping into another world.
A major highlight was the excursion with Mark and Michelle. We spent about 6.5 hours covering roughly 52 miles exploring Terlingua Ranch. They showed us incredible canyons, beautiful views, and hidden places we never would have found ourselves. It felt less like a tour and more like spending the day with friends.
And we can’t forget Chula, who completely stole our hearts.
If you want peace, adventure, wildlife, dark skies, and a chance to disconnect and recharge, this place is perfect. We’ll be talking about this trip for a long time and hope to return."
"This rental is five minutes from the Big Bend park entrance, which was great for us given that the park itself is gigantic. The host was extremely quick to get back to us on questions that we had as first time RV renters."
"The cabin is very nice and modern. Had just enough space for the three of us. The living space has a great window wall for nighttime gazing. Location is close to ghost town and the park. Would stay here again."
