Marfa ranch house
The home was beautiful and very well appointed with anything you might need. The setting a short distance from Marfa is very peaceful. We saw cool wildlife near the house. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect west Texas getaway
Wasn't sure what to expect but this location provided all that plus more. Very clean, upscale, quiet, relaxing, safe and the views were to die for. The swimming pool is perfect in the west Texas sun and even better for late night star gazing. We will definitely be back.
