About this house rental
Join us for a relaxed stay in a comfortable private adobe home, with a secure enclosed yard. It is situated on Comanche Mesa near Lajitas, and has expansive views of the Sierra Rica mountains in Mexico, Mesa de Anguila in the National Park just to the south, and Lajitas Mesa to the north.
The house is a locally-owned, fully-equipped family home. We have all homely amenities to make it a great base for enjoying a family vacation and for exploring the Big Bend area.
We do not use a management company.
Traditional, unpretentious and well-equipped, it has power and water, climate control, wifi, a fully equipped kitchen, gas barbecue, two outdoor porches, and an enclosed yard. We sleep up to 8 in 3 bedrooms with QUEEN beds, plus a double fold-out sofa bed in the living room, and there are two bathrooms.
Ask about our discount if you only need 2 bedrooms, to sleep a max of 6 people. The third bedroom can be locked off from the rest of the house.
This was my French mother-in-law’s much loved home, hence the mid century furniture, and you will notice some French decor, including her intriguing handmade tapestries.
We have stellar views in every direction, and the dark skies of the Big Bend allow spectacular nightly stargazing. The front and back verandahs invite you to hang out, and the enclosed yard means you can let your dog - or child - roam free. Dine inside or out, using our fully equipped homely kitchen and propane BBQ on back porch.
We are only a five minute drive to Lajitas Golf Resort on the banks of the Rio Grande, bring your clubs! There is also a convenient river access five minutes away (just west of Lajitas on Hwy 170) if you wish to take yourselves down to the river for a swim or a paddle. For other activities, based in and near Lajitas are two options of horse-riding stables.
There is easy access to hiking and biking in the Big Bend Ranch State Park with the BBRSP headquarters, the Barton Warnock Centre, just a quarter mile from the house. We are 15 minutes to the restaurants and sights of Terlingua, and only 30 minutes to the west entrance of the Big Bend National Park.
