Summary: Good place, very quiet, clean, well designed, has a nice fire pit outside to sit down and relax.Fits a couple plus one, or anything less.Has pretty much everything you need. The host responds quickly.One note - this is about 30 minutes drive from Terlingua. I personally love it cause I planned to get away, so if you are too - this might be the spot for you.
