Exceptional check-in experience

Recent guests gave the check-in process a 5-star rating.
Casa Vista Grande sits on a hilltop with spectacular unobstructed views of Big Bend NP and the Chisos Mtns. It's 1.3 miles south of Terlingua on a good dirt road…off Hwy 170. It is 6 miles to the entrance of BBNP. The river, mountain biking, hiking, and stables are nearby. Our remodeled 1200 sq. ft. adobe house features one bedroom with a king bed, a queen Murphy bed in the spacious living area, vaulted ceilings, full kitchen, large bathroom with tiled shower, fire pit, and two covered porches.

The space
Casa Vista Grande has one of the most incredible views of BBNP from any home in the Terlingua/Study Butte area. If you desire quiet, solitude, night skies, and spacious living area...and yet want to be about 6 minutes from town, then you will be pleased with Casa Vista Grande. The Big Bend area is officially designated as one of the darkest places in America. This hilltop location provides stargazers an ideal vantage point to view the night sky and the Milky Way. The sunrise and sunset views of the Chisos from Casa Vista Grande are unparalleled, making for an ideal location for photographers or for those who want to just sit and ponder.

We provide a camping cot with pad and a sleeping bag for adventuresome guests to sleep on the porch or under the stars where the coyotes howl and the owls hoot.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

The casa is just south of the Terlingua ghost town. You must travel about 0.6 miles (3 minutes) over a good ranch road to get there. While the travel route is on a dirt road, a high clearance vehicle is not necessary.

TAXES
- Texas State Hotel Tax 6% (collected and paid by Airbnb)

SERVICE ANIMALS - $300 cleaning fee
Casa Vista Grande is maintained as an ‘allergy free’ home. While we respect the rights of those who need the assistance of a ‘Service Animal’, we also respect the rights of guests who expect and require an allergy free and healthful environment and who are susceptible to life threatening exposure from animal caused allergies. Anaphylactic shock can be caused by an allergic reaction to animals and may cause death. Terlingua is a very long way from advanced medical care.

If a Service Animal stays at Casa Vista Grande, we will scour the casa and may replace bedspreads, rugs, and anything else that may be affected.

Guest access
