About this house rental
Welcome to Dell City Texas and the Ranger Guest House. Our single level home features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom to rest after a long day of hiking the nearby Guadalupe Mountains National Park or Salt Flats. This is a rustic house, built in 1955 for farm workers. It is simple with no frills. If you don't like dust, this isn't the home for you. We are located in the Chihuahuan Desert off a dirt road in Dell City so be prepared. We offer a full kitchen, warm showers, and soft beds.
The space
Dell City is a very small farming community located about 30 mins west of the Pine Springs Visitor Center of Guadalupe Mountains National Park. It is the closest city to the park.
The home features warm water, fresh towels, comfortable beds, and a place to relax. We do have WiFi and a smartTV to watch all your favorite streaming services. This is a pretty remote area so the WiFi isn't always the best but should work for streaming one device, emails, etc.
The kitchen has a gas range, fridge, microwave, toaster, and everything you should need to make a meal.
We have three window AC units. Most of the summer they keep the home pretty cool but during certain periods of August and July it can get a little warm. It is still comfortable though.
Guest access
Guests will be given an access code for a lockbox and will have full access to the home and property.
Other things to note
Before you come you should know a few things about the area.
While there are a couple of very small seasonal stores in the area along with a gas station, you should stock up on what you need prior leaving El Paso or Carlsbad, including a full tank of gas.
There are a couple of really amazing restaurants in the area but hours very so best to call ahead or plan to make meals at the home.
We are located in the Chihuahuan desert, so if you mind dust, this isn't the place for you.
Please be respectful of neighbors and keep quite after about 10 PM or so. No smoking or vaping of any kind in the home.
We have a guest book at the home that I would ask you to review when you get there. There are some more resources in it.
Plan to check out by 11:00 AM on the day your reservation states as late check-outs will be charged accordingly.

Confusion with the Expedia provided contact number for the host. The house wasn't clean and we couldn't find toilet paper and dish detergent and sent note to host but didn't hear back because the number Expedia provided wasn't one he had.
Once we sent a note to him on the email string he sent he, Shawn, was very responsive. Unfortunately that was once we checked out.
Only concerns were inability to find things (toilet paper and dish detergent) and house had pet hair and bugs on the floors so cleanliness was an issue. Would be nice to include washcloths, sheets on all beds and hand towels in bathroom.
Host is remote so he has to rely on local help.

Home was clean and inviting. View of the mountains was very nice. We were visiting Guadalupe Mtns and Carlsbad Caverns National Parks and this was perfect

This is a great place with an even better host. Shawn is on point and has a super solid place to stay. I will return!

This property was lacking of any amenities. No bottled water, no coffee, no tissues...I could go on. We may be spoiled, but, honestly, we have stayed all over the world in vacation rentals and this was by far the most lacking of a single amenity. If you are used to this type of basic accommodation, and dont expect a couple small bottles of water and some coffee to make morning coffee..then, this may indeed be a good fit. The air worked well, the house was clean, it had all the bare basics.
