Views that guests keep praising

Guests highlight the stunning views and peaceful atmosphere of this desert campsite
Ocotillos Village is a truly unique camping experience located right in the heart of Terlingua. Our A-frame wooden tents are equipped with a door and ceiling made of plexiglass that allows you to stargaze at night and see incredible views of the Chisos mountains in the day! Best sunrise you'll see!

The space
This is a great stay to enjoy a comfortable night under the stars. The view is absolutely incredible! This is a wooden A-frame structure, with a roof made of plexiglass to stargaze in comfort at night. The wall facing the mountains (which includes the door), is all made of plexiglass as well, for an amazing view of the mountains. Aquila is our smallest stargazer, with a smaller plexiglass roof, but the views are still amazing in this one!

Please note: Make sure you bring what you need. We do not provide linens or bedding for your stay - please bring your own.

The space includes:
Queen mattress with mattress protector (no linens/bedding), electricity, mini split AC/heat unit, wifi, mini-fridge, single k-cup coffee maker, k-cups (no mugs or water), rug, LED lights, fire pit, shared bath house with hot showers (2 indoor and 1 outdoor) and 4 flushing toilets.

The space does NOT include:
Pillows, bed linens, towels, coffee mugs, chairs, flashlights, food, soaps, cooking supplies, cleaning supplies.

There is no lock on the inside of the Stargazer, but has a rope latch from the outside and inside to close it.

Guest access
There is parking at the back of the property across from the A-Frame Stargazers. Please park in this designated areas.

Other things to note
Special consideration for camping:
While this is an enclosed structure, it is still an outdoor camping experience. We work diligently to keep the Stargazers clean and free of bugs by regularly spraying around it, but this is the desert and bugs do sometimes find their way into the A-frame. We do not provide refunds due to the discomforts of nature or weather.
