This was a very quiet, secluded house but also walkable to town. We enjoyed the peacefulness and the quaintness of this little house. It was just right for the two of us.

I've lived in Terlingua for nearly thirty years. I first came to Big Bend to go on a rafting trip, and I fell in love with the landscape. When I finally moved here, I bought three dilapidated mining ruins, and I've worked on restoring them over the years. I have managed a book…
