Terlingua Casita de Chiles Barndominium | Apartment in TERLINGUA
2 Bedroom Apartment in Alpine, TERLINGUA
A beautiful property, with established "Premier Hosts" - pictures have been updated!
Enjoy a 2 bedroom, 2 bath upstairs barndominium apartment on 107 acres of pristine Desert wilderness, nestled in a valley between awe-inspiring mountains. Witness the most amazing sunrises, sunsets and star shows anywhere! See the Milky Way in all it's glory in our "dark skies" territory and from the brand new 6-person hot tub ("hot" in the winter - a "cooling pool" in the summer - you adjust the temperature to meet your preferences).
This location (45 min from BBNP) allows the enjoyment of a huge assortment of wildlife viewing - migratory birds of all colors, shapes and forms, dove, quail, ravens, red-tail hawks, mule deer, javelina, rabbits, fox, wolves, and even an occasional black bear, bobcat or mountain lion. In addition to the wildlife, visitors have enjoyed marveling at the wide and diverse array of plant and cactus life!
Another bonus is that this location provides miles of primitive walking/hiking/biking/ATV opportunities. Be sure and inquire about special excursions offered by the hosts.
If visitors choose to fly-in, to the nearby landing strip, the hosts will gladly assist with transportation (please inquire ahead-of-time).
The apartment is rustically furnished with brand new custom ordered furnishings, including queen-size beds/mattresses. Also, found in the apartment is a TV in each bedroom and living room, on-site Fiber Optic 5G WIFI, outside lounging furniture on a viewing deck as well as on the ground floor patio. A full-size stove/oven, refrigerator, counter-top ice maker, microwave, filtered drinking water, coffee pot, dishes, pots & pans, linens, towels, washer & dryer (bring your own laundry soap) and an outdoor gas grill are all provided. Tabletop heater and a fire pit are also available to ensure the enjoyment of the outdoors, even on cooler evenings. The apartment comes equipped with a sophisticated mini-split heating and air conditioning system as well as a back-up generator for any unexpected power outage.
The apartment, currently, sleeps 4 but can sleep 6 with the use of 2 new, large, heavy-duty cots with thick cot mattresses, upon request. In addition, if additional space is needed for additional guests, the hosts' original property is also available near by - an RV that can accommodate 4 more guests (please inquire).
The hosts live near, but a bit removed, on the acreage, and are readily available for information/advice and/or socialization (previous guests have remarked how much they enjoyed "happy hour" on the porch with the hosts!) and if any need arises.
The hosts continue to take great pains to insure that our facilities meet and exceed recommended sanitation guidelines.
Please be aware that this is a non-smoking property (due to allergies - both inside and outside) and that no pets are allowed (for your pet's safety). There is a $250 fine for the violation of either of these policies.
Absolutely no hunting or discharge of firearms allowed.
Area attractions include but are not limited to: Big Bend National Park (be sure and see the Chisos Basin, the Boquillas Overlook, the Hot Springs, the Dinosaur Exhibit, Santa Elena Canyon and river tours among others), Big Band Ranch State Park (be sure and enjoy the Hoo Doo's and Closed Canyon Trails), the Terlingua Ghost Town (enjoy dinner at the famous Starlight Theatre, LaKiva, DB's Rustic Iron BarBQ or Long Draw Pizza restaurants), the Lajitas Golf Resort (enjoy a prickly pear margarita at the Thirsty Goat Saloon), the "River Road" following alongside the Rio Grande River (Highway 170 - considered one of the top 10 scenic drives in America) and the casual and quaint, local Bad Rabbit cafe' located just 1 mile away.
Also, and closer to home you'll find the Terlingua Ranch Headquarters office (they sell ice, snacks and trinkets), the crystal clear, cool and refreshing swimming pool and bath house.
Note that the hosts value and support military personnel, veterans and first responders by offering a 10% discount on the nightly rate. This discount is offered only when the qualifying person is present (please notify hosts, at time of booking, and be prepared to present ID card). A 10% discount is also provided to returning guests (please remind hosts, at time of booking, that you've been with us before).
We will text you specific driving instructions to the property just prior to your arrival but please be aware that the last 3 miles is a well maintained gravel road.
