"Contract with property was excellent. Location was spot on… close to park and stores/restaurants in Terlingua. Kitchen stocked with coffee, fridge, AC, and large shower with plenty of hot water. Would recommend for park visitors."
"Very clean and quiet area. We had a fantastic trip and would definitely stay again. Only thing that surprised us was that the casita is split in two separate buildings- kitchen and living area are one then there is a covered patio that sits between that area and the other building which has the bedroom and bathroom. So if you are traveling with more than two people, in our case we had our 13 yr old granddaughter with us, their sleep area is in the living area and so she was completely alone( which she was thrilled about) and the walls are thick enough to where you won’t hear anything outside. The star gazing is fabulous from the property!"
Christmas Mountains Ranch: Classic 2br/1bth Cabin with Spacious Wrap Around Porch. Walk to Pool.
10/10 Excellent
"This place is amazing!! The house is clean and comfortable with all the amenities, but the VIEW from the wraparound porch…pictures don’t do it justice. They also have this sweet little trail behind the house, washers, and an outdoor seating area to stargaze. Hosts were friendly and responsive with lots of good information. A couple of tips; it’s remote and off the beaten path…you have to go down 3 miles of bumpy dirt road but it’s worth it (you are in the country and there are lots of dirt roads). Also, relax and enjoy the hilly, mountainous scenery, but be aware of your surroundings because you may see some cool wildlife! On our final day, we saw a bear walking down the trails behind the house. He paid us no mind and it was wonderful to experience that.If you want a trip to Big Bend, this is a perfect location. We plan on coming back!!"
"Our stay at Casita de Chiles was absolutely incredible and became one of our favorite trips we've ever taken. Mark and Michelle were amazing hosts and truly made the experience special. You can tell they genuinely care about both their guests and their property.
The location was exactly what we hoped for — peaceful, remote, and completely off the beaten path. We were surrounded by breathtaking views of the Christmas Mountains and spent our nights under some of the clearest skies we've ever seen. The stargazing alone was worth the trip.
The wildlife experience was unbelievable. During our stay we saw deer, quail, javelina, Mexican cardinals, bats, scorpions under UV light, a tarantula, and even a rattlesnake. It truly felt like stepping into another world.
A major highlight was the excursion with Mark and Michelle. We spent about 6.5 hours covering roughly 52 miles exploring Terlingua Ranch. They showed us incredible canyons, beautiful views, and hidden places we never would have found ourselves. It felt less like a tour and more like spending the day with friends.
And we can’t forget Chula, who completely stole our hearts.
If you want peace, adventure, wildlife, dark skies, and a chance to disconnect and recharge, this place is perfect. We’ll be talking about this trip for a long time and hope to return."
