Two bedrooms:
- 1 bedroom downstairs with a queen sized bed.

Full bath with rain head shower.

WIFI - There is wifi at the house.
Some views of the Davis Mountains from the property and from upstairs.
Courtyard with distant mountain views and a fun small soaking tub (this is a handmade, “cowboy”, rustic outdoor tub with both hot and cold water.)
Comfy chairs inside can be moved outside for wonderful star viewing.
The historic Paisano Hotel, Marfa Book Company and galleries in the center of town are a 3 minute drive away, though many guests enjoy walking to downtown, about 20 minutes. Several fun restaurants are walking distance, less than 5 blocks away.
A few minute's walk from the Cemetery Merced at the end of the street, Convenience West BBQ and The Water Stop. That area is high on the western edge of town, a nice place to watch the sunset, with nice views of the ranch lands and plenty of distant mountains. The railroad runs though Marfa. You will see the train from the house back yard and from upstairs. Please read what every other homeowner in Marfa has written about the train. It is the reason there is a town in the middle of the desert.
You will interact with me when booking the property - I'll be happy to answer any questions you might have in advance of your visit. At the property, you'll let yourself in, and will have phone numbers for the house manager who will be able to troubleshoot if you happen to need assistance during reasonable hours of your stay, not at 1:00 am. Please keep in mind, this is a website which offers people's homes for rent. This is not a hotel with 24hr concierge service.
PETS - Guests must get prior approval before bringing any pets to property. Dogs under 50 lbs are more than likely to be ok'd by home owner. Pet owner is totally responsible for any and all clean-up and will be charged for any damages.
Due to the city wide "burn ban" which is in effect, there are no outdoor fires allowed at this time.
Check-in time is 4:00 pm unless we have guests departing the same day as your arrival at which time check-in will be 5:00 pm.
As a concerned homeowner, I have implemented strict cleaning and sanitizing procedures for my house. We want to assure our guests that every precaution is being taken by our cleaning team to provide a safe, relaxing and comfortable stay in Marfa. We ask that all renters please adhere to social distancing and wearing masks when entering public spaces within our area.
Renters must check with VRBO for details on any refunds due to Covid-19 virus cancellations. Not all reservations are eligible for full refunds.
