Top 3 of our vacation rental experiences! Great location for access to all things Big Bend. Owned by artists, the house is pure delight, furnished with folk art/outsider art plus lots of thoughtful and whimsical details. Complete with books about the west; a record player with a solid inventory of Willie, Merle, Emmylou, Patsy, Kris, & other country greats; plus a nicely outfitted kitchen. Bathroom also well-stocked. Beds were incredibly comfy. Hammocks perfect for stargazing. A quick 7-minute drive away from the Chihuahuan Desert Nature Research Center, and just a little longer if you're headed to Davis Mtns State Park. 30 minutes to Marfa. Highly recommend the Fossil & Folk House!
